[ The ocean... a body of water full of salt, but so big that merchants could work their whole lives and never get it all out.

I wanted to show Armin the world we dreamt about.
An ocean turned to blood. Eighty percent of humanity, one of the first things Maruki ever learned about him, just proving a point that he'd try to impart much later. Don't file away that number in your head like it's nothing. Nothing Eren has ever told him has been filed away like it's nothing.
Including this.
Maruki ducks his head to try to catch his eye. Smiling, gentle, kind. ]
He told me that I'd like you because of how smart you are. He was right. Hi, Armin.
