[Indeed, Eren arguably only sees a friendly, easy-going person where those in the know see an ill-tempered, crude, violent cop, much like Hijikata only sees a traumatised, hard-working young man where those in the know see a messed-up, unapologetic genocider.
When Eren laces their fingers together, Hijikata immediately feels heat rise into his cheeks. This definitely is a romantic gesture, right?! It feels so nice...
When Eren keeps looking at him, he starts stressing out internally. This is where you kiss him!! You're sitting under one of the most beautiful skies this world has to offer, and there's no one else around! Fucking do it, Toshirou! You're older; don't push everything on Eren!
It's goddamn hard to act on feelings that aren't bloodlust and vegeance and the like, without a stomach full of weird potion tea or lungs full of sex pollen or what-have-you, but he can't be a coward all the time, not when Eren is brave enough to at least lace their hands together. So he leans in and gives him a kiss on the lips.]
