The real reason Jean beat Reiner up was actually ‘cus he was super jealous Reiner got to straddle Marco without homosexual connotations

When you meet the one That you've been waitin' for. And he’s everything that you want and more. You look at him and you finally start to live for some one else. And then you find yourself, That’s when you find yourself.

When we go through life, So sure of where we're headin'. And we wind up lost and it's The best thing that could have happened. ‘Cause sometimes when you lose your way, it's really just as well. Because you find yourself, Yeah that's when you find yourself.

my friend and i have an entire team of foxhole OCs and its so funny how clearly you can see our ravens bias bc the team captain is a huge riko fan and the Definately Not team captain is a jean fan, and their coach is a former raven
The St Felix Lynxes (we are not american and simply refused to go with a real school)
Tumblr media
(This isnt my art but they dont really have social media. They told me to link to their artfight- all art in this post is theirs)
The dynamic here is that 01 (Priore Marino) was the captain and then just. disappeared. So 05(Roman Denar) took over as captain and played the whole last year as captain - and their stuff is set in the fox timeline and theyre from the ravens old district so Denar is pretty excited about this next year because now that the ravens have switched, they have a chance to go further. He's excited for his second year as captain -- and on the first training session of the new year, Priore walks in, demands he strips so he can take his number back and humiliates him in front of everyone
Tumblr media
02 (Marco Bianchi) and 08 (Noah Baker) are Priore's backliner bodyguards essentially and make sure Denar does as he's told. Marco disappeared with Priore but Noah stayed (Priore went home to Italy but nobody is sure why. im also not sure why, these OCs are from 2020 and i cant seem to find any note of what he was doing. he did get top surgery while he was gone tho)
Tumblr media
Coach is really awful (Affectionate) because being trained in the nest does things to a guy. he's an alcoholic, hes a bastard and he wont let any of his players kill each other but only really stops priore when he makes denar late for practice
Coach was originally a lynx, got scouted into the ravens and did the rest of his collage career there, ended up too traumatised to want to go pro so went back to the lynxes as a coach Priore didn't get into Edgar Allen so came to St Felix because Coach used to be a raven, its the best he can get (priore idolises and resents the ravens)
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Some of the others Not including coach i think we ended up with 7 fleshed out players but we wanted them to be a team of 15 (i have other art of 'mine' but its old and i dont like it lmao)
as a team they have the shortest shorts in class 1 exy
We made it a point that Priore wasn't mafia bc we wanted to be slightly less edgy than the books. but there is art like this so idk if we succeeded in that
Tumblr media
Team lineup-- 01 - Priore Marino (Striker) (Italian) 02 - Marco Bianchi (Backliner) 05 - Roman Denar (Dealer) (Canadian) 06 - Timothee Yenisei (Backliner) 07 - Alik North (Striker) 08 - Noah Baker (Backliner) 13 - Misha LeBlanc (Goalie)
one day im going to write it and friend is going to illustrate like a light novel, and it will be the most self indulgent project ive worked on

just read on your meta on jean reiner marco. im sorry but u made it sound like jean has no personality or own morals if it wasnt for marco. marcos death wasnt the only thing that spur him into being good tho. he literally said he doesnt want to lose comrades after trost that includes marco and all the other comrades they lost because he didnt expect himself to care that much about them. i will argue that losing sasha has more of an impact to jean because simply, they know and work with each other longer. jean also acted on his own to lead the charge at trost without marco asking him to because jean already has leadership qualities on his own. marco didnt even respond favorably initially but funnily reiner did. marco was just one part of jeans character development. jean has so many other important moments that led him to become who he is later on. he also sees himself as a killer equivalent to the warriors because one death to jean is too many. plus dont forget he is complicit in bertolt being eaten by titan armin as well. i dont think he doesnt have the capability to not forgive reiner because if he doesn't, that will make him a big hypocrite.
Did you, though? Or were you just looking to confirm what a *certain* someone that has made downplaying Marco and what he meant to Jean an integral part of their *ship* had to say about it?
