Oh my gosh, my feels. :'(

Oh man friend I'm sorry you too have fallen into the tragedy that is wishing Levi/Petra were canon. *hands tissue* I know that feel

DON’T EVEN GET ME STARTED ON THESE TWO OKAY NEVER MIND I’M STARTED YOU CAN’T STOP ME

it’s been pretty awful. It’s stated in canon that Petra was “devoted to Levi in every way” which we all know, added in with the marriage comment from her dad, that meant Petra was in love with Levi. I liked the idea of them, and I really think that the moment when Levi notices Petra’s body flying out of the wagon

is the moment that’s supposed to solidify to viewers that he might have had feelings for her as well. After all, he paid no attention to his other comrades falling out of the wagon, but the animation crew made a point of showing Levi noticing Petra’s body (shown above).

Also the scene where he’s clearly upset at hearing Petra’s father talking about her. 

Look at that fucking face. Levi is hard to assume about because he’s so subtle with his emotions. In fact, he’s probably the easiest one to draw and animate because his expression rarely changes. But that means that when his face does change, it’s so incredibly powerful to watch. You know shit is important if Levi’s face changes. The widening of his eyes, the dark shadows surrounding them, the deepened frown; it’s all there. It’s all evidence that he is feeling agony in respect to her death.

And, of course, we cannot forget about this:

Levi cuts off Petra’s badge. Don’t tell me it wasn’t hers, because we all know it was. He wanted something to remember her by (as he puts it, “we still have their memories.”) And then when he gives the badge to Ivan instead, a selfless act of kindness that makes me weep rainbows, dumping Petra’s body was even worse because now he didn’t even have her body. He had nothing to remember her by, no piece of tangible evidence that she was ever even in his life. He hand picked her, and that guilt alone must be difficult. Now he’s lost her because he left his squad. I cannot imagine the pain he was in when he found their bodies, Petra’s in particular.

Petra was all gung-ho about trust in their squad. She trusted Levi with everything she had. She trusted that when he left them, he was going to come back. I would bet you money that when they were being attacked by the female titan, Petra fully believed Levi was gonna come swooping in and save the day. Up until her last breath, she believed he would come back to her. But he wasn’t there.

If they ever teamed up, humanity wouldn't stand a chance.

These two will rule the planet someday

I love how Lin and Toph have the same expression.

Also, this reminds me of when Bolin pushed Suyin to hug Opal.
