“What about you, Annie? Why are you in training?”

The familiar lie was resting on her tongue—a comfortable life behind Wall Sina—but just as she was about to utter it, she spotted a shooting star out of the corner of her eye and faltered. A life behind Wall Sina would be the furthest thing from comfortable, and to claim otherwise here, under the eye of the entire cosmos, was a crime Annie couldn’t bring herself to commit.

From their carefree cadet days until after the world has ended, Armin and Annie have always gravitated towards each other. One moment of shared vulnerability opens up the opportunity for their connection to bloom.

"Armin didn't know the plan changed to killing Eren until he saw Eren's head in Mikasa's hands"

...killing Eren was Armin's plan. Of course he knew. He said, "Goodbye, Eren," before transforming to kill him with a Colossal explosion.

Remember, he even proposed it early as their return from Liberio.

He knew it would likely come to this. He knew what they had to do. It was still devastating.

Not to mention the conversation he JUST remembered having with Eren, where he says he and Eren will be together forever in hell - because he knows Eren is going to die.

Sometimes I think about the ‘okapi’ bit from the finale and yes, it’s known for its levity- but with my Aruani glasses fully on I would like to also point out that it’s also a small glimpse into how much of a bookish nerd Annie must be privately.

What reason would she have within her set of life circumstances to know what an okapi is?? She had to have read about it in a book at some point and committed it to memory. And I doubt Marley was giving her an education on zoology as part of her Warrior training.

So then my next conclusion I jump to is- if Armin spent time talking to her about his theories of the outside world and all the flora and fauna and habitats that might exist, you know she had to be sitting there biting her tongue- because there’s some subconscious part of her that wants to yap back but she can’t blow her cover…

Post-Rumbling, I picture Annie just randomly, quietly, and in that flat tone of hers, sharing little facts or being knowledgeable about things. And it doesn’t surprise Armin at all and he just happily contributes some other nerdy little observation- but to the other Ambassadors it all suddenly clicks. Why Armin and Annie work together.

They’re both nerds.

I hc that Armin gets his first glasses at some point after he becomes an ambassador

Is it too sweet to imagine Armin reading to Annie whilst she was crystallised?

That basement has more or less become a place where he can go to gather his thoughts and find some peace away from the chaos above, especially after a tasking mission, so him using it as a reading room isn’t unlikely…

I can imagine it starting by just mentioning to her what he’s reading that day.. and then just proceeds to read her an excerpt he thinks is interesting and it just continued from there.

Also imagine Hitch walking in and scaring the shit out of him whilst he’s in deep narration.
