Summary
"The labor is progressing slowly," the midwife reports. "But there is no cause for concern, Your Majesty. If childbirth were a race, it would be run by komodo rhinos, not eel hounds."

Maybe someday, he can talk about this one.

Summary
Armin was sick of his own sadness, how fragile it made him feel—the way everyone treated him, as if he were that fragile. But Jean was one of the few that still looked at him like he was flesh and blood rather than a sheet of glass.
(Spoilers up to chapter 138 of the manga, based on the 'what if' scenario presented there. In the aftermath of Eren and Mikasa’s choice, Armin seeks comfort from a reliable source.)
