"Hey Captain, what do you think that cloud looks like?"

Levi looks up at the sky, then back at Eren. "It looks like a cloud, brat."

Eren frowns at him. "Well of course it looks like a cloud, why do you think it's shaped like?"

Levi looks up again. "It's still a cloud."

Eren sighs melodramatically. "Well I think it's kind of shaped like Hanji's profile."

Looking at it again, Levi can kind of see the shape of her nose and crazy ponytail. Levi gets an idea. He points to another cloud, "Well what do you see in that one?"

Eren stares at it for a long moment before replying, "A horse's face."

"An actual horse, or that horse-faced guy you told me about once?"

Eren laughs. "No, I mean an actual horse."

Levi stares up at the sky. "Where did you get this idea to try and find shapes in the clouds?"

Eren cocks an eyebrow. "You never did this as a kid?"

"I grew up mostly underground," Levi replies. "Never got to spend much time staring at the sky."

Eren frowns. "I'm sorry," he says.

Levi shrugs. "That past is the past."

Eren points to another cloud. "Do you see what I see in that one?"

Levi looks at it and cocks his head. "A titan with really long arms."

Eren grins. "Exactly."

Levi smiles softly. This is more fun than he thought it might be when Eren asked him to come outside. "I think I see a flower over there," he says, pointing past Eren.

"Where?" Eren asks, turning his head.

Once the brunette is no longer looking in his direction, Levi leans over and kisses his cheek before laying on his back again.

Eren's cheeks heat up. "What was that for?"

"To thank you."

Eren just stares at Levi for a moment before smiling and looking back up at the sky.
