[ Logically, what Armin is saying makes sense. If Reiner were calm, he could piece it together, realizing that something magical must have affected Armin's behavior. He could take things a step at a time, ensure he's on solid ground, and figure out where the hell they stand.

Those lights, huh?! Those lights?! Are you gonna claim they blinded you back home?! Are you gonna hide behind some bullshit excuse?!
[ Months of worry and regret. Months in this world spent feeling like a fucking idiot, reeling from the words, "Of course." Of course Armin lied to create an opening. Of course Armin manipulated Bertholdt's unspoken feelings for Annie. Of course Armin, the quick thinker, the good Scout, used every weapon at his disposal.
Of course. ]
Are you gonna talk and talk and fuck with my head again?!
[ "We haven't … even had a chance … to talk this over!!" ]
