Jean drinks more of the tea after Levi does. He suspects how Levi feels about Dolph is the same as himself; regardless, it's not a subject worth going into right now.
The less said about him, the better.
Levi's words have pink dusting his cheek, embarrassed by such honest words but happy to hear them yet again.
"We never know how much time we'll have with the people we care about," he answers honestly. He thinks of Hange, a bird in flight aflame in their last moments; he thinks of Sasha, who should have come home safe and sound after the raid in Liberio. He thinks of Erwin, and Squad Levi, and an empty senior break room with only the man across from him in it.
"It's why it's worth enjoying what we have."
He takes another sip to punctuate it. But, his next question might surprise Levi.
"I know traditionally the family members walk down with the people getting married. Since Dolph doesn't have any, and I don't have any here, I was wondering if you and Erwin would be willing to."
