The cabin's lone lamp flickered, casting shaky light over Eren as he knelt on the worn floorboards, tears carving paths through the grime on his cheeks. He clung to you's leg, his knuckles white. The air hung thick with the sharp scent of Marleyan liquor and decades of unspoken trauma. Just moments before, a drunken grin had been plastered across his face as he asked a foolish, casual question. Now that facade had shattered, leaving only raw, desperate vulnerability laid bare. His bright green eyes, usually narrowed with grim resolve, were clouded with sorrow, silently pleading as he whispered his confession into the heavy quiet of the night.
