SEASON 1.

"Hey, Armin! Armin! Over here!" The childish voice that holds so much joy, just as the heart holds so much life, is heard from behind the camera. Armin is wearing sunglasses and a feathery pink boa, wrapped around his neck gloriously as he struts away from Eren, resembling a celebrity desperately trying to avoid the paparazzi that swarmed them like flies.

Armin even adds some flair, covering his face in feigned embarrassment.

"Armin! We would just like to ask some questions-" Eren says, the laugh that is threatening to escape his lips evident in his words. 

Armin flips his blonde hair with a huff, turning to face the camera with feigned reluctance, "Alright, if you insist,"

"Thank you, Armin. We're grateful,"

"Well get on with it. A celebrity like me doesn't have all day. I have scenes to shoot, interviews to attend, parties to host. Chip chop," He sighs tiredly, desperately attempting to suppress the smile that's growing on his lips like the sun rising over the horizon.

"Okay, so it's officially been a month since you've started filming. How does it feel? Is it going well?" Eren starts, bombarding him with questions.

Armin crosses his arms with utmost glamour, "Well, all the rest of the cast, who are complete amateurs when compared to me, are a little slow. I guess we're setting a pace or whatever, but they really need to learn how to hurry up. If they're going to share a stage with me, then they need to get on my level of expertise,"

"I agree completely," And the audience can clearly picture green eyes nodding eagerly as the camera shakes, "What are your relationships with the other cast members? I mean, I know it's hard to get along when your talent levels have such a huge difference, but I can assume you're making friends?"

Another heavy sigh, "Well, yes, I suppose a professional gets to know their co-workers or whatever. I think I have quite a good relationship with the main character, Eren? You know him. Short, green eyes, a little annoying, anger issues-"

"Hey, we're basically the same heigh!" Eren defends, breaking out of character for a second.

Armin waves him off, "Shush, you lowly paparazzi. Anyway, I'm sure a lot of you know about our similarities with the characters we play. I mean, Isayama was very nitpicky with his actors. Not me, though. He knew I was perfect for the role instantly, just like every role I receive. So, just like in the show, Eren and I have a promise,"

"Ooh, what promise?" Eren asks, though his tone suggests he knows exactly what.

Armin gives the camera a knowing smile, "We'll travel the world together,"

"Travel the world?" Eren urges like the good interviewer he is.

"Yes, though I assume someone who gets paid minimum wage wouldn't know what that's like," He pushes his glasses up, "But Eren and I already have plans. Once we get a break, we're going to Europe. Through our friendship, we've discovered we click, and hopefully, as our friendship progresses, we'll be able to visit every continent,"

"Even Antarctica?"

"Of course, you pleb!" He scoffs, flipping his golden hair, "Now, if you excuse me, I see my, uh, colleague, running toward me with an, uh, angry look on his face," And now a laugh is practically bursting to escape his lips.

Eren turns the camera, a quick flash of Levi and his menacing presence being shown before the camera quickly turns away, "Shit, it's Levi. Run, Armin!"

And through the blurry screen and the noise of fast-paced footsteps, most can decipher that they are indeed running. Childing laughs chorus through ragged breaths, whilst yelling that says something along the lines of, "Brats, what the hell are you doing? Get back here, you're on in ten- YOU BETTER GET BACK HERE-" is heard.

"How much... Money... Bets Levi's going to... Chase us around... The world?" Eren says while running.

"He'll chase us all the way to Antarctica!"
