What do the AOT Dads do when the baby's crying and it's not for any basic needs or emergency reasons? And you're dog-tired, so they ain't getting any backup.
this was so fun to think about LOL thank u anon for the idea :)
dad!eren who uses the distraction method for any and all tears. baby is crying and he goes through the mental checklist: not hungry cause they just ate, no poopy diaper, not hurt. his go to is just doing whatever he can to distract his baby from being sad. he grabs the item closest to him and just shakes it in his baby’s face like oooooh look at this bag of almonds! listen to the sound cool sound it makes when you shake it! panic city: population eren
dad!armin who does his very best to talk your baby through their emotions even tho they are 1 and can’t speak LOL. ur baby cries because the blender makes a loud noise and he tries to explain it to them like see? it’s just helping daddy make a smoothie! it’s not so scary or when they cry because their sippy cup falls he picks it right up and is like it’s ok! it was just an accident! here you go! he’s so sweet i wanna eat him whole
dad!jean who talks to ur baby like a normal person LOL he just looks at them, maybe rubs their chubby lil legs a bit, and he’s like you don’t even know why you’re crying, do you? i’ve got you, quit whining, no baby voice, no engaging sensory tactics, he loves ur baby sm he just struggles to understand their dramatics. you overhear him from the other room like nothing’s wrong with you, i checked everything, you’re just being dramatic, like your mom (or whatever u preferred to be called)
dad!connie who shakes your baby every time they cry. he just picks them up and throws them around in his arms in hopes of getting them to laugh. he tickles them, bounces them on his hip, puts them on his shoulders. it’s a 50/50 method…when it works, it works seamlessly, but when it fails…ur baby cries harder than before. hit or miss honestly
dad!levi who is very in tune with your baby’s cries, so its not often for him to be confused or overwhelmed with the situation at hand. he knows the tiniest differences in ur baby’s cries, which ones mean they’re hungry, tired, stinky, or just bored. he’s great at differentiating the situations and having a plan for each one. usually just rocks your baby in his arms or walks them around the house, giving them a change of scenery or something to look at. he is the Best Father, offically. 
dad!reiner who sings to your baby every time their eyes begin to water or their lip begins to quiver. he’s not even good at singing LOL but its something about the vibration of his voice or the sudden change in situation that stops your baby from crying almost every single time. porco is over ur house one time and the three of them are hanging out and ur baby randomly starts to get fussy and the last thing porco expects is for reiner to fully break out into a personal rendition of shake it off by taylor swift. he secretly records a video of it and sends it in their friend gc every time reiner gets snippy with him 
dad!porco who fake cries right back in your baby’s face every time they cry for no reason. your baby whines and screams its little head off and porco is quick to mimic its cries right back to them....ur little baby is so confused and gives him a side eye that practically screams “dad, wtf are you doing....” and porco just smirks and is like “yeah, its not fun to listen to, is it?”

content : armin x fem!reader , slightly angsty , mentions of breastfeeding , infertility , and children ofc
a/n : hey !! this is my first armin one shot , so please let me know if you enjoy and give me any feedback if you want to !! 
Tumblr media
•••
the soft, yet loud cries from your baby girl echoed within the bedroom walls, tearing you away from a decently peaceful sleep. the clock on your nightstand displayed that the time was 4:13 am. you groaned slightly due to exhaustion, but you knew that you couldn’t leave your newborn hungry, which was most likely the reason why she was crying.
you slowly left the bed, not wanting to wake your husband up beside you, but he ended up stirring anyway due to the little one’s cries.
shifting on the bed, armin turned towards your figure, wiping the sleep from his eyes.
“she alright, babe?” his concerned voice was a mixture of exhaustion, morning voice, and tiredness.
“yeah,” you nodded. walking back towards the bed with the baby cradled in your arms. “i think she’s just a little hungry.”
armin’s eyes carefully glanced up at you, knowing all about the physical and mental struggle that you were experiencing with trying to breastfeed. you were frustrated with yourself, confused as to why all of the other first-time moms you had talked to had been able to do it from the get-go, when you hadn’t even been able to do it once.
in the two weeks since your daughter was born, she had been feeding off of bottles, which obviously wasn’t bad for her at all, but it made you feel frustrated and annoyed that you couldn’t feed her yourself.
“want me to go grab a bottle, baby?” armin tentatively asked, knowing it was a touchy subject for you.
“no, no. i wanna try.” you had said this at least once a day at this point, and your husband knew that your patience was running very thin now.
