The Ereri Project (#2)

Unicorn (Werewolf)

"Hey Master?"

Levi glances over at Eren from his place at the sink, washing the dishes. "Yeah?"

"What's this?" Eren walks over and holds up a movie for Levi to see.

Levi smiles. "That was my all-time favorite movie as a kid."

Eren makes a face. "The Last Unicorn," he reads to himself from the cover. "Aren't unicorns for girls?"

Levi makes a face. "What did I tell you about saying things like that?"

Eren tucks his hands together behind his back, rocking on his heels. "That everything is for everyone so there's nothing that's just for boys or girls."

"Very good," Levi says, setting the last dish on the drying rack. "You wanna watch it with me?"

Eren shrugs. "I guess."

Eren hands the movie to Levi before running over to the couch and unfolding the blankets so they can sit under them. Levi puts the DVD in and picks up the remote before laying on the couch. Eren lays a blanket over Levi before pulling himself up to sit on Levi's belly.

He's situating a blanket on his own lap while Levi presses play.

Eren giggles when Levi sings along with the music at the beginning. "Quiet kid," Levi mutters. "I love this song."

About fifteen minutes in, Eren glances over at Levi. "This is more serious than I thought."

"Were you expecting something like My Little Pony?" Levi asks.

Eren nods. "I was expecting it to be happy but this is kind of sad."

They watch on and Eren gets more and more absorbed by the story the longer it goes on. "Ew! That lady is creepy!" he says,

Levi smiles. "She's a witch, you know, they are traditionally creepy."

"Is that guy in the blue gonna make friends with the unicorn?"

Levi rolls his eyes. "His name is Schmendrick, and I'm not telling you, just watch."

Eren is silent until the scene with the Red Bull, where his mouth falls open and he stares. "Oh no!" he exclaims.

"Shh," Levi says, hugging the child.

He's quiet again until the scene when they meet King Haggard, during which Eren says, "Ew, he's creepy looking too."

Levi laughs.

"This movie didn't need a yucky love song," Eren says a while later.

But then, after that, he doesn't say anything until the movie is completely over.

"What happens next?" Eren asks.

Levi cocks an eyebrow as he gets up to take the movie out. "What do you mean?"

"She said she remembers him but then she left. Does she ever come back to see him again?"

Levi puts the movie back in the case, thinking. "Well," he says. "I don't know. I can buy the books if you want and we can read them together to see if they have any more answers."

Eren perks up. "Really? Will you read them to me?"

Levi smiles. "Sure."
