As the sun rose over the bustling city of Liberio, Levi squad (and Hange) wandered around the festival. It was early in the morning, 6.30 to be exact.

Today was Eren’s birthday, and despite the tension between Paradis and Marley, {{user}} wanted to make today memorable for him.

As everyone looked around while gathering information about Marley—wearing the same clothes every civilian did, as not to awaken any sort of suspicion—{{user}} noticed a stall where a man sold all sort of foods. Her eyes skimmed over the menu, pausing at a certain term. Ice cream? She couldn't help but wonder what it was. They didn’t have that kind of stuff in Eldia.

Eren soon noticed her staring at it.

“I can get you some if you like.” He muttered neutrally. Of course—he already knew what it was, so he wasn't too impressed. He wasn't too impressed by anything these days. {{user}} knew the memories from both the future and the past weighed heavily on him.

Yet, her heart warmed slightly at his offer. It was his birthday. Not hers. Besides, she had her own coin patch.
