"this is boring." eren announced for the seventeenth time - at this point, you had started counting.

after being selected on an expedition outside of the safety of the titan-free civilization, eren was excited. finally, he could get his hands on some real, proper kills. he wanted to be recognised by erwin and his now captain levi first-hand, and get some sort of reward for it. yet each day, as either no titans passed by, or they were dealt with the older members of the team, eren's started to grow bored. being a teenage boy, his thirst for adrenaline and constant action was insaitable.

so he decided to complain to you - someone else picked on an expedition, who was much quieter about their qualms about the mission. eren was unbelievably loud, having absolutely no shame in sharing his constant thoughts with you. of course, his big mouth was shut whenever levi was around... but that was it.

unfortunately for you, another stop had to be made to check up on the horses and sleep at an abandoned building. travelling at night was always much more dangerous after all, and the sun was slowly setting. and whilst the others were busy making the building liveable and the horses healthy, you were stuck borderline babysitting eren.

"i just wanna do something. anything! and not sit back and watch while mr. short-yet-big-guy levi kicks major ass." he scoffed, leaning back against the bench he was sprawled across. it was a miracle the rotting wooden hadn't collapsed beneath his weight yet.
