[Subaru really must hate himself. Their sins aren’t comparable, but Eren knows he and Subaru are just the same in ways; many ways…
[Eren can’t keep someone from hating themself. He feels no real need to try. It’s something he and Subaru can share. But Subaru doesn’t hate Eren, and Eren doesn’t hate Subaru. It works.
[Aside from all that, Eren in his loneliness, in his hatred, has always been surrounded by unconditional love - so much so that it makes him feel sick at times. Subaru doesn’t seem to have anyone. Eren could love him enough…]
You’re special to me…[He repeats it, lip brushing lip as he speaks. Scabbed over knuckles skate gently over Subaru’s warm cheek. Eren’s hand uncurls, palm cupping the side of Subaru’s face.
[Has Subaru ever had a kiss before? Eren’s gotten good at them. He connects their lips, moving warm and slow; a first kiss should leave an impression. Eren wants Subaru’s doubts to shrivel up and disappear, be washed away by a wave. Know me. He’ll tell him everything he needs to hear with a kiss like this.]
