As Reiner stops to look at her, she briefly looks away from him and sees it. She almost says something -- the portal is right in front of them, but that's not what catches her eyes first. Either way, she's delayed from saying something when Reiner finally realizes who she is. That little smile comes back to her.
"Yeah." She nods. "It's..." She looks off to the side. "Complicated." That's a bit of an understatement, but shockingly, she does have a way to sort of explain. "It's...kinda like the Coordinate?" She says tentatively, raising her hand to make...some kind of up-and-down gesture that's supposed to represent the Paths. "In Nightwake, not just people from different worlds, but different points in time from the same world can all be connected, here. It's uh..." She lets out a little laugh, not really knowing how he'll react to this. "857 for me!"
To her knowledge, still the furthest ahead. Levi and Hange are the closest, then Eren (although with the Founder and all of his weird memories...she doesn't even know if time affects that guy). Everybody else, including Reiner, seems to be a ways back.
"What's the last thing you remember?" She asks. She again starts looking at his chin and even touches it with her thumb this time. "Hmmmm. You haven't started growing your beard yet, so it really is a while back, huh...?"
A short distance away, amidst a now long since extinguished campfire, some discarded tools for cooking and one....very big hole in the ground, is the portal out of here. Now that they're not directly intruding on Reiner's memories anymore, she's actually fine standing here for just a minute. She figures it might be a good idea to figure a few things out before Reiner is, y'know, running into all of the people Reiner fought to the death with a bunch of times that she would kind of like to still be friends with.
