[ He does mean it. Had he never been woken by the Natha, he would never have known that his old friends were alive. He has so little in the world now, back home and here. Having old friends he had valued so much back means the world to him. He would do a lot of insane things if it meant he could help Jack. Even if that meant facing a dragon. It wouldn't be the first time he threw himself into danger for his commanders. ]
I see. Keeping busy. Maybe I need to do more of that. If not as a knight, then maybe in other ways. I want to help our people and theirs too. But I'm not very good at anything that isn't fighting. [ That's the real problem with the both of them. They'd been soldiers for too long. Reinhardt's been in the military since he was an older teen. He's never known a life that's not been in battle in some way or another. He honestly doesn't know how to function in peace time, so he purposely seeks danger and adventure.
But his leg keeps him from doing too much. He's pushing it already.]
I trust Ana. I just don't like the shots. If there was another way, I'd be happy to have it. But magic... I really think the magic around here is neat, but... [ He isn't certain about magical healing. There's only one magical healer he might have gone to, and he's back up in the pods. ] if I keep babying it, I'll never get back to being where I should be. Don't worry about it too much, Jack. I'm fine. Would I lie to you?
