One of the reasons. [Armin does not further explain his situation. He is not looking forward to telling Eggsy about it. He assumes someday they might be good enough friends for that. But Armin doesn't want to relive seeing Eggsy go through all that care when his face is already worn with so many.] War is messy like that.
[Liza goes to sniff at Eggsy's feet. Armin shrugs.]
I don't know. But I won't waste my time here. I've been away from the war too long as it is.
[Armin hates himself for getting involved with Eggsy, falling in love when he knew the risk of losing him. Armin hates himself for caring for someone enough to consider staying in a place like Eros. It's easier to hate himself, to numb himself to the reality of the loss this Eggsy and this new location represent.]
Do the captains like boys? Maybe I should one or both of them a visit.
