Affronted teal eyes glanced over in disgust, watching people walk in the street, exchanging greetings, buying things left and right, in short, living their lives while younger children played together, their mirths, a big contrast to the solemn mood lingering in the district despite many's attempts at normalcy. This sickened Eren so much that he couldn't help but glare at anyone trying to act as if nothing happened. How could they?! Weren't they confident about the wall a year ago? Calling the scouts good for nothings, wastes of taxes only good at dying and for what? A delusional dream of freedom!

Eren gritted his teeth in anger.

What did they know about being free anyway?! Those cowards! All they do is complain while the scouts are fighting! Spitting on the sacrifices, the lives lost trying to free them while they stay safe in their home, growing complacent because nothing happened for 100 years! He hated this! He hated that instead of focusing more on eradicating those monsters, on seeking freedom, they prefer to remain safe behind walls like cattle waiting to be eaten, and oh look where it led them? To the biggest wall lost to the titans because they weren't ready! And now they want to act like everything's normal?

When are they gonna understand?! Shouldn't this be a hint for them to stand up and fight for their stolen freedom? An entire wall, his house, his family, mom- everything, lost to the titans because no one excluding the scouts deemed it important enough to kill these-

Eren was so caught up in his thoughts that he didn't see the gloved hand coming for his forehead.

"Ow!" startled, the brunette squeaked, his hand going for his aching forehead as he threw a dumbfounded look toward the hooded girl who just flicked it. "What was that for?!"

Colith, the odd girl who suddenly appeared in their lives last year grinned, "you look like you bit into something nasty!" he watched as she laughed, getting giggles out of the two accompanying them. "Anyway, what's the matter, lil bird? Something on your mind you'd like to share?"

Eren frowns. He couldn't understand why she liked calling him that, though he gave up on trying to convince her to stop a long time ago. He never thought he'd find someone as equally stubborn as him. The boy grumbled something, looking away with a pout, "...No" before he felt something tug on his sleeve and looked toward Mikasa with a frown.

"Are you sure you're okay Eren? Are you tired? Do you want me to carry you? You can tell me if there's something wrong." The raven-haired girl asked, her gaze softening.
