tidal (Levi x Reader)

73. snowdrop

"Y/N the tailor has arrived," Petra bounded into the office, causing Mr. Squid to startle from his place on Levi's desk.

OH YAY

"Have fun," Farlan grumbled, not bothering to look up from the mound of paperwork he was dealing with.

I'M SO SORRY

I'LL GET YOU SOMETHING 2

AND ILL FIGHT LEVI TO GIVE YOU A RAISE WHEN HE COMES BACK

"Good luck," I shot him an apologetic glance before leaving with Petra, Mr. Squid darting between our legs while we walked.

HE'S GOING TO NEED ALL THE LUCK HE CAN GET

"Kuchel is waiting with Nifa-" Petra talked quickly, clearly excited. "I heard that she rushed to come here as soon as she got word from Farlan- it sounds like she's been waiting."

SHE SOUNDS WONDERFUL BUT </3 IDK WHO SHE IS

u r so clueless it hurts

I WAS LIVING IN PRACTICAL ISOLATION FROM 18 YEARS CUT ME A LITTLE SLACK

"Nifa is the same person who designed your wardrobe- she did an amazing job considering how little forewarning the Duke sent before your arrival!" Petra continued to ramble on.

OK WELL THAT EXPLAINS THINGS KINDA

SHE'S TALENTED

I'LL HAVE 2 THANK HER

"That must've been really difficult-"

...

DID LEVI PAY HER WELL ENOUGH ???

I HOPE SO .

"She has an entire team at her disposal," Petra seemed to pick up on my worries. "You're very lucky Y/N- she's picky about who she designs clothing for, I hear that she's even declined members of the royal family."

OK MY BIGGEST QUESTION ABOUT THIS WHOLE SITUATION IS HOW YOU KNOW ALL OF THIS ???

OR RATHER

HOW I DON'T KNOW ALL OF THIS ?? BC IT SEEMS LIKE COMMON KNOWLEDGE BUT IT'S ALL NEW TO ME

I ALSO FEEL LIKE IM MISSING AN OPPORTUNITY BY USING THIS TO MAKE CLOTHES FOR LEVI

IDK IF HE'LL EVEN APPRECIATE THEM .

I MEAN THAT DOESN'T RLLY MATTER

YOU'RE RIGHT THE IMPORTANT PART IS PUTTING HIM IN CLOTHES THAT I WANT TO SEE HIM IN <333

YES

DRESS UP

"I'm sorry if I kept you waiting," I entered the room- one of the ones that Levi and I had explored late that one night.

it is so much less ominous in the day time :/

"No need to apologize, I am honored to be of service to you Duchess Ackerman," a woman with short red hair greeted me.

HELLO

"It's a pleasure to meet you Nifa," I beamed, "thank you for my wardrobe."

-HOW MUCH WERE YOU PAID FOR IT ?

WAS IT WORTH IT?

WHAT EVEN IS MINIMUM WAGE HERE-

IS IT LIVEABLE ???

IS LEVI STARVING HIS SUBJECTS ???

"Do you like it? Is there anything you would like adjusted?" Her eyes lit up at my compliment, "I understand we're here for something related to the Duke but please, if you have anything you'd like I would love to have a hand in it."
