Homeless and looking

[clean_cut_corporal]

. . . This place is filthy tch.

As if I'd even humour your notion of having me live somewhere like this. I'm in the Scouting Legion for a reason. I can't be contained. I refuse to.

You're testing my patience. Get me back to my squad while I'm still in a good mood. What's that? You don't know where they are? ... Out of my way then, I'll find them myself.

If you're having trouble finding your way around, Corporal, I've made myself a map of the area.

[ He's been stir crazy just sitting around homeless ]

[clean_cut_corporal]

[ Its a good job it was Erwin who approached him and not someone less respected, or a fat lip could have been in order. Instead, you get a side glance, nod and nonchalant blink. ]

Chief Erwin. Yes, a look at a map may save me some time. You're here too though, does that mean we've been split up from the others?

[save_a_horse]

I've seen Hange and Mike, even some of your squad, death is abysmal in this realm it seems. However, I'm far more concerned with the sifters running about so freely.

[ Folding his arms over chest, Levi lent back against a wall. A quiet sigh escaped his lips. Eyebrows ever furrowed. ]

I see...

... I'll round up those I can find, you're right, we can't risk an incident should one of them turn.

[ Turning his attention back to the commander. ]

How long have you been here for?

[save_a_horse]

23 days, I arrived in the evening so soon to be 24.

[ He fidgeted ]

I'm.. ready for something, anything, to happen.

[The busy body commander has had nothing to do for weeks. ]

[clean_cut_corporal]

That long already? tch I'm surprised in you Chief. I would have thought that by now you'd have made some progress in finding a way back home or at least rounding up some others.

[ He means no offence, you should be used to him by now. However, that last part made Levi quirk a brow. ]

Trouble burning off energy, Chief? Or is that look in your eye telling me we're about to set off on a spontaneous mission?

[save_a_horse]

Well..[ He was about to mention that actually, pulling out his map of everywhere he's been so far.]

Here we have the hub, dear_mun is where we are now, I 'appeared' here if you may. Many spawn in this place, some never leave, there are quite a few directions to go from here.

[ He pointed to bakerstreet on his map ]

Here we have a rather large grouping of people, they call it 'Bakerstreet.' Rather lively, many, many people come and go. I've found directions to plenty of other places, all of which you can.. see.. [clearing his throat, hoping Levi wouldn't ask about 'The Love Hotel'.. it had been an awkward experience for him]..on my map. Bakerstreet is where I've reconnected with Hange as well as many others.

[Pointing if a completely different direction then]

I've heard of these 'horror games' that have human-eating creatures. I suspect these to be titans. Many young teens have been going there as of late um.. ah-.. Super-

Duper..

High Schoolers with many different talents (not positive how those talents help protect them form being ripped to pieces..) I'm not quite sure what a High School is either but we will find out surely.

[clean_cut_corporal]

[ Looking over the edge of the map being so short was kind of annoying at times before coming to stand right at Erwin's side. ]

I see. So you've been to these places then?

[ Tapping at the ones mentioned as well as letting his finger linger over this 'love hotel' He'd actually briefly met Eren there, but ... That was something he'd rather not have to confess. ]

So it seems there are Titan's here after all? Why you'd send people there to be devoured is beyond me, but this is clearly a very different world.

Schoolers sounds like ' Scholars' so I'd assume they're some kind of students?

[ Tossing his commander a curious glance, reading his facial expression and body language. He seemed unsettled and that in itself was unsettling to Levi.]

Where do you suggest we check out first? My squad vowed to give their hearts and lives for the survival of humanity, I have no worries that they will be able to hold their own in a place like this. You on the other hand Chief...

[ Furrowed brows frowned and knitted in the middle as he placed a hand over the map and lowered it down out of view. ]

... 24 days has been a lot for you to be separated from your men, hasn't it?

[ It had been a while since he'd needed to do it in front of his commander, but Levi gave an honest salute. ]

You have my services, Chief. I'll stick around for now, keep you company.

