[See now THAT'S the actual surprise.

Crow blinks owlishly, as if letting it sink in what Eren was implying.]

You're on.

SNES is in the living area.

[Crow's apartment wasn't small, per say, but more cozy, with two couches surrounding a coffee table (With better window lighting) with a bunch of little decorations ranging from lighthouses to motorcycles.]

Make yourself at home. I can make you something to eat too, if you want.

[usurpers]

[ it’s a cute place, crow. ]

Just ate. [ but you know what he bought for you in his backpack? eren pulls it out and sets it on the table: a box of craisins. take care of yourself. ]

You cook? [ ah, there it is. mech warriors. eren

has never been so in front of crow, has he!! ]

[jurai]

[Crow watches Eren place the Craisins on the table, hints of a smile forming as he goes to clear off that coffee table. Eight minutes was indeed, not enough time to FULLY clean.

He knows that Eren's doing that out of care (now), so he'll just quietly thank him.]

'Course I cook. The fish market I routinely work at gives me fish to come home and experiment with. Don't even have Hot Pockets in the freezer.

[See, Eren? He's not as much of a disaster as he acts!

...But then he sees those eyes dance at Mech Warriors all set up, and he laughs.] Don't let me hold you back. That thing's old, but she's still kickin' pretty well. Boot it up.

[usurpers]

I thought you’d have things like, [ gestures ] Gushers and Bagel Bites.

[ which is also a joke, but eren’s— too busy not to smile while he’s going over to Super Nintendo. he’s finally acting like a kouhai, crow, finally . . . one giant zoom for the tv and it’s system, and eren’s finger is already pressing down on the power button. my god, it’s real. the scream lights up with the very retro mech warriors and eren’s already smashing a to get to the menu. ]

There’s even co-op!

[ lIKE JAEGERS ]

[jurai]

[The comment makes him laugh a little.] Well I won't deny the box of Bagel Bites I've got in the freezer, but I usually try and be a little more self sufficient--Gramps was pretty adamant on me learning in high school.

[His conversation probably falls on deaf ears, however, because Eren's now fiddling with that SNES. Not that Crow really minds, it's a different side of Eren he doesn't usually get to see, eyes sparkling and twitchy excitement as he presses the power button.

Crow'll just flop on the floor next to him, smirking as he lets Eren take the controls while he picks up player 2.]

Heh, I've honestly never really tried that option--I usually only played this by myself.

Wanna give it a go?

[usurpers]

[ this is where a blossoming friendship goes to hell. ]

Remember the deal.

[ and since it’s co-op— if they both get this teamwork thing under control, consider it crow’s win. eren’s ready to start, and when the screen lights up to begin, he’s got the lower half of the robot, responsible for navigation. crow’s got the upper half, responsible for attacking the enemies.

dang, eren’s likes top more but HIS ROLL IS IMPORTANT!! ]

[jurai]

[Friendship through adversity is the most rare and beautiful of all]

Right, right, my chance to get behind the wheel depends on this!

[But with their co-op, Crow's got the top, ready to hit anything that's approaching them. Thankfully, he's good at shooter games in the arcade, so he's going to nail pretty much every one.

So long as Eren's able to hold up his end of the operation.



P.S. Yeah I bet you like top more Eren Jaeger]

[usurpers]

[

eren’s pretty good, too. insanely good. they are neck to neck in keeping their mech afloat and leading it around the map. but fuck he was looking at the mech’s digital contortion for like five seconds more than he should be leading and he fucking

leads them into a wall

the second the sound of the mech taking damage rings into a downwards spiraling tune, eren

literally

screams ]
