“you’re nothing to me. you mean nothing to me. i’m going through with this plan no matter what. all you’ve ever done is get in my way. you’re nothing but a useless nuisance.” eren’s words bite into you, his expression blank and emotionless. you stare up at him, words catching in your throat. the silence is thick and heavy, settling over the two of you as tears swell up in your eyes—

“cut!” the director shouts, the tense atmosphere on set lightening immediately. eren turns to you, placing his hand on your shoulder to rub your back.

“you okay?” he asks in a gentle voice. “that was intense. need a hug?”

it would be a strange sight to anyone else. for someone who plays such a scary, intense character, eren is incredibly caring and always makes sure you’re doing well on set.
