[ She wouldn't have minded, but she'll respect his decision. If that's what he wants, there's no point to argue it. Reiner could handle whatever he was responsible for.
[ Annie's terrible at volunteering information, but Reiner well knew that. She's not unwilling to tell him what she knows, though. He's the only person that gets that treatment now. ]
[Choked her...? His jaw sets firmly at that, but he stays silent. He's not about to question Annie, especially when she already has reason to thoroughly kick his ass.]
[ It makes her distinctly uncomfortable to have him say something like that to her. They were comrades that had to count on each other, but trust... trust was a very big leap. Could they really have trust between them? ]
[Maybe he is stupid. Reiner doesn't answer that comment though. Reiner trusted her. She had never wavered in her duty, never sold them out when she easily could have done so to lessen her on punishment.]
[ He couldn't possibly know how it all went down. He didn't know she's wavered, broke and ran when it all seemed to come together against her. She'd wanted to live. ]
Go rest. We can't afford to wear ourselves out here.

(No, he couldn't.) ]

I want to ask you about someone. Big Boss.

no subject
He says he knows you. I don't know if I can trust him.
no subject
[ Simple as that. Still, she continues to speak. ]
He's shown me some moves. Hand-to-hand. I've never seen anyone fight like him.
no subject
Maybe I'll ask if he can teach me.
no subject
He'd be... not a bad ally, maybe. [ An awkward pause, then she adds: ] He can take me down no problem.
[ In short, she's utterly amazed by his technique. ]
no subject
Really? ...I guess that's not a surprise. [He'd kicked Reiner's ass pretty easily.]
no subject
[ There's a soft undercurrent of tension. It's not too serious, but she's a little disgruntled that he'd say that. ]
no subject
He kicked my ass really, really easy. And you make it look easy, so...
no subject
[ Reiner, she's gonna kick your ass. ]
no subject
Uh...
no subject
[ She's going to keep that little quote in mind. ]
no subject
Annie?
no subject
[ She eyes him steadily, considering. ]
Sorry if I've gone too soft for your tastes. A weak girl like me...
[ Now she's just fucking with him. Maybe. ]
no subject
I heard you beat the crap out of Mikasa.
no subject
That's how I found out that old man could fight. He didn't give me a chance to take her out.
no subject
Bet she was spitting mad. Probably wasn't even grateful that he saved her.
no subject
[ She ducks her head for a moment, eyes bright. Amusement didn't show easily on her features, but it was lurking. ]
Still, maybe that's true.
no subject
Hey. You know I trust you, right?
no subject
I'm not someone to trust.

I'm tired.
