" ever heard of boundaries? " / you know for who

& THE BEAST AWAKENS.   THAT PITCH  -  THAT FALLING TONE.  it’s a downpour of coming disaster  /  a collision of windpipes & bruises expanding on itself  ――   it’s the way that hiss parts those crass & dour lips  -  a motion of muscle under skin becoming far too tense,  the way a throat tightening at the release of these words, as if they were slowly coming up with phlegm   /   cough them out.  these words are spewed out of a deface expression   /  voice merely a whimper  -  that whimper,  it is laced in a venom that stings at deliverance,  & those fangs he has  -  those gnarly / awful fangs  -  canines dripping in the most potent of discourtesy.   [maybe i should yank them out.]   it’s expected,  from such a drab male, lacking any enjoyable qualities  -  causing him any distress would be a far more convenient -  interesting than conversing with someone so rigid, not that he could say much --  & so,  it would be a hedonistic form of teasing.   

 yet.  even in his tragic state,  his presence is rather intimidating   /   you though,   you have never been shy of danger   / those slate eyes,  they have been transfix on him   -  more specifically,  his face   /   the low breathes he takes   /  how they huddle & rattle his disfigured frame.       & this is how you came to stand over him,  &  this is how your hands came to sit against a shallow chest   --   does those limbs even have enough strength to fight  /  to stop you  ―   given if you take the span of his neck  /   hold  -  press  -  squeeze,   & when breath stops,  when you hear the depth of a esophagus collapse  -  you can let go.    PUTTING DOWN THIS MANGLED BEAST.  it would be a mercy. [you are starting to sound like annie.]  instead,  instead of satisfaction - instead of complacency,   you are met with the snarling, you are shocked,  really, that this man didn’t bite at your hand.   to bite at the hand that only want to make an attempt to offer aid  /  alleviate the pain  /  a peaceful end for his now, pitiful existence.   [ a wounded dog,  never knowing when to just lie down & die.  then again.  you both are, you just have the advantage of regeneration. ]   & at his remark, you creates space - steps will replace a response.   you felt the air spoil   /   your hair stands on end, oooh now this is arousing ― pieck, don’t be too unruly.  & your body relaxes.   a malodorous taste veils buds,   shame it was not his blood.  he really does pollutes the wake of his surroundings  /  & you are fettered in the same space as these people - how many times have you tried to kill this man, a reciprocally relationship  /   for this is one of your enemies.   no,   no,   no,    enemies turned allies?   no, allies made from desperation   /   allies till death fractures this sorry excuse of a truce.   it’s impressive how the end of the world can convene opposing sides,  even if it only meant to save their own hide.        

& little pariah,  oh pieck, you cannot help but think,   if failure is the only outcome & marley is destroyed  /   your father   /    your home crushed below a foot of a titan  /  crushed how annie used to crush bugs  -  heel to spine  /  heel to body  /  pressure applied till the crunching of body is heard & entails come spilling out from sides - sides burst from pressure   /  applied pressure till movement is null & fluids & skin are indistinguishable from another. DEATH.  DEATH.  DEATH. THAT ALL IT WILL BE.   [ just like how you chomp down on lackeys, the soldiers like him. you know the sound of a skull popping - fissure apart from the weight of teeth. ]  stop.   stop thinking about this now.  keep it together.    this is depressing.  & you know the validity it holds,    they are helpless  /  they have no merit / no power to stand their ground:  brawn & will & guns & outcry will do nothing  :   they will be stomped out before the instinct to run can form.   you can’t help but theorized - conjure up the worst conclusion possible.  because if you fail.    IF YOU ALL FAIL.  IF YOU FAIL PIECK.  IF REINER FAILS.  IF ALL OF PARADIS FAILS TO STOP THE DEVIL.    will these fragments that remain of them - you - humanity   /   if any live through this decimation, will the warring continue till bloodshed soaks an earth  ―――  & that blood will water the earth to wash the names - wrongdoings  ��/    eradicate any that stand to oppose.   maybe,   maybe paradis will finish the task to completion.  & when you are all gone,  they will make sure that the bones are all to be collected & structured into some icon of the hell that came to be  /  a titan of her own resemblance maybe    /   a reminder  ――   & may they pray till the holy mary  takes shape   /  founder ymir  /  she will sculpt herself from their delusions of what remains,  & may she herself see the errs of man’s hatred   /   & maybe she slit each their throats & lay them to bed  /  a kiss upon each mark their sliced into their skin  -  each self inflicted bite mark  /  & return them each to neath.  no ending to this nightmare seem desirable.   [may i be first if this fails]   hm,  you can’t fail.  you CAN’T.   YOU CAN’T.    you have to ensure your father safety   /   annie’s  ――― even if you fall in the process, even if you are left  -  guts in marred hands  /   fingers rend like his own,   &  your own intestine hanging out your mouth,  you have to fight.  YOU HAVE TO.  ――  for even annie,   she has time  /  she can live a nice long life without you.  your father deserves to see the promises you vowed become a reality  /   no longer a childish promise.  PIECK.   you have reason to defy ymir  /  to face the devil.     you have no choice.     

