Ship: Oluo Bozado x Petra Ral
Word Count: 2242
Prompt: Person A and Person B are trying to hide their relationship, but it turns out everyone already knows. 🔐
“Stop squirming-” Petra's firm hand met with the top of his head. “It's your own fault for getting hurt, you're better than this, Oluo.” He couldn't do much more than laugh. If Petra knew that he had gotten caught up only because he worried for her in a moment of losing track of her, she would have given him the beating of his lifetime, that much he was sure of.
Her hands now laid upon his bare chest, stroking loving and caring circles over a bruise he gained not long ago. “Don't you go dying on me, Bozado. I will bring you back from the grave just to kill you myself.” Despite the smile that so beautifully painted her face, anyone who knew her would have been able to see the worry that hid underneath her stern eyes, and even more easily they would have pointed to the twitch at the corner of her lip and out her worries to whoever they desired. The way she used his name however, made Oluo feel much more scolded than cared for.
And he loved it.
“You look like a beat up apple, did you know that?” Those gentle and loving touches that Petra had offered him, soon grew a bit more malicious. “Squishy like one too.” She teased him as she pressed her finger against a swollen wound across his ribs. Then as the poor man whined, the woman's gaze would soften once more, compassion washing over her like waves at a beach. “You are an idiot, you know that, right?” She knew very well what had distracted him, what had caused him to lose control over his gear, she had seen it happen.
Good thing they weren't outside of the walls when it had happened.
Perhaps in order to apologise for causing him unnecessary pain, Petra leant in to place a warm and caring kiss upon the other’s collarbone. She had been sitting on his lap for nearly an hour now, taking care of him, and simply spending some time with him; it wasn't often they had down-time like this. “Oh, now you're red like one too-!” Her breath was so warm against his skin, causing goosebumps to form all over him, a shivering breath escaping through his gritted teeth.
“Says you-” His hand had reached up, and between his thumb and pointer finger he would capture some of her hair, rubbing it between them as he admired the beautiful ginger color. “At least I stop being red once you stop playing with me~”
She had been about to shoot back, but as she heard footsteps coming in their direction, she had quickly pushed the stupid grinning man back, more so pushing herself up. “Eld!” Her hands were so desperately correcting her shirt as she turned to face her comrade.
“He's waiting, are you two coming?” It didn't seem the eyes of Mr. Second in command had even registered the state of the woman before him. “Is he.. okay?”
Turning back to face the man she had pushed to the ground, Petra's eyes dulled to seeing him once more squirming about beneath her. “What-” While pushing the last piece of fabric from her shirt back into her pants, she noticed exactly what the other man had seen only moments before. “Swallow it, I dare you-” That tongue of his would be the death of him, of that much she was certain.
“Okay, come here.” Grabbing him by that bruised shoulder of his, she pulled him back up and forced his mouth open to let her see. “Is it too big for your mouth, or are you just seeking my attention?” Her hands were so warm on his cheeks, gently caressing his cheekbones as she guided a thumb towards his sore tongue, running the sensitive finger over warm scarred tissue. “You'll be the death of me.”
His drool pooled up within her palm as she held him, but she didn't mind it one bit. “There.” Leaning in, the woman placed a playful kiss on the bloody muscle. “Man up, we gotta go.. before they start getting any stupid ideas-”
They didn't leave the room together. Instead Petra who was already properly dressed took the lead and went out to locate the rest of the group. Oluo left some time later, arriving just in time to meet the others for the get-together held over warm cups of tea.
Neither Petra nor Oluo however, managed to pay much attention to what was being discussed. Sat across from each other their gazes never strayed from the other. Even through similar expressions however, their minds wandered in much different directions. One longing and caring, the other loved and content.
“Or what do you think, Oluo?” The voice that brought the man out of his hazy mind was the one of Günther. “Yeah, sure-” He had to forcefully peel his eyes off of the beauty before him. “Really, you would? The size wouldn't be a problem for ya?” Eld had added. What those two were talking about was lost on the blonde until the laughter emerged and he managed to put two and two together. “No! No I would not sleep with a - no, no matter how hot it might be!” Even she was laughing at him. As he attempted to defend himself from the friends piling up on him, she so sweetly covered her lips and hid her laughter from the men. “Levi?!” He shot his captain a look of despair, only to be met with a shrug, a scoff, and a simple phrase. “You said what you said.”