Even if that's not the case, I never said Marco is the reason Jean became good, what I actually said is that he was the first person that made Jean aware of the skills and qualities he already had at a critical moment in Jean's character arc. And bc of that, we could see the long lasting effects it had over his development. I never said that was the only important moment in his development, I was simply focusing on his relationship with Marco bc, yknow, they're my favorite characters? I even linked another Jean meta that analizes how he always has it in him to make the right, selfless decissions despite his major flaws.
You're not wrong in saying that one death to Jean is too many (that's why I said he'd be ooc if the deaths of his former comrades didn't burden him) but you're only focusing on the character's in-story intent while I was focusing on the author's intent. I'm not going to explain again why comparing Jean (& Connie) to the warriors is a false equivalence and Isayama's own writing doesn't support it; the author's intent is to force this idea to make a "war is bad" (not wrong) "both sides are equally bad" (extremely wrong) argument. This post explains why this is an erroneous idea. Not to mention that this is a fascist talking point that only helps the aggressors by sugarcoating broken, lazy morals with pacifism.
Also, I know that most fans like to pretend that the series started with the Marley arc, but that's not the case. There is a major context that separates Reiner's actions from Jean's actions. What Jean did during the clash with the yeagerists was necessitated by the alliance's haste to save whatever was left of the world. What Reiner did during the pre timeskip siege of the walls was motivated by hatred and genocide. Plain and simple. The difference is that Jean didn't have to commit unspeakable attrocities to realize his morals were broken. No, his morals were influenced by loss. Marco became an integral part of his moral compass bc once he lost him --to a fricking titan and without knowing what were his last moments, mind you, Levi too was traumatized after he's lost someone dear to him to a titan for the first time-- he better understood loss and just how much he wants to protect the lives of others. He chose to join the Scouts bc he understood what was the true meaning of all of that "dedicate your heart" fancy talking: preventing another senseless death, more excruciating pain, and giving hope where there is only despair.
There's also a big context when it comes to what happened before Bert's death, isn't there? You're oversimplifying two completely different situations to make a false equivalence. Personally, I hate oversimplifying things. Jean wouldn't be a hypocrite for being unable to forgive Reiner, he'd be more than justified. And who said Reiner should get over what happened to Bert? Ah right, I forgot that in the lore of a *certain* ship Reibert also gets downplayed.
I'm also having a very hard time understanding how does highlighting Jean's relationship with Marco translates as me saying that Jean didn't have any other meaningful relationships with other characters?
JSC is literally my favorite trio, and I hate the fact that the story didn't give us more insight on how much Sasha's death affected Jean and Connie. We see how much it ravaged the two of them after it happened (Connie's "soulmate" line still gets me) and after they saw her in the smoke, but we don't see any moment similar to Jean's monologue after Pieck got him out of Shiganshina (which was an obvious reference to the pyre scene), or when he saw Marco after Hange tried to convince him to join the alliance (and don't ignore the symbolism of only seeing Marco out of all the comrades he's lost along the way, which also includes Sasha). Her death must've been a major reason as to why Jean and Connie joined the alliance, but the story doesn't even imply it bc Isayama focused more on how much her death affected Eren and other characters instead (when he could and should've done both).
Don't get me wrong tho, I'm not trying to invalidate your opinion, I just don't really see the point in turning whose death had more of an impact on Jean into a competition. And I disagree with saying that more time spent with someone makes them more important (same with the idea that more screen time = a better character). Both Marco and Sasha were Jean's cherished friends, and I'd argue that losing them both affected him in different ways. The story, however, emphasizes more on how losing Marco affected him. Which is why I said Marco is Jean's most significant person and loss, bc Isayama wants us to remember that just as much as he wants us to remember his complicated friendship with Eren, as an example of another of his important relationships.

