This soup tastes so much better knowing that Sasha isn't eating it, Hanji thought as she ate her soup. She decided to annoy Levi as a pass time while she was eating her dinner by sitting at the same table as him. Plus, he needed some company. His table has been empty for a while since he used to sit here with his squad. She thought maybe she should strike up a conversation with Levi, but whenever she looked at him he was glaring at her with still untouched soup in front of him, like he was refusing to eat as long as she was in his presence.
"So, Levi," she began. "How are you today?"
"Fine."
"Do anything interesting?"
"Not really. Just paperwork."
"How are you coping?" She said softly, after a pause, as she scraped the bottom of her bowl. When Hanji looked over at Levi, she saw his eyes widen for a second before he looked even more depressed if possible.
He said, "I'm coping just fine."
"I'm assuming you read Petra's letters."
She saw his jaw harden. "Yes." He looked straight up at her with an angry expression. "Listen, why are you asking me this?"
"Because, Levi! I care!"
"Well stop caring."
"No," and she went back to eating the bread that came with the soup. "Anyways, wanna know what I did today?"
"Not really, but I'm assuming that I don't really have a choice on whether or not I'm going to know."
"I found this girl's diary and read it. She was in the squad that gave their lives for you so you could lure the female titan."
"Squad six. What was her name?"
"Her name was Jessica Lamprey. Ringing any bells?" She added on once she saw his face show some recognition.
"She was the asshole-y-not-asshole-y one."
Hanji was confused. "What? Who told you that?"
"Nothing, don't worry about it," and he took a sip of the tea he had before making a disgusted face and setting it back down. Eren was figuring out that no one could compare to the way Petra had made Levi's tea. "Tch, Jaeger needs to work on his tea making skills. In fact, he needs to work on all his skills."
"You know Levi, I'm surprised." He raised one eyebrow as if to say 'oh really'. "I just casually said that I'd invaded someone's personal privacy by reading their diary and you didn't even comment on it."
"Well, can you blame me? It seems like you invade Eren's personal privacy everyday. It really isn't that surprising when you think about it."
"Or maybe," and Hanji walked closer to where Levi was sitting to creepily whisper the rest of her sentence, "you did it yourself." She was only messing around with him, but he seemed to take extreme personal offense.
"Why would I look through someone's diary, shitty glasses?"
"Because you were interested."
"Where do you get these stupid ideas?"
"From my amazing brain obviously."
"That was rhetorical."
"It didn't sound like it."
"Shut up."
"No." She went back to her normal seat away from Levi.
"Hanji, you better not just leave that dirty bowl sitting on the table."
