He's only human, Eren. We all are.

... You know as well as I do that we all aren't. You're the only person... in this apartment right now that really is anymore.

And being human doesn't give him any excuse for acting like the does.

You're human, Eren. _{[He doesn't want to hear otherwise.]} And I know it doesn't give him an excuse for acting awful. What I meant to say is that we're all prone to making mistakes. We know the kind of person Jean can be. We just need to wait for him to come to that realization.

[ He huffs and lifts his head again, leaning it back against the couch cushions. ]

It's too much of a waste of time to sit and wait for him to crawl out of his own ass... if he doesn't want to come along, fine. We'll leave him here and get by on our own.

Let's not talk about Jean anymore, okay?

Alright.

[ He could go on forever, but Armin's doing him this favor, so he'll abide. ]

How'd the rest of the party go? Did you drink with them?

I didn't drink. I don't like what alcohol does to people.

We've never known a good drinker, have we? You're too smart to be out of it like that, anyway.

I can't say we have... _{[Even though Hannes looked out for them when they were younger, he still only ended up rising up to his full potential once he swore off drinking.]}

I wouldn't want to be able to not think clearly. The thought is frightening, honestly.

I don't think you've ever not thought clearly... or ever not... thought.

I think I have to agree with you on that one. My mind never shuts up, even when I want it to.

I think it's good... never let us down before. But, you might wear it out early if you don't just sit and drift sometimes.

You'd probably sleep better if you could, anyway. Not that I'm in a position to talk about any of that. I'm shit about it, too.

Sleeping's hard...especially alone.

Where's Mikasa when you need her? We'll have to nag each other, won't we?

Sorry... if I wasn't still worried about Ymir, I'd have you sleep here with me. Besides, you deserve a bed, anyway.

I'm no good at nagging.

You should sleep over sometime, Eren. The bed is big enough for the two of us...

I'd have to sneak in.

I don't think that'd be necessary...

Look how things turned out when I didn't just sneak in when no one was awake.

I had to put up with Jean's loud drunk sex with Marco that one night. Letting my best friend sleep over when I want him to is the least he can do for making me suffer through that.

I'll tell him to shut up if he has a problem with it.

... You know they're both going to be nosy as hell and try and catch us fucking or something, right?

That's what locks on doors are for, Eren. B-Besides, sharing a bed doesn't always have to equate to...you know...

I know that, but have you talked to those guys? Really talked to them? I don't think they realize it.

...Yeah. You're right. Jean decided to ask me about my sex life tonight...that was awkward.

Even more reason why they can't catch me there. You'll never hear the end of it.

Fuck, you, too? Did you tell him we fucked so he shut up about it finally?

I can put up with it. I've endured worse.

_{[There's a little sigh as he moves to smooth Eren's bangs away from his forehead.]}

He asked me if you were the one I slept with and I told him yes. I'd have thought it obvious, but I guess he felt the need to ask anyway.

_{[Armin deliberately leaves out the part about Jean offering to help. The last thing he needs is Eren upset again.]}