  ❛  ohhh?    i have  ― although,  they don’t really interest me too much.   ❛

a laugh.   & this man,   this man might be a damaged piece  /  but,  he is no pawn.

so anyways have a weird pseudo-meta on the 239894 ways levi’s character could’ve been better used story-wise

tbh i do believe yams had it in him to write a nice, tight, cohesive story where everything could’ve fallen in place well enough -- at least to the point where actions made sense with reference to established character personalities and arcs within the story. i have no issue with regression, but you can’t make it half-assed or just. entirely left-field and leave it at that and ok moral of the story i’m like, 90% sure come from being far too invested in the fandom as an author. NEVER change your story because of someone else’s opinion when it’s SERIALISED y’all.

SECTION  I .     KILL  HIM  OFF  !

let’s be honest !!!  this is the most obvious !!!  we get it he’s popular, you’ll get backlash, yaddi yadda ya girl’s tired.

(  i .  )   why didn’t eren kill him.

why

remember what levi was actually established to DO early on? the whole “i’ll take care of eren if he goes manic”? his WHOLE NARRATIVE PURPOSE? would be great if we, you know, played with that At All.

how fucking FRIGHTENING would eren’s final form be if it just fucking nipped levi in the bud? if levi, completely fine and uninjured, stayed true to his word and lead to handle eren, just to be fucking annihilated? eren has like 60 fucking titans inside him INCLUDING the activated founding. I THINK IT’S PRETTY FAIR TO REDEFINE HIM AS BEING FUCKING OP NOW.

just define some real form of tension come on.

this could’ve also just. so naturally shifted the tension in mikasa’s direction. literally everyone instinctively has mikasa jotted down as second-best-next-to-levi, both in and out of canon. it would make sense for other characters to just eye awkwardly in deciding mikasa ‘has’ to be the next one to try through the framing bias that presents. 

right now it’s like it’s not even her choice but everyone decided it would be for no goddamn reason. why does mikasa need to be ok with killing eren at all??? why cant one of YALL do it????????? and like mikasa kills him but then presents absolutely no real conclusion in doing so. we get 0 insight into what’s really going on in her head and WE DONT EVEN GET TO SEE IT !!!!!!!!!!

(  i i .  )   zeke if yOu’Re goNnA do it dO it RIGHT

to stay more true to canon, here’s way better ways zeke could’ve actually been rid of him that aren’t. regressing and dumb lmao:

zeke’s still a war chief, he’s had YEARS of troop strategy / planning up his sleeves. why didn’t he use turning levi’s squad into a means to set up some real traps because what’s he gonna do to a bomb, huh? Fight it?

or better yet, spike more than just levi’s squad and just have swarms and waves of mindless titans coming in to provide that distraction.

or have more help?? there’s all the yeagerists at your disposal and not ONE can secretly set something up with you?

overall like zeke should know levi’s skill and levi shouldn;t have to assume zeke’s not ?????????????? “willing to die”??????????? WTF????? AREN’T YOU WHY WOULDN'T HE BE?????

