[ when things start out as a dream, eren doesn't necessarily start it aware that it's a dream he walks in. his dragon form, a little smaller than an adult stag, doesn't question why or how he's ventured into the looking glass house— only that it called and compelled him with whispers he couldn't actually hear, hums and the ethereal glows beyond what the eyes could see, the same way it would when it was time for him to return to what was beyond that.
it doesn't take long to find his mirror; a plain one that stretches tall with a simple wooden frame to those who know little to nothing of eren jaeger. for those who know more, or even more will see the bone-shapes carved into the wood to resemble a spine. ribs seem to span into wings and copper chains hang from one of the corners, broken and snapped. the dragon, once staring at the reflective shine his eyes give into the mirror for long enough and catching his breath, dives into the ripple of this mirror's fake surface in hopes that it will return him to where he belongs, to where he needs to be. you too, may go after him, or perhaps the mirror, for one reason or another, calls you to venture and enter. or maybe you fall in? anything can happen in a dream. there's no one truly stopping you, and when you do, you fall into a vast pool of fractured events and voices.

you fall into a pool, and into one of many memories. ]

no subject
eren didn't smile that much these days, but when he did, it was meaningful. a huff, and an adjustment of his talons to cling to clothes: ]
It's tempting.
[ eren realizes it's the first time he's actually said that out loud, or even allowed himself to think it. the elder monsters have grown to love him like a grandchild, something he's— never had the opportunity to even taste. he's helped watch kids and move furniture. he's made soup and eaten hot cheese crepes. ]
Aefenglom has its problems— but the majority coexist instead of the opposite. I'm part of that majority, now.
[ instead of how his home was, where eldians were the slim minority, feared and hated by the larger masses. even with a wall around them, the meaning for the fortress was a different one. you could still go out. you could still explore, see the world, neighboring cities keep in touch and evolve.
next to them, "kruger" asks falco for a favor: deliver a letter to the post box in the city, since doing it himself, from the hospice, would get him tracked and found out. "it's to tell my family that i'm here . . . and that i'm alright." the boy, in an instant, beams at the possibility to help the man and jumps to his feet with a bright smile. "of course!"
kruger's eyes are grim, and eren's own evade. ]
. . . It wouldn't be fair to everyone who's died because of, [ gesture, with his unoccupied hand, ] this. [ firmly, but with some hanging yearn: ] It would've been all for nothing.
