Eren, railing against the edges of his cage. Bertholdt, content to work within the limits of them. They could not be more different kinds of people. Eren is, still, someone he cares about immensely. Someone he resolved to destroy to save those that he loved.
The point, of course, that Bertholdt does not take anything in a way that will make him really angry. He's been controlling how he felt for a very long time now.
That doesn't mean there's not the slightest hint of annoyance. He doesn't know the relationship between Eren and Reiner, just yet. It's always been intense, a stronger thing than his and Eren's even before the revelations, but Bertholdt feels secure in knowing he is important to Reiner.
Tell him what, like he couldn't guess.
"That I'm here, waiting. He'll figure out the rest." He says it measured, calm, confident without being overly so. There are so many things he does not know about this Eren that is older. So many things that Reiner has learned about their future, what happened after Bertholdt died. He's confident that Reiner will show up, sooner or later.
he's a perfect angel - said no one ever
