[ He's taken aback by the view when he sees it, and it actually has a calming sort of effect on him. This world was cruel, shitty and unfair, but there were beautiful parts of it too, and it takes a scenery like this to remind him of that. The night sky seems to go on forever, stars twinkling upon the black canvas, and he can see their reflection in the nearby stream.

Trust me, Reiner says. Of course Jean will trust him. The boy beside him was the one who pulled him out of the miserable states he would fall into whenever he lost a fellow comrade or was forced to kill an enemy. Jean knows he's not cut out for the role he's in. His test results made him qualify, but his personality has always been weak. It was always Reiner who kept him moving forward, who held him up when he felt like he would falter.

It was that interaction with Krista that spurred Jean on to give Reiner a scolding today, however. He really feels like a selfish brat of a teenager right now. ]
