Armin felt a chuckle elude his lips upon witnessing the girl squirm, offering her a polite half-smile at an attempt to lighten the mood (he had never been too keen on that, by the way—in fact, he was much more adept in creating awkward atmospheres rather than improving them.).

“No harm done,” he replied amiably, managing to slip away from her evident cover-up.
