Summary
Captain Levi read the message in silence. You watched him intently. He was inherently still, something that could not be said for most people, and he had an oppressive air about him that wasted no time getting under your skin. You were completely tense as you waited. Something about him unsettled you.
His mouth drew into a disgusted frown. He penned his response below Hange’s note and took great care to fold it along its original seams. When he offered the message back to you, he looked directly through you, and his presence swallowed you whole. Your breath caught in your throat. You gently retracted your hand with the note, all the while locked into place by the captain.
Were you afraid? Ashamed? Merely uncomfortable? The feeling that overwhelmed you was completely unfamiliar, but it made a home inside you, grasping at every fiber of your being with an awesome power that made you want to tear your hair out. It struck you like lightning. You wanted to bolt from that place and hide from it no matter the cost. Though, at the same time, your life depended on it. You felt… visible.
