"Of course." Erwin can't help but wonder if he'd struggled like she is, when he was coming out of his haze. While the more analytical part of him wants to watch this all take place and see how it unfolds, the more human part of him is worried about his friend, and wants to get her somewhere safe and out of sight so she can have this struggle in privacy.

Once Diana is on her feet, Erwin slips his arm through one of hers and starts leading her out, politely diffusing any Robbie attempts to bother them. No, it's fine, I'm her neighbor and I'm taking her home, don't worry... It's almost astounding how quickly they accept that at face value, and leave them in peace. Today, Erwin is grateful for it; tomorrow, he'll wonder what would have happened if he'd had ill intent towards Diana.

Once they're out on the street and away from prying eyes, Erwin ducks his head close to hers and speaks quietly. "You're starting to wake up, aren't you? The lights are fading in your head. You're going to have a monstrous headache in a few minutes."
