I once had this hc that Paradis had some really whack-ass superstitions that they all believed simply cuz this was Paradis and they were 100 years behind everyone else. For example, Connie grew up believing that people could not have babies without wearing Lucky Underwear to bed. Of course, everyone in his village believed this myth and so there were also little shops in the market that sold Lucky Underwear blessed by the Gods of Procreation.

We all know Eren believes in Storks and that Armin very much does not believe in Storks, but what about Mikasa?

She doesn't believe in storks, but she 100% would believe in Lucky Underwear and other such silly superstitions because yes.

Post-canon I can see her receiving a letter from Armin telling her about all of his travels and how *aherm* he's um, asked Annie to marry him and she's said yes and all of that. Mikasa immediately goes to the market in Shiganshina to buy PLENTY of Lucky Underwear to send to her beloved brother across the oceans because how else will he have children?

Not without being blessed by the Gods of Procreation 😔 She's 100% serious about this.

I felt the earth beneath my feet. Sat by the river and it made me complete.

Oh simple thing, where have you gone? I’m getting old and I need something to rely on.

So tell me when you’re gonna let me in. I’m getting tired and I need somewhere to begin.

I came across a fallen tree. I felt the branches of it looking at me.

Is this the place we use to love? Is this the place that I’ve been dreaming of?

Oh simple thing, where have you gone? I’m getting old and I need something to rely on.

So tell me when you’re gonna let me in. I’m getting tired and I need somewhere to begin.

And if you have a minute, why don’t we go. Talk about it somewhere only we know?

This could be the end of everything, so why don’t we go somewhere only we know.
