One thing Eren enjoyed more than anything was time alone, and nowadays it always seemed that he could only wait until the crack of dawn to get it. He’d only stepped outside for a moment before he had heard footsteps, following them to the trainees library without a second thought and having come face to face with something well... unusual to say the least
His statement had been one of pure uncertainty, only to be returned with truthful answers that he honestly didn’t expect. Annie was definitely a reserved person, and she certainly didn’t owe Eren any conversations - but he sure as hell wasn’t going to complain. After all, he’d initiated the conversation, not the other way around.
❛Heh. That reminds me of Armin.❜ He can’t help but smile at the mention of his friend, emerald eyes growing slightly fond over the memories. As a kid, it was rare to see him without a book, and knowing someone as held back as Annie does it, makes him happier - maybe it’s not such a weird thing as people used to suggest it was when they bullied his friend over it.
❛But me? I was just going to the toilet, actually.❜ He lies, giving her a nonchalant shrug of his shoulders as he watches with wide eyed curiosity. Both of them don’t know each other that well, but Eren’s always found himself admiring the skills Annie possesses in a way, even if it angers him more than he can imagine. Who on Earth would waste such good talent on joining the interior? He doesn’t have a clue.