[save_a_horse]

[Feeling a little unsettled when Levi's finger brushed over 'The Love Hotel']

O-Oh, um- yes, that place. I was told about it but never went inside.. Not important, surely nothing that would to aid our journey home...

[A sigh, his anxiety levels growing higher each day with nothing to do, being a bit more talkative than usual, granted.]

Thank you, Levi.. Yes, let's conduct our operation. From my observation this world is not as safe as it appears so stay on your guard, as will I.

[Smiling softly, trying to keep the mood light having been to distant from others, having become a tad lonely. He shouldn't admit such things in thus he wouldn't, keeping them to himself.]

Very well, onward.

[clean_cut_corporal]

[ Sure, that hotel seemed a rather seedy place, far too dirty for Levi to visit for too long before wanting to shower everyone and clean the place. But still, he would have felt no shame in activities he'd conducted there. If anything, that place held good to 'relieve' stress. ]

Noted. Perhaps checking it out last would be an idea? See if there are any brats hanging around from the other Military Police or other sectors. If they crave slacking off with everything handed to then, safe inside the inner city walls, I could see them going for a hotel.

[ The talkativeness is actually rather refreshing. Erwin is one of the few people Levi actually enjoys being around and talking to, so he gently encourages the communication. Though he's still not all that great at expressing himself either. ]

What about setting up a camp? Have you a place you've been staying? Supplies and clean clothes?

[ A rare and very small grin pulled over his lips, amusing himself with a thought. ]

What about horses? I don't see yours around here and that's a lot of land to cover.. Unless you were expecting to ride me there and back.

[ He tapped his gear at on the base of his back. ]

I'm running low on gas.

[save_a_horse]

[Something like an emotion was controllable, a blush however was not. Cheeks growing a bit red under his blank expression.]

...It's up for debate I suppose. Anywhere is fine, I've yet to scavenge all there is to see. I..

[Oh, right, Erwin you're homeless. Time to man up and tell your lance corporal you're a hobo]

I.. I have no base of operations. I'm what they call um- 'homeless.' Bakerstreet, dear-mun, these are just places I go hoping to find a way home, if that sounds logical enough.

[Feeling a little shameful, actually feeling rather shameful. Erwin wasn't one to lie however..]

I would--never..

[Biting his tongue, knowing better then to mention Levi's height. Something like 'I'd crush you' would surely offend.]

[clean_cut_corporal]

[ Its okay, Levi didn't mention the flush he noticed in Erwin's face. It wasn't his place to question it, so he didn't. Though, he mused over it in his own mind for a moment. ]

We're in the same boat then.

[ A deep sigh at the confession of homelessness. ]

I'm being pushed towards some of these 'horror games' you mentioned, the big guy just hasn't decided which one yet. This has been the most successful in finding people, but I've been offered a room and a place to bath in the mean time.

[ He was talking about that hotel again. His mundane sweetened him up with promises of clean sheets and luxurious baths. Can you blame him? ]

living rough is a pile of crap, Chief. Men like us deserve better.

[ Tossing Erwin a raised brow and flat lined lips, Levi shook his head and nudged his way past his Commander. Clearly he'd taken the joke seriously or Levi had worded it wrong. ]

You're stalling or you're at a loss of where to go. I say lets just wing it until we have more information. Staying still is fruitless to us. You coming or what?

[ Sure in his stroll, but unsure of where he was walking to. At least he'd have company this time. ]

[ooc: You're welcome to ignore it or join him over at the hotel btw. Just sharing his activities is all cause your Chief is cool xD ]

[save_a_horse]

[ooc: We should continue this thread there then!! I'm working on an app for someone else right now but I totally would love to, thinking of a good reply as we speak!! aaaa-you're Levi too!! u///w///u~]

[clean_cut_corporal]

[ooc: We should indeed xD awesome! I ship it lol. n///u///n senpai noticed me~? lol]
