I'm here to spread my propaganda around... here me out on Mr. Leonhart x Karina Braun

Ahhh Hiiiiii ally! How have you been?!

Lmaooo back at the Leonhart x Karina crack ship (or should I say... Trash Dad x Trash Mom?) Please do spread your agenda xD!

I hope you're well and I hope life isn't stressing you out too much.

I have a quick question....

IS ARMIN GETTING HIJACKED IN AWINATIG???

I was reading your introduction the other day and when explaining AWINATIG you said you're writing it because you just wanna see hijacked Armin... So yeah, now I'm scared 😃

you're so sweet, beloved!

i know it's been months (i'm so so sorry) but people like you being so patient is what keeps me coming back here.

now, on to serious business, is Armin getting hijacked?

Well, it's no secret I've always wanted to expand on that famous table scene where he looks absolutely deranged. It has kept me up in late hours, even during work, thinking of all sorts of things he would say if he were to get hijacked. Armin's words can comfort people but they could also just as easily cut and flog when he's at his worst.

Imagining him saying horrendous things he would never say to Annie haunts me at night. Imagining him recovering like Peeta equally destroys me.

JWHDIWNDIWJD THIS IS ARMIN

ASLKFAHAHSDLKDGHL this IS Armin!!!!

Boy decides he wants to be a girl dad the second they even talk about getting married - and listen, he's got plenty of experience being a girl-dad! He was mothered by Mikasa (affectionate) and he mothered Eren (derogatory). He's got all the skills down pat!

This is ambassador Jean, Connie and Reiner 😭

Reiner lost a fight against Annie and was dared to do this, Jean was dragged into it by Pieck and Connie owed Armin a favor

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA xD This is basically the Gossip Girls doing the Mean Girls dance! (Armin is also a gossip girl but he's sitting this one out cuz Annie won't let him embarrass himself like that.)

You just KNOW Connie's putting his heart and soul into it though! He's got all the hip sways and ass shakes and is basically the sexiest girl alive on stage, with Reiner coming a close second (the skirt looks great on him but he's a bit clunky with the moves cuz his massive boobs keep getting in the way #_#)

Annie isn't impressed cuz this was supposed to be a punishment but the idiot is actually enjoying this 🙃 wtf

Then there's... Jean who is... on his deathbed. Pieck thinks he looks great and even catcalls him like she should, but he's... mortified. Stiff as a board in his sexy santa girl costume. Barely moving. He could be a tree but he's a sexy santa girl. What did he do to deserve this? Why did he agree? What is wrong with the universe? Everything is cursed.

How do you feel about swiftie Armin??

Hi Ally!

Unfortunately I think I'm the wrong person for this question xD I'm not a swiftie, nor have I listened to any of her songs, so I don't know what Armin being a swiftie would entail haha xD

I think it might depend on the night, really, and how busy their brains (and days) are. If they're over thinking, of course they can't sleep, but Armin buries himself in his commander duties and forgets to sleep and Annie's terrified she won't wake up for another 4 years if she goes to sleep.

So do they both lie awake in silence staring at the ceiling until the sky is bright (unless Armin is working)? (they probably pretend to be asleep so the other one wouldn't notice and worry even thought they both know the other is awake)

ORRRR is one asleep and the other awake and grumpy over the fact they're gonna be groggy and tired all day tomorrow?

I'm interested to see your thoughts on this

Hi Ally!

Who falls asleep huh? Okay, so we're talking about a post canon time period after some years have passed.

Armin does strike me as someone who has very unhealthy sleeping habits, often staying up late into the wee hours on work and fine print. This can get to the point where he's driving himself to near-collapse and someone has to step in and drag him to bed. In such states, I think it's reasonable to say that as soon as his head hits the pillow, he's out cold.

On the other hand, if it's one of "those" nights when Armin's feeling very bad about himself, then sleep doesn't come well. He either spends the night tossing and turning in bed, or decides to put his mind to work on some papers. But let's say he's got a season off work and is more relaxed, then he probably sleeps well.

I have this personal headcanon that in a general, overarching sense, both Armin and Annie sleep really well with each other because of the feeling of comfort and safety each other provides.

As for Annie, now. If I'm not wrong, she wasn't asleep for all of those four years in the crystal. It was more like a state of constant paralysed wakefulness. Perhaps if she fears anything, it would be being unable to move and feel her senses, imo. So good sleep is something she really hasn't had for a long time. She'd actively crave it. That said, I think it's more likely for her to be the one who's more of an insomniac in the normal sense of the word, because she's spent so long not sleeping that she finds it hard to fall asleep now. Still, as time wears on, it becomes easier, especially once adapted to the certainty of Armin's presence next to her in bed.

Then there could be situations where both of them are relaxed and calm, but they stay up all night talking (well, Armin talks, Annie listens). Then let's say they've had a fight, in which case both of them are awake and unable to sleep because The Sad™ is too much, and both are left wondering if the other doesn't like them anymore and if they'll be left alone (dramatic, but hey that's how they are).

They could also be suffering from nightmares from the past, which would give both a reason to avoid sleep.

Happy belated birthday 🫶🫶 you're one of the kindest people I've met on here, I hope this year brings you nothing but happiness 💕

What do you think about aruani having pets?? What pets would they have, what would they name them, what would their dynamic as pet parents be, etc??

Hellooo Ally!!

As a mom of dog babies and cat babies myself, I LOVE the idea of Aruani having pets! Not only is it very cute to picture, but also the impact of having pets itself cannot be ignored. If we take their canon-trauma into account, then learning to care for animals and looking after them can be a deeply healing experience. Now if also say that the animals in question are abandoned/strays, and Aruani take them in, then it's a win-win situation for both sides. Watching a traumatized voiceless creature opening up, learning to trust, and wholeheartedly falling in love with Aruani, eventually growing strong and brave and absolutely mischievous and boisterous and carefree - can you just imagine what a beautiful thing thing that will be? In this journey, Aruani can also learn a lot about themselves, and overcome their issues, slowly.

Now for the rest!

I headcanon that they have a minimum of one dog and a cat. Annie would be the cat-mom, Armin would be the dog-dad. It would mirror their personalities pretty well too, lmao xD A kitty with a resting bitch face, and a loyal puppy with a perenially-wagging tail - that pretty much sums up their whole relationship.

For what they'd name them... probably something very silly. Considering these fluffballs will basically be their first children, it would be hilarious if they named them something absolutely unserious. Annie's love for sweets and cake probably makes itself apparent when she names her chonk of a kitty something random like Big Cheese. Armin, on the other hand, draws inspiration from his enriching reading experiences, and fixes their pup with an intelligent yet stupid name like Bark Twain (Bobo for short).

As for their parent dynamics! Annie would absolutely let their fluff babies do as they please. Does their cat want to smack every guest (Reiner, really, it's just Reiner. The cat doesn't like giant, pathetic losers) in the face when they come over for dinner? Cool. Does their dog want to steal the biscuit tin from the highest shelf in the kitchen pantry by leaping up on the counter? Cool. Do your thing, kids. Commit crimes.

Armin is a bit more disciplined. He makes sure they don't poop inside the house and scratch the sofa covers. That's not to say his heart doesn't melt into oblivion whenever they stare at him with their big, bright 'I'm-about-to-get-naughty' eyes. He loves to roll around on the floor with them, and lets them sleep underneath the sheets on the bed between himself and Annie.
