#eren fanfiction

LIVE

just some general headcanons about actor!eren bc I like this au :-)

Word Count: 1k

Warnings: mentions of mental health issues, but I think that’s it!

Appearance:

Eren is pretty tan
He likes to spend time outside so he’s pretty friendly with the sun
He has freckles
(you can see them under the makeup in closeups on camera)
He’s very athletic so he’s pretty muscular but in like a lean way
He’s literally drop dead gorgeous
Like he was cute as a kid/pre-teen but puberty hit him like a freaking truck
Like between season 3 and 4 when puberty was finishing up for him he just like
Changed into a god
So if half the world wasn’t already in love with him they would be now
That being said he doesn’t totally enjoy always being praised for his looks
Like yeah once in a while but he’s had times where fans just reduce him to his face or his body and it makes him uncomfortable
Like notice him for his talent too!!!!
Speaking of his face, he has the literal most beautiful eyes ever
When the show started airing there were thousands of posts asking whether or not that was his real eye color
He confirmed that they are, in fact, his real eyes
He’s tall but people don’t always realize it bc the rest of the cast (minus Levi lol) are also pretty tall
So when people see him in real life/in pictures with other people they’re always like huh???!!!
Bc he’s so good looking he’s done modeling for several luxury brands like Gucci, YSL, Versace, etc.
Like he did an ad for the Versace Eros cologne and it wold out within 20 minutes of the ad being released
He’s actually really fashionable
I see him having similar style to people like Tom Holland, Taehyung from BTS, and Hyunjin from Stray Kids
He’s got tons of hoodies too
Perfect for stealing
(Which the rest of the cast definitely does)

Background/How He Got Started:

He has a background in boxing/martial arts that he started in because he got bullied when he was younger and needed an outlet for his emotions
So he enrolled in some martial arts and gymnastics classes at a local gym and ended up really liking it
He started gaining a small following before landing his role on AOT by posting boxing/martial arts vids and tutorials
It helped him a lot when he got the job
Speaking of which, AOT was his first role
He had started taking acting lessons seriously after he did a few school plays and ended up applying for the open casting call that had been put out for AOT
He actually almost didn’t end up submitting his audition bc he figured nothing would happen and they wouldn’t look twice at someone who had no real experience
But the directors were like “oh my god this is exactly who we’re looking for where has he been all this time????!!!”
Cause like they’d been having major trouble casting their main role
The candidates were great and the auditions were good but no one really fit
And then came Eren
The directors were all like: oh my GOD???!!!!
YOU ARE LITERALLY EREN FREAKING YEAGER???!!!!
So it was no question that he was going to be Eren
He had this haunting way of portraying Eren while also embodying how excited/angry he was in the first few seasons
Plus he could already do tons of cool tricks!!!
So it was a win-win situation

Personality:

He can sometimes pretty reserved and quiet when he first meets people
Which makes people think he’s kind of mean/standoffish and intimidating
(Maybe it’s his resting bitch face)
But he’s actually super chill and very fun when he gets comfortable
He can be very affectionate to the people he’s close with i.e. the main cast and crew of AOT
Lots of hugs and arms around shoulders and random friendly cheek pecks all around
Expect to be attacked with a bear hug if he sees so much as a frown on anyone’s face
He’s actually really funny
Like he doesn’t try he’s just funny
Idk how to explain it
Like the facial expressions he makes when someone does something questionable?
Iconic
Theres hour long compilations on youtube of them
Connie says something weird?
Eren has a face for that
Jean acts cute for his fans?
Eren has a face for that
Someone says they ship (idk) Mikasa and Zeke?
EREN HAS A FACE FOR THAT
AND THEY ARE ✨HYSTERICAL✨
He spoils so much
Because he forgets what has been revealed in the show and what’s been revealed in the manga
And like people wonder if some of the stuff that happens in the manga is gonna happen in the show
And sometimes he can’t remember so he just says stuff and then Zeke, Levi, and Hange have to do damage control
Poor baby just sits there confused until he realizes
He has this aura about him that puts people at ease
Bc he’s very charismatic and charming and easygoing
Someone makes a mistake? Hey, no biggie he’ll help them work on it and they’ll get it next time
But he’s also very serious about his work
Incredibly hard working and strives to be his best
When he doesn’t feel like he did his best he can get very upset and depressed bc he’s actually also very self conscious
Being in the spotlight all the time will do that to you
But he’s working on it
He actually had to have a psychologist on set for season 4-5 because of how bad it was getting and how much bad stuff he had to act like he was doing
Like there’d be a torture scene and he’d feel like shit after having to do it even though everyone knew it was just acting
But Eren doesn’t like it even if it’s fake
(‘cause he’s lowkey a softie and very protective of the people he cares about)
Also bc of the amount of just sheer bad stuff Eren the character does in the final two seasons and the amount of controversy surrounding the character he gets concerned
Bc idk he works hard on the character and the show and he wants people to enjoy it yk
But Eren has an amazing support group with the cast and crew
And no matter what happens or how deep Eren gets in his mind
They will always have his back
