Hi there! sorry it took so long for the next update. thanks so much for all the reviews! so encouraging :D as requested REINER is up next. this one is perhaps a little darker than some of the others... let me know what you think and who should be next! Hope you are having a good day :)

"Hello… Reiner, do you mind if I call you Reiner?"
"Not at all." The smile from the teen, though small, was somehow reassuring.
"Alrighty then, let's get started shall we? Now from what I hear, you are quite protective of your squad mates."

For some reason the kid shifted slightly, "Yeah I guess you could say that. I want to be there for them you know? Sometimes people just need a little push to help them along."
"And would you say you were good at that? Breaking through people's boundaries so to speak?"
"Umm… I guess that is one way to put it."
"But don't you ever find that a strain? It doesn't matter how thick skinned you are, eventually something is going to break that emotional armour of yours."
His patient fidgeted again, coughing a little into one hand. "That, uhh, I don't think that has happened yet."

Dr Mendarl could practically feel the teen begin to close off, becoming more reluctant to respond as the session continued. Desperately, he tried to find some common ground… "Well from all reports you are an exemplary soldier for humanity." That got a small smile and slight frown, odd combination, but he carried on, "this is after all a strange sort of war which we are caught in. Not like the wars we read of in history where we would attack the enemy in their stronghold, eliminate them from the source so to speak. Imagine that- being able to just march into the titan's hometown and destroy them."

He looked at Reiner expectantly, as if waiting for the kid to make some comment, then frowned when he saw the blonde's rapidly paling complexion. "Excuse me sir, I am not feeling that good." And he was left staring at empty air as the cadet ran from the room.
