. . . I don’t call you Elly.

[ unwanted intimacy much???? this bozo??? he’ll punch him. in his mind. ]

What a spacey mother— Your sleep spells don’t work long distance either, do they?

[fiddlestick]

I know, and I really appreciate you for that.

[Legit the only people that call him that is his family. And he wants to keep it that way]

Aha, I'm afraid they don't, no.

(1/2)

[usurpers]

[ eren suddenly looks like he’s realized something, before raising a fist in half-awe and staring down. ]

I think I got one . . .

[ right here, in his fist ]

[usurpers]

[ he pauses, looking completely serious and deadpan— before he starts smiling.

he’s kidding. ]

It’s not violence, don’t worry.

[fiddlestick]

[Elliot was just halfway through saying "Eren no-" when he smiles and reassures him he's kidding. NO PUNCHING THE ANNOYING GUY]

Jeez... haha, you had me going.

What do you mean?

[usurpers]

Think I need a break from that.

[ violently wanting to punch people, he means. let’s save that for evil forces and terrorism against the good of all people. ]

Maybe just— [ he shrugs. ] Ignore it, I dunno. Like the rubber chicken bearing test.

[ eren . . . is that you ]

[fiddlestick]

[Wow Eren, that is way more restraint than Elliot's used to from him. He looks briefly surprised, before he smiles and gives a soft little laugh.

He takes a moment to look for something on his phone, then drops this video link into the text chat window of their conversation.]

Eheh, maybe imagine this sound when he talks?

[usurpers]

[ tolerance has to be high when you’re dealing with civilians . . . the question for eren is how much farther

but with the link open, his face still remains and watches the video through screen split. and— he only smiles when he’s done, looking up at elliot with a light chuckle and almost a breath of relief that he got through that, on point. ]

This brings me back, I trained so much for this.

[ and after a second . . . link! ]

Try this one.

[fiddlestick]

Hehe, and your training's paying off too!

[Which yep, he'll click that link and watch that video. Only Eren who is good at resisting laughter- Elliot laughs way too easily and breaks into giggles after trying to hold it in for a good second and a half.]

[usurpers]

[ he just . . . takes the minute to watch him laugh, watch his teeth flash back at him and just admire it with longing eyes that smile just as much as his lips do. he brushes a lock of hair back, getting long enough to bun up someday soon. he’s going to just. snap a picture of elliot doing the cutest thing alive. it’s not on silent though, so. shutter sounds. ]

This one’s for me. I love when you smile like that.

[ he is just in mush mode please hold him ]

[fiddlestick]

[He catches the sound of the shutter and is immediately surprised and self-conscious. He blushes and stammers]

H-Hey! Not fair when I haven't had a proper shower in a week!

[Shut up Elliot you're a water mage you've been doing way better than most hygiene wise]

[usurpers]

[ wHOpS. but eren cannot help the airy chuckle that puffs out of his cheeks, holding the phone with both hands to get a better look at the snapshot at the corner. look at him all cheeky—! ]

That’s not fair, you look way better than I do!

[ he loves it!! he’s flustered! blushing!!! he’s going to make this one burst . . . so that it moves for three seconds . . . ]

[fiddlestick]

[SO UNFAIR. He'll sure get a blushing and flustered gif of Elliot]

D-Do not! You look so rugged and manly right now!

[usurpers]

[ internal screaming. first at his brand new gif, to always look at when he’s alone and missing him, and then a second one when . . . oh wow is this what an epiphany feels like ]

—For real? You like it?

[fiddlestick]

[He gives a little huff, feeling embarrassed]

Eheh...I like you with any look. But...yeah. I do.

[usurpers]

[ wow now he’s the one looking embarrassed. he didn’t expect to get like beyoncé and wake up like this ]

That’s— C’mon, I wasn’t ready for, you, like that, damn.

[ this is still very unfair!!!! ]

[fiddlestick]

[ANNNND...shutter sound! So snapping his own picture.]

Hehe.

[usurpers]

Hey— [ the elliot that’s looking back at him . . . is a damn sly elliot. eren probably blinked or was right in the middle of talking oh my god. ] How much of that was on purpose?.

[ and while he’s in his pictures— right, this one. he sends the selfie he and dave took in front of the sky lights. ]

[fiddlestick]

None of it! I just saw an opportunity.

[And then he looks surprised when he gets sent a selfie of him and Dave]

Awww you two look great. I didn't know you took a selfie like that too.

[usurpers]

[ a playful opportunist is muttered for a bit, but he’s still smiling. ]

We really need to group up again for TGIF’s. Too?

[ he wants to see . . . let him see . . . ]

[fiddlestick]

I agree. It could be a celebration after this is over!

[He'll upload a photo. It's John and him talking a selfie while at camp]

Too!

[usurpers]

. . . Hah.

[ man— how cute. him and john over there while he and dave were here. he gives a fond sigh through the nose and saves it instantly.

. . . a little destabilized without their stabilizers, but. ]

It’d be cool if we could all go on a trip somewhere. Except together and less monster magic.

[fiddlestick]

[ Just seeing that reaction from Eren makes sending the photo worth it. ]

That would be really cool. Think next time they'll send us to a resort?

[usurpers]

[ eren huffs our a half laugh. ]

If it’s having problems. [ not that he is complaining about giving the world a helping hand to not, you know, die, but. they’ll never send them to a resort. ]

You’d like a resort?

[ eren was thinking the wilderness but uh ]

[fiddlestick]

Heh, you're probably right. [No way they are gonna get sent on vacation.]

Maybe not a resort resort, I don't need a tourist trap. But somewhere relaxing and some sights to see! Oh, and access to electricity and indoor plumbing. That's a must.

[He's willing to rough it for a mission, but for fun? Nooo way]
