#17 Headcanon: Their Reaction To You Self Harming

Requested by FloraPxtalz

TRIGGER WARNING FOR
SELF HARM

Also, please remember that self harming isn't cute and it's not quirky. Its a serious issue that should be taken seriously. Do not romanticize self harm. If you struggle with self harm, please talk to someone, or get help. please don't trauma dump in the comments. I do try to make these headcanons as accurate as possible so not all of these characters will comfort you or help you

Eren Jaeger

° He would blow up in your face and start yelling at you probably asking "why are you doing this?" Etc. Which would escalate the situation. He'd be pretty angry and shocked and would be so blinded by rage he wouldn't understand that he was hurting you even worse. After the incident he'd apologize for the things he said

Mikasa Ackerman

• She would take the object away while tears streamed down her face. She's horrified and scared for you. She's disappointed in herself because she feels that she could've done something to avoid this. She makes sure you're okay, and tries her best to make you feel better and when you're calm, she'll probably want to talk about what caused you to do it in the first place

Jean Kirschtein

○ Like Mikasa, he would take the object away from you while feeling guilty because this had happened. He believes he wasn't paying enough attention or he wasn't doing enough for you. He'll comfort you while tears stream down his face. He understands that you may not want to talk about what caused that and he's fine with that. He'll wait till you're ready

Armin Arlert

● He'd be shocked as he stared at you. His main goal is to make sure you're okay in this moment. He'll take away the object from you and then try and figure how this happened. Asking himself "What made them do this?" He'd comfort you and try to calm you down. In the back of his mind he wonders if he could've done something to prevent this

Marco Bodt

□ He would be shocked, his first reaction is just staring at you as he tries to process what's happening. Once he does that, he goes into comfort you and make sure you are okay. He'll take the object away from you while saying things like "I'm here now" "Let it all out" "I'm not mad at you" he makes it very clear that he is not upset at you. He feels guilty, asking himself questions like "Did I not do enough?" "Did I cause this?" Of course he won't ask you those questions because to him, your well being is more important than the guilt he is feeling

Reiner Braun

■ He would stand there and stare at you as he processed the situation. Once he did, he would start crying. He would do his best to comfort you. Making sure the object is out of reach. He is broken by the sight of you doing that. He's already in a bad place and the image of you doing that has made it 10x worse but he won't tell you that. He wants you to be okay, but he also feels like this is punishment for his past actions. He feels really guilty about the whole thing. He doesn't blame you at all, rather he completely blames himself

Annie Leonhart

♤ She would stare at you. Heartbroken at the sight. She'd take the object away while just staring at you. She doesn't know what to do or how to react. Worry and fear are present in her eyes but she can't voice that because she's so shocked by the whole thing. She'd try to comfort you with her actions but she'd be dead silent as she tries to understand why this happened. She'd probably silently cry as well.
