Carlos was both intrigued and annoyed by Jinx's ability to both quiet down the group and command the group here he failed earlier. Regardless, he stepped forward, put on the most charismatic smile he could possibly muster and began to speak.

"My fellow students," he spoke, "My name is Carlos Ramirez. You may have heard of some of my family members coming for a special talk at your schools sometime, if your schools were lucky enough to get one of us, of course. I come from a family of motivational speakers and wish to become one myself."

He cleared his throat, "But enough about me. I can tell that each of you holds unbridled potential. Potential to both help us understand our current predicament and to shine brightly as the best of the best at this school. I respect that and did not expect otherwise."

With a sweep of his hands, and a reaffirming nod, he ended his miniature speech with, "If you have any qualms with me or any thoughts you just need to release from your developed minds, do not hesitate to speak with me."

Ryan rubbed the back of his neck, before clearing his throat. He moved his boots together with an audible click, puffed out his chest, and gave a salute to his fellow classmates.

"Name, Ryan Williams!" He exclaimed, "Top-ranking cadet at Coastal Military School! Blood type, A Positive! ...Er, or was it A Negative... Um..."

He shook his head, trying to get back on topic, "Son of Lieutenant Williams of the US Army! I will do my best to defend you as a soldier and to serve you as a companion! Uh... If you'll have me!" Taking an exaggerated exhale, Ryan went back to a resting position, listening for the others to introduce themselves.
