    “Sometimes the things we love the most are the things we have to destroy before they destroy us,” she surmises neatly.

    Eren pauses to consider that.

    "That's very gothic, Mikasa," he tells her, smiling. When he turns to look at her, she's smiling too, pleased.

    You’re angry and you don’t even know why. It’s like you’re always angry. Like wrath situated itself into your core, etched your bones with unquenchable fury.

    and she will die someone else’s.

    That is your biggest tragedy. Even if you had dared to follow some other path you would have ended this way. Dead and young. You were never meant for happy endings.

    You are an ouroboros of sadness, Eren Jaeger.

    and his leg is probably going to take far more time to heal but it doesn’t really matter because it’s never going to heal now. Not properly, not in any way that matters.

    A man sees him struggling and makes a motion towards him, approaching him. Levi can read his intention from miles away. He has never sought help. He’d rather die.

    It’s just another thing he can’t afford to do.

    Can't stop the not-so-careful way he digs his fingers into the bruises afterward, the way he lets the pain blossom into something sharp and aching. Something he deserves.

    Summary

    Mickey editorializes the bedtime stories he reads, just like he edits what he says about their lives to everyone else. There aren't any happily ever afters on the South Side. Not ones like that, anyway. They have to write a different story.
