[ One does not simply stop being a scout. There are people who never actually were scouts, despite joining their regiment. Floch and some of his gang come to mind. It's not just a military division; it's a mindset. Even if Eren's had gotten twisted along the way, even if he was not as interested in exploration and discovery as some of them, a few of the key tenants were still somewhere deep in him; defeat the titans, achieve freedom. ]
[ He did defeat the titans, even, even if the cost was something the others could never agree with. ]
Better than never.
[ Why yes, Levi too had picked some fights with adults when he was that age. The first big one, well, he'd ended up ripping off some faces rather than attacking anyone with a stick, but close enough, right? (...right?) ]
Makes sense to be scared of something ten times your size, I suppose. But the air was always so much clearer outside. People who never breathed it had no idea of the stench they were living their lives in.
[ He doesn't disagree with that one of Eren's sentiments, at least. ]
