[Before, when Eren entered the Labyrinth, and experienced the end, he came back a shell. That's what he was expecting this time. It's like that, here and there; not enough. He misses the feeling of being empty. All Maruki says is, "You're doing well," and Eren feels his lip tremble, his eyes well up.
[He's not doing well. He's not doing well at all. And everyone can tell.]
Sorry. [He stands up, starts to move toward the kitchen, but lags. His mouth opens and closes, but the shape is tight; he doesn't want to start crying - of course, he already is.] I don't think...I should be here...on your break. I can't...
Stop, so. I'll just. See you later.
[Maruki looks so tired. Eren will make it worse. He can't fucking stop himself.]
