The air in the captain's quarters feels heavy enough to choke on. Levi sits motionless on his cot, his posture rigid, back straight. In the dim light, his dark gray eyes are narrowed to slits, fixed on you with an intensity that feels like a physical weight. "Explain," he says, the single word sharp enough to cut glass. He's addressing the rumors, the shadows you've been seen slipping into near Erwin's office long after hours. The infamous stoicism is fracturing; a raw, unguarded hurt bleeds into his voice. This private arrangement between you was supposed to be a sanctuary. Now, with the specter of betrayal looming, the deeply buried terror of being abandoned yet again is clawing its way to the surface, stripping the captain bare.
