    Summary

    Twelve years ago, Levi Ackerman made the hardest decision of his life—he left behind the only woman he ever loved, believing it was for her own good. But fate is cruel, and when a fiery redheaded boy with a familiar scowl crosses his path, Levi is forced to confront the past he abandoned. The truth he never knew. And the woman whose heart he shattered.

    Summary

    Levi and Hange meet by chance as kids.
    Or maybe… not by chance at all.
    I wanted to imagine their backstories crossing over (especially Hange’s), and how they might have become friends even before joining the Survey Corps.
    As always, your thoughts are most welcome!

    IMPORTANT NOTES TO THE STORY:
    -English is not my first language, so if you spot any errors, please don’t hesitate to tell me.
    -I refer to Hange as “she”: first, because as a kid I don’t know what her/their own sense of gender might have been; second, simply for grammatical practicality.
    There is absolutely no judgment or opinion behind this choice.

    This work is dedicated to @supersimplestuff, my wonderful person, my soul architect that inspired this story.
    To the unexpected encounters that mark a before and an after.
    To curious kids, and to that fresh curiosity that survives into adulthood; to the courage of always asking questions, of wanting to know, to explore.
    Well, now I'll stop being sentimental.

    Summary

    The line “I was popular enough” always sounded like loss to me. After the Rumbling, Levi’s strength and certainty are gone — what’s left feels like numbness. This is him remembering the one time he let someone close, back when he was a teenager working security in a brothel as hired muscle. In my head, it makes sense that some of the people who knew his mother would’ve helped him find work there.

    Summary

    Levi knows the new server at Paradis, Eren Jaeger, is trouble from the moment he sets eyes on him. He swears to Hange that he's going to keep his distance, but when his best friend drags him out for a night of drinking after work, he can't seem to resist Eren's charm. One drink leads to the next, and before Levi knows it, Eren's coming home with him, messing up his well crafted routine by sleeping over. And even though Levi knows messing around with Eren isn't a good idea, knows it will be bad for him and his routine, he agrees to a friends with benefits relationship, anyway. Which definitely won't lead to trouble.

    Summary

    Erwin leaves him feelin’ off-center. Leaves him feelin’ small and wretched, like he really ain’t nothin’ more than a petty, stupid criminal. In the face of Erwin’s far-reaching gaze, lookin’ off someplace Levi can’t even begin to imagine, let alone see. He feels the weight of his own insignificance, standing next to this man. The meaningless struggle of his own, poor existence.

    //

    Newly forced into recruitment in the Survey Corps, and having lost his family in Furlan and Isabel, Levi struggles to find his place among a world entirely unlike the one he comes from, and around people he can find little in common with.

    Summary

    There were many things he didn’t understand about Hange Zoë. The way she dressed and behaved like a man, her eccentric nature, her fearlessness, and the cruel monster hidden underneath her kind demeanor. Maybe it was the sum of all these confusing thoughts that made him plant a kiss on her lips that night in the tent. And so it began, Levi Ackerman and Hange Zoë's struggle to understand what was that thing drawing them closer.

    Summary

    Erwin will be the next commander in a very short time; Levi has lost everything that mattered to him. Their lives are changing; they are heading together toward that landscape painted with mysteries that is on the other side of the walls. The problem will arise when those changes, by reviving old memories, make their minds tortured by past, guilt and fear waver in front of the uncertain. Perhaps, what they need to move forward is to know they can trust someone else.
    What they don't know is that, in order to build that trust, they will need to undress themselves body and soul before the other, doing so to face the unexpected chain of events that will turn their expectations and dreams upside down.
    Because only a living heart can fully feel the freedom that awaits them at the end of the battle.

    ***

    Eruri, Pre-SNK, Post-ACWNR. A story about how the bond of trust, respect, admiration and devotion between Erwin and Levi was born during the war against titans.

    Summary

    Erwin será el próximo comandante dentro de muy poco tiempo; Levi ha perdido todo lo que le importaba. Sus vidas están cambiando, se dirigen juntas hacia aquel paisaje pintado con misterios que está al otro lado de las murallas. El problema surgirá cuando esos cambios, al revivir viejos recuerdos, hagan que sus mentes atormentadas por el pasado, la culpa y el miedo vacilen ante lo incierto. Quizá, lo que necesitan para seguir adelante es saber que pueden confiar en alguien más.
    Lo que no saben es que, para forjar esa confianza, necesitarán desnudarse en cuerpo y alma ante el otro, hacerlo para así afrontar la inesperada cadena de sucesos que darán un giro a sus expectativas y sueños.
    Porque solo un corazón vivo puede sentir en plenitud la libertad que los espera al final de la batalla.

    Summary

    "Levi stared at the letter in his hand, completely shaken. His mother was alive. His mother was alive! All these years Kenny had let him believe that she was dead, but she was alive! She wanted to see him! He couldn't believe it, he immediately sat down to pen a response."

    I hate you for what you did, and I miss you like a little kid.

    Summary

    Eren had followed Levi into hell before. They’d come back with too many scars. Where Eren was going, there was no coming back from. He was a ship doomed to crash upon the rocks. He wouldn’t forgive himself if he drug Levi down with him. Despite the older man’s protests, he was too good a man to do that to.

    Summary

    Levi couldn’t help but leer at the beautiful doe. His long tan legs and round behind almost triggered a pre-rut the first time Levi saw him prance around the forest. After all, the skirt woven from foliage left little to the imagination.a cropped sleeveless top to match the olive green bottoms, the fabric looked luxurious and soft.
    If his body wasn’t a dead give away for the boys dynamic, his scent absolutely was. Levi finds himself yearning for the smell of fresh strawberries, lemongrass and bergamot. The sweet and earthy smells drives Levi’s alpha mad, so much so he must make the omega his.
    Levi’s aware of his less than friendly looks, grey and black fur matted with blood and dirt. His ears pointed and scarred compared to the deers soft and floppy ones. He can only hope the omega doesn’t turn his cotton tail and run at the sight of the burly Wolf.

    Summary

    “ Absolutely not.” Levi declared. He crossed his arms.

    “Levi, I’m not asking. The Military Police need our help apprehending thieves in The Underground. Your expertise is essential in taking them down.” Erwin’s gaze was level. Even though Levi was standing and he was sitting, he was only slightly lower than the captain, and his icy blue eyes pierced Levi in a way that they rarely did. The dark haired man could tell his commander was serious.”

    Levi returns to the underground on a mission. Shit goes down

    Summary

    “I used to drink. Back- before…” Levi slurred, like he was going to finish his sentence, but trailed off.

    “Before what?” Asked Eren. Jean jabbed him in the side. “Don’t ask about the Captain’s past! It’s rude!” He hissed.

    “Before I was a Scout.” Levi blurted, turning and looking right at Jean.

    Eren’s eyes lit up. He knew Levi was secretive about his past, but the alcohol seemed to loosen him up to a point where he might let some things slip. He wanted to learn more, ask more questions. Plus, he wanted to rub it in Jean’s face.”

    Levi gets drunk and tells his squad about his past.

    Summary

    "How'm I supposed to help them like this?" Your muffled voice punches right through Levi's chest.

    He realises he doesn't have an answer for you. Only that he knows what it's like to feel helpless to be of use to the people you love. He remembers that grey sky, swollen with rain that came lashing down in icy sheets. He remembers blood in the earth, and that great evil bastard of a titan - and Isabel's eyes, sprinkled with a reflection she couldn't see, staring up at him, asking 'Where? Where were you?'
