Hi. I have to take the train from Cologne to Paris on the 9th of August. The friend I travel with managed to reserve a seat, but when I tried to it didn't let me because it said there were no reservations available. What can I do? Can I get on the train anyway if I add it to my pass, but don't have the reservation?

You could try going to a station in Germany and seeing if they can get you a seat reservation, or you could try another route like going to Brussels, Strasbourg or Basel first?
More likely is that this train is CANcelled-TLs has cancelled-due to both staff shortage and shortage of parts for repairs of many of its trains. You had better look into ALternatives for both of you.
The best I can see is likely normal trains along Rhine and Moselle to Trier-LUXembourg, then a FRench TGV from there.

Don’t get on the train without a reservation you will only get fined and put off at the next stop, where ever it is.
Looking right now the 9:07 Via Köln Messe/Deutz - Köln Messe/Deutz Gl.11-12 - Karlsruhe Hbf seems to still have a space available.
