[ Jean has made one promise he can't keep, and it's to Eren. It's this exact thing; that Eren would stay here with him and not let the future come to pass. He wants to believe it's something that can happen.
He knows better.
When Dolph raises his head Jean shifts a little to look at him. He looks distraught, of course - anyone would be hearing someone they cared about is dead, by their own hand - but he's not crying, at least.
He curls his hands around Dolph's face again. ]
I'm sorry he's gone but - at least you had time together, with Livio. Sometimes we never get the chance at all.