aot guys: boyfriend does your makeup challenge
reiner: knows what everything is because he loves standing in the doorway to watch you get ready any chance he gets. has also asked you questions about it before while sitting with you. he finds it so relaxing. reminds me of the guy in a video that FaceTimes his girl to talk about their days while she does her makeup. also actively pays attention to the brands and colors you prefer buying when you're out shopping together. but just cause he's watched you apply everything and technically knows the steps, he doesn't have the steadiest hand or smoothest application skills. gives it a valiant effort and it doesn't look half bad in the end!
jean: an artist so at least he gets color theory? lol But feels completely overwhelmed when presented with the task. Even if you aren't someone that has a bunch of things to choose from. Does have the common sense to read any labels to see what an item is for tho. So whether for eyes, lips, blush, etc. Takes soooo long with your eyeliner because he wants to try and do the winged eyeliner he's seen and wants it to be perfect. He's not used to such a tiny brush though, or the fact that skin moves and pulls with the pressure of the brush unlike canvas or paper. But he's a quick learner. In the end everything looks good! blended well and wings sharp enough to slice a titan! he's so proud when you tell him how well he did!
connie: taking this opportunity to experiment with a bunch of wild colors you'd never wear. doesn't care to look at what each thing is for. just chooses by color, texture, shinyness. claims he has some artistic direction/ theme he's being inspired by but is talkin straight out his ass. as soon as he's done and you get a look in the mirror 🤡🤡🤡... you are reaching for the makeup wipes cause WTF Connie?? He's laughing but swearing up and down he legit tried and thinks you look cool. 😒
marco: this sweetie!! I headcanon he grows up with older sisters and has watched them put on makeup before. therefore he knows pretty quick and easily what is used for what part of your face. knows a bunch of little tricks he's seen/heard his sisters talk about. Like using an index card edge or scotch tape to get a perfect wing. Or being sure to do the bottom lash mascara first so when you're opening your eyes wide the top lashes won't leave marks on your eyelids. best way to apply lashes. he knows so much! contouring and such is beyond his depth but he's got you dolled up ready for a date night on the town or photoshoot worthy in no time at all!
bertholdt: he's so nervous. when isn't he? lol he ends up choosing the minimal look to avoid messing up too badly. applies your eyeliner just to your top lid and gives the tiniest little baby wing from the corners. no eyeshadow. uses some blush on your cheeks that isn't a super bright or noticeable color cause he's scared to overdo it. bypasses the foundation and concealer. claims there's nothing about your face that needs to be concealed because you're so beautiful. surprisingly chooses a bold lip color though. he thinks it suits you. and turns bright red when he mentions liking when you leave lip prints on him but completely forgot this was all being recorded. he wants to curl into a ball and die of embarrassment but it's so cute!
porco: you think this is going to be a disaster. you're actually pretty surprised when he's picking up things and you're asking him what it is and he knows it exactly without having read the label. apparently he's paid closer attention to you getting ready than you getting ready than you ever thought. His hands are also steady as he holds your chin and gently turns your face to whatever angle he needs to apply your eye makeup. does take a long time though cause he's determined to make everything look perfect. he claims it's cause he doesn't want it to look sloppy and get roasted in any comments. it actually looks really good in the end, something you may have done yourself. but you tease that he's never allowed to complain about you taking a long time to get ready, ever again.

aot characters at uni headcanons :) (because i am miserable at uni and wanna romanticise things)
eren
how did this guy get to uni? i guess we’ll never know. i guess we’ll never know
if it’s zoom, he’s most definitely causing chaos
i’m talking spamming the chat for whatever reason
“haha funny meme”
pretending he’s frozen when the prof (levi) calls on him
“jaeger, i can still see you blinking.” “IM NOT BLINKING ITS JUST A GLITCH- oh- shi-“ *goes back to silence and ‘frozen’ state*
and if it’s in perso, he’s still causing chaos.
