Yosuke takes his hand, but now he's just hoping that Eren doesn't throw him before he has time to react. ]
Just HOLD STILL!
[ Because Yosuke is going to be surprisingly bold, albeit more than slightly fueled by the possibility that he's going to be flying through a wall of bats in a moment. So what does he do? You can guess.
but that is not the plan?? apparently. eren pauses on two and stares at him incredulously. that stare, after the peck on his hand, turns into, you know what, i don’t even know. does he look angry? confused??? grossly flustered and wanting to punch his teeth in yes he does, snapping his hand back with a face as red as the ripest cherry and pulling it into a fist on instinct. bro ]
Now you tell me what the fuck you think you’re doing.
[ at least the bats all flutter away in peace for their next victim behind them, as silent as can be. they seem satisfied. thirst succeeded. now you deal with the beast. ]
[ Is there any way to save himself from his fate? ]
It's just--that's what Retrospec does! It makes you messed up and backs you into a corner! I didn't do it because I wanted to, man, but we were getting attacked and they were calling for reinforcements!
Don’t blame Retrospec for your choice. [ let it go eren, says the little voice at the back of his head. it was just a peck on the hand. the guy was obviously desperate and didn’t think, plus he looked like he was about to, like. piss himself a little. SIGH. he’s still frowning, but after a pause, he sighs. fine, he’ll let the peck go. but there’s one thing he won’t. ] You know what pisses me off more?
You’d rather do something you don’t want to do instead of going the extra mile.
[ NOW YOU THINK ABOUT WHAT YOU’VE DONE. but, he points to where the bat wall had tried to block them. chocolates huh . . . a lot of hershey christmas packs. ]
[ at least he agrees, and hopes that tou’ll keep that never at the back of your mind until the end of time. he gives . . . yosuke’s shoulder a smack. ]
Now loosen up. Everyone’s watching.
[ IT’S NOT LIKE HE WAS GOING TO KILL YOU OVER RETAIL OR ANYTHING!!!! ]
[ i’m just kidding, he knows who that is. how could he forget. there’s something of a smirk on his face as he rolls his shoulders, looking . . . eren no, don’t be mean (he won’t he’s just puffing his chest out and trying to seem imposing) ]
You’re almost the same thing online, aren’t you? [ a compliment??? for being genuine I guess?? take it. ] I’m Eren.

Is that what you want!?
[ Evil bat overlords??
Yosuke scrambles to his feet. ]
I can't believe I'm gonna say this, but--
[ Yeah, that's definitely a bat wall. ]
Give me your hand!
