[He'll smile back at him, holding on that hand]

Hi.

[And hope you got a good look, because Elliot is stepping in close to hug him. Arms wrap around and he rubs his back]

Hehe, it's must've been cold flying here.

[ ah, yes, the way you have to get even more fuzzy and warm, it’s a hug. eren got a great look and his embrace is tight, under elliot’s arms and around his waist. eren’s face slips into the crook of his neck and he breathes in. mmm.

fruity, as always. ]

It was refreshing. [ eren replies, a little muffled as he speaks into elliot’s skin and gives it a lingering kiss, and smiling. he doesn’t want him to ever go away, and it wasn’t a lie that eren missed him. hell, it doesn’t look like he’s going to pull away as soon as possibly expected.

he just left home with a sinking, ugly sensation that love was taken, gone and dead, of course he wouldn’t let go so soon. he lifts elliot, because it’s easy to haul him over to sit somewhere, and to his composition work eren waddles, his fiancé presses into his chest and getting lifted off his feet. ] But not like you.

[He feels himself getting lifted up as he gets carried somewhere to sit. The bed is probably the best option, unless Eren wanted to sit up in his desk chair. It's easy to pick up on how much Eren doesn't want to let go, so he'll keep holding on.

Something must've shaken him up, be it a bad memory or a bad dream. So he'll do what he can to comfort him]

Awww. [He sweets him a little, resting his head against Eren's.] Well lucky for you, I'm free all night. Just for you.

[ eren is going to sit wherever he has to to see elliot compose and stay close by him. even if it meant sitting on the floor near the work desk. after clicking off the blades at his waist (clattering to the floor, whoops), the bed wins out, and eren does the honors to timber when he tilts forward and makes them both fall— elliot, back first, and eren on top of him.

after lifting his head and admiring him some (his eyes are red, goddamn), eren smiles even further and presses a kiss to elliot’s lips as he slips sideways. he speaks quietly, almost a hush between them. ]

—I can’t wait to wake up with you like this. [ then he won’t have to worry about coming over so late!! playing around with his hair, though, eren sighs. ] Show me what you’ve got.

[ he has all night. ]

[Elliot will give a happy little laugh as they both fall onto the bed, holding onto Eren and not at all afraid that it'll hurt. It's Eren after all, he treats him with the utmost care always. And as expected, he lands gently on the blankets with Eren on top of him- but not crushing him.

He looks up at the others eyes, giving him a smile. He notices the redness in Eren's eyes...it must be from lack of sleep, the poor thing. His hand reaches up to push some locks of hair out of his face as they kiss, slowly slipping sideways with him]

Me neither. [There's such a look of fondness in his eyes. He loves this man so.] Haha, I wasn't kidding that it just started, you know. It's not much of anything.

You only say that because you’re a composer.

[ and a perfectionist all the same, but eren can’t argue on that front either. he’d say his grades were mediocre if they weren’t 100. ] What’re you going for, at least? Happy, dramatic?

And you say that because you love everything I do.

[He knows he is the apple of your eye Eren!!] ...Hmm, I think it depends on your perception.

[ lies!!! it’s because you are truly amazing at everything you do??? eren is offended, and makes a face that objects but can’t hold back that he doesn’t deny . . .

oh, he almost forgot the ice cream. sitting up to hoist his little bag off his shoulders, eren pulls the strings open to pull out— three perfectly sealed buckets of store brought ice cream. he ate all yours. these are the ones left. plus, he then holds up: two spoons. he planned everything. ]

Try me.

[He'll sit up as Eren does, remaining close as he does so. His eyes widen when he sees how much ice cream there is. Enough that it distracts him from talking about his unfinished song]

-- You brought over that much??

It’s . . . Not a lot.

[ eren that’s three buckets of ice cream ]

Eren it's three buckets. Even one is a lot for a couple people.

[ “quick!” says eren’s subconscious, “act natural!” as he pops one open and digs his spoon in. mind you, he has not received warhammer at this time. ]

I’m hungry.

[ not that natural!!! ]

[Eren you are not good at this. Bless your heart]

Three buckets worth hungry?

[it sounds like he doesn't believe you. Maybe you need to act more natural]

Edited 2019-01-09 01:44 (UTC)

[ . . . ]

Three buckets worth anxiety.

[ he gives. sort of a sheepish half-smile here. he’s being honest! stress eating is a blessing when he needed it plus he’d just work extra hard to burn it all off the next day. ]

Sorry.

[oh Eren...Elliot will give him a soft smile]

Hey, you don't have to be sorry. You deal with my anxiety a lot.

[He'll reach over and run that hand through his hair.]

But I don't want either of us to get sick, so how about we put two of those buckets in the freezer and just eat from one?

[ elliot has a way with words!! and if you check the freezer it’s all full of the same ice cream hHMMMM I WONDER WHO PUT THAT THERE, but, maybe he probably already knows (or not and eren is just eluding himself): ]

There’s still room?

[ innocence, thy name is “eren why”. ]

Er, good question. I know there was some ice cream in there--

[Ice cream that looks...exactly like this one

. . . ]

Eren why are you buying so much ice cream for us?

[

s hit ]

I promised Akira I’d buy ice cream.

[ but it has nothing to do with anxiety!! he takes another spoonful, and halfway through eating he comments with wide eyes. ]

The rest didn’t fit so I took it home until the new fridge comes.

[ . . . ]

What new fridge?

[ one fear

in which akira didn’t say jack shit ]

It was on sale at the Costco we went.

[ the costco!!!!! ]

[????]

The Costco?

[Your one fear has been realized]

[ yeah eat ice cream with him and pretend he didn’t buy a new fridge for mochi ]

I almost got lost in there. You ever been to one?

Um...yeah? That's where I buy ingredients for the food I sell.

-- Are you saying you haven't?

[ he ]

. . . I’ve always gone to Whole Foods.

Wow, really? But they're so overpriced...

[Anyway]

So..you went to costco with Akira, got lost, and somehow bought us a fridge?
