Thinking about how post-war Levi would let his hair grow out a bit.
Without the constant rush and stress of military life weighing him down, he lets himself relax a little bit. He finds himself paying more attention to the things around him; Gaby and Falco are constantly visiting him, he's started his own garden in his backyard and he's a frequent vistor to the farmer's market just down the street.
Next thing he knows, his hair is tickling his ears a bit more than usual, strands of dark hair constantly falling over his eyes. The feeling is strange, but it's also...freeing.
Surprisingly, he trusts Jean enough to give his hair a simple cut— something to reshape and style the new length he's grown. Rest assured, the retired Captain was constantly threatening his former subordinate with a good whack to the head with his cane if he so much as messed up the haircut.
When Jean is done and hands over a mirror for Levi to judge the new cut, he can't help but notice the subtle upward quirk of his former Captain's lips.
He just seems so...peaceful.
