Eren is mostly just wandering around because it's interesting. He doesn't have a quest right this moment, since he's pretty all right on money after the quests he did. He could use the break, probably. This place is so weird, with so much to see, the weird machines, the shops.
Of course he would know Reiner from far away. Reiner's silhouette stands out, taller than most other people, broad shoulders, the way he stands. He knows Reiner better than he should. What's strange, though, is that at first he thinks Reiner isn't moving.
Then he recognises the stance, some familiar spark. That's…does he have a gun? But no one is scared. No one is even paying attention. He has that weird helmet on, and…
Eren moves closer, walking quickly, heedless of other people around him or in his way. Just in case. Reiner wouldn't point a gun at a random person, but there are people here that he likely still considers enemies, so...
But it's…fake? He doesn't understand VR at all, having never experienced it. He's only vaguely aware of what video games even are, and he'd never been told about VR before. He stands and watches. The gun controller doesn't look like it could do any damage at all, not firing any sort of projectile. But Reiner still moves like he's shooting things on the blank space in front of him.
Fascinating.
Eren doesn't try any of that himself. Sounds like a good way to fuck up his sense of when and where. Sure, it's been a minute since the metal titan thing, but he's been on shaky ground ever since. Maybe another time when he's alone he'll try the weird video game thing. For now, he just watches.
Eventually the game ends and Reiner takes off the helmet.
Eren lingers in his peripheral, out of arm's length but not all that far away. This could go south, get ugly, threaten people. He doesn't want it to, not really, but it could and he has to acknowledge that in his head.
"Reiner," he says. He knows that the VR thing is some sort of game, even if he doesn't understand what that means. So he also asks, "Did you win?"
