[Yes, that's much better. Remember the hand holding thing? It's happening right now.]
Good. As long as you understand. [Armin would be so disappointed in you right now!
She looks over to the traumatised staff member (lol).] I would still like our order, please. But change the espresso to a Grande Caramel Latte with extra foam.
[She looks over to him.] You are too heated right now. You only get it this once because you need to calm down for your essays.
[He gets it... she does this too often, making him feel like a kid who can't look after himself. He can't bubble up in anger when the staff is considering him as a violent punk, and he can't when Mikasa orders what he wants anyway.
He's learned his lesson.
Sort of.]
It's fine. [But he's obviously a bit happy that she let him have the coffee.] I'll take the toast.
[Even though personally, she probably would still be unable to let him go, he often proves to her that she still needs to hold his hand. Sure, part of it might be because he wants to prove to her that he can go off on his own, but seen that she had to clean up his mess afterwards...
But he listens, which counts for something.]
Good. [Now if he did this in the first place!!] Let's go sit down. The comfortable lounge chairs are free.
[That is, after she cast the area one look, and some of the diners vacated to neighbouring tables.]
[He gets that as well, as hard headed as he can be about things. They grew up together, there's no way he wouldn't see that much.
But something like this... He sighs, shifts his bag after helping pay for their drinks and food and heas to the lounge tables she's talking about. There he sets up his laptop and books, intending to get right to work. He does it quietly for once too, lamenting on the way they both handled that.
[She watches him as he goes; looking at the way he moved, he was still thinking about what happened. Though that would be preferable so that he could learn, right now is just not the right time if he wanted to complete his essays.
She honestly hoped that he will calm down enough to do them.
So Mikasa lets him settle down on his own for now while she waits to collect their tray instead of joining him first. Once the order was completed, she brings it over and puts it where there is space.]
Eat now while it is still warm. It will help you feel better before you study.
[He loads up the pages he needs, starting to let his eyes glaze over. He stops briefly when she brings the tray over, hand reaching for the coffee without even looking. Thankfully he picks the right one. His hands close around it, and he breathes down the small sip hole to try and cool it down a little.]
Y...Yeah.
[He sends a gaze in her direction.]
What are you going to do?
[Mikasa was always better about getting her work done so she didn't really need to be here.
[Good aim, Eren. Otherwise he would be stuck with an espresso (HAHA). She watches him, he's careful about his drink so she doesn't need to worry about that.
She sets his plate close to his working space, just away from his hands so that he won't accidentally knock it, before putting her own food down, and places the tray away from them.]
I can study ahead. All my assignments are finished.
["Study ahead". She might not be an Armin, but she tries. And yes, also so she can make sure he's studying. No going into facebook, okay.]
[He would have flipped a table if that happened... but no, the cups are smaller on those, he's got this. He eats the toast after taking a small sip, glancing between his laptop and her. Of course she'd do the sensible thing while he rushes through 4 essays in a week.]
[LAKJSLKJAS his luck if that happened... it's a good thing he's perceptive. And exactly. Plan ahead, Eren. This is why she tops her classes so often (the ones that Armin doesn't share with her).
She takes a sip of her drink (probably could finish it in one swig really).]
["Plan ahead" + "Eren" really don't go in the same sentence unless he's prodded and poked, let's be real here. Lest us not forget when he ran at the Colossal Titan thinking he could take the fucker down...
[It all goes quiet now, and the poor staff behind the counter have relaxed too. They can see that Mikasa has the "troublesome kid" under control now, that's what matters to them. Eren's kind of forgotten to finish his toast, too, though he's still drinking the latte. One step at a time.]
[Back to their usual business, and serving cute non-violent customers. Eren should learn from them.
Also Eren is too involved with his latte! But at least he is studying, so she will let him off for that. She continues to read, wondering if she should ask the staff to reheat the toast.
His hand reaches out to take his toast again but it's gone???]
Huh?
[Ah... He spots Mikasa moments later by the till, clearly asking them to heat it up for him. So he doesn't let her down, he puts the latte down and starts slamming into his essay. Look, he's behaving!]
She doesn't notice, so when she comes back with a nice warm toast (again), she only sees him typing enthusiastically.
Her face brightens up as she puts down his plate, not wanting to tell him that it's all nice and warm now in case she breaks his line of thought. She'll wait a bit until he takes a pause, in which very quietly--]
Look at them, even the staff can be surprised by how different they look now!
But oh.]
... [Too bad to life that Mikasa is the type who would actually feed him because he's working hard. She's just not very delicate so she may have shoved the corner of the toast a little to close to his nose before getting it into his mouth.]
Maybe it needs more spices... [WOW he got his coffee though!!! Have some variety! She blinks.] I don't mind, but only if you want to. You need to eat. [TO WORK HARD YOU KNOW.]
Strawberry is popular. Cherry is sweeter. [Alright, she's proud of him! Once she does the word count.]
It is up to you. [HEY SHE DID IT ALRIGHT only she was more shameless about it because she's cool. Which is probably what she's imagining he's doing right now, not whatever he's thinking, god.]

He doesn't break away from typing, but he does glance back at her. He seems much happier again now too... what kawaii siblings.