“okay, i’m right here if you need anything at all.” he watched as you removed your shirt and the straps of your nursing bra, which you wore at all times simply just because it was comfortable for your sore breasts.
guiding your daughter towards your exposed nipple, you attempted to get her to latch on, which was the main issue with not being able to breastfeed.
you let out an annoyed sigh, ready to give up after a few minutes.
“angel, it’s okay. just take a break and let me give her the bottle, m’kay?” armin attempted to console you by rubbing his hand along your back, but instead, your eyebrows furrowed, seemingly bothered by something he had said.
“no, ‘min. i can do this, just give me time. please.” your voice had a slight hint of annoyance, which tore your husband up a little, as he just wanted to help.
however, time kept passing and as much as your baby kept opening her mouth for your nipple, she just wouldn’t latch on.
“come on, little one, please.” you tried to encourage her, but to be honest, you were stressed and frustrated with the whole situation.
“here, sweetheart, how about i call the consultant from the hospital? maybe she could help a little bit?” in the hospital, when you had first found it hard to breastfeed, the staff brought in a lactation consultant. obviously, you still weren’t able to breastfeed when you were discharged, so she gave you her number so you could call when you needed her.
“no, armin! it’s four in the morning, she’s probably asleep right now! god, use some common sense for once and mind your own business!” you yelled at him, immediately feeling bad when he shied away from you, turning the other direction before making up some excuse to enter the bathroom.
you felt horrible for lashing out at armin like that; he didn’t deserve it at all. you knew he was just trying to help, but you didn’t want to seem weak in front of him. you wanted so badly to be able to provide for your baby like everyone else could, but this feeling of hopelessness turned to anger towards your husband, which wasn’t fair to him at all.
after a few minutes, you were about ready to give up, until armin walked back into the bedroom with a melancholic look on his face.
“hey, ‘min, come here,” you motioned for your love to join you back on the bed, so he hesitantly crept over to your side. “i’m so sorry, baby, i didn’t mean to get angry. i know you’re just trying to help, and i shouldn’t have gotten angry about that.”
he nodded, his hand finding your back again as a form of comfort. he could see the tears threatening to fall from your face, getting fed up with the whole situation. “it’s okay, i forgive you, sweetheart. i just want you to know that i’m here for you through this, okay? you two girls mean the world to me, and i would do anything to make sure you guys are safe and comfortable.”
your bottom lip quivered at his statement before the tears finally escaped your waterline, pouring down your face as you sobbed in front of him. your gasping breaths made his heart ache, as he just wanted to help you so badly and hated to see you cry.
“hey, hey, it’s okay baby, let it out. i got you, angel, i’m not going anywhere.” you allowed yourself to lean into him, gripping his arm for stability as he continued to draw circles on your back.
“breathe, baby. take some deep breaths for me.” he helped you breathe in and out, counting as you stabilized your breathing together.
you sat back up, staring at his face. “i just don’t know why i can’t do it, armin. why is this so much easier for everyone else but i just can’t do it?” you sobbed into his chest as he took your daughter from your arms, allowing you to curl up against him. “it’s like my whole body is broken at this point, from not being able to conceive, to this!”
armin simply kissed your forehead, comforting you through your breakdown. he knew that conceiving was a hard process between you two. you had been trying for nearly a year and a half before your doctor confirmed that there were a few complications with your ovaries, which made it very difficult to release an egg.
they said that having a baby would be like a miracle, a miracle that you were about to give up on before armin helped you come to the decision to try a few more times. thankfully, one of those times gave you your little miracle baby, who your husband was holding in his arms right now.
both of these issues kept a massive weight on your shoulders, subconsciously forcing you to believe that you weren’t good enough for both armin and for yourself. not being able to do a function that your body should be able to do was incredibly mentally deteriorating, and armin knew that.
still, he loved you just the same and would never even imagine treating you differently.
“angel, please don’t be so hard on yourself. i know it’s not coming naturally, baby, and i know that you feel like you aren’t enough for me, and that’s not true in the slightest.” it was always known that armin had a strange ability to read your mind, yet every time he did, it still managed to surprise you. 
