[This is the first time she's ever seen him cry. Now, she knows he wears his emotions on his sleeve, but never did she think he would openly shed tears.

Minatsuki isn't sure how she feels about bearing witness to such a display of emotion. A part of her understands---it's always hard to lose someone you care about---but another part of her just wants him to stop.

Because it hits her a little too close to home. Strikes too many chords she outright forgot she had.

Once again, she's at a loss. How could she handle someone else's emotions when she barely had a grasp on her own? That said, the best she can manage in terms of actual comfort is an awkward pat on his shoulder before letting it go and looking down while rubbing the back of her neck, sounding vaguely bashful.]

Yeah---I mean, you said he's your best friend, right? [Her eyes briefly flick toward the corpse.] He'd want you to keep on keeping on, you know? Because...that's what friends do or whatever, right---

[And that's when she finally takes notice of the injuries on his arms. She frowns.]

Eren...what the fuck happened to your arms?
