Chapter 4 | Closed to Mikasa | Action
Who: Armin and Mikasa
What: Clothes shopping, a couple unfortunate run-ins with magic arrows, and a date
Where: Around Nova City
When: A day or so before Valentine's
Warnings: None so far!
A week after he arrives, Armin already has a job nailed down, but he's still wearing Eren's too-large clothes, given his uniform is pretty much in tatters. As such, he can't really argue when Mikasa drags him to the mall to get him something of his own to wear.
He hasn't been avoiding it, exactly. But he's still wary of technology, it's strange to be in a new place without the Travelers along - the constant hum of psychic activity in his head - and he's been wrapped up in learning how to be an administrative assistant, spending most of his off hours on it too. Besides which, if he's honest... he's still at a stage where he can barely believe he has Eren and Mikasa back, and he feels a lot better when they're close by. So except for work, he hasn't been leaving the house much.
Still, it's probably about time he sees a little more of the city. He keeps his eyes open, taking in everything on their walk. Which is why he notices an arrow sticking out of the bushes. Thinking it odd, given the circumstances, he wanders over to pick it up, lagging a couple seconds behind Mikasa.
Unfortunately for him, he hasn't been paying very much attention to the network, either.
It seems like a perfectly normal arrow - he just can't think of a reason it would be out here. "Ouch!" Well, it's definitely still sharp.
