[God dammit Cole, he was gonna totally finish getting his shit together and leave, stop torturing himself with more connections to people and then you had to go and make him feel the tiniest bit better. YOU MONSTER.
Because Levi knows what he's saying to be true- lived through it himself in the brief time he'd been back to his own world before being whisked to this death trap- but still... The external reminder is something he'd needed to hear.
It doesn't fix his problem, though, the problem of finding himself so alone for the first time in almost a year. He knows he doesn't really have the time to feel sorry for himself, but it's happening anyway.
And he's not particularly proud of it.]
This friend of yours. [He finishes doing up his own boots- blessedly free of laces to tangle in the first place- then looks up at Cole with a slight frown.] Are things better for him where he is now?
[Given the perpetually fucked state of the Tranquility it might sound like a stupid question... But you never know. Are titans worse than what happens here...? It's not so black and white for everyone on board.]
