Levi was rather stunned where he was seated on the ground. Elliot was giving the exact same reaction as when Eren would approach. But Eren wasn't... Eren right now, but in his titan form. He was sure Elliot had never once seen his father's alternate form, so how exactly...?

"Da! Da!" Elliot's small hands flailed in the direction of the large figure that stood several yards away from where his mother and he were.

The emerald eyes never once left the two human beings, and it seemed to observe them closely. Eventually, the large form discarded its attention from the disintegrating one, and lumbered over with careful steps.

Eren knelt before the rest of his family and reached a large hand out. It stopped short of the two, but close enough that Elliot could latch his small, tiny hands onto it. The curious baby settled his laughter and started to fiddle with the finger that had a nail twice his size, oblivious to his surrounding now that he had something of interest to play with.

Eren and Levi's eyes met, and the latter let out a contented, relieved sigh. He flopped back a little, thankful that his husband had just saved them both. He let a small smile grace his lips as he watched Elliot gleefully play with Eren's finger, not the least bit fearful of the humongous figure before him.

Eren's titan form pulled back after a good minute or so, chin dropping the the chest when steam erupted from the double-jaw mouth. As the titan took several steps back, the brunette emerged from the nape of his inhuman shell, throwing his head back as he took a deep gasp of much needed air. He freed himself from the muscle and ligaments that binded him to his other form, stripping the connections and severing all control he had of the shell.

Elliot was staring as if in awe, and it was nothing new to Levi, who had merely picked the baby up and settle him in his lap. Levi watched on as Eren leapt from the body, landing with less grace on his feet and knees from the high drop.

"Levi, are you alright?" Eren asked with genuine concern as he approached his family. Elliot started making the similar cooing noises when he was bored.

Levi merely nodded, glancing down at the baby who was trying to grasp leaves from the ground.

"Levi."

"Wha-" Said person was startled when two hands landed on either sides of his face. It was in no way painful - no more aggressive than a gentle pat, but Levi was truly stunned by the move he had never received in his life. But what had shocked him a lot more was an expression on Eren's face that was caught between complete anger and worry.

"Why didn't you tell me?"

With Eren's hands keeping a firm grip on his face, Levi couldn't turn away. In the darkness, Eren's emerald eyes were also mesmerizing, drawing him in like a moth to a flame.

"I didn't want you to worry."

If he could, Eren would be pulling his own hair out by now. "And not telling me wouldn't?"
