[ but they had so little numbers even the garrison branch accompanied the survey corps. brutal, indeed. they had poor training and got eaten in moments outside the walls. eren breathes, realizing the slowness of the cart and already waiting at the door. it should flatter open once they squeak to a stop, and he jumps off. ]
That’s what this is for.
[ he gestures to the maneuver gear and all those body harness contraptions on him. ]

Then they double as swords, so you can do everything at once.
[ zack, do not be fooled. there are people much better than eren. he was average. ]
And get deathstares? My higher ups would tell me to go back to the convention center.
