Chapter 1 of my Kubokai University AU fic is out now on Ao3!

Read 'Beyond the Boundary' Chapter 1: First Encounters here! :)

As I've explained on the notes, I'm not sure on my writing schedule, however I have just finished my second year at uni so I have more free time to write!! However, I've not written in a while, so I apologise if this first chapter is a bit janky eek!

Enjoy <333

I genuinely don't know how to use this site hut since it's the only place where the Kubokai fandom seems to be even just slightly alive then I'm gonna learn.

#we’re alive and thriving (kind of)!!!!!!

Guys... how would we feel.... if my fic included.... a chatroom....

(I wouldn't write an entire chapter in chat fic style- just parts of it every now and then😭)

I can't lie, my guilty pleasure is reading chat fics because they're FUN and SILLY! But I know they aren't always popular, so please be honest-

If the answers are mostly negative, I won't include it because I still want the fic to be enjoyable for people!! Even though this is kinda self indulgent because I have had this fic idea for a while and have been wanting to write it for a long time, so really, I can do/write whatever I want but I would like other people to enjoy what I'm writing too haha

I apologise for the amount of polls I've been putting out recently btw lmfao

I have planned out the kubokai uni fic and have written about half of chapter 1! (I’m planning on this fic being roughly 10 chapters, maybe 11 depending on how long the chapters are)

So now I’m just trying to figure out the specifics (e.g. which courses each character would be taking!)

So far I’ve figured out:

Kaidou - illustration (I headcanon that he’d wanna be a manga artist!)

Kuboyasu - engineering (I think he’d wanna build his own motorbikes, and maybe even become a design tech teacher)

Toritsuka - psychology (obviously, but also because it’s a popular course for women, so-)

Aiura - psychology too <3 (it just felt fitting for her hehe)

Hairo - sport and exercise studies (he would def wanna be a personal trainer or a PE teacher)

Mera - business (girlboss who also needs money)

Saiko - business too (bc his father owns a bunch of companies)

I still need to work out which courses Saiki, Teruhashi, Nendou and Yumehara would be taking! So if you have any suggestions I would love to hear them! :) <3 tysm!

Idk if anyone will care because this is very niche BUT

Here is my interpretation of "Foreign Language" by Nothing But Thieves from a Jearmin POV <3

If you have any alternative interpretations, I would love to hear them!!! (Plus if there are any other AoT fans who love NBT I would be so happy lmfaooo)

DISCLAIMER: This is all just my own thoughts and headcanons, a lot of the analysis I have isn't necessarily keeping to the canon story, and has a lot of assumptions based on things we don't see in the anime/read in the manga! It's all silly fun because I love Jearmin, and I feel like this song fits them :) <3

Sometimes I don't understand you Same road, just different direction Same note, but different vibration I've gotta admit, you're not all it seems You've got planets in your eyes Guess it's not my thing But you make it look alright

From the perspective of Jean

“Same road, different direction / Same note, different vibration” -> Jean and Armin work really well together as co-leaders of the Paradis team during season 4. But sometimes Armin says/does things that Jean doesn’t understand/agree with at first, but he trusts Armin enough to go along with it. This could also be interpreted as the fact that Jean and Armin were originally meant to be one character, but Isayama decided to separate the personalities into two separate characters. So whilst they are in sync a lot of the time, there will be moments where they differ from each other.

“I’ve gotta admit, you’re not all it seems” -> Armin is stereotyped as the weakest link, and is treated like an underdog (he himself has very little confidence in himself), he’s not physically strong, but he proves that his intelligence and ability to come up with good plans is incredibly useful. And Jean misjudges him at first.

“You’ve got planets in your eyes” -> Armin’s ambition and dream to see the ocean. The childlike wonder and fascination, he can’t just stay behind the walls forever. He is his parents’ son, after all.

