[This event is disturbing on so many levels. Kaneki wouldn't say it's more disturbing for him than for others--after all, this is daily life at home for some of them--but perhaps it's a special kind of disturbing for Kaneki. He's heard of these titans, but seeing them is just--
No, he's still not sure if titans or ghouls are more terrifying. Titans don't know what they're doing and ghouls do, but which of those is scarier is beyond him, even now.
What he does know, and what is becoming increasingly urgent, is that, although he's lost all of his speed and strength and the ability to even use his kagune, he's still hungry. Now is really not the time to go seeking food, with the closets being a bit disagreeable, and the man-eating monsters threatening to break through the walls any time.
For that reason, more than because of his complete inability to do anything helpful, he's spent the event so far keeping out of the way. He's only crept out today because he doesn't know how much longer this will last and he knows that waiting too long to eat is a terrible, terrible idea, even if he's much less likely to manage to kill anyone this time around.
He can be found skulking around the Mansion and the area of the grounds immediately outside. He doesn't want to wander too far outside, though. He'll just get in the way. Everyone seems so busy that he doesn't want to get in the way, and he certainly doesn't want to be eatenbeen there, done that, thanks.
Feel free to run into him.]

I'm not much of a threat right now. [Not any more than any other university literature major, anyway.] I--
[He stops himself, watching Eren, backing up half a step. At least he's more bemused than alarmed.]
...What?
no subject
[Another step closer, this time less warily.]
If you cause trouble, I mean. So let's figure out how to fix this together.
no subject
...I appreciate it.
[Even if it makes him a little anxious.]
I've tried the closets and even the kitchen, and I couldn't get anything that tasted edible.
no subject
[An idea quickly dawns on him -- it's troubling how quickly his thoughts are willing to move in such a perverse direction. He can't help but feel a little disgusted with himself for even considering it.]
There might be a way. I'm still not sure how I feel about it, but it's better than nothing.
no subject
What's that?
no subject
[He uses "spit" because it's a kinder sounding word, but really the proper choice would have been "regurgitate." Mushed up, chewed on, wet with a sticky, thick coating of saliva. Eren has only seen it up close once before, but that one sight had been enough to haunt his dreams ever since.]
no subject
...Are you serious?
[He's sure Eren's telling him the truth--he just can't believe this is a thing he might need to do.]
no subject
[Yeah... it's gross. He wonders what Kaneki will have to say when he sees what it looks like in person. It's worse than words can describe.]
But it's the only option you've got.
no subject
Eugh.
[That's really all he can say about it right now. Just that disgusted, resigned noise.]
Where should I be looking?
no subject
[Eren turns on his heels, heading for the doors. He plans on starting the search now.]
no subject
His relief isn't enough to keep him from protesting, though.]
Isn't that dangerous? I mean, more than this whole thing already is.
no subject
His friend's current situation a good part of the reason he's so on edge. Helping Kaneki seems like a nice way to let off steam, and maybe even a way to feel useful during an event that has thus far caused him to feel completely useless.
So. What would Armin do?]
Do you think you can hold yourself off until nightfall? That's when they're the least active.

[Eren slows his pace, but doesn't stop walking entirely.]
What are you going to do until then?
no subject
Stay out of everyone's way. It's the best thing I can do now.
