"Why did I agree to this?"Petra giggled at Eren's plea to nobody in particular as she blew the mica crystals off the tip of her fan brush. For all his meek protestations he sat still enough while she dusted his cheekbones. Even though they had a rocky start, she actually felt like she liked Eren, and the effect he had on Levi was astonishing. She had never seen him imprint on another person so quickly and completely in their entire friendship.
"Peer pressure."
Eren rolled his eyes and she had to study him a minute to be a hundred percent sure he wasn't wearing contacts. Up close, his eye color looked even more impossible. He muttered discontentedly and it made her want to laugh again.
"I thought you guys didn't fit into stereotypes."
Petra shrugged nonchalantly while she continued to dab at his cheeks. She wasn't terribly surprised that Eren had taken a liking to Levi, she had yet to meet a single person, male or female who didn't want to either be him, or be with him once they got to know him. But it was nice to see how his eyes followed Levi whenever they were together...nice to see that maybe her friend would find someone who returned his feelings for a change, after the mess that Erwin made.
Nobody deserved that more than Levi did.
"Even us non conformists have a mold to fit into."
"Stop bullying the new guy, Big Red."
She glanced over her shoulder to see Levi entering the room, freshly showered and dressed for clubbing. He'd swapped his piercings out for ones that looked innocuous now, but she knew would glow in the dark. He wore tight black pants and a flimsy black collared shirt that was nearly see through once it was hugging his body. It was a relatively tame outfit for him but he dressed it up with white harness straps that crisscrossed his chest and abdomen and secured to loops around his thighs and hips with the kind of clips you'd see on a garter belt. He completed the look with fingerless leather gloves and heavy black boots.
Even his makeup was different, flawless though it was. His smokey eye was more defined than it had been earlier and his lipstick was blood red instead of black. She wouldn't mention how the bold lip took attention away from the puffiness around his eyes. If Levi didn't want to talk about the fact that he had been crying in the bathroom, she wasn't going to bring it up in front of a stranger.
She felt more than heard Eren's sharp intake of breath and backed up to give him a better view.
"I'm not bullying him, you said to help him get ready."
Levi snorted.
"You call that 'help'? Go get dressed and let me fix this."
Petra blew her side bang out of her face and flounced away.
"Fine. Ollie texted when you were in the shower, he's gonna be here in fifteen minutes and we're gonna meet the rest of the crew at the bridge."
She grabbed her clothes off Levi's bed and slipped out into the hallway, shutting the door behind her. She doubted they would actually do anything that required privacy, but she could help it along nonetheless.

Levi crossed the room slowly, working hard to master his reaction to seeing Eren in his clothes. They had stayed at the gallery for another half hour before cutting out. After the unlikely appearance of his birth father, Levi's heart just wasn't in it anymore and both his mom and uncle Kenny were acting stiff and weird. His friends were eager to go now that they all had plans, and it was imperative that they get home and get their things together before anyone's parents asked too many questions.
