[ that sounds sort of the same as “magic” so he just looks . . . really confused!! but equally amazed at the same time!! he wants to look like he gets it though, so elliot gets an understanding (haha) nod as he keeps pressing the button and—
for off into the distance is a louder click, and the flash of lights. you can imagine the beeline that happens here.
holy crap it’s . . . something in him tells him this is really cool???? he opens the door and it rises. if you know what a kid at a candy store looks like
you’re seeing it now ]
This is it?
[ IT’S AGGRESSIVE AND SPORTY AND HE’s STICKING HIS HEAD IN LIKE HE’S FOUND EL DOURADO AND— why yes he did just open the door and didn’t get his memories back. ]
[ the man with amnesia who thinks he’s from the middle ages is expected to drive
yes
or did you think the witch would give something that easy ]
Maybe it’s something in here—
[ cue him cautiously crawling into the front seat and getting completely lost with the buttons and screen on the dashboard, poking the key around like it’s sure to open something all while, you know. keep pressing that button. constantly. this is hilarious but eren is wowed. ]
He worries his lip, looking very unsure as Eren climbs into the car. God. He's going to have to drive it. He moves around the car to sit on the passenger side. ]
H-Here, you want to do this-
[He'll gesture for him to set the key down in it's little slot]
Set it there, and you'll be able to hit...this button [pointing to the ignition button] to get it started.
sitting in the front seat is very different from crawling around in it and completely awestruck by the technology that is buttons. eren copies elliot when he sits upright to do the same, looking at everything and touching the wheel after the key’s in place, looking all over the damn dashlike
okay. okay, this button. usurper nods and goes for it, giving a slight jolt of surprise when it ignites the engine.
driving 101, with elliot craig, welcome to jackass ]
[ you’re going to be here all night if you write that out!!!! either way, he looks like he’s got it?? seat belt buckled, on automatic because like hell a man from the stone age is going to drive manual, eren puts the beast in reverse, to get out better
and fucking floors it
don’t worry, the heart attack lasts for two seconds!! he heels for breaks and makes them both lurch forward enough to get whiplash. eyes bulging with adrenaline, usurper puts it in drive
[ there are a lot of sharp turns and bumps, sudden stops and speed ups again— maybe he backed up right into a pole?? maybe?? that most certainly is an intersection with stop lights. you poor soul, usurper doesn’t know anything about traffic lights. they’re just colorful lights in the coming distance.
at least they’re lucky enough that it’s a green light. hahaha. oh my god i feel so bad.
look at that, another traffic light! this time green turns to yellow, and he just. floors it more. except the slow down seems much smoother the closer they get to red, only forcing a full and short stop when they’re there. music plays from the radio, he probably almost killed them, but hey. that was the witch’s fault.
even while they’re stopped at the red light, the car lurches forward again, its tires screeching as he plays with break and motor. maybe just to give him an extra spook.
but by the time elliot probably looks up to tell him eREN NO— eren’s smiling right at him, and he could say eren again. he totally did that last bit on purpose. ]
[this is it, this is how he dies. This was a terrible idea. Why did he think this was a good idea?? He has so many regrets, he's going to die so young.
When Eren now tries to run a red light (which elliot had said you STOP at those), he yells-]
Eren no-!
[Except he sees how Eren is smiling at him. And the fact he could say the name. It sinks in. His memory must be back, that wasn't an expression he had before. And the last few moments had been smoother- he knew how to turn the radio on even though Elliot hadn't explained how.
like literally, that is his face right now. as sly as he looks, it’s sweet and glad to see him again with eyes that remember just why he loved him so much and why, he’ll, if you allowed it . . . . ]
I’m pretty sure I fell for you all over again.
[ briefly, one hand from the wheel goes to elliot’s leg, giving it a comforting squeeze. ]
[Wow jeez!! It's so unfair that Eren trolled him and then said something SO GENIUNELY SWEET. Especially when he's feeling a rush of emotions from Eren's memory coming back!! That look and-]
...Pull over please.
[So I don't do something to make us actually crash and die]
[ oh boy they need to pull over, and just in time because that’s what eren was just about to do after this light! for what, you ask— well, maybe they’re both in sync enough to find out once eren stops the car by the sidewalk with blinking lights, getting held back when he wants to lean out of his seat a little too fast with a jerk from his seat belt, only to hastily try and clip it off, ack–!! ]
[Haha seatbelt failure will be your undoing! Elliot meanwhile has no issue with his seatbelt. The moment the car is pulled over, he's unbuckled and he's reaching over to tug Eren into a hug. There's no escape!!!!]
[ no!!! this is blasphemy!! he demands a redo!!! justice!!! justice against his cockblocking seatbelt!! squeezing into a hug they go as he’d unbuckled and free, adding to the embrace a tight lip-to-lip kiss. he never wants to forget you again. ]
[No redos!! No justice!! Just hugs and yes kisses. He'll be returning that kiss very readily. When it's done, he'll pull back a little and smile at Eren- his hand on his cheek]

Haha, yeah. This is it.
