[Elliot doesn't intend to bleed him dry, he doesn't need that much. But he was caught off guard by how good it tasted, how potent to his vampire tastebuds. Instead of just drinking to feed, he found himself letting out pleased little sounds as he drinks. He even drinks a little longer than intended, only stopping when Eren speaks to him.]

Delicious....

[The words come out as a near purr as he licks off any remaining blood off his teeth. It's then he notices how much further the changes have gotten on Eren's body. He runs his fingers over some of those extra scales, and his tail wraps around Eren in delight. ]

Mm...you're coming along so nicely, Eren.

[ his neck is bleeding and he might have been on the verge of feeling lightheaded, but they’re working with the limit here. as small as the punctures are, they still run deep enough to suck and the leftovers stream down his jugular in an expected trickle. it was— oddly. satisfying to hear elliot’s hum vibrate into his core.

his nose stays close to elliot’s nape, caressing him with his lips the way he’d usually do even though right now it’s just slimey, but the water helps dilute any thickness and makes it even seem normal. it’s as if they weren’t monsters at all— just two lovestruck young men that have fallen even deeper into each other. he can’t help nestling elliot, admiring him with his hands in every touch and every growing urge to just . . .

treat him like the treasure he was, he supposed. even if he does that already, he could always do so much more. ]

Take me under?

[ he feels like that’s the last thing he really needs. ]

[Love finds a way, even when it's between two monsters. Elliot certainly is overjoyed to have Eren here with him. He doesn't move to heal the punctures just yet. Eren's regeneration will kick in eventually, and for now there was something pleasing to see the bite mark there. It was like a hickey for monsters.

Elliot holds onto him as Eren nestles close to him, ready to ignore the rest of the world for the while to just be with the man he loves so much. At Eren's request, he's more than happy to oblige.]

Okay.

[He reaches over to lift Eren's chin, leaning over to give him another kiss, a long lasting one. As he does so, he'll gently tug Eren deeper into the water, until they're both completely submerged. The mermaid kiss should keep him from drowning for a little bit, hopefully long enough for Eren's own gills to come in.]

[ they need to enjoy that while it lasts. they can never get actual hickeys and this is a sad world of regen they live in (or a really good one when they could love bite all night and not have to worry about the next day at work or school 👀).

it’s really, really hot to say the least; elliot has a seducing charm while he does this, drawing eren into a kiss that could drag on for a lifetime if he could breathe a different way. down they go, where the sound of the crickets and frogs are muffled by silence, the occasional glob of air bubbling up, the swish of water— eren stays under and follows as easily as a tide, maintaining his lips over elliot’s while raising his hands to hold him, one on his head and the other at the back of his neck.

while he coaxes wider, it’s clear that he doesn’t need to gasp for air; there are slits opening by the sides of his neck, easily felt by a touch. elliot’s fish tail no longer needs to wrap and guide legs when it’s tangled in another tail.

he doesn’t want to fight the changes at all. ]

[You know when you put it that way, it's a good thing. A definite good thing.

There's a peace underneath the water that the surface doesn't know. Sounds are muffled, and everything seems much more isolated. With how Elliot was now, he found it comforting. Not even the cold water temperatures bother him anymore. He was at home here.

He's happy to keep the kiss going as long as possible, both to make sure Eren has enough time to change and to simply enjoy the moment. It's only when it's been awhile and Eren is widening the kiss instead of trying hard to conserve air, does it become clear. He lifts his hand to check the sides of Eren's neck, and sure enough, there was a healthy set of gills there.

Finally he pulls away from the kiss, unwrapping his tail from Eren's so he can pull back and get a good look at him. The changes were well underway, and Eren looked incredible. It was better than Elliot had hoped for.

He reaches for Eren's hand once more, intent on leading him deeper into the ocean. If Eren could breathe underwater now, there was no point in sticking to the shallows. Better to swim out, and experience the feeling of freedom that comes with the open ocean. Together.]

[ eren shouldn’t be doing this.

eren shouldn’t feel the liberty he does when he finally opens his eyes to see elliot, and behind him, an endless stretch of ocean. the ocean ends eventually, no matter to which corner you swim to. eren knows full well that on the other side of the ocean, there was no freedom. on the other side of the ocean was the same, troubled world you still lived in. the world above was the same everywhere you went, because humanity was the same.

but what about under it all? where it was quiet, where it went untouched and unconfined.

it wasn’t true, but infection aids eren to feed the lie: down here, there was far less responsibility. down here was easier. down here was where he could truly be free.

he takes elliot’s hand easily, and as quick as second nature, his new tail flicks to begin launching him forward. he accepts. he desires. he goes with him, and there is where they probably explore all night. ]
