Even though Mikasa was entirely confident she could have gotten onto the exterior porch of this "apartment" she'd been assigned to, using her maneuver gear, she took the stairs. For one thing, she wasn't sure she could spare the gas; she was still juggling worries about her reserves with concerns about zipping around the town and causing a panic. Soldiers weren't allowed to use 3DMG inside cities, except in emergencies or in the course of their duties, for fear of scaring the civilian populace. Even though the people here didn't know what they meant, it was enough to convince her against it. At least for now. At least until she secured a reserve of gas.
So she came to room 710, the last room on the last floor of the tall building, by the normal, slow route.
She rapped on the door out of politeness, even though that was, indeed, her own name on the door. It was a little unsettling, having this place prepared for her in a way that suggested permanence. She didn't want permanence. She wanted to find Eren, before he got himself killed.
Once she had rapped twice, she lowered her hand, and almost unconsciously took up a relaxed, military-seeming stance, hands folded behind her back. She was still in her uniform, tan jacket covered by the olive green traveling cape, all adorned with the blue and white winged emblem of the Scouting Legion. The most unusual thing, though, by far, was the black harness, reminiscent of climbing gear, holding on the two large metal rectangles just below her waist, the largest and most obtrusive part of her gear. She'd yet to take it off—she wasn't sure she would any time except to sleep, not for several days at least. Not until she felt safe here, and who knew when that would be.