“Guess it’s not my thing / But you make it look alright” -> Jean doesn’t have the same fascination as Armin does. He only became a scout to make a difference, to help people and further humanity, not necessarily to explore outside the walls. However, seeing Armin’s absolute bliss when they reach the ocean makes Jean much more interested in the world outside the walls.

And I know that we've been so tired lately Want a change and like those movies from the old days You've been making us watch Well, it's a foreign language to me, baby But I love hearing you talk

“And I know that we’ve been so tired lately” -> In season 4, the Paradis squad have been too busy trying to stop the Rumbling and everyone is exhausted. Jean and Armin haven’t had a chance to talk about their relationship?

“Well, it’s a foreign language to me, baby / But I love hearing you talk” -> Reiterates that Jean and Armin don’t always understand one another, but Jean loves hearing Armin talking about whatever it is - whether it’s his theories (like when they were talking about the female titan in season 1), his dreams (seeing the ocean), or leading the scouts like a true commander. ("Foreign language" is also a reference to a previous lyric "those movies from the old days you've been making us watch", and also a later lyric, which mentions an Italian film which is *obviously* in Italian, and therefore, a foreign language)

I'm intoxicated by you Day drunk, hit the double feature A "life sucks then you die" t-shirt And a stolen kiss That's not all you need I've seen the look in your eye L'Avventura dream (L'Avventura dream) I hear it call you in the night

“I’m intoxicated by you” -> Reference to when they were drinking with the refugees. Armin and Jean spent a lot of time together in Marley during their undercover mission, and this moment in the tent is symbolic of their evolving relationship. Jean’s initial impression of Armin was that he found his friendship/obsession with Eren creepy, but now Jean and Armin have a closer bond than ever before.

"A "life sucks then you die" t-shirt -> Jean is a pessimist, and has a dry sense of humour. Armin isn't, he's just tired of his current life.

"And a stolen kiss / That's not all you need" -> a reference to the film mentioned on the next line. Maybe Jean and Armin's relationship starts out as a kiss that was an 'in the moment' type of kiss, maybe after a near death experience? Armin isn't that kind of person, he can't just kiss someone for the hell of it. It has to mean something. And maybe Jean also realises that when he kissed Armin, it wasn't just an adrenaline-led moment, but it had deeper undertones to it.

“L’Avventura dream (L’Avventura dream)” -> this references an Italian film from the 1960s (‘L’Avventura’, or ‘The Adventure’), and is described as a film where events happen with very little explanation or signals. This idea that things just happen and you should just go with the flow. This could relate to Jean and Armin’s relationship, as there’s no big gesture that shows a shift in their relationship. One day they were just a lot closer than before. This theme of “going with the flow” could also be a call for spontaneity, doing things just because. Living through a war could make someone want to do something they wouldn’t normally do, because they don’t know if they’ll live through it. For example, Jean and Armin getting together?

[Chorus repeated x2] And I know that we've been so tired lately And I know that you've been looking for a new way to, to make the world stop Well, it's a foreign language to me, baby But I love hearing you talk

“And I know that you've been looking for a new way to, to make the world stop” -> Throughout season 4, Armin didn’t want to resort to violence to stop Eren and the Rumbling - he was sick of the fighting and bloodshed. He wanted to talk to Eren and sort things out peacefully. Jean (and the other Paradis members) wanted the same, but deep down, they all knew that they wouldn’t be able to get through to Eren. Jean just had sympathy for Armin and his useless hope.

Essentially, this song talks mostly about their relationship throughout season 4, and the shift from small moments they have together pre-season 4, to their relationship (/friendship, you can interpret this however you want, I suppose!) being more focal and obvious to the audience.

I had so much fun doing this analysis, and I have a couple of songs in mind for other ships (currently have 2 contenders for Eremin..👀) so if you liked my analysis, feel free to suggest other ships/songs that you’d like me to interpret for aot ships!! :)

(I probably won’t analyse for Eremika or Aruani, because I’m not a huge fan of those ships- but anything else lemme hear them!!)
