[ So far, Levi's policy had been handing out the magical Safety Pins to his brats and subordinates that show up, but not Titan Shifters, Armin being a notable exception to it because Levi trusted him enough to assume a day where he needs to take him out would not come. Eren is... complicated. Levi does believe him, but he's also aware of his determination to continue on the same path if he were to be sent home. Either way, Reiner probably has him covered already. ]
[ And that leaves Falco. A sweet, good-hearted kid who's not technically one of his but has managed to find his way into Levi's heart anyway, not unlike Gabi. Hell, at this point, he's fairly fond of Annie and even Reiner, too, though he doesn't play at being their caretaker. They're not that close, even if the amount of similarities he keeps discovering with the former is somewhat amusing. Falco does actually live with him, though, and while he no doubt has the regenaration ability, he's been careful about showing anyone his Titan. ]
[ Probably for the best, but Levi does hope he's not leaving himself more vulnerable than he needs to. ]
[ And so, one day at dinner, he'll be casually sliding a Safety Pin across the table to him. Hopefully he's seen then in the shop and knows what it does already, but if not, he'll give him a quick explanation. ]
...You should wear this when you go out into the Segments.
[ He knows you've been questing, buddy. He won't tell you to stop, but he'd like some more safety measures in place, hence. ]
[ Falco's surprised when Levi slid the Safety Pin over, tilting his head. Honestly, he isn't quite sure what it does, though he's sure he's seen them before. It's not often that Levi gives him something but Falco never wants material things that often either. Even living with Levi he still stays as independent as he can to not be a burden. ]
What is it?
[ No matter what it was if Levi wants him to he will wear it. ]
[ That's unfortunate, because Levi would absolutely buy him (almost) whatever he wanted, for school or otherwise. As far as he's concerned, the boy is basically his kid now, too, especially after (mostly) living in his house for months. ]
It's got protective magic. You can activate it with a word and it'll put a shield around you.
[ He'll explain in as few words as possible how to set the codeword and stuff (which I don't actually know how it works, but the characters do!) ]
