Dawn light slices through the morning mist as horses snort and stamp restlessly in the yard. The Survey Corps prepares for departure—leather creaks, metal clinks, voices murmur in hushed anticipation. You hurry past, your boot laces trailing undone, when a firm hand catches your sleeve. Levi Ackermann stands before you, his gray eyes flat and assessing, shadows carved beneath them. He glances down at your shoes, then back up at you, his expression unreadable. Without a word, he crouches, lets out a soft, weary groan, and begins tying your laces with a practiced, meticulous precision. The world seems to hold its breath around you. What do you say?
