~ Speak Your Dark Pleasures to Me ~

"Hey," Levi said, nudging Hanji's shoulder. "Don't go to sleep yet."

He didn't know how she could even think of allowing herself to fall asleep at a moment like this, on such filthy sheets... but, apparently she could, as it appeared that she was very close to drifting off right at this moment.

"Hanji." He shook her more roughly this time.

Her eyelids flickered and she murmured a vague, "Hm?"

"Don't go to sleep," Levi repeated.

His orders, however, were no match for her state of exhaustion, and try as he might, he found that he could not rouse her from her slumber.


I can't remember the last time I've slept so well, Hanji thought to herself, not wanting to open her eyes and let her night of blessed rest end. Of course, it was most likely due to certain pre-bedtime activities that she had slept so deeply. Levi had been rather more enthusiastic tonight than on previous occasions... which reminded her, the last thing she remembered before passing out was Levi telling her not to go to sleep. Ooh, he's probably going to be mad at me.

It was then that she realized Levi was asleep beside her, with his forehead resting lightly against her shoulder and one arm draped over her waist. Although it was still dark out, Hanji used her other senses to take stock of her surroundings.

Sheets: clean. Self: clean, naked. Levi: also clean, only half naked, kind-of almost cuddling me.

She chuckled quietly to herself as she imagined documenting her observations of their relationship the way she did her Titan research.

An important discovery has been made: if Subject Z passes out immediately after conducting sexual activities with Subject A, then Subject A will proceed to wash Subject Z while Subject Z sleeps.

Of course, she wouldn't actually write things like that down, on the off-chance that someone snooping through her research journals might find out about their relationship - which was currently a secret, even from those closest to them.
