[For her or for them (him? The answer is both.) He might not appreciate her hovering, but she's been a constant presence all his life, save the years before he knew her and the weeks he'd spent in custody before she'd reunited with him at the Corps HQ. He trusts her to survive as much as he can, but it's distant and cold comfort in the sake of a kidnapping. ALASTAIR-condoned or not.]
I don't need you to tell me
[Sharper than Bolin deserves, but he's made himself an easy target for venting his frustration. Rather than taking that as concern for himself, Eren takes that to mean what he's been thinking this whole time—that he ought to do something about it. Except he can't, he's tried, come up empty and useless and powerless, and that stings and scares him more than most things he's seen here. That the universe is huge and cruel and Eren is small and angry and battering against it and nothing he does makes a damn lick of difference.]
I'm not just going to let them do this
[Take her away under their own whims, just like they had when they abducted them in the first place. Even if it takes him the whole of the mission or longer, he'll figure a way to get her back.]