Two cups of the warm soothing liquid later, they would disband once more. Eld helping an also hurt Günther to his bed, Petra walking Oluo to where he needed to be, and Levi leaving off to do whatever it is men like him do in the dark of the night.
“There we go-” She whispered as she pushed him down onto his mattress. “How about the next time you decide to take a crash, you leave others out of it~?” She had shot a glance in the direction of Günther. “I've never seen Eld as pissed as he looked when he saw Günther all tangled up like that..” Oluo had never before received such a passionate scolding.
“Yeah, you're right-” The woman had looked about as he acknowledged her words to him. And before he had managed to say another word, she had glanced over to their already sleeping comrade, and swiftly moved down to interrupt whatever words were to leave Oluo's mouth. Her warm lips met with his bruised cheek, causing him to flinch a bit, and look after her all baffled as she ran off and away.
Sleeping, she thought. The dark haired man turned towards Oluo as the flustered woman ran off, offering him a soft laugh. “You know we know, right? No reason running around like teens scared of getting caught.” Oluo had been just about to close his eyes when the words finally registered to his currently scrambled brain. “What was that?” He had asked rapidly, he thought, but the only reply he received was the soft snoring of the other.
So exciting, so liberating even! For once in her life she managed to push away her worries and greet the world with a bright smile. Sprinting down the halls of their current residence, Petra's joyful voice echoed just as loudly as her footsteps. She simply couldn't contain It! Every sneaky kiss placed on his cheek, every time she grabbed his hand a little tighter, offered him a quick squeeze before rushing off in another direction. It filled her heart with such unimaginable joy, one she had missed out on in her early teenage years, one she had missed without even knowing what it was she lacked.
Levi’s watchful eyes almost catching them as she offered that man her love. Eld, again and again walking in on them in compromising or embarrassing situations. And Günther, forever a killjoy, offering those well knowing expressions of suspicion. The excitement was almost killing her! She had no reason to hide it from them, sure they would tease the pair relentlessly, but surely they'd be met with nothing but love had they told their comrades of their relationship. Yet the payoff was too good to let go of. For how long could she keep this game going? She was certain Oluo would slip up once, out them. Just as she almost had once, when she had been about to call him hers, right in front of Erwin himself. She always imagined their commander one for the gossips, the whole branch would surely have known within the end of the day.
She could not mess this up before Oluo did.
Erwin might have understood, it would have come as a shock to anyone if he did not. The look he had given Petra before his attention was once more put to Levi, was however not noticed by the small woman.
Yet no gossip ever reached the ears of anyone, as far as either Petra or Oluo were aware at least.
She exhausted herself running through those long halls, thinking about what fun she would have in the days to come. More so, Petra thought about finding the time to be in his arms once more, always strong, always protective, yet somehow, always uncertain, As if he was scared of touching her.
Assuming her place in the sleeping chamber, Petra had expected to hear the heavy snoring of tired men. Instead she was met with the total of them, aside from Levi of course, sitting on Oluo's bed around a lantern. Damn fire hazard, really.
“Wait, you are trying to tell me you didn't realize?” Eld's voice was shushed, yet accusatory.
“Be nice.” Günther's voice was much kinder than the other.
“I think you guys are imagining things-” Oluo sounded like he was about to start whining like a baby. “We aren't dating.”
Adorable, she thought. Even when met with confrontation, he was standing his ground.
If only she knew.
“Did you crash into Günther so hard your brain twisted up in there?” They had attempted to convince him for a while now, and Eld was starting to look more and more distressed.
“Hm..” the priorly mentioned man took the moment to feel his body ache, remembering the fear that had struck his heart as Oluo's whole body came crashing down upon him from above.
