[ Oh good, back onto topics he can comfortably be entirely, sincerely truthful about. ]
Why shouldn't you matter to me? Everyone does.
I don't know how to explain it simpler to that. My own reality or this strange one... everyone in it matters deeply to me. That's not conditional of anything.
But as for you specifically: I don't only care about you because it's my job. I could tell right away that you have a huge heart that's been hardened by an unjust world. I can empathize with that. You're perseverant, and honest, and you care more than you think you let on. All qualities I admire.
It's fine if you don't believe me just yet, but if you can try to take what I'm saying at face value, that would be a start.

You didn't know me. You wanted to help for no reason, and you accept me no matter what I've done, even though I shouldn't matter to you.
I don't get it.

It's not that I think you're lying.
[He doesn't, really.
[He wishes he were special.
[He's not.
[Maruki did have reasons, though.
[Eren doesn't know what to believe.]
I'll try, I guess.

Thank you for hearing me out.
Do you drink coffee?
no subject
Sometimes. I didn't try it until I came here. We only had tea for hot drinks where I grew up.

Oh, and Eren-kun?
You were a shrimpy little kid!

Everyone's shrimpy when they're a kid, you asshole.

Some people have growth spurts earlier than you apparently did...

Anyway, I get up to six feet in a couple years, so just keep it to yourself, grandpa.

Guess we'll find out when I drop by to give you a coffee and use your head as an arm rest because I'll be so worn out from carrying it.
See you!
