GROANING, you threw your head back and slapped the back of your hand across your eyes.
"hey, do we really need to be doing this?" connie grumbled, walking towards the track with another wooden board.
you looked towards him and exhaled deeply, "no, we don't." jean replied, slamming down his hammer onto the bolt.
his eyes drifted upwards towards eren, who was throwing his arm back.
"if that idiot hadn't opened his stupid mouth and said that we could train our bodies while developing the island –" he rambled on.

"and if that saves historia from suffering, we have to give it a try." you heard jean say from beside you, wiping away at his chin.
eren dropped down to his knees, setting down his hammer and flicking at the bill of your hat.
his eyes narrowed, "you should take a break, y/n. let us handle some of the work." he insisted.
you shook your head rapidly, crossing your arms. "i'm strong, remember?" you replied, lifting your arms and poorly flexing the muscles you had.
