There's nothing wrong with it sometimes. I just don't really want to anymore if we don't have to. I would never use my full strength against you, you're right.
[ This is...mostly true! At least he never plans to here, which is what matters. ]
I guess. I can't separate myself from being a titan, you know. That's who I am too.
But I don't like who I am, so...maybe that's what I'm trying not to be.
[ He almost deletes that but since they're having honesty hour, he hits send before he can change his mind. ]
You're making me look less mature for wanting to occasionally punch you in the face when you're weird.
[Grumpity grump grump.
That confession surprises him though. Not the fact Eren doesn't like himself, somehow Jean had a feeling, but the fact he'd admit it.]
You should try taking acting lessons. That might help you. Both in finding stuff to do and maybe finding a new you.
Though as annoying as you are, I don't mind the Eren Jaeger I know. The Eren I had to share a dorm with for far too long. That guy. Such a pain in the ass.
[ He might be kidding. He might not. Hard to say! ]
Did I? Maybe.
[ Whether he really doesn't remember or this is just patented Eren Jaeger gaslighting is anyone's guess. ]
I don't think acting is what I want to try. I should do something more than just fighting monsters I guess. I've never known what else to do besides fight.
[It's not something he feels like starting an argument over, but he happens to remember that conversation pretty well. Even if he'd rather not.]
Try different things, then. Video games, singing karaoke, painting... there's a lot of stuff to do around here. It might feel stupid to try some of the things, but at least you'd be trying.

Still is. But you're a lot more than that.

I'm not that Eren anymore.
[ This is nonsense. Another day he'll say "I'm the same as I was since I was born," which is a different brand of nonsense. ]
Acting lessons...
I'd be a shitty actor and you know I would.

That's not what you said last time. You said you're still who you've always been.
I know, but you could at least give it a try. You might be surprised.

See? I'm not good at being a person.
