[Jean swallows and sits back, gently pulling out of her embrace. He looks down his front; the bruises are gone, and there's only faint, pinkish circles on his flesh where the burns had been. He runs a hand over himself, wonderingly, before looking up at her with a faint grin.]
At least if he wants to see me shirtless now, I won't be in for a lecture?
Oh, sure, like it's a good idea to set your face on fire.
[She huffs at him.]
Look, I understand that you were in pain. Really, I get it. But....
[She heaves a sigh, and turns away.]
Please don't do that again. I'm sure the people from your world-your other friends, whatever-have been worried as hell about you. Maybe even more than me.
[And tended to Jean's wounds, and made him shower, and then held him when he cried. Really, he doesn't deserve a friend like Armin any more than he deserves a friend like Marco.]

You're lucky that I don't sit on your face and smother you for being dumb. Seriously Jean.

I won't, though. I promise.

[She tsked him, before leaning down to kiss him on the forehead.]
Thanks Jean.

[He leans up to kiss her chin after she gets his forehead.]
No, thank you. It would've been another week or more before those burns healed.

[She'll just...yeah she'll lightly kiss his lips now.]
Least I could do. I'm glad you're doing better now.
