They're going to take our power, one by one, and the lives of everyone here. I don't consent to live like this. I don't know about worlds being eaten in our homes or being born again later, and I don't care. Our lives are being ended as they are now.

I don't like to kill needlessly, but it will keep happening—if you meet someone who wants to let that thing destroy everything, including you, then you should find your chance and stick a blade into their heart.

That's what's so infuriating.

Well. One of the many things, anyway.

[ ... He pauses, briefly. Eventually ends up shaking his head. ]

People are always fighting for their sake no matter where you go. [ Or so he's gathered, between the dire state of his own homeworld, this one, and what he's heard of others. ] You can't get mad at something like that.

I mean that they don't have a choice of it. That all of this is necessary. Of course I'm mad about that.

[andallbite]

I know—and it's always going to be necessary. But something like that is worth doing.

You make it very difficult to worry about anything. You're determined to be hopeful, aren't you?

[ Eren's grown to be realistic about many things, but through it all, he'd be nothing if not idealistic. He's very hopeful, and full of many dreams; it just isn't every day someone acknowledges that, or even agrees. She may not be smiling, but a subtle grin tugs at the corners of his own mouth. ]

What other option do we have? [ Besides, y'know, dying. ] I'm not going to let anything hold me back from making it out of this, and neither should anybody else.

[survivra]

Now that's the point I was trying to make.

[ Another time Katsa might have laughed. She's still a little too afraid, a little too riled up to do so, but suddenly they're agreeing in full. ]

I'm not sure how. But everyone should be ready to fight.

[andallbite]

We're not the only two who are. Anyone else is going to need to realize that sooner or later, they'll have to step up, too.
