[ he shakes his head. it's not that he doesn't believe it—he knows it's true, because he was there at Erwin's side during his final moments, and even for awhile after. neither of them said it. but being brought here has given them the time and the opportunity to do things differently; to act upon their feelings, and to say what they never got to say.

so he's going to make up for it.

he moves his hands up to cradle Erwin's face, and finally looks him in the eyes. he probably looks like complete shit at this point, but this is important. ]

I love you.

[ it's just a reminder now, but it will always bear repeating. ]

[ it was never the right moment back home. it never would have been. that's why this place feels like a blessing more often than not. he knows most people want to go home, but erwin has nothing left at home and knows that he's never going to get what he has so readily here.

when levi cradles his face he leans into it easily, eyes lidded and gaze almost a little cautious. but when levi speaks next, he smiles and it's like the sun coming out from behind a cloud cover. ]

I love you too.

[dirtdevil]

[ in spite of everything, he smiles back. it's something faint and sad, but it's a smile nonetheless.

his hand drops down to grasp the one Erwin has left. ]

Just stay with me for awhile.

[ it feels almost childish to say, but it's what he needs. ]

[theomachy]

[ a smile is still something, even if it is faint and sad. he'll take it.

his hand turns in levi's, threading their fingers, and he nods. ]

As long as you need.

[ even if it's forever. ]

[dirtdevil]

[ forever, huh? that would be ideal.

he just stands there quietly holding Erwin's hand for a few moments. what the hell is he supposed to do now? eventually he decides that taking advantage of every second they have together is the only way to keep going.

so he leads Erwin over to their couch and motions for him to lie down and just curls up next to him, face buried in his chest. if it's up to him, they're gonna be there for awhile. ]

[ erwin says nothing more; there's nothing more to say so he figures silence is fine.

he's malleable and indulgent as he moves to the couch to lay down, settling in such a way that levi can fit comfortably with him. he's used to using one arm again and curls it around levi's back, hand planting flat at the small of it as he tucks his head in down against levi's where it's buried.

it hurts his neck a little, but he doesn't care.

what matters is the fact that they're here now, together, and that's enough for now. ]
