3rd Titan Down | Video (trigger warnings for: death, gore, and emotional trauma in the comments)

[Those who know Jean might notice the shadows under his eyes and the fact that he doesn't look...particularly emotive about anything right now. Those who don't know Jean, hi.]

When I decided to use the Dream Docks, I thought I was only going to be there for a week. I didn't expect it to last over a month. But the city's still standing, so I guess I didn't miss much.

Still fucking weird as ever, though.

Uhm, Mikasa... [And any confidence he had is gone. He's nervous and regretful, and he has no idea how to make it up.] Sorry. I just wanted to see what was happening on our world.

Are you--

Can we--

Can I come over? I get it if you don't want me to.

[Because it feels weird not asking after just disappearing like that.]

[Filtered to Marco]

I know I didn't talk to you that much for a while. How've you been? Just going to say this once and then move on. Sorry for the way I've acted...and everything. I'm surprised you haven't punched me in the face.

[Filtered to Weiss]

My absence was irresponsible, and seeing as you're running for Guardian, this might be a shit time to ask. But I want to know whether or not it's possible to have my job back.

Somewhere that isn't the wall.

[ex_halfofme928]

Oh.

I was going to go make some tea earlier... Do you want some? [ small talk is not their forte omg ]

[ action ]

[neighvarily]

Sure...tea's always good. [shrug. no it's not.]

[ action ]

[ex_halfofme928]

If you're sure... I'm glad you're back though. We all missed you.

[ action ]

[neighvarily]

...Yeah, no need to make it corny.

[He scoffs, but there's a flicker of pain.]

[ex_halfofme928]

...Sorry. [ he's just as bad off as he is. but he does turn, deciding to leave before him ]

[ action ]

[neighvarily]

I'm just saying. [He doesn't have to speak what goes unspoken. That and Jean's an awkward asshole. He shoves his hands in his pockets and walks after him.]

[ action ]

[ex_halfofme928]

[ he feels awkward and has to finally say something ] Are you sure you're okay? I can leave, if you want me to.

[ action ]

[neighvarily]

...I don't want you to leave. [Which is the truth.]

I don't consider myself special or any of that bullshit. But it's hell without you. It's hell with you, but you know, it's more...tolerable or whatever.

[ action ]

[ex_halfofme928]

More tolerable with me than without me? [ he can't help but smile a little ] I'm glad we feel the same way.

[ action ]

[neighvarily]

...You just wanted to hear me say it, didn't you?

[He makes a show of frowning and rolling his eyes, then smirking because that's more comfortable than smiling.]

[ action ]

[ex_halfofme928]

Possibly. What of it?
