This is probably going to sound really weird but I have a question about girls. I've never thought about it before back home since there were more important things going on, but|

_{[Gods, okay. Just relax - it's just a simple question, right? What could go wrong?]}

What sort of things do they like? I mean, what do they find cute? I've thought about clothes but I don't know|

I don't know the sizes or anything so I was even thinking about a Pokemon but I think the ones that I'd find cute might scare or not be cute to some girls. I could probably take some ideas from TV or books or something too, though sometimes those can be a little

too dramatic

She's cute.

[So is this Bertolt's type? Blonds?]

So you met her during that contest?

You think so?

_[Maybe.]

Before that, but we met for the first time in person at it. Doodle ran off on me there, but she helped me find him.

[He hums. She does look cute. Armin doesn't know her, and really, physical attraction has never been a super important thing for him (Mr Newt is handsome, he thinks now, but really, he noticed his mind first) but she certainly looks like she has a nice smile.]

That was nice of her.

Have you been dating for a while?

Just a few days now. She actually, uh...

_{[Is he starting to sound a little sheepish? He totally is.]}

She asked me first.

[That doesn't surprise Armin. He knows Bertolt well enough to not be surprised that someone else had to make the first move. He's... well, he's Bertolt after all.]

And that's why you are looking for a gift now?

_{[It's incredibly difficult to be assertive as far as crushes go - there's a reason he went so long without telling Reiner how he felt, and why that had only happened here. Emotions are weird and pretty stupid sometimes.]}

Yeah. I-I mean, one that'll be the first one that's not just... friends-only, you know?

Something to celebrate?

[The suggestion is said with some humour though.]

Did you decide what you are getting her yet? I wouldn't mind sending you one of those scarves if you want to go with that.

Sort of, I guess? It's, um... I never had a chance to buy anything for the people I cared about back home. E-Even Reiner and I ended up pooling our money together to buy Annie something really nice once because we couldn't afford it separately.

_{[It was the nicest darn teddy bear in the district. Don't judge him.]}

I could send you the money for it if you find a nice one? I-It just has to be purple. Or, uh... Have purple in it.

I know. Not-- not that I ever had a girlfriend to buy anything for, but buying gifts is much easier here. It's nice to be able to.

[They are flush with money, after all. And without needing to worry about titans, they have so much time on their hands that they can actually dedicate it to new passions and hobbies.]

It wouldn't be a problem. I could go by the market after work. They have so many of them that there should be a purple one too.
