[ What the fuck…that's a weird thing to hear, but he doesn't actually ask about it. Maybe he doesn't want to know. Why are they talking about him?

Just kidding, he figures they talk about him because Levi is still just babysitting him anyway. He is aware they both care about him, but there's still some nebulous feeling of what is deserved and what is not, and the idea that either of them might actually want to be around him at all is still hard for him to grasp. But that's especially true with Levi.

If that was "forever ago" though, maybe they don't still have to talk about him. It's not like he's done anything questionable that they're aware of. Probably.

Anyways, this isn't about him for once!

He does text Jean and Mikasa (separately) to ask them if they heard anything. Wait, does Mikasa even talk to Levi? Do they even get along? He has no idea. Doesn't matter right now. ]

If he only left today or yesterday it could be ages before he gets back. But could he get far enough away in a day that the messages don't send…?

[ He has no idea how cell phones work or where the range ends or what could cause that to happen.

If only Eren still had a sense of humour and could laugh at that image of Levi hugging a bear. But alas, not today. ]

Going alone would be stupid. He's not stupid.

[ Right, Hange? ]