“i know it’s been difficult for you, but i also know how strong you are, and that you’ve been trying your absolute hardest.” you sniffled at his comments, trying to maintain your composure. “let’s try this one more time, my love, okay?”
you nodded, sitting back up and taking your baby from his arms.
finally, your daughter moved closer to your nipple, moving her mouth open and closed as if she was almost there. you shuffled a bit, attempting to fit your nipple into her mouth before she eventually wrapped her tiny pink lips around it.
your breath hitched in your throat, realizing how close she was to getting the milk before she started to suck, finally latching on. you let out a large, happy sigh and glanced towards your husband, who was already looking at you in wonder.
“she did it.” you gasped, throwing your head back in exhaustion.
“you did it, baby.” he cooed, speaking to both of his girls. “im so proud, angel.”
“i love you, armin.”
“i love you too, my love.” he pulled his lips towards yours for a passionate kiss. “how is the -uh- experience?”
“it feels really strange, like a warm tingly feeling? i don’t really know how to describe it.” you laughed, leaning slightly towards armin’s shoulder.
his arms wrapped around your body as he stared down at his daughter who was happily enjoying her feeding session, tiny hands on his wife’s breast.
“she’s real lucky,” armin smirked, staring down at you. “having mommy’s boob all for yourself, huh?”
“shut up.” you lightly smacked his chest at the dirty joke before continuing to rest your head on his shoulder. he let his fingers flow through your hair, giving you occasional kisses on your scalp.
you smiled, resting peacefully as your daughter finally unlatched from your nipple, bringing her to armin’s shoulder so he could burp her.
your little family had never been more perfect.

Head canon that Jean leans into being a girl dad HARD.
No literally this is the scene:
You’ve spent the day with Annie and Armin. Jean urged you to take a break from being a mom to your 3-year old daughter for a day, so the two friends took you out for a third-wheel date that you actually loved. You got to be parented for a day!
And when you come back home, you walk into the living room to find Jean, Connie, and Levi having a tea party with your daughter. These three men don’t know the meaning of toxic masculinity. You burst out laughing at the scene - all three men are sitting on the floor in front of the coffee table, and are wearing feather boas you’ve never seen before. The tea set Levi got your daughter for her third birthday is spread before them.
Levi is as stoic as ever, but he raises his tea cup that your daughter carefully painted for him. Connie has the biggest grin on his face as your daughter offers him with a cookie. She turns back to her father, Jean, and yells “Don’t move!”
You raise an eyebrow at him and he lifts up his hands - your daughter painted his fingernails bright turquoise.
“I said don’t move, it’ll drip!!” She repeats. And sure enough, the nail polish she was a bit over eager with is dripping down Jean’s fingers.
“Sorry sweetie!” He apologizes and grins at you with a smile that says “See, we’re perfectly fine without you for a day!”
“Daddy said we could have a tea party, so I invited Uncle Connie and Uncle Levi!” Your daughter explains with gusto. She was running this show and Jean was happy to oblige.
“I see,” you laugh and sit down with your little found family.
Jean hands you a tea cup.
“Cheers!”

What does Tumblr have against aruani having a son? (Asking you cuz your wife scares me...)
Oh ahahaha xD
There's nothing against AruAni having a son xD It's just that some of us here lean more toward Aruani being girl parents than boy parents. (Just the mental image of Armin surrounded by his daughters and wife is somewhat too good to be unbiased lol)
But AruAni can absolutely have a son, no problem!

“Be quiet, Asteria, or you'll get us caught!”
A little girl dressed in a baby pink nightgown that went way past her tiny feet was crouching behind the wall between the hallway and living room.
Another, dressed in a baby blue nightgown clutching a brown teddy bear, piped up irritably.
“You’re the one that should be quiet, Luna!” She whisper-shouted, “You almost woke up Soleil, and if she would've started wailing, we'd have been caught for sure!”
“Yeah, yeah- look! It’s him!” Luna impatiently waved her sister off and watched the scene in front of her with her blue eyes twinkling in excitement.
Asteria fired back at her twin, her e/c eyes blazing with pure irritation.
The two little girls crouched lower to the floor, daring not to inhale or exhale too deeply as they awed at the majestic creature that they'd only heard of in stories from their mama and papa.
A man so tall that his head almost brushed the ceiling was walking steadily towards their Christmas tree.
He was dressed completely in red with fluffy white trim along his long coat that brushed the floor as he walked.
“Look, Asteria, it’s him! It's really him! It's Santa Claus!” Luna shook her sister’s shoulder while Asteria’s eyes grew to the size of dinner plates.
“He is real…”
Her teddy dropped to the floor.
Both twins leaned on the wall and continued to watch. 
