[ eren can feel the heat seeping over his face like a wildfire, and what was worst was that it was untamed. his lips pull down and he faces mikasa with— that look, the infamous frown a tsundere would hold as his heart skipped at that damn cute face looking all surprised and flushed because, yes! she’s beautiful! she’s beautiful right now. ]
You’re still . . . Beautiful.
[ the state is maintained. he means it. and he just frowns deeper as his boner doesn’t fucking let up, but, that’s just how things are. ]
['Cute', was her gormless, blank face that cute though? Because she lept just staring. Shoulders hunching as she started to wilt, hands wringing the front of her skirt. Her face so warm that steam was almost pouring out her ears. Her gaze falling to the ground.]
Oh... [Silence. Was he frowning? Mikasa didn't notice, she didn't register much at all. The brain had turned to mush.] But I'm like this.
[ one may confuse his tone for building anger, because truly, so???? she had horse legs, or maybe furry legs next month, or maybe plant legs to next. it doesn’t remove attraction for him in the slightest. and with a grand huff: ]
[Her ears dip in a small flinch. Her lips pursing. Eren... She wasn't too sure what to make of that. A part of her was glad, she'd have loved Eren no matter what but....
But popping a boner seemed a bit beyond unconditional love.
...Wasn't it? Mikasa wasn't so sure anymore. Slowly, she shuffled. The grass parting to make a soft indent for her to rest on.]
O-Okay... [But this knowledge brought nothing. Because he still had his...issue?] ...Now what? [Did she go back and just leave him here to deal with it or? She didn't like the idea of doing that, but there wasn't much else she could do.]
[ “now what” after “you’re god damn beautiful any way you are”, that is going to echo in his head for a really god damn long time today. there was the obvious route, and they were certainly beyond something unconditional to him, but if she’s clueless on that . . .
he inhales, deeply, and for a second feels a tinge of inefficacy the same way he did when he asked her “what am i to you” and she responded with “family”. ]
Go back. [ he shrugs, but keeps his gaze low, ] I can take care of myself.
[Look, it was a perfectly valid question when there was a boner she didn't know what to do with. It'd have been awkward enough if he was a human. But as a Jinba...she had no idea.
Even as he told her to go, she remained sitting.]
Are you sure? I don't like leaving you... [She dote and worry. Even if he wasn't ill. ]
[ not the dislike of leaving him behind, but actually leaving him. with some attempt at gesture at his concealed (sort of) boner, his shoulders drop with a sigh. ]
This isn’t going away so soon. [ even if he too, disliked the idea and preferred they hang out in the woods, but at least the erection had been shot half dead already. he’ll just need more time. ] If you start ahead, I’ll catch up.
[ it’s the only reassurance that he’ll follow after her soon that he can give. ]
[She still looked uneasy, even as she slowly rose. Glancing at him and looking away the whole time. Once she was up, she backed up, still tentative. Then she turned.
Walking a little bit. Turning back to look... It really did resemble a sad puppy. But she managed to drag her gaze away and make the journey home. Still torn between staying and leaving.]
[ he waited and resisted the urge to look behind him. at least, his ears did some of the sneaky work for him, rotating sideways to listen to the beat of her hooves until all he could feel were distant vibrations in the earth going sound and calm. perhaps it may have been a disappointing (and disappointed) boner, but what could he even argue about semi-public lovemaking with equine bodies?
in a handful of minutes, from twenty to a half hour, eren is one his way to trail behind her and return to the cramped spaces of their apartment. perhaps there, he could make some advancements. she'd feel him close with the return of the presence of his fiery, ruby gem that she knew so intimately. ]
