[ “precious” . . . it’s something he can surely relate to, in both feeling and feeling it for her. eren has had a group of precious friends that he wouldn’t say he didn’t love. he never used the word, and plenty could argue (even himself) that he was less than worthy to say it again when the despair he brought and the reasons he used . . . weren’t only for them. there are certain things love doesn’t allow, and it doesn’t erase that he hurt them plenty to protect them.
he doesn’t have to, here. he knows it’s only a matter of time before the lights dim in his home without a proper, hm, body to return to and only a temporary vessel to finish what he started. kaede is next to him here, telling him what she could— perhaps any further romantic agenda flies right over his horns. friends who’re precious for each other can have intimacy, no problems. right? after all— ]
I feel the same way.
[ he comprehends. perhaps not fully, but in his own way, he shares it. he shares the sentiment and looks upon her. ]
I’ll be happy for you, if you could live that here for a really long time.
[ as far as he knew? chimeras were second best when it came to their lifespans, only losing to dragons and fae. knowing her circumstance— he means what he says. ]
