"Y/n, you can't just openly say that out here."
"What, killing? It's not like you haven't done it before."
"I know that, and so have you."

On the day of Hange's first experiment, you came along as Eren's official "Moral Support."
"Just go down there and transform. It's not that complicated," said Levi as you all neared the well.
"Understood, sir."
"Moral Support, drop the ladder." You sent Levi an offended look. He only raised an eyebrow and nodded his head to the well. You shuffled over, tied the rope ladder to the ground, and threw it down.
"Levi, being the Moral Support is more of an emotional job than an assistant," Hange pointed out.
"Yeah, Levi," you said, mocking his name. "I didn't sign up for this."
"Tch. You think you're staying here for free? Make yourself useful, at least. Eren, get in there."
Eren stepped over the edge of the well. Before he started climbing down, he turned to face you. "Shit. I'm nervous," he whispered, evident nerves written across his face.
"Why? Come on, you're going to be fine. Just don't think that much about it. Let it happen." You patted his cheek and nodded for him to go down, so he did. Then you noticed Levi and Hange's eyes on you, one who looked slightly disturbed and the other curious. "What?"
Hange smiled. "Nothing, darling. You ready down there, dear?" She called down into the well.
"Ready, Commander!"
Once you guys got on your horses, she fired the green smoke signal and you waited. And waited.
"Isn't the lightning supposed to come by now?" you asked.
"Uh, did he miss the signal?" suggested Hange.
"Or perhaps we were naive enough to expect that he can just turn the ability on and off," said Levi, getting off his horse. "Eren, enough! We're done for the day."
"Did something go wrong down there?" asked Hange. She gasped once the three of you peered down the well.
"I'm sorry," he choked out. "I don't think I can do it now." Blood dripped down his lips and his palms were full of deep bite marks.
You squinted your eyes, calling out, "What the hell did you do to yourself down there?"
"Moral Support, help him back up."
You clicked your tongue and released the rope ladder down. Eren climbed up, slower than usual because of his wounds, and once you could reach him, you helped him out. "Oh, damn..." You held his hands in yours, hissing as if the pain were yours to feel. "This looks like it hurts a lot."
"Not as much as the fact that I failed," he muttered, looking deeply discouraged.
