[And that's new. Notable. Placid apathy turns into something else - Akechi meets his gaze, turns his chin upward. Wonders how far this reaction will go and opts to twist the metaphorical knife instead of pull it out. ]
Intentional or not, it could happen. Who knows - the second I turn into a foe, you may find comfort in being petty and exploiting what few know.
[And in the end, it really doesn't matter if Loki is exposed through Eren or otherwise. It's just a matter of privacy. Loki is Akechi Goro.]
[Eren loves Akechi. This is true. It will always be true. He wants his happiness, though he doesn't think it possible. He wants him to achieve his goal. He wants Akechi to win, but...
[They could easily become enemies. Akechi isn't wrong. Eren raises his eyebrows, lifting his chin as well. They can stare down their noses at each other.]
The day we become enemies, I plan on handling you myself. No one else will need to know what you've shared. I'm the only one you have to worry about using your secrets against you.
[Eren could end his life. There's a stark difference in their strength - it's the undeniable reality of their situation. Eren holds more power, but that doesn't mean Akechi is weak. Doesn't mean he would lay down. Akechi could take Eren with him - drag him into the rot to drown.
And in the end-
Eren is dead. Akechi isn't. He's not immortal. Doesn't yearn to live. Longs for bruises to wrap around his neck like a noose, for every breath to be stolen from his lungs. He's seen it time and time again. Akechi could win.
He presses a hand against his hip, lets the other arm rest against his side and stares, unwavering.]
Should such a time ever pass, of course, we'll see who comes out on top.
[A beat and a step forward - the closeness causing Akechi's arm to press against Eren's side.]
You don't know every secret, after all. I may have a way to break your mind and soul with a single touch - what's left of it, that is.
