Yay an update! it's an absolute miracle! I will seriously be surprised if people are still looking forward to updates from this story. I mean would have given up on it by now lol. Anyways, I'm going to be trying my hardest to get back to writing this. Still keeping it 'on hold' though as to not get anyone who might be interested too excited.

(Levi's POV)

I have been watching Eren's action carefully while we have been driving. He seems to be completely unfazed by the idea that he killed someone, well something, but it's still killing. It bothers me, and I didn't know if it was because he wouldn't remember what happened or he just didn't care. Most people will at least have some kind of reaction towards learning what they had done, but he seemed to pass it off as though nothing much happened. Maybe I just expect him to freak out; it's happened so much for me, but what is there for him to freak out about anymore? Just within this past week he has learned that he isn't even human, completely, and his best friends were killed. Maybe it isn't that big of a surprise he isn't too freaked out about this.

There was still no set destination, but we knew that we had to go somewhere where we can start processing everything. The angels don't seem to be a problem; which is more than I thought possible. Though it seems that they have their own agenda for Eren. It might be a good idea to learn what their plans for him are before we get too comfortable.

"Levi, is something wrong?" Eren asked in a hushed voice.

"What do you mean?"

"You look bothered by something. Is it because of me?" He kept his voice down. I don't know why; Hanji and Erwin would still be able to hear us. But as always when someone whispers to you it's almost impossible to talk louder than a whisper.

"It's this whole situation that's bothering me." I answered. It was true, that it wasn't just him that had me feeling more than a little unsettled, but it was mainly him. However, I wasn't going to bring that up around him. He probably wouldn't take it very well.

"But this is my fault." He seemed to be telling himself more than saying it to me.

"You can't choose who your parents are, and if they happen to be a demon or not." I tried to make him feel better, but it didn't seem to do much. He was spaced out.

"I guess. Are you-" Eren seemed to be thinking about how to word his question. "Do you think I'm dangerous now?" He finally asked. Should I lie and tell him no? If I do he can still get to my thoughts and figure it out anyways; maybe honesty is the best policy right now.

"I've considered you dangerous since we found out that you weren't completely human." I could sense Hanji giving me a glare through the rearview mirror. "But that doesn't mean that you are going to destroy the world or anything." I tried to finish on a happier note, but it didn't sound very convincing to me or to him.

"I see, I'm sorry to worry you." Was all that Eren said, and that was how the conversation ended. Hanji was still glaring at me every few seconds. What could I say that would make things less awkward? If I don't try and fix things Hanji will force me to go along with one of her 'making friends' plans; which never ended well for me. Normally this would be easy, but I've never had to try and reassure a half demon that easily killed two angels right in front of me before. Not that angels are my favorite thing either.

"Eren." He turned to look at me quicker than I thought he would and it caught me off guard. "Being 'dangerous' doesn't mean you are a bad person. Everyone in this car would be considered dangerous; it just matters what you do with the skills or talents you have." I hope that makes this better. To me it sounded more convincing than what I had told him before, and by his reaction it seemed he found it more convincing as well.
