[Yes please remember that soft humans are much more burnable than dragons Eren.
Elliot pauses, biting his lip a little as he thinks over that rationale.]
That's..true...
[He really did need a bond, and he liked Eren. They made a good team, it was just the misunderstandings that got in the way. He's not sure a bond alone would solve that. Being able to form a combat link didn't magically make all misunderstandings go away in Class VII after all. But...it'd help. No denying that.]
Would your other Bond be okay with it? I know people put emotional weight on the bonds, so I don't wanna make anyone uncomfortable...
[Temporary bonds were whatever to Elliot. It'd be like getting mad at someone for forming a combat link. But if he's learned anything from his past couple weeks of being lectured- it's that a lot of people held the permanent bond to a much higher status. A symbol of their relationship, even. Elliot didn't fully understand it, but that didn't mean he wouldn't try to respect it.]
