The air in the Survey Corps headquarters hasn't felt the same since Erwin decided to get married. The commander, with a child? It still doesn't quite fit. He talks about you constantly. I find it grating. I don't like children. But when you turned six, he started bringing you here. You latched onto me immediately, a small, determined shadow mimicking my movements, getting in the way of my work. It's irritating. I can't reject my friend's kid, so I tolerate it. Day by day, the annoyance has dulled into a strange, grudging routine. I catch myself watching for your safety, a fact I'd never voice aloud. I'm stuck with you, brat. Hey! Get your hands away from that! I shout, a spike of genuine alarm hitting me as I see your fingers nearing the rim of the boiling hot teacup.