“You guys must be made all wrong.” Oluo defended himself. “She's too good for me, you guys know that just as well as I do. I mean, I'm great!” His voice broke the status of a whisper, causing the other two to look to their side in apparent panic. It was dark over there though, Petra could not tell what hid in the darkness. “But she? She's more than great, she's.. amazing, like a goddess sent down from above.”
“You're a goddess sent down from above, crushingly so.” Günther groaned. A small smile painting his lips as he witnessed Eld choke back laughter.
“I said I'm sorry-” The goddess man from above whisper-groaned. “Got distracted.”
“We know.” This affirmation came in unison from the two others. Followed by equally synchronized nods.
“Your girlfriend-” Eld had been interrupted by yet another “We aren't dating, not my girlfriend.”
Finally the woman decided to speak up. “Oluo?” She called to him, causing all three of them to jump. “It's alright, I'm pretty sure they got us figured out, they know.”
“Know what?” He had barely managed to finish his words before a pillow got thrown at his face, falling down upon his lap at the same speed the realization dawned upon the young woman. “You've got to be kidding me-” she whispered as she reached for yet another pillow.
The other men had already been amused when Günther realised that Oluo had been oblivious to his own relationship this whole time. The teasing and probing had started immediately. The guy really hadn't been running around hiding his relationship, no, he was as blind to it as a bat to the bright joy of the sun. Eld of course, had been far more direct in his teasing, but even then it didn't seem the younger man got it.
“You are trying to tell me-” she sounded angry. The two men who faced Oluo knew well to offer her the space needed. As she came closer, they both scooted back, not wishing to be in the path of her wrath.
She gripped her unknowing lover by the collar, her mouth open and ready to give him an earful. Instead he had interrupted her. “You.. like me?”
Above the flame, Petra grew all red, immediately letting go of.. her dumbass, and turning away.
In the silence of the room, the sound of a sleeping man finally reached their ears, and even those who knew of him were painted by surprise as they once more turned towards the darkness.
Deep within, far from the brightness of the fire, Levi sat with his arms crossed tightly over his chest. His breath was gentle, silent as a mouse. Even the crackling of the flame on Oluo's bed was enough to override him.
Sat on this chair, far away from where Petra would have ever thought to look for him, Levi slept with a content smile resting at the corners of his lips.
His dumbasses.
AN: @shibacosplay would like you all to imagine Oluo coming falling down as 'Ave Maria' plays in the background *in slow-motion*
I take a sip of my tea “hear me out” I say, “jealous eren / armin / levi / and erwin headcanons, i just want to give everyone want they want” i set my tea cup down then walk off, but i come back and say, “maybe oluo too cause some people are closeted oluo simps, they’re just too scared to admit it, like me” i add then turn back around and walk away.
... why am I laughing at my own request 🧍🏻
a/n: hi anon, this was hilarious and i cannot believe u simp for fucking oluo,, i’ll be honest he’s a pretty irrelevant dude and i don’t remember a whole lot about his personality but i tried real hard for you <3 u better come back to me as an emoji anon or something ok i wanna be friends
headcannons: how the aot boys get jealous
includes: eren jeager, armin arlert, levi ackerman, erwin smith, and oluo bozado (?)
t/w: nsfw 18+, angry sex, mild degradation, mention of impact play, breeding kink, some of the boys being awkward
eren jeager
he’ll do whatever it takes to make sure you know your his and only his
if eren sees someone flirting with you or being a little touchy with you, he will not hesitate to make a scene
like depending on how confident he’s feeling he might just walk up and grab your ass in front of the guy
but he’ll most likely just make a few snarky comments to scare the guy off
“hey babe, is this creep bothering you?”
“why the fuck are you talking to my girlfriend like that dude?”
so unafraid of confrontation it’s almost scary
eren’s the type of dude to question you about it too (kinda toxic but he has some insecurities ok)
“do you like it when other guys talk to you like that?”
