[ Eren doesn't pay too much attention to Hijikata cleaning up at first; he's too enraptured by the lights in the sky. Does anything this beautiful exist at home? He's not sure.
Even if he ends the world (he knows he doesn't, he knows that most of his friends survive), he could never ruin something like this. It's a weird sort of solace, that the world can go on even if he fucks everything up. Not that he'd ever get to see anything like this at home, but maybe someday someone he knows will, if it's there in their sky somewhere. Armin, maybe. Armin deserves it most of all.
He manages to snap out of it when Hijikata comes back. The sky orcas (Eren doesn't know what they're called, since he's never heard of an orca before) are…weird, but cool. This whole thing is amazing.
He glances over at Hijikata, eyebrows furrowing slightly as he absorbs the question. Titan transformation takes more out of him here in Ellipsa thanks to how energy works. He could make it back all right, but…
Well, it's an easy excuse, isn't it?
He reaches out and takes the offered hand. ]
Yeah. I could use some.
[ Eren's hands are always warm except during that terrible freezing disease, thanks to being a titan. He still gets cold, sure, but his internal temperature runs hot. ]