Santa let out a soft chuckle and crouched down to the small, wooden table situated beside the tree. 
A plate of lumpy, misshapen sugar cookies slathered in icing and sprinkles sat atop a decorative Christmas plate with a cold mug of milk next to it. 
With a jolly little laugh, he picked up one of the cookies in his black-gloved fingers and bit into it. A few of the crumbs spilled into his white beard, but he gently wiped them away. To wash down his treat, he took a long sip from the mug that read, For Santa Only. 
“Santa's eating our cookies! He's laughing!” Luna was trying her best to remain undetected, but her six-year old mind could barely contain itself as she almost shook her poor sister’s shoulder out of the socket. 
“I see it- Luna, you're going to tear my arm off!”
The man then let out a soft grunt as he eased himself back up to his full height. The twins would then notice the large, red sack that was slung over his shoulder. 
Santa opened his bag and began pulling out multiple wrapped boxes, varying widely in size and shape. 
“Shit, these kids are too fucking spoiled.” He chuckled lowly to himself. 
“Need some help, Santa?” 
Armin’s sky blue eyes shifted over to your smiling face. Hints of amusement danced at the corners of your lips. You always had been good at sneaking up on him.
“How thoughtful of you, Mrs. Claus, but I think I have it under control.”
You strode further into the room, your matching white-fur trimmed robe trailing along the floor behimd you.
“Hmm, you got any presents for me in that sack?” You fluttered your eyelashes at him flirtatiously while bringing a hand up to trail along the buttons on the front of his coat, skillfully popping the ones closest to his belt open.
“Mmm, not in this one, but in this one I might.” Armin smirked elvishly and took hold of your hand, dragging it down to his crotch. A snort left your lips.
“How about I put another baby in you for Christmas? What do you say, Mommy?”
Your eyes grew twice their size. “Another baby?! Please! Soleil is barely a year old!”
Armin shrugged nonchalantly. “The gift that keeps on giving.” He then burst out into laughter as you started tickling his stomach.
“Hey, stop! What are you trying to do?!” He laughed harder as you dug your nails into his lower abdominals.
“What does it look like I’m doing? I’m tickling Santa Claus because he can’t control that little perverted mouth of his.”
“Mm, baby, I’m pretty sure that it’s a crime to call Santa Claus a pervert on Christmas Eve.”
Luna and Asteria were completely baffled at the sight in front of them. Their mommy was tickling Santa Claus and making him giggle!
“Luna…are you seeing what I’m seeing right now?” Asteria whispered, bringing her teddy up so that it could watch the show as well. Luna could only slowly nod in astonishment.
“It was really sweet of you to do this for them, baby.” You told Armin while gently caressing his face with your hand. “Thank you.”
He took your hand in his gloved one and kissed your knuckles, languidly dragging his lips over them before they reached your huge diamond wedding ring.
“Of course, my love. I’d do anything for my goddess of love and my three little cherubs.”
Taking both of his cheeks in your hands, you slowly brought your lips to your husband’s in a warm, passionate kiss.
Armin reciprocated immediately and wrapped an arm around your waist, slightly dipping you forward.
The twins gasped.
“Luna!”
“Asteria!”
They shouted at each other in unison. “We just saw mama kiss Santa Claus!” 
You and Armin broke away after a few moments of tender bliss, both looking towards the hallway where you could see the shadows of two little girls and a certain teddy bear.
“Well, looks like we’ve been found out.” You giggled and took your thumb to wipe a bit of saliva off of Armin’s bottom lip.
“They are your kids, after all.” He quipped.
“They’re your kids, too!”
“Mhm, but they take after you. Nosy.” Armin moved away with a laugh as you swatted at him. 
Bringing you back to him by wrapping both arms around your waist this time, he pecked your cheeks and in retaliation, you licked his nose. Those baby blues turned to a deep royal hue then.
“You’d better stop before Mommy and Santa Claus end up doing a lot more than just kissing.”

"I can't wait to see you! The kids will be so happy!" You squeal on the phone to your husband.
He's been away on business but was able to catch an earlier flight and will be home sooner then expected.
"Come on kids, daddies coming home!" You tell them, earning cheers.
You race around making things nice for his arrival.
Out of the airport and in a taxi, he sighs. He can't wait to see you either. It's only been a week but it feels much longer away from you and the kids.
Once home he walks up the drive and sees the door open as you spot him.
"Daddy!" Your 3 year old son and 5 year old daughter run to him with you following behind.
