The Beauty of Flowers and Death (AOT X KNY OC)

Chapter 6: If I knew any Better

Jean Kirsten

"Your eyes keep drifting to a certain white haired girl, Jean." Connie commented when he caught me eying the girl that happened to be spending more time with the Squad Captains than us scouts

This morning at breakfast we were about to invite Yuriel into our table when Squad leader Hange beat us to it. To be honest, I'm still a little salty about it considering that we haven't gotten to talk to her all morning.

She somehow got a lot of things to do despite only being introduced to some of the Scout earlier. Reiner approached beside me, observing the silver haired woman talking to one of the Squad Leaders.

"It's silver." He commented, his hand on his chin as his eyes slowly drifted towards where Christa is and it ultimately stayed there until Ymir glared at him.

"Though however unique it is, it still won't defeat the beauty of Christa" He smirked getting him a hit on the shoulder.

"Stop fawning over Christa and help Eren with his stance, he's fighting Bertholdt and is very much losing."

"That, I got to watch."

We were currently continuing our training for the day, it's still better than doing chores given by Captain Levi. Like cleaning the hall, the window, the ceiling, every nook and cranny until it's sparkling like sunshine.

Remembering only those horrible moments makes me shiver in horror, just thinking about the next general cleaning gives me night terrors.

"Sasha, Can I trouble you for a second?" Yuriel called out, jogging to her with a snack on hand, probably to bribe her with it when things went south.

"Is there a problem?" Sasha replied that her smile was fixed with delight. Sasha's Blades were out as she was checking her equipment, Yuriel's eyes observed the gear for a moment before smiling back at her

"No, not really. It's just that the Commander asked for everyone to gather, could I trouble you to get your friends?"

"Aren't they also now your friends?"

"I'm not that close to them, I think it's better if you do it." One of her arms leads to rest on the handle of her blade which is strapped on her waist, Her hands disappearing inside the arms of the Haori.

"Oh, alright. I'll call them." She sighed, Yuriel laughed and pulled both her hands in hers, handing Sasha the snack she has on her hand which Sasha beamed.

"Thank you, I still don't know the layout of the land so this is much appreciated." She thanked before bidding her goodbye and going off to who knows where, probably with the Squad Leaders. It's like they won't let Yuriel out of their sight unless they know what damages she can do and how much of a threat she can be

There hasn't been an announcement to observe her skills in a fight yet considering this is just her first time stepping foot outside the room she's curled herself up in the past few days that she's been wounded

Until then, the Officials are probably on edge with her presence around. She gives off very soft and friendly vibes but you can't fully trust a person when you don't know the other side of them, and she has yet to show it to us.

Once reaching the stage where everyone is, I find it all packed. The commander was just announcing that tomorrow and today would be a training day considering that the next day there's nothing to do but clean

Thankfully most of the scouts are scared of captain Levi and his cleaning tendencies that they requested and pushed for a training day so that after the next day we'll only be able to get bed rest.
