"Yes, his name is Jay...and it's a pleasure to meet you as well Scarlet," Noelle said. Scarlet spoke about the trainees and the military corps, a touch of humor in her voice. Noelle smiled, feeling more confident by the minute. It didn't look like Scarlet hated her. Yet, as the red-hair girl continued to talk, Noelle had a feeling that Scarlet wanted to join the Scouting Corps as well. She chuckled, a smile on her face. "You sound exactly like my brother," she started, staring at the ground as she kicked a tiny rock. Freedom. Searching for a new life outside the walls. They were all dreams that would certainly lead to death. However, Noelle felt compelled to follow those dreamers, to see if perhaps they could change this world. 

"I also want to join the Survey Corps," she finally admitted. "And I'm glad you'll be one of my comrades," she added, her gaze shifted to Scarlet.

Jay laughed in good humor, agreeing with what Joseph had said earlier. He did admit he could be a bit hot-headed, but it was mostly just the adrenaline. Jay curiously peered at other as he continued to talk. The same branch? A glimmer of hope arose. So there were some people out there who wanted to search for a way out of these walls. That was good, very good. Hopefully, he would be able to meet other people with the same dreams. His thoughts were broken when Joseph had mentioned something about him trying to change something. Jay thought for a moment before answering. 

"Well, I hope," he began. "Being caged inside these walls is such a drag. Those titans have been terrorizing us for far to long. It's time to strike back." Jay closed his eyes, lifting his chin a bit. His mother used to say that a lot. Ever since he and Noelle was little, their mother would rant to them about outside the walls and how everyone else was too weak to fight back. Finally, after years of waiting, he was finally at the training camp. He just hoped he would be able to make his mother proud.
