cw: suicidal ideation (as ever)

[The Eren that met Maruki in Somnius stopped wanting to be touched once he found himself too sickening, and the Eren that met Maruki in Seven couldn't afford to want to be touched, but the truth is, the real Eren - who is, ever Eren, at his core - finds no more comfort in anything than he does the embrace of someone he loves. After a parting? Fuck. What pride does he have left? Maruki knows all of it. The world has ended again and again and again, and at the end of all of it, he's somewhere else - some new Hell, and always that one, same, familiar face.

[He'd rather be dead right now, but what else is new? He isn't. He's here.

[Maruki's arm slung around his shoulders, he returns the gesture in kind, though reaches with his free hand to grip the nape of his friend's neck, solid and sturdy. He looks him in the eye.]

Inevitable, as always.

[He drops his hand away from Maruki's neck, his arm away from Maruki's shoulders - but, the older man can keep hanging on as long as he'd like, really.]

This time...I remember at least a few others.