All the fatigue of travel washes away in an instant.
"Chipmunks!" He drops his bags and leans down just in time for his daughter to jump into his arms, his son wrapping himself around his leg.
They giggle at the name and babble over each other. He picks up his son too and carries them both over to you, who is smiling widely at the sight.
"Hello, sweetheart." You lean in between the kids and kiss your husband firmly.
"Hi, beautiful." He smiles as you part, and you go grab the bag on the ground to go inside.
"Happy Daddies Day!" He's barely in the house and the kids are wiggling out of his grasp, running over to get the pictures they colored for him.
"Wow! This is so good! Great job! I love it!" He says in an over enthusiastic manner that matches their excitement.
"I cleaned my room!" Your daughter says proudly.
"You did? I bet it looks amazing!" He picks her up to kiss her cheeks, getting more giggles as she kisses him back.
"Daddy." Your son takes his hand and leads him to the kitchen.
"Whoa! What is this?" He turns to you.
"Your welcome home dinner. We just finished recently." You barely made it with the help the kids put in, but they wanted to be involved.
You go over to the oven and pull out something that smells delicious.
"And dessert? What did I do to deserve this?" He comes over to you and gives another kiss, this one a little more intimate, making the kids snicker.
"You're the best dad in the world. Best husband. Everything." You say in between pecks.
He smiles as he holds you.
"Hear that kids? You think I'm the best dad?" He looks over to the little ones who are sitting at the table expectantly.
"Yeah!" They agree. He's the best dad ever.
You all eat dinner and dessert, try to have a conversation in between the children's interruptions, clean up and put the homemade colored pictures on the refrigerator.
The kids are still too excited to sleep so you all snuggle on the couch together under a large blanket.
It's not long before exhaustion hits the love of your life and he's snoring right along with your sleeping son and daughter.
You watch them sleep, one child on each side, buried into the father they love so much.
You brush their hair back and lean closer to kiss your husbands cheek.
"Welcome home, my love."
You rest your head on his shoulder and reach an arm his middle.
He hums in response and nuzzles into your neck.
You stay like that half the night and only awaken when you're being lifted off the couch.
He's gotten the kids into their own bed and now you in yours, getting in beside you.
You let out a sleepy yawn. "Love you." You mumble as you both get comfortable in each others embrace.
"Love you too." He says with a kiss to your forehead.
As far as he's concerned, every day with his family is a holiday.
Because they all deserve domestic fluffy happiness.

KENNY, KUCHEL, AND MIKASA’S DAD HEADCANONS
Because I haven’t done this in so long😅😅
Ok so I like to think that Kenny and Kuchel are the older siblings to Mikasa’s father (cause I’m obsessed with the idea of it) and Kenny is like, 4 years older then Kuchel while he’s 7 years older then Mikasa’s dad.
Growing up, they were very playful but intense, so much so, they fought over every little thing and black eyes and bloody noses were shared
I like to think their parents were like amazing???
But RIP to them ig cause they died when Kenny was like 10🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️ (Kuchel being 6 and Mikasa’s dad being 3 or so)
They stuck together and as they got older, they got sneaker cause they’re Ackerman’s, what do you expect (A MP caught them stealing bread or something and they straight up flung shit at him)
Because of the death of their parents, Kenny started to become real distant with his brother and sister and when he was like 14???? That’s when he just disappeared and soon became known as Kenny the Ripper
It’s a lot more creepy with a 14 year old kid tryna kill you with a “Here’s Johnny” type grin
Because Kenny left, Kuchel had to pick up the slack and she started to waitress at a nearby tavern (at such a young age too😭😭😭 I LOVE YOU KUCHEL)
Luckily nothing bad happened
But it wasn’t until she was 18 that she decided to become a prostitute because a coworker said she’d be making a lot more to support herself and her brother
So she did, AND I WISH SHE HADNT😖😖😖😖😭😭😭
Mikasa’s dad ended up getting some shitty jobs has he got older but it wasn’t until he found out Kuchel was pregnant that he finally picked one job
When Kuchel was 19 she found out she was pregnant with Levi and her baby daddy died (god rest his soul) and instead of going to the surface with her potential hubby, baby, and brother, she was stuck in the Underground
Mikasa’s dad was like 16 when Levi was born and he was like “woah… it’s a baby” and Kuchel was like “no shit”
I do like to think that Mikasa’s dad was present in his nephews life until Levi was like 1 or so
But I think it would be so interesting to like, have Mikasa’s dad working a shit job in the underground and MP’s seeing him and being like “this one’s good looking… let’s give him grass”
“Hey kid… wanna leave this shit hole?”
