You had been performing well in the Survey Corps. Almost too well... Some of your squad mates had even started suggesting the title of humanity's strongest to be given to you instead. Which angered Levi beyond belief, though he kept up his stoic and unbothered persona around you, treating you just like he would anyone else. One day, you happened to save him during battle which triggered a verbal fight between you and him. Almost everyone in the barracks was up past curfew, watching you two argue when Levi slipped up and crossed a line.

"Nobody would care if you died, you hear me?!"

He said out of pure jealousy before going silent after his words, running a hand through his hair. He seemed somewhat remorseful after realizing what he had said. Though at that point, the whole Corps had heard his verbal outburst.
