It's not stealing this time. ['This time' because they've absolutely stolen tea supplies in the past] I intend to replace it, eventually.
[Which they will once they find out the particular brands Levi likes best, but they aren't exactly in a hurry to do it either. He has plenty over there!]
[Hange busies themself in the little kitchen, heating up water and preparing the right amount of tealeaves that will allow them to each have a cup or two if they desire, not feeling a need to interject noise into the comfortable silence just for the sake of conversation, until it has a purpose.]
Uh-huh. [ He may sound unconvinced, but he doesn't even care. He can replace tea himself. He can't replace Hange. ]
[ The silence is almost too comfortable, honestly, and his eyes are practically starting to close by the time they speak again, jolting him back fully into the waking world. ]
[ Where-- right. He straightens up a little, scooting further up the couch again where he had slipped into a comfortable slouch while Hange was preparing the water. ]
...Just tea is fine.
[ He should probably be eating something that isn't tea, but oh well. ]
[Hange will continue making the tea in silence, letting it brew and sit there steeping for a few minutes while they make themself some toast (such a wonderful invention, the toaster!)]
[It's a good five minutes or so before they return to the living room...]
[ Levi does want the tea, so he does his best to stay awake, and he'd probably manage that too if not for the toast side quest. Unfortunately, those few extra minutes seem to make all of the difference... ]
[ Hange finds him sitting on the couch, arms folded and heels dug into the carpet, his head bowed forward slightly, breaths even. ]
[ He probably would be upset at missing tea, though. Maybe Hange should wake him up for that. Then again, there's probably some concerning implications here considering how quickly and easily he seems to nod off when it's just the two of them together, almost as if he hadn't slept a wink in the weeks prior, so perhaps it's best to leave him be... ]
[Hange returns with two cups of tea, surprised to find that Levi has nodded off so easily. The thought crosses their mind to wake him up since the drink is ready, but he honestly looks so peaceful sleeping there...]
[..And it isn't the first time that he has drifted off so easily while in Hange's company. Finding Levi asleep in a chair isn't anything new, he's been that way for years, but he never just fell asleep while they were in the middle of doing something, not unless there was some amount of intention behind it. He must be exhausted... but why? They have even less to do these days. Not even Hange pulls frequent all-nighters anymore.]
[They still have a couple hours until they are meant to meet with Eren, so Hange opts for letting him sleep, setting the drinks and the toast down on the coffee table and taking a seat on the floor in front of the couch as not to disturb him. Sweet dreams....]
[ A couple hours is about how much he usually sleeps, so he might actually wake up by himself eventually... he'd better still get some tea before they leave for the training, though, or he's going to be very upset. ]