“Yeah that’d be great… but I got this sister and nephew-”
“No… only you😘😘🥺🥺”
Kuchel was pissed when she found out that Mikasa’s dad was on the fence about leaving the Underground. She forced him to leave, claiming one of them needed to live.
So he did, though he wishes he could help her and Levi
That was the last Kuchel and Mikasa’s dad spoke
Should I do a part 2???😎😎😎

Lil ficlet of either Levi or Armin having a chat with a cat that's been following them all day? 😺
This is the cutest prompt. And since I know you're a Jearmin enjoyer, I couldn't help but throw in a tiny bit of Jearmin. I hope you enjoy!
Armin had been going about his daily duties, trying to be as productive as possible so that he could enjoy his evening to himself. However, something had been slowing him down a bit. No matter where he went, there was always a tiny, cute kitten following right behind him.
At first, he didn't think much of it, but as the cat followed him from building to building, patiently waiting for him to come out again before it resumed its mission to seemingly learn his daily routine, he became slightly attached to it. It wasn't that Armin was never an animal person. He loved spending time with animals, especially cats, but he simply didn't have much time today to wonder why this tiny white kitten with cream-colored ears and tail and the prettiest blue eyes was following him.
Finally, after he'd completed all of his duties for the day and the cat was still diligently following him, he decided he would stop and spend some time with this little creature who clearly wanted his attention.
"Hello there, little guy. You're so sweet. You've been following me all day so you must not have a home. Are you hungry?" Armin asks, but the cat just stares up at him with those big, blue eyes. Logically, he knows the cat can't answer him, but he finds some kind of enjoyment in talking to the kitten anyway.
"Not very talkative, I guess. That's alright. I wish I had some food to give you, but I don't think I have anything that cats would like...Maybe I can find you something. Would you like that?"
Somehow, Armin finds some comfort in talking to this tiny kitten. He knows he'll never get any kind of answer, but he still finds it calming after the long day of meetings and the stress of his everyday life. He'd thought about getting a pet before, but he knows with his busy schedule it would be difficult to take care of an animal, especially when they go on expeditions. Still, the thought of having a cat to come home to and cuddle with makes him happy.
"Hm, come on, we'll get something for you." Armin reaches down toward the kitten and holds his hand out so that the little creature can sniff him and determine if he's a friend or foe. However, judging by the diligent way that the kitten had been following him all day, he's sure it had already decided. Cautiously, the cat sniffs at his fingers before rubbing his head against Armin's hand. A surefire sign that he'd been accepted.
"Can I pick you up? I promise I'll be gentle." He reaches out with his other hand and gently lifts the kitten, bringing him up to his chest and cradling him against his body. "Oh, you're so sweet! I shouldn't be doing this. You'll convince me to take you home. What will Jean think?"
Armin laughs to himself. He knows that Jean would likely be overjoyed if Armin brought a kitten home, but he just can't justify it while they still have fighting to do. The least he can do is get the cat a nice meal before he goes on his way.
He carries the cat to the marketplace, and the whole time the tiny kitten in his arms just enjoys the ride. Armin thinks he can even feel the rumbles of a few gentle purrs while he's walking, and it melts his heart that the cat is seemingly already so comfortable with him.
"Hm, I think I'm in trouble. I'm not sure I can just leave you out on the street, little one. Even if I get you food now, I'd worry about you after." Armin sighs. The internal conflict going on inside his mind right now is a difficult one. He really wants to save this kitten. Give it a name and a home and all the love in the world, but he just doesn't think he can do all that right now. Still, the idea of taking the cat home, just for now, just until they can find someone else to take it, is tempting.
"Alright, here's the deal little guy. I'll get you some food and you can come stay the night with me, but I'll have to find you a permanent home tomorrow. How does that sound?"
Armin looks down at the kitten as he speaks, and once he's done, the tiniest, sweetest little meow leaves the kitten and his heart melts. Oh, he's in way too deep already.
"Oh, I think that was a yes. Alright, let's go then."
He gathers food, and a few other supplies including a litter box and a few toys, and he's on his way with his newfound friend. There's a little bit of excitement sparking in his chest while he makes his way home. How will Jean react? He knows that the other man loves animals and cats just as much as he does, but he's also sure that Jean will have the same concerns as him.
