[ Despite the grimness of the situation, Eren smiles a little watching Armin just think. He's sure he's never met anyone smarter. If anyone can game the Games, it's gotta be Armin.
They just need more information on what actually happens. Some of the before stuff is a mystery. There's training of some kind, though training in the actual Districts has always been forbidden. 1 and 2 don't care; the career tributes there definitely come in with training.
Eren knows a little about how to use a knife, but nothing formal enough. Is that the kind of weapon he should pick? That's pretty personal; you have to get close to someone to kill them with a knife. Well, it's not like he cares all that much. Other people don't matter in this equation, even if they're only kids.
The only thing that matters is not letting Armin die. That's it. That's all there can be. ]
W-wait, we have to appeal to our audience? How the hell are we gonna do that?
[ Eren is self-aware enough to know he's not exactly the most personable or inspiring person alive. He doesn't realise that sometimes he is both of those things, not really. ]
They dress us up and parade us around, but District 12 doesn't do so hot with sponsors. You know that.
[ He has a feeling Armin will do fine at the interview stuff. He has a good idea of how to get into other people's heads and say what they want to hear. Eren is just Eren; he says whatever he means at the time. ]
