[Whether it ends up being trivial or not, whether they seriously think about testing it or not, Hange can hardly do it now that Levi is specifically asking them not to, can they?]
[Because they've already done that once before. Told him to just let them go and die, and although necessary it really was the shittiest thing imaginable. Honestly, the thought of doing it again just to pop up again a day or two later feels like rubbing salt into a wound that is slow to heal.]
...I won't do it. I won't die again, not if I can help it.
[A 'trivial' death is still a death. That knot in Hange's stomach that appeared upon hearing about Jean's demise still present as a reminder of that reality. Not if I can help it. Too conditioned to expect the worse, who knows what the future will bring.]
...But you have to promise me the same, Levi. Don't go getting yourself killed, and especially not on purpose. If you do, I might die for real..
