[At least Jean knows, and nobody got into too much of a mess because of it. Hange supposes it was the best outcome, all things considering.]
[Now on to the monkey elephant in the room, a topic which is going to be more problematic.]
I'm not suggesting that I trust you outright, as you are now. But the circumstances are different. You were children sent to carry out a mission behind enemy lines. Do you intend to continue it here?
[Bertolt and Annie are not here anyway, but Reiner is. The only need for hostilities is if he provokes it. Hange has nothing against him personally; yes he broke their walls and doomed countless innocents into becoming titan food, but their own side can hardly play the innocent victim here considering the destruction they caused in Liberio when "rescuing" Eren.]
Zeke Yaeger betrayed what little trust we offered to him, and countless lives were lost. Did you know that betrayal also carried over to your own "people"? Next time you see Gabi, ask her about Falco. See if she trusts Zeke.
[Maybe it's harsh to involve Gabi in this, because Hange genuinely likes her a lot! But it's needed to sow the seed of doubt in Reiner's mind. Not only is Zeke untrustworthy, but there's no way in hell that Levi isn't going to immediately slice his head off the moment he shows up here. If he shows up here.]