“why didn’t you walk away?”
and then you’d go home and have semi-angry sex filled with lots of reminders that you belong to him
“you’re my dumb little slut, aren’t you?”
he’d slap your ass if you don’t say yes
“that’s right, no one else is ever gonna make you feel this good, baby”
and honestly he’s right
levi ackerman
levi’s real quiet when he gets jealous
he’ll watch from a distance with a scowl on his face but he won’t know how to approach the situation
it bothers him a lot that other men are flirting with you, but he truly doesn’t know what to say
he’s also kinda insecure, so he might convince himself that you like flirting with those other guys
he’d get pissed, annoyed, frustrated, embarrassed — and he wouldn’t know how to handle any of it
so he’d leave and go home
of course you’d see him leave and you’d be quick on his tail, meeting him at home and questioning why he’d left
“seemed like you were having a good time”
he’d be passive aggressive and make it obvious that something was bothering him
it would take some sweet talk and a lot of coaxing but eventually he’d admit to being jealous
you’d have to give him a lot of reassurance, both verbally and physically
remind him how much you love him, and only him
eventually he’d get over it and the two of you will have only grown closer from the whole experience
dating levi is hard work — he’s gotta learn how to understand his emotions and come to terms with them (and he’s not that great at it yet)
armin arlert
poor armin
he’s really not quite sure how to approach jealousy either
his little cheeks get red and he’s all flustered with anger as another guy flirts with you across the room
he’d probably consult a friend first (which is most likely eren)
“hey eren, do you think he’s flirting with y/n? should i do something?”
to which eren would obviously tell him to go make a scene (as we’ve already covered in his list)
he approaches you with a lot less confidence than his hotheaded friend would, but he tries his best
“h-hey y/n, can you come here for a second? i have something i need your help with”.
of course you immediately comply, walking away with him and asking him what he needs
he would embarrassingly admit that he was just jealous and didn’t like watching that guy get so close to you
you’d reassure him by giving him a big kiss in front of everyone, including whatever guy had been talking with you
he’d get flustered and his heart would beat out of his chest bc he hates all the attention on the two of you,,, but he’s so happy and relieved by your bold reminder that he’s the one you love
erwin smith
erwin approaches this like the calm, well-mannered individual he is
he gets irked when he sees another guy chatting you up across the room, his eyebrows knitting together
but he’s a gentleman, so he takes a deep breath and approaches the situation with complete professional poise
“hey honey, have you heard from the baby sitter lately? how are the kids?”
you’d flush with embarrassment, because the two of you certainly don’t have kids and aren’t even married either
the flirty culprit would get visibly uncomfortable with the knowledge that he was flirting with a married woman with kids, and he’d immediately spin on his heels and find someone else
erwin would chuckle to himself,, all too proud with his little stunt
you two would have crazy sex that night,, and he’d make several comments about how he wanted to actually have kids with you
“maybe i should fill you up and give you a baby, how does that sound?”
“gonna pump you full of kids, make you a mom and make you my wife”
whew,, daddy erwin
oluo bozado
oh god ok here we go,, (i watched youtube compilations for this anon, don’t say i don’t put in the work for u guys)
oluo’s kind of cocky, overconfident, speaks his opinion even when it’s not wanted — so when someone’s flirting w his girl he gets pretty heated
at first i think he’d shoot some dirty glances, because as cocky as he is he’s also kinda insecure and he wouldn’t know how to approach it
when he finally works up the courage to intervene he’d say some real awkward shit
“hey uh, this is my girlfriend you know”.
🤡 thats clown shit oluo
the situation would get so awkward; tension thick enough to cut
the two of you would uncomfortably leave the situation and you’d question his actions
he’d say some shit like:
“that asshole bastard was hitting on you!”
“stupid piece of shit thinks he’s good enough to talk to you. he’s not!”
you’d have to calm him down and remind him that you love him, all while trying not to laugh bc if you laugh he’ll just get more upset
honestly this is all a guess but i hope i did you well anon 🥸
Humanity finally manages to push back the titans and venture beyond their walls. Everyone is overjoyed, except for one stoic man.
A/N: This was written before any of the later seasons came out so it may be incorrect in places, I just really liked Levi even after only seeing the first season.
Pairings: None. Just Levi.
