Humanity's Strongest

  If you’re implying that I’ve been stalking you, you’re wrong. I guess what I meant to say was that I’ve heard of you…and seen you around. Like once though. (/he shrugged) I’m no stalker though. Ah, Levi. My name’s Seunghyun. Nice to meet ya. Can I still call you heichou though? Or would you rather me just address you as Levi? And…hmm…(/tilting his head, he looked up towards the left trying to think of something to talk about, not wanting to waste the other’s time) Well, I was wondering, what’s it like being a lance corporal? 

I'm not sure why you would want to call me Heichou instead of my actual name but do as you please, I can't stop you. ['He rolled his eyes, clearly losing interest in the conversation, his arms crossed irritably before he froze, his shoulders tensing a little before his gaze shot up in an almost accusatory manner'] You don't even know me how the hell would you know what a lance corporal is or even get the idea that I was known as that. 

  "Tch." Her fists were balled and she was basically ready to punch him in the face. "He’s family. I would’ve done fine without you. But then you had to come in and be all high and mighty. You’re not always needed, Levi."

Levi could safely add pissing Mikasa Ackerman off in less than two minutes to his list of talents. "Family?" He honestly didn't believe those words. "Must explain why you cling to him like he's the love of your life. I gurrantee you that your stupidity and tendency to get ruled by your emotions would have just added you and Jaeger to the listen of victims."

  —brats like you always fuck up. And with that the scared expression on the boy’s face softened and his eyebrows knit together, a small flash of anger evident on his face just for a moment. It was rare for Sehun to grow angry but he did not appreciate such crude language. Normally he would let the other yell at him and blame him; however he was not letting that happen this time.  Taking a deep breath in order calm himself, he spoke slowly so he could get his point across with limited stuttering. “I… I do not have any money to give you.” It just then hit him that he was much taller than the other, and that gave him a small sliver of confidence. “I can pay for you to make copies of your work… If it is important, I-I cannot imagine that you wouldn’t have the documents saved elsewhere.”

Levi's eyes didn't miss it, they were much too sharp, honed after many years, to not catch the flash of anger, his eyebrows drawing closer together and his facial expressions hardening. Despite his current annoyance with the boy he didn't particularly wanted to provoke him. He was no stranger to the fact that his language and harsh nature could easily set somebody off but he had had his fair share of experience with that as well. Levi wasn't particularly fond of the stuttering but he kept his berating comments to himself and he rolled his eyes. "I do have extra copies but you've just cost me something called time." It was a blatant lie to say that he valued his time since he seemed to have an over abundance of it but honestly, he wasn't the fan of making multiple trips to complete a task. He was well aware of the fact that this kid was probably one of the ones who would have guilt tug at their conscience until they had repaid a debt. Perfect. Levi always loved people like that. "You still need to repay me, do you not?" 

(/he straightens out his posture as he feels a shiver run down his spine and rubs the back of his neck) Uh, well, you see, I’ve seen you around maybe once or twice before and I remember you being called Heichou so yeah? (/he shrugs sheepishly) I mean, I don’t know your name and I know you’re in a higher-up position so I thought it’d be rude of me to yell “Oi! You over there! I want to talk to you!” 

['He was rather displeased with the current trend of tall people looming over him but his dark gaze was usually enough to put them in their place'] You've seen me around once or twice? ['He wasn't aware that he had followers since he spent most of his time hidden away in the nooks and crannies of the city where he knew he wouldn't be bothered'] That's fucking creepy but I suppose I'm not supposed to judge anyone else's hobbies. ['He stares at the other, not letting the slight confusion show outwardly, how did he even know what that title had carried in the first place?'] It's Levi and if you're so desperate to talk to me, you better start now and hope what you have to say is worth my time. 

  "Have you ever heard of stand-up comedians who actually mock their innate bad conditions? I could think of one who has a leg which is larger than the other right now, so it could be humorous, yes." Another hum left his lips, writing down some more lines on his notebook and smiled to the stranger as the question was rudely asked to him. "I haven’t ever seen you in my life either, but I’m writing a book on short people and I thought interviewing some of them could be interesting. I could send you a copy when it is published. It will even have an extra coloring section, which you might find amusing. Puzzles, riddles, you name it. I’ve heard kids are into that." Another smirk was granted to the other one, lifting a brow as he expected for his response eagerly.

He wasn't going to admit to the tall and gangly boy that he had no idea what the hell a stand up comedian was. He was pretty sure he wasn't one of them because he was very certain that he was not a comedian or funny in the slightest. His eyes tracked the pen's progress across the pages. "You're...writing a book on short people? That's a stupid ass idea and my height isn't something I appreciate being mocked." His eyebrow twitched slightly when the other had the nerve to imply that he was something akin to a child, rolling up his sleeves casually. "I do not recall being a kid in fact I'd wager that I'm older than you, brat. Respect is something you clearly haven't learned." Levi always thought that pain was the best way to teach somebody discipline but he wasn't entirely sure this was the right time and place to try to teach him any discipline or respect.

But I didn’t mean those kind of kisses… [/he blinks down at the candies a few more times, confused  to why the other seemed content to play jokes with him.] … I can’t tell if you’re kidding, or if you really don’t understand what kind of kisses I mean..

You take me for an idiot? Of course I was joking. It seems as if my sense of humor is not very well received in public. ['He shrugs, not moving to take back the candies since he wasn't entirely lying when he said he wanted to get rid of his supply of the little chocolates'] You seem even more stiff than people say I am

I don't either but you were the one that sounded so desperate for kisses so you're keeping them. ['He pushes the man's hand back in refusal of the candies'] It seems as if everyone's been wanting kisses lately and I still have an over abundance of them from Christmas so it's been rather convenient for me, darling. 

  Although she didn’t like his attitude even one bit, she had to agree on that. She would rarely lose her cool anyways, but when it comes to Eren.. “I could have handled her on my own, Levi. If it wasn’t for you butting in I would have killed her.”

"No you wouldn't have. Both you and your boyfriend would be dead if I hadn't busted my ankle and saved you but I doubt any of us would want that outcome." Levi scoffed a bit. "I haven't found anyone else besides that potato girl in your squad so even though there aren't as many threats, I doubt I'd want to lose you that would put me in a bit of a predicament."

  Hey! I don’t look like a skeleton. {`she nods after much thought, watching you quietly, wondering if you were one of those people that didn’t like being touched. she shrugs subtly, as she raises a brow slightly at the man who started swearing again} You really like profanity don’t you? Well, I already said sorry and I take it you’ve accepted my apology? Which means that’s the end of that so lighten up, Mr.— {`she pauses for a bit, realizing she didn’t actually know the stranger’s name} Mr…? {`she says in a questioning tone, hoping you would answer}

It's not that I particularly like it it's just a habit that I'm not entirely inclined to get rid of. I wouldn't change my way of speaking for someone else. ['He raised an eyebrow at the girl's words, his arms still crossed in front of his chest'] Lighten up? I wasn't aware that I was very tense in the first place. ['Of course this was one of the people that would run into him and expect to be best friends for life but he figured it was no harm in just giving out his name'] You can just call me Levi, I suppose. ['He didn't bother asking for her name in return']
