[Aubrey looks up to him, physically, and his expression nearly throws her yet again. He’s smiling, tearing up… is he that touched? But that pained hope… it’s something else. Something better.
[It’s beautiful. Armin is beautiful. She looks into his glistening eyes and words don’t work, so…
[Briefly, softly, she kisses him again; on the cheek this time, with ample time to move if he doesn’t want it. It’s fine if he doesn’t. And regardless, a whisper through a pained smile:] Thank you....
[He isn't expecting the kiss. It's only on the cheek, but with no dare to provoke it, it feels...real, somehow. Armin's fingertips barely ghost over where he feels the shape of her lips lingering.
[He really wants nothing more, in that moment, then to kiss her again.
[But...they need to wait for Eren. He smiles, genuine, with a breathless laugh.]

Of course. Always.
