"I'm fine!" It's a strangled, sharp assertion, and probably not very convincing. But he doesn't want Albert to lose focus worrying about him. He's in pain, but the magic worked, didn't it? And when he looks up to try and see what the Titan is doing, he also sees what Albert's doing and it's... it's not good, is it? They're both suffering from some sort of problem, aren't they?
"I've... I've got it, just..." Flame form isn't the right choice now. He's going to need mobility. The pain's still present, but it's starting to subside, so there's only a slight shake in his hands as he trades the red-gemmed ring for a green one. Snap, his hand passes over the palm-shaped front of the driver, and off goes another burst of noisy magic. "Hurricane, please! Fu-Fu, Fu-Fu-Fu-Fu!" Which might be hard to hear over the absolutely agonized shout that Haruto lets out when the mana leaves him and the spell is cast. The pain was even greater than the first time, to the point that his legs momentarily give way, and he drops to his knees. The circle of magic that he normally flicks outwards to manifest instead forms upon the ground, for that's where his hand has come to rest, and it rises up to cover him, manifesting black and silver armor with shining green embellishments.
Even after the magic fades, he's doesn't have it sufficiently together to push to his feet, though.
