track 10: intolerant asshole
“What is that smell?” Y/N hums out, furrowing her brows as she walks down the stairs and into the kitchen area. She covers her nose, an appalled look on her face as she sees smoke fill the room. A quick opening of the windows and doors. She glared towards Porco, who stands at the stove with tongs and hot oil splashing everywhere. “Jesus! Porco, what the Hell are you doing?”
He leaps back in surprise at the oil jumping out of the pan and towards him. “I—I’m cooking dinner! The fuck does it look like?” He retorts in a rough tone, loud. He suddenly gets oil on his hand, making him pull away from the stove. “Shit! Ugh, I fucking hate this.”
Y/N lets out a big sigh, grabbing a towel and walking towards him. She pushes him away from the burning stove, placing the towel on his arm before turning the fire down easily. Porco frowns at her in distaste, wiping the oil off of his skin.
“I can’t believe you’re 23 and don’t know how to fry things.” She scoffs out, taking the tongs from his hand as the oil calms down. She pulls out a very crisp and burnt piece of tempura. A dreaded look on both of their faces. She glares towards the drummer from Marley. “Oh my God. Porco. Where is Pieck?”
“Grabbing something at the store.” He replies, sitting on the kitchen counter, “Pieck said to fry it until it was brown.”
“You sure she didn’t mean golden brown?” Y/N huffs out, not bothering to look at him. She wipes the oil off from the counter.
Porco squints at her before pulling up his conversation with the vocalist of his band. Oh. “Ugh, whatever. She’ll be back soon, calm your shit.” He grunts out, turning away from her.
Y/N rolls her eyes, grabbing another piece of tempura to fry. She dips it into the oil gently. “You should be thanking me, you could’ve burnt the house down, asshole.” She huffs, annoyed, “Do you always need a babysitter? Is that the real reason you got sent here?”
Porco throws his towel at the back of her shoulders. “Shut the fuck up, you got sent here with your babysitter as well.” He scowls, watching as she picks up the towel and glares back at him, “If you’re so good at cooking, then why don’t you cook dinner, huh?”
In return, Y/N slaps the towel against his crossed arms. As he yelps at the contact, the bassist turns back to the oil and checking on the food. “Lazy bastard. You still gotta’ help.” She huffs out, hand on her hip, “Can you at least get off your ass and make the sauce for the tempura? The ingredients are on the bench there.”
Porco goes to argue and say he isn’t lazy, but ends up just rolling his eyes and slips himself off of the marble top. He slides passed Y/N, mumbling about how annoying this was. He grabs a saucepan from the cupboard and turns on the stove beside her. As the water begins to boil, Y/N pulls out the tempura from the oil and onto a plate with the previously (kind of burnt) pieces. She continues.
“I was wondering what was taking so long for dinner to be ready.” She huffs out, tilting her head towards Porco beside her. He closes his eyes and breathes in, and out. “Do you live alone?”
“Yeah.” He responds.
“Wow. How the Hell are you alive if you can’t even cook?” She says, surprised. He clicks his tongue at her. “Let me guess, you order takeout every dinner and spend your mornings at someone else’s house so that they can make food for you?”
He hates how she already knows how he lives. “You know what?” He grumbles out, “How the fuck would you know?”
“Because that’s literally how I lived during university.” She claims, pulling out tempura and putting some in, “I was too busy to cook so I leached off Armin.”
Porco doesn’t respond to that. He only makes a mental note to pick up some recipes when he gets home. Maybe he shouldn’t be ordering takeout every night.
It’s quiet between them for a while. Until Y/N speaks up again.
“Do you really think I’ve got no stage presence?” She questions, still irritated by his statement.
“I don’t fucking know, I don’t watch your live performances.” He argues, shaking his head and stirring the sauce. Y/N glances at him from the side before frying the last pieces of tempura. It goes quiet again. He sighs loudly. “Zeke watches Paradís. I didn’t even know you guys existed until that stupid New Years party.”
She chuckles at that, “I only know you because you’re on Jean’s hitlist.”
“I’m on his what?”
“He hates any drummer that isn’t him.” Y/N clears up, putting the finished tempura on the plate, “I’ll admit, after you made fun of me, I watched some of your best live performances. Gotta’ say, I wasn’t impressed. Hell, even Reiner has better stage presence than you.”
“Fuck off.” He scoffs, shrugging his shoulders at her before taking the sauce off the heat and putting it into four separate bowls, “You’re so pesky.”
“Intolerant asshole.” She mumbles back. Porco angrily opens the utensils drawer, pulling out what they needed while speaking under his breath about how he hated her so much.
A small smile lands on Y/N’s lips at his reaction before they fall into a silence once more.
A couple minutes later, the food is ready and the two of them are setting the table. They don’t bother saying anything to the other. Y/N sets the glasses in the wrong spot, Porco fixes them and she puts them back. The two glare at each with with such hatred before the door opens.