god anyways

zeke kills levi u know what that sets up? the fact that he’s pretty fucking clever and powerful on his own???? so now when eren & zeke team up to cause the rumbling, regardless of zeke’s original intent, would make them Far more horrifying to the rest of the crew; 

tbh i feel like this should mean moving the ‘reveal’ of eren’s betrayal to the very end of the manga when eren explains everything through path visions bc at least it keeps his moral grey area more.... grey. 

we know by the end that he betrayed zeke so it’s like ok So Yes He’s Doing Summ For The Greater Good But What and at least this would balance the scales of mass murder a lil by not snipping all the men i fucking Guess lmao god

(  i i i .  )    RUMBLE HIM

step on him 

but really he can just??? die during the rumbling???? point blank??????????? why were there not more major character casualties lmao boi

if the colossal titans are just far too many and far too boring, all the previous titans on eren’s back is so delicious and should’ve been drawn out im not sorry about it.

where’s the 349873 iterations of character x character teaming up and slowly getting better at absolutely Slicing these bastards? WHERE ARE THEY? 

i want my warriors x stray marleans x survey squads just dedicated to keeping the 9 titan iterations out of eren’s neck.

he could’ve finally killed zeke here too but i’m gonna get to that whole thing lmao god.

we've also established him getting wounded when others are involved (à la leg injury helping mikasa) so have him??? sacrifice???? to help others like finish his empathy arc

let him sacrifice himself by keeping the titans back while armin blows up idc

and for all of these — it doesn’t even have to be a quick death. let him lose a body part and die of blood loss. let his organs fail. let him get infected like yo not every death has to be in 3s flat.

SECTION II .     OR  DON’T  !

like. let’s just say there’s absolutely no way your publicist is gonna let you kill this character. you love him too much / he’s become a weird self-insert. ok sure. YOU CAN STILL DO SOMETHING.

( i .  )  why does he just. not grow.

he’s five three but does his heart have to be?

anyways fr he’s literally a huge fucking asshole and he doesn’t grow out of it. no one ever point out that it’s terrible. the biggest blacklash he gets is historia punching him like pew. and it’s not even addressed why she did that. it’s just like haha, yep.

can we get him some uhhhh??? clear empathy ???? some actual growth?? like we know he went from the guy beating eren up Excessively to forcing historia to be queen to giving armin the colossus, and then back to just slicing zeke up uselessly and caring about one (1) thing. like he was clearly on a path somewhere.

like first of all, holy fuck get over it. it’s like he had a manic episode for 4 years just obsessing over killing zeke when the game changed buddy??? it’s been established that the issue is No Longer zeke why are we so hard on this. his entire character just becomes kill monkee because his arc is DONE so if we’re going to keep him around find something else?? or CONTINUE to develop him.

make him grow his soft skills as a leader. make him learn how to stick around his team and know exactly how to fall back. 

if he’s injured, make him LITERALLY stay back and learn how to handle those he has to keep back with him.

make him struggle keeping morale. 

make him argue with some of the non-paradisians, or even those from paradis that are like what the FUCK and just learn to offer his perspective.

if he’s so obssessed with zeke maybe uh?? address that with someone???? talk it out with your therapist buddy you’ve clearly not come to terms with the fact you let erwin die and he has no reason to be so caught up by that and if he does like lmao ok let us see and understand it???

( i i .  )   do something with the ackermans

that’s it that’s the post

idek what else to put here i want this fucker dead

— “ Indeed, there will always be even the remnant sadness and heartache of losing friends and comrades, no matter how much time passes… but you should be proud of how you have fought for humanity’s freedom. You have fought so hard. ” Her words would never EASE the agony of which he was suffering, she could never expect them to ( the pain was too great in its enormity ) but Emily only wished to convey her grateful feelings with regard to Levi’s continuing fight against the Titans, despite all the hardship he had endured. He never backed down nor would he ever relent & that was what Emily admired MOST about him. 

Still, though…

“ I truly am sorry for the loss of your companions, Levi. I understand how it feels to lose a loved one – but the most important thing is that we must never stop moving toward a brighter future, for their sakes. ”
