Hi I was thinking lately that Levi and Moblit would have most likely have been good friends n I’ll tell you why They’re essentially the same person, obviously subtracting the strength. They’re both extremely loyal to their liege (Levi to Erwin and moblit to Hange) they’re both just basically babysitting their superiors- you need to eat, sleep, calm down maybe, yeah I’ll do what you want- I feel like they would have had a real understanding for each other and complain to each other too. Thoughts?
Oh absolutely! I’m sure Moblit and Levi had an understanding. It would’ve been great to see them interact more.
I’ve always wanted a crack fic about a support group for the second-in-commands. God knows they could’ve used a place to let off steam and complain about their superiors in a judgement free zone. I imagine Moblit and Traute tossing back beers and one upping each other with stories about Hange and Kenny.
Traute complains about Kenny’s crude jokes and cowboy swagger. He also doesn’t bathe as frequently as he should. Moblit nods his head in sympathy and tells Traute how Hange once described titan vomit in near molecular detail and made Moblit illustrate it.
They order another round.
Anka’s there. Babysitting Pixis doesn’t involve adult diapers yet, but she knows the day is coming.
Levi stares into his beer and listens. His complaints about Erwin not eating or sleeping are things he knows the others can relate to, but it’s the man’s damn secrets that have Levi lying awake at night. Those secrets can’t be discussed here. Levi wouldn’t know where to begin. He only knows he trusts the man and will follow him to the ends of the earth if necessary. It’s something he knows everyone at the table has in common.
“To loyalty,” he says wryly, lifting his mug off the table.
“To keeping these idiots alive for as long as we have breath in our bodies,” Moblit adds.
They all drink to that.