“I’m back! I got some drinks, but no alcohol since Y/N and Jean are practicing while on vacation.” Pieck sings out, walking into the dining room to see the both of them standing her at opposite ends of the table. She looks between the two. “Oh? Were you helping Porco cook, Y/N?”
She retorts, rubbing the back of her neck as she sets the tteobokki down, “Uh, mhm. He burnt a whole lot of the tempura though.”
Porco throws a tissue at her.
“Oh my, is that true?” Pieck gasps, looking over to see the tempura. It’s correct. She looks towards Porco, who crosses his arms over his chest. “It’s alright, Porco, I know that you don’t cook very often.”
“That much is evident.” Y/N chuckles.
“Shut up, loser.” Porco grunts.
“Enough, you two.” Enters Jean from the basement, where they were previously practicing. He looks towards the table. “Oh, that looks great. Good job, Y/N.”
“Thanks.” She smiles, flipping off Porco.
Jean then takes a seat after Pieck and Porco do, making sure himself and Y/N sat on the other side of the table from the other two. He glances between the two cooks, wondering if earlier was just the two being passive aggressive or not.
He watches as Y/N asks for the tteobokki, which is on Marley’s side. Porco squints at her and sighs loudly, moving the bowl the tiniest inch closer to Y/N. She stares at him. And gets up to throw the empty plastic bottle of soda at his head.
“Hey!” Jean gets up as well, taking the bottle from her hand and jabbing her in the side, “Stop that, you dumbass. Just eat and then go to bed, it’s late.”
Y/N huffs back at him, “Fine.”
“And Porco.” Pieck sighs, tilting her head to the side as she hands the bowl of tteobokki to Y/N, “You said you’d be nice.”
Porco looks at Pieck quickly before staring back at his food. “Whatever.”
The four sit in awkward silence as Porco and Y/N stare daggers at one another.
This would be a surprising vacation.

track 2: you better be joking
“Okay Armin, I think you’ve had enough.” Y/N says, a small smile on her lips as she pulls his freshly open beer bottle out of his hands. He was more of a wine guy, but Eren said that he had to try something new for the new year. Dumb idea, but Armin fell for it. Y/N hands the bottle to Jean, who happily accepts. “Do you even know where we are?”
The blonde nods his head, leaning towards Y/N beside him pointing at her lazily. “We… are at a party. And you, heh, tried making out with Eren’s brother…!” He sang, a laugh going along with it.
Eren throws a chocolate wrapper at Y/N. Mikasa shrugs her shoulders as she drinks from her glass. “I mean, he isn’t wrong. You’ve clearly got a thing for older men.” She says, making Eren and Jean nod in agreement.
She rolls her eyes and puts Armin back into his chair. “Whatever, you guys can babysit him. I’m gonna’ go get some fresh air.” She states, standing up with Armin trying to follow after.
“Don’t be gone too long, countdown is starting soon.” Jean warns her, taking another drink. Y/N throws him a thumbs up.
As Eren takes hold of his best friend, he calls out, “If I see you talking to Zeke—”
She flips him off.
Ymir and Historia were a well-known couple. Historia featured in countless movies and Ymir’s worked as her manager. For their fame, there was always a loud and huge party to accomodate. Y/N kept in contact with Historia and Ymir, having gone to the same high school like the rest of them. She’d seen Sasha, who was now the owner of a highly-acclaimed restaurant. Annie worked as a fight choreographer and taught self-defense on the side. Hell, she’d even seen her upperclassman Bertholdt around here, and he worked with animals.
It was very nice to see everyone in the same place again.
Y/N was guilty though, she was in fact seeking out Zeke. Part of it was because she’d never met another band member who played bass. In her two years of playing music, she had only encountered an instrumental band tonight. Others were purely singers. It was nice to have someone to relate to on a work level. The other part of her was looking for Zeke because Eren getting angry is pretty funny.
Y/N checked her watch. It was 11:56 now. Midnight would strike soon. Her plan was to just say a quick ‘happy new year’ and go back to celebrate with her friends. She wanted to be polite, and also return the pick he was showing to her that she didn’t manage to return.
Mikasa said they should probably leave after the countdown, so she didn’t have any other time to return the object.
So she heads towards the glass door to the balcony, where she thinks he is.
11:58, she bumps into someone else.
“Oh, I’m sorry—You’re Y/N!” A woman with dark hair says, stepping away from colliding with her shoulder again, “My name is Pieck, I’m the singer from Marley. You’ve met our bassist, Zeke, right? Do you think he’s attractive?”
Y/N blinks at her before forming a gentle smile. “Zeke? Oh, um, I suppose. I’m Y/N, it’s nice to meet you.” She says, shaking her hand quickly, “You look amazing tonight, I should say.”
