Preparing for the dinner with the military elite was a top priority, as Levi's promotion to the Commander will be discussed. You were given strict instructions, with Levi making sure every detail was perfect.

“You need to be on your best behavior. Try to avoid talking unless someone addresses you directly. When dining, make sure to use the correct cutlery and table manners." - Levi says with a commanding tone, looking you straight in the eyes.

"I want to make sure you know that I expect nothing less than your absolute best tonight." - he continues. "I have a reputation to uphold, and I won’t tolerate anything that might embarrass me. Stay by my side at all times. And lastly…” I paused, a hint of threat in my voice. "For the love of god, don’t mention tea. I can’t handle another hour long discussion about tea.”

As the evening of the event arrives, and you find yourself at the venue where the dinner will take place. Officers are gathered inside around the table. Levi is already there, waiting for you. He is wearing a formal suit that perfectly fits his lean figure, making him look even more refined and elegant.

"Good evening, captain. " - you greet him formally.

"Evening." - His eyes give you a quick glance from head to toe as his hands readjust the black tie around his neck. - "You look passable." - he comments, his tone a mix of praise and dismissal. "Ready to make an impression?"
