[Everyone back home knows what it means to be a Shiganshina survivor. Anyone who knew Eren in training knew just how seriously he takes it. Explaining why it might be that way is strange. It's survival. Why wouldn't it be personal?
He can remember talking to her about titans briefly, way back at the rendezvous. But he'd never gotten into it much, back then. It's sort of frustrating, because he never really seems to be able to convey just how big a deal they are. How important it is that they fight back. People here don't understand what it's like. And that's not a bad thing. But there's no amount of text that can get across the right amount of burning hate for the subject at hand.]

They're vermin. They need to be exterminated from the world. I'll kill every last one of them for what they've done.
[To humanity. (To him.) Vriska, you have no idea how personal it is. Eren's always been incredibly determined to free humanity from the walls. But watching your mother get eaten alive and your hometown get overrun and your comrades get slaughtered has a way of turning a grudge into a vendetta.]

If we don't fight back we won't stand a chance. Humanity will be wiped out instead. I'm not letting that happen.
[They're under attack. They can't hide forever. You fight to survive. If you don't fight, you don't stand a chance. And if things are similar for her back home, she can understand that, can't she? Vriska doesn't strike him as the type to go belly up.]