Pieck grins back, placing a friendly hand on Y/N’s arm. “You’re too sweet. You’re looking beautiful, as you always do.” She compliments, “The band sees Paradís’ live performances on YouTube a lot, Zeke likes to keep up with his brother’s news.”
She can feel her face heating up. Pieck was so nice to her, she didn’t know what to expect. She could sit and talk to her for hours, but Y/N finds herself rejecting the idea. “That reminds me, do you know where Zeke is? I have something of his that I need to return.” She states, showing the distinct pick in her palm.
“Oh, he’s just out that way. The other balcony.” Pieck responds, pointing to the left.
11:59 already, closing to 12, she thanks Pieck and makes her way through the crowd forming in the room.
10!
It’s decently filled, all for the countdown that had begun for the minute to pass.
9!
People are pairing up and Y/N is keeping her eyes on the pick in her hand.
8!
She hears Historia cheering loudly and some flashes go off. People are filming and taking photos.
7!
Over some shoulders, she sees that the TV is streaming the city fireworks show.
6!
She looks up for a second as her shoulder collides with someone, making the pick fall from her hand.
5!
A small noise leaves the person’s mouth as they see the pick fall as well. They catch it quickly.
4!
“Why do you have this?” He mumbles out, furrowed brows as he inspects the familiar object.
3!
“I was just returning it.” She replies, looking back to the person she had bumped into, “Can I have it back?”
2!
He raises his brow at her before slowly placing the pick back into her palm.
1!
“Thanks—”
“HAPPY NEW YEAR!” Cheers right out across the room.
Someone accidentally knocks Y/N’s back and she’s nudged forward, resulting in Porco steadying her out with a hand holding hers with the pick, and the other gently on her upper arm.
“Jesus.” He grunts, looking around to see people kissing and cheering for the new year, “It’s like they can’t see anything.”
She retorts, shrugging her shoulder, “Everyone is drunk off their ass.” Then, she gets a good look at the man in front of her. “Oh, you’re Porco.”
“Mhm.” He huns half-heartedly. Y/N raises a brow at him before ignoring it. Maybe he was just pissed off that he missed the countdown. Everyone else seemed to be enjoying themselves.
Y/N looks around as well, standing up straight and clearing her throat, “Sorry again.”
He huffs back, peeling his hands from her, “Yeah, whatever.” And walks off.
’That was rude,’ She tells herself, squinting at him, ’I guess Jean has good instincts about people. Porco’s kind of mean.’
“Did I miss the countdown?” Zeke questions, standing beside her. He smelt like smoke, invading the area.
Y/N responds, “Yeah, sadly. Just met your drummer, he seems to be in a bad mood.”
Zeke waves his hand dismissively, fixing his glasses. “Oh, you get used to it. Porco always got something to whine about.” He recalls, making her grin.
“Right, uh, here.” She says, dropping the pick in his hand, “I forgot to return it, and we’re leaving soon. It’s was great meeting you, Zeke.”
He nods his head, watching her walk off. “Tell Eren I said 'hi’, we should catch up.” He says to her.
Y/N chuckles, “Will do!”
When she makes it back to her friends, Jean tosses her jacket over her shoulders. “There you are, idiot. Come on, we told Ymir that we’re going since Armin is dead-ass drunk.” He says, nudging her to the exit.
She watches as Mikasa and Eren holding Armin up by his shoulders, apologising to other party guests around them.
“That poor guy.” Y/N says, slipping her jacket on, “He’s gonna’ have such a big headache later.”
“The fucker stole Eren’s drink when he left to grab some water. I swear to God, I’ve never seen a guy down a beer so quick.” Jean states, shaking his head, “Happy New Year, by the way.”
Y/N smiles. “Happy New Year, Jean.” She says back, giving him a gentle side-hug.
The car ride is pretty funny, considering how drunk Armin is. It’s been nearly half an hour of this entertainment. Their private driver has had to shut the window between him and the passengers because Armin keeps trying to distract him. Eren pulls out his friend’s phone, going on some game and handing it back to him.
With Armin distracted, the others can rest. Y/N is asleep on Mikasa’s shoulder, out like a light. She’d spent so much time catching up with other people, she exhausted herself out. Mikasa was also tired, but awake, Eren trying to keep her warm as Jean watches Armin’s Twitter Feed.
Something catches him eye, making him pull out his own phone to check for himself.
“What the fuck…?” He murmurs.
“What is it, horseface?” Eren questions, earning a kick from the drummer. But he sees anyway, the newest tweet from one of the country’s biggest news pages. “Are you kidding me?”
Mikasa’s turn to read. She squints her eyes for a bit before sighing out, “That’s so stupid.”
“There’s gonna’ be so much talk today.” Jean sinks into his seat.
The three of them hear Armin giggling in his spot. And a few seconds later, they check their phones to see a tweet from Armin wishing everyone a happy new year.