Warnings: sad, angsty, i made myself pretty emotional by writing this lmao, references to no regrets OVA
Finally. They had finally done it. After years and years of fighting, humanity had finally been able to venture past the three walls. After years and years of fighting, the titans had learned to be scared of humans. It was a victorious day for everyone, despite several soldiers having lost their lives fighting off the last of the titans.
Levi stood behind everyone else, lingering beside his horse. As soon as a glimpse of a golden substance had come into view, both Eren and Armin had sprinted away, screaming and yelling to each other. Mikasa had followed shortly after, calling out to the two of them.
“Sand!” Armin cried aloud, flinging himself off of his horse. He knelt down upon the foreign substance, gathering it in his hands. Eren dropped down beside him, a large, childish grin permanently etched into his features. He, too, scooped up some of the substance.
“Armin, look!” Eren immediately dropped the grains, pushing his body up. Levi watched as the younger boy took off once again, heading towards a large body of water. “The ocean!”
Eren threw himself at the liquid, his body completely submerged beneath the aqua water. He then emerged from the surface, choking and spluttering. Armin laughed loudly, though Mikasa was immediately asking if he was okay.
“It’s salty!” Eren remarked, his face scrunching up in a scowl. Armin quickly stood up, rushing over to where Eren now stood, his dark hair plastered upon his head. Mikasa hesitantly climbed off of her horse, before following her two friends.
Levi leaned back against a nearby tree, his eyes narrowed as he watched his comrades. Erwin sighed, heading over to where the raven-haired man stood. He placed a hand gently on Levi’s shoulder, causing Levi’s head to whip round. He stared back at the blonde-haired man.
“We did it.” Erwin whispered, turning his head to watch the others. By that point, most of the soldiers had launched towards the water. Sasha and Connie were splashing each other, shrieking loudly. Hanji was attempting to creep up on Eren, though her plans were quickly squandered by Mike, who had jumped upon her back.
Levi watched on as laughter rang through the air. But he couldn’t bring himself to laugh with them. He couldn’t even bring himself to smile. Levi didn’t feel he had the right to smile. If his closest friends couldn’t enjoy this beautiful moment with him, he didn’t want to smile.
“You deserve to be happy, Levi.” With that, Erwin left the male. He abandoned his horse, instead heading towards the vast expanse of glittering water. Even Erwin, a man that had always been so serious, was whooping and cheering as he splashed water towards the younger soldiers.
Levi sighed, turning his gaze upwards. It had been a long day. The sky had been a bright, cornflower blue when they had made their way through the wall that morning. Now it was fading from a pastel blue, to a violet. The violet then seeped into a cornflower pink, which soon became a crimson red. It was the perfect background to a perfect moment.
Yet Levi wasn’t smiling.
He sighed, placing a hand upon his forehead. His fingers were greeted by beads of sweat, which he quickly wiped away. After fighting and killing dozens of titans, Levi was glad to finally be able to relax.
“Oi, aniki!”
Levi froze where he was. The voice was painfully familiar, but he knew it couldn’t be true. It couldn’t be her voice. His hands slowly began to shake before him. Levi’s eyes instinctively widened as he lifted his head.
“What are you doing over there?” A deeper voice addressed him this time. Once again, Levi couldn’t believe what he was hearing. It couldn’t possibly be who he thought it was.
“Captain, you should join everyone!” Another female voice rang through the crisp air. Levi’s entire body was shaking as he stared ahead. Six, faint figures stood beside the shimmering ocean, their gazes all fixated on him.
Isabel. Farlan. Petra. Gunther. Eld. Oluo.
They weren’t supposed to be there. They couldn’t be there. But they were. All six of them were stood before Levi, their eyes shining and their mouths stretched into wide grins.
“Don’t just stand there, Captain.” Gunther spoke aloud, though his voice was soft as it reached Levi’s ears. His hair was being blown by the gentle wind. Levi felt tears rising in his throat. They stung him, but he had to hold them back. He couldn’t break now. Not when they had finally reached the end.
