Um... This is Bertolt, and if you're hearing this I'm probably busy. You can leave a message here or call back later if you want? ...Can I start over?

I don't think you should blame yourself like that. Until this happened to Shiro, I didn't even know it was a possibility. I'm not even sure Jean knew this was something that could happen. And we've all travelled before without any incident.

And, well, I know I'm not actually Jean, but I think that if he would hear you blame yourself for this, he'd probably tell you you're being an idiot. You know how he feels about people overthinking things.

And I think we'll be fine without Marcel. I'm very grateful for the offer, of course, but we are not really in any trouble here. There isn't anything Marcel could do. And aren't you travelling? You probably need him more than we do here.

I know--

<sub>[He can't help it though. He's a worrier and a warrior. Mostly a worrier, but still.

The rejection stings though, but... Wouldn't Jean want him to stand up for himself? Or even Reiner? He has to be more assertive--]</sub>

...You know it's not a matter of whether or not there's trouble, Armin. I can't sit by and do nothing while I'm so far away. Jean slept with Marcel and I for so long that it's... He doesn't have to do anything except be there. I can't, so he has to do it in my place.

I'm just not sure how Blitz is going to react. He's already really on edge and grouchy. You know how protective he can get of Jean and without Jean there to calm him down, he's really... even worse than normal.

Bringing in even more pokemon... he might not react well to that.
