[Armin lands behind Shiro, gratefully sliding off Hilde's back. He watches Shiro and MC for a moment, before turning his attention to Hilde, stroking her sharp neck carefully.]

While we handle things here, could you go round up the others? They don't need to keep searching now that we've found him.

[Hilde warks, bopping the top of Armin's head with her beak --stay good, soft egg-- before taking off again.

And with that taken care off, Armin steps closer to Shiro, glancing at him, at MC, then at Krieg in the distance, and back at Shiro.]

Should we... go talk to him?
