“So… Zoe?”
“What, Chlo?”
Zoe looked back over at her friend.
The fight that had just occurred was abrupt, and had caught them both off-guard.
But the cause did make them think….
“What branch are you going to apply to?”
Zoe stared at Chloe. “Uh…”
She switched her gaze to the table.
She didn’t want to tell her this… She knew she wouldn’t like it.
“..Zoe?”
“I’m gonna apply for the Survey Corps…” She muttered, quickly shutting her eyes.
“Zoe, you WHAT?!!”
Zoe opened her eyes again.
….People were staring, Chloe was standing up with her chair knocked back to the floor.
Slowly, Chloe pulled her chair back, and sat back down.
“Sorry, Zoe…”
“It’s fine..”
Zoe looked back up at Chloe and smiled. “So.. What branch are YOU going to apply for?”
Chloe set her elbows down on the table, and rested her chin in her hands.
“I was thinking The Garrison… Neither of us can apply for the Military Police Brigade since we’re not in the top ten, and the Survey Corps is a bit too dangerous for me…”
Zoe nodded. “You know.. I thought you’d go with them…”
Chloe laughed. “That predictable, am I?”
“No, no! I just.. Couldn’t see you agreeing to something so dangerous..”
“And I didn’t think you would agree to something so dangerous, myself..”
Zoe sighed. “Listen.. I have my reasons, and you know my reasons. I’ve told you over and over..”
“Yeah, I just… Didn’t realize that you really were going to go through with this..”
Zoe smiled. “Well.. I can definitely try not to get myself killed, okay?”
Chloe playfully punched her arm. “Yeah, you’d BETTER not get yourself killed, or I’ll do it myself!”
“How would you manage that? I’d already be DEAD, genius!” Zoe asked, laughing.
“You think I know?!”
“Well, you’re the one who said it!”
The two began laughing, now just joking around.
“Seriously though, try not to die if you really DO join the Survey Corps.”
“Yeah, I will.”

((Quick note: this one takes place before the one in the first spoiler))

“Hey, Chloe..?”
“Yeah?”
“Do you ever wonder how we got here?”
Chloe sat up, confused. “Huh?”
Zoe shrugged, staring absentmindedly at the grass. “Just… Here. Like… How did everyone know to go here and build the walls here…? You know?”
“Uhh.. I dunno, Zoe.. ...Is there a reason you’re asking me?” Chloe asked, her voice having a worried tone to it.
“You’re the only person I can ask.. And.. I was just thinking.. It’s kind of odd how all that remained of humanity knew that this is where they should go...” Zoe explained. “It’s not like we can read each other's minds..”
“Wouldn’t it be cool if we could though?!”
Zoe smiled. “Yeah, it would be, wouldn’t it?”
“We could talk about secret stuff and no one would know ‘cause they couldn’t hear us!!” Chloe exclaimed, throwing her hands into the air excitedly.
Zoe sat up. “Or if we had a sleepover, we could talk to each other late at night and no adults could tell us to go to bed!”
They both giggled.
“Or we could talk about… you know…” Chloe pointed to her left, and the nearest edge of the wall. “Out there without getting into trouble!!”
“That would be AWESOME!!” Zoe exclaimed.
They both laughed, again.
“Hey.. Do you think we’ll ever get to explore the world?”
Chloe shrugged. “Maybe! What would we do out there, though?”
“I don’t know.. Explore, I guess?”
“Yeah! And we would get to climb super tall trees, too!!”
“Hey, what sort of animals do you think are out there?”
Chloe looked at the ground. “Uhhh… I don’t know, but there’s probably thousands!!”
“There are probably more than that!”
Zoe stopped. “Wait… Do any numbers bigger than a thousand?”
“....TWO thousand?”
Zoe shook her head giggling. “Noo! I mean bigger than ANYTHING thousand!”
Chloe shook her head back. “No, I don’t.”
“Oh, well… I bet there’s more than just thousands out there!”
Chloe grinned. “Yeah!!”
“Zoe, where are you?”
The two girls looked towards the voice.
“Oh… Dad probably wants me to go home now.” Zoe explained.
“Aww…” Chloe whined. “Well, maybe tomorrow we can talk again?” She asked.
Zoe nodded. “Yeah! See you tomorrow, Chloe!” She answered, standing up.
“Okay! Bye, Zoe!!”

“Ah-! Um.. Natsuki, what’s this?” Yuri asked, pointing at the box of cupcakes Natsuki was now shoving at her.
Natsuki looked down. “Uh… I made some extra cupcakes and thought you might like them. But I mean… It’s not like I made them f-for.. You know...YOU or anything…!! Stupid….”
Yuri smiled.
She had been around Natsuki enough to know that she meant that she DID make them for her.
“Oh! Well, thank you Natsuki.”
Natsuki blushed, then pushed them towards Yuri again. “J-Just take them already! My arms are getting tired!”
Yuri nodded, and took the box from her. “Mind if I try one?”
Natsuki shrugged. “I-If you want…” She answered, looking back at Yuri.
Yuri picked up a cupcake, and tried it, being careful not to get any icing on her face.
“..Oh! This is really good!” Yuri said, cheerfully. “You’re really good at making these, Natsuki!”
Natsuki felt her face turn red, as she quickly looked away from Yuri, again.
“W-Well…! I mean….. I bet if you tried, you could make something like this too!” She blurted out, then instantly regretting saying that.
Yuri paused, then laughed. “Oh, I don’t think I could. …..Maybe you could show me sometime?”
“Wh-What?!”
“Nevermind~”