Levi felt his breathing becoming more rapid as he pushed himself away from the tree. He had to be closer to them. He had to be able to talk with them one last time. He wanted to hug Isabel and Farlan, to tell them how much they really meant to him. Levi wanted to tell them all how sorry he was for letting them down.
Without realising, Levi was stumbling across the gritty flooring. Sand flew up behind him and tumbled down around him, landing upon his clean boots. For once, he really didn’t care. His knees shook beneath him, but he didn’t care. He didn’t care that there was sand in his eyes, or that his hands were violently quivering at his sides.
He halted in front of them, his lips parted. There was so much that he wanted to say, but, now that he had been presented with the opportunity, he wasn’t sure how to phrase it all.
“Don’t cry, aniki.” Isabel whispered, outstretching a translucent hand. Her skin brushed against Levi’s cheek. It was only in that moment that he realised he truly was crying. Levi automatically placed his fingers to his cheek, only to find that they came away damp.
“You did a great job, Captain.” Petra told him, closing her eyes as she grinned widely at him. Levi was inhaling rapid, shaky breaths. His lungs were closing in on themselves. His throat had closed up, making it impossible for him to keep calm.
“We’re all proud of you.” Oluo said, gently clapping Levi’s back. Had it not been under such circumstances, Levi would have immediately snapped at him for ever thinking he was allowed to touch him. But he couldn’t bring himself to do anything other than whimper quietly.
Sobs began to rise in Levi’s throat. His knees suddenly gave out beneath him and he fell down, his knees contacting with the ground painfully. A sharp pain shot through his entire body. Then he began to wail aloud, suddenly feeling like a small child.
“Levi, you don’t need to cry.” Farlan’s soothing voice danced across Levi. The pale figure stepped forward, kneeling down so that he was the same height as the trembling, older man. “You succeeded. You did it. So go and be happy.”
Levi raised his head, though his vision was clouded by years and years of unshed tears. It was finally coming to the surface. Tears from every time he had felt pain were pouring out of him and dampening the ground below him.
Oluo smiled at the man, before turning on his heel. Eld grinned down at his captain, before doing the same. Gunther followed. The three men slowly walked away from him, their bodies growing fainter and fainter. By the time they had reached the water, they had disappeared once more.
“Thank you, Captain.” Petra’s soft voice echoed in his head before she, too, turned away from him. A choked sob escaped Levi’s lips as he clapped his hand over his mouth. It was too painful, even for him. Her small figure grew fainted, until she was no longer visible.
“No matter what, aniki, we love you!” Isabel grinned, her eyes glimmering with the hope that Levi had always admired. Her eyes were still so vibrant, even if she was a mere spirit. She glanced over at Farlan, who also beamed down at Levi.
“Don’t forget us.” Farlan breathed, before he slung an arm around Isabel’s shoulders. They turned on their heels, striding towards the ocean, in which Levi’s comrades had stopped. Everyone stared at the older man as he broke down, tears streaming down his cheeks.
Just as their bodies faded into nothingness, they turned. They flashed Levi another reassuring smile. And then, they were gone. Levi screamed aloud, no longer caring who was watching, or who heard him.
He felt as though his entire body was crumbling. It hurt him to see them disappear for a second time, but he was happy. Hidden beneath his endless flow of tears, he was smiling. Levi placed his hands upon the grainy surface, pushing his body upwards. He swayed dangerously, feeling light-headed.
“Heichou…” Eren was the first to speak up, his voice hesitant. He wasn’t the only one who was being weighed down by unwavering concern. Hanji, who usually managed to make a brighter situation out of everything, was smiling sadly.
Levi, the man who was so great at concealing his emotions, had finally broken down before them. But he wasn’t ashamed of it. With tears on his face, soaking through his clothes, and rolling down his neck, he turned his face upwards. A setting sun smiled down upon him.
And, for what felt like the first time, he smiled back.
Working on these reels is so fun and really helps me during a creative block 😄
Pause or take a screenshot to see which Aot side character is your mortal enemy!
P.s. if you are too heartbroken with the outcome, you can choose another prompt from the previous character reels ( e.g. roommate, work bestie, studdy buddy..)
