[ this was all small talk to stuff a barren elephant in the room (if they were in a room). eren’s tongue tips out, and for a moment he stares hard, squints at the puca as he spoke without actually listening to a single word he said— before unfocused rounded pupils thin back to honed shards. he has been quiet, hasn’t he? he should fix that: ]

dramatic at best, which is why he says and expresses little of it, for now. now, it was better that they walked back home. slowly. eren's steps were consistent but sluggish, the emergency first aid he'd received only enough to cap the gaping patch from getting out of control and get him prepared for either more, medicine and rest. to be fair, he should be in the hospital for a few days. eren declines.

[ things eren has learned today: neither mikasa or her dog knew how to play (his way). the boot warns his talons even though it doesn’t make him budge. for a moment his hand just hangs there— he leans back in his chair afterward, and tips it to balance on the back legs with a flattened expression looking upward. elsewhere. not even the conversation was flowing and brought more bitterness than something good to talk about— but he’d started that in the first place, hadn’t he? ]
Right.
[ with an acknowledging grunt, the wyvern leaves mikasa in her quiet, in peace. tater, too. maybe some other time, he’ll be better at conversation, and conversation with mikasa no less. he’s looking for some money in his pocket wallet (it’s just a sack) to keep the money for his share ready to pay. fertilizer waits. otherwise, he keeps balancing on his chair. ]
