you're in the survey corps, I don't know what you expected.

Likewise, there would never be another he'd come to trust more than Eren, but if drifting at its core is a pure, unadulterated mental compatibility, it would take a lot more than trust for them to see eye to eye in one another's heads. It'd be an uphill struggle for anyone, really. And even if their thought processes are completely perpendicular, the one thing Armin has over anyone else is understanding.

Eren's response being a textbook case in point. Of course he's frustrated with the questions at face value. They're simple and pointless, easy to brush off and think too hard on simultaneously, and for the most part, totally unrelated to the reason they're sitting here.

"I'd say it's less about us feeling the same about colors and more about how we answer the question. I don't know the criteria, but presumably similar thought processes are a sign of drift compatibility. Simple things are often the most telling."

That said, there's a beat while he considers the question for himself.

"I'm not too fond of red, myself."