As soon as he gets to his shared apartment with Jean, he walks in cautiously, trying to discern if his boyfriend is home or not. They both have busy schedules during the day, and he almost thinks it would be better if Jean comes home after the kitten is already settled in.
"Jean, are you here?" Armin calls out as he closes the door behind him. He sets the supplies that he'd bought for the kitten on the floor and then does the same with the cat itself. "I have...kind of a surprise for you."
For a moment, Armin isn't sure that Jean is there, but shortly after he finishes speaking, he hears the bedroom door open and Jean walking down the short hallway to the living room.
"What kind of sur-" Jean's sentence is cut short when his eyes land on a tiny white kitten with big blue eyes, and Armin can instantly see the taller man melt at the sight. "A cat?! Where'd you get it?!"
"Um...he's been following me all day...I couldn't just leave him on the street, Jean. He's hungry, and he's super sweet. I thought we could just keep him for the night and look for his owners or maybe a new home for him in the morning." Armin tries his best to explain the situation in an understandable way, but it doesn't seem like Jean needs much convincing. The tall, burly, soldier of a man is instantly swooning and lowering himself to the floor so that he can try to gain the cat's affections.
"Come here, little guy. I promise I won't hurt you." Jean mimics what Armin had done earlier, holding out his hand to allow the cat to sniff him, and sure enough, he's also accepted by their new friend. The kitten instantly trots over and makes himself comfortable in Jean's lap.
"Oh, he likes you! That's so adorable!" Armin says, a huge smile on his face as he watches his boyfriend bond with the cat. Deep down, he already knows they'll be adding this little fluffy kitten to their small family, but he doesn't want to get too eager yet.
"Armin, we can't get rid of him. I love him already, don't you?" Jean asks, looking up from the floor at Armin while he gently strokes the kitten. "He's falling asleep in my lap. I think he already adopted us."
"I...yeah, but what are we gonna do with him when we have to go on expeditions? He can't stay home by himself." Armin argues, and he knows he has a point by the way Jean's face falls at his words. It doesn't take long for him to perk back up again, though, as he comes up with a plan almost instantly.
"My mom can watch him. We can drop him off with her before we leave on expeditions and pick him up when we get back. It'll be like a weekend at grandma's house for our little guy." Jean answers, smiling brightly as he looks down at the now-sleeping kitten.
"That...could work. I hadn't thought about that." Armin answers, and he can't help the smile that's spreading across his face just at the thought of it."
"I'll go pay Mom a visit tomorrow and ask her about it, but I'm sure she'll be fine with it. She loves animals too."
"Alright, well...I guess the next step is coming up with a name for him, right? What do you think fits him?" Armin asks, and before he can even think twice he's taking a seat on the floor right beside Jean and lovingly staring down at the sleeping cat in his boyfriend's lap.
"Hm...what about...Nutmeg? Because his ears and tail are that light brown, cream color. That's cute, right?" Jean asks, looking at Armin expectantly.
"We shouldn't name him before we even know if we can keep him, Jean..." Armin half-heartedly argues, but he knows that they'll find a way to keep the kitten, at this point. They're both already in too deep.
"Come on, Armin, you know we're keeping him. We're both attached." Jean answers, and Armin concedes.
"Nutmeg is a cute name, I like it." He answers, and Jean smiles so big that Armin thinks it looks a little painful.
"Nutmeg it is, then. We're gonna give you the best home, little guy. Just wait and see."
Armin smiles to himself as he watches Jean gently stroke the sleeping kitten, and he wonders how in the world he got so lucky to find a man as sweet as this. He thinks that their tiny family is shaping up to be perfect, and he knows they'll both be able to create so many special memories with their new kitten. He can't wait to see what they are.
Ahhh, there we go! I just love Jearmin with a kitten, it's adorable! I hope you don't mind that I threw a little bit of them into this prompt! That cat is going to be the most spoiled pet in all of the walls. lol

I have a blond brother
My mother died in front of me
She had the anime dead mom hair style
My father is the anti-hero-villain without being good and 50% antagonist not human anymore
He kind of gave me his ability and disappeared
WWII is literally half of the plot
I lost a leg while being reckless then an arm to help a blond cinnamonroll but it made me stronger
My superior is a raven haired man highly worshipped by fangirls and who can kill you in a snap of finger
Am I talking about Edward Elric or Eren Jeager you don't know