“PROFESSOR CAN I ASK A QUESTION?” “yes, you can.” “where’s joe?” “who’s joe?” “JOE MAMA!!!!!!!”  “10% off your first assessment.”
im wheezing
*corrects the spelling mistakes on the slides like the petty girlboss he is*
his major? probably something really really really vague
like
is there a bachelor of edginess?
no? okay well probably studying something in humanities / science
does he study?
lmaoooo…..do pigs fly?
but does he somehow get a perfect gpa?
yeah
cause hes the main character, duh
if you don’t count the 10% professor levi deducted because of the joe mama joke
i dont really have anything else to say about him
but i would hate to have him in my class
mikasa
you know that really well dressed, quiet girl that always catches your eye in your lectures?
ladies, bros, and non-binary hoes, may i introduce mikasa ackerman?
she picks her electives so they match up with eren’s 🥺 
and in those classes
hoooo boy
she’s basically a mum
or a dog mum
keeping eren on a leash, if you will
honestly i see her doing a liberal arts degree, with a major in literary studies (i headcanon her as a lit student im sorry ahh she just has that vibe)
like eren, she has a perfect/almost perfect grades
and that’s because she actually STUDIES
like i said, shes really quiet and reserved & basically talks to no one except eren
but damn is she a boy magnet
*cough* JEAN *splutter* 
armin
he’s most definitely a geography student. dont @ me. i dont take constructive criticism. nor do i take criticism in general.
he’s either the teacher’s pet or hated by the teacher because he keeps correcting them
there is no in between 
like mikasa, studies 24/7
unlike mikasa, either does realllly really well or really really bad
he’s a polarising figure okay
and maybe his results are cause he doodles in his textbooks half the time
it’s not even a textbook at this point it’s a fkn sketchbook (lmao my partner’s maths book in high school was filled with the most amazing intricate doodles and basically no maths but he somehow got high 80s so uh) but yeah thats how i see it
daydreamer :D
especially in grades
wears a cardigan
soft boi incarnate 
goes out of his way to help confused freshmen 
cause he’s wholesome like that
#welovearminclub
sasha
FOOD SCIENCE MAJOR I REPEAT FOOD SCIENCE MAJOR
“i study food. and by study, i mean eat.”
mediocre grades at best
im sorry T_T i love her but i can’t see her being bothered at uni
messes around with connie half the time
or tries to at least
poor connie is trying to study
she is that one kid who brings a whole ass meal into class and eats it very loudly
“okay so if we look at the chemical structure of ca-“ *slurp slurp, BITCH*
there are food stains all over her textbooks and the notes connie forced her to take
connie
okay but he had no idea what he wanted to do in uni
so he just did what sasha was doing
food science buddies :D
much to sasha’s chagrin, his grades are better than hers
because he’s actually STUDYING
and idk NOT EATING DURING CLASS
they aren’t perfect grades but they’re good
he’s pretty quiet in class
he’s just tryna pass
and control sasha
idk which one’s harder
i envy the man tho
jean
commerce. major. or smth to do with business
he is so goddamn cocky im sorry it drives me insane
well dressed rich boi vibes
to his credit, he studies really hard and his grades are really good :)
he chooses electives so that they measure up with marco’s :D
i dont have much to say about him
simps for mikasa and mikasa only
loyal frat boi ig???
marco
music major PLSSS
i see him either being the nerdy boy wearing sweaters that plays ukelele/ acoustic guitar on the stairs (surrounded by fangirls)
or the boy with the kazoo that won’t quit (still surround by fangirls cause who doesnt love a kazoo?)
or both :D
when he sees jean sadly listening to ‘glimpse of us’ while thinking about mikasa 
he decides to jump in w a little bit of musical zang. cause he’s supportive
please see https://www.youtube.com/shorts/g82qI-jdRw4 for reference
you won’t regret it
it isn’t a rick roll i promise
like armin, a vvv sweet boy
will help any of his classmates in need :D 
basically stuck to jean like glue
historia
she’s a double major of law and political science
we love a girlboss academic queen
QUEEN? did ya see what i did there???
cmonnn laugh
SUCH a model student and shes so helpful and sweet aaa
everyone loves her
its impossible to hate her
soft girl mixed w light academia aesthetic :D
she is an angel incarnate 
perfect grades perfect social life perfect everything 
also a perfect girlfriend
*stares pointedly at ymir*
ymir
studying criminology because it has similar units to law
and someone in particular is doing law
you catch my drift?
she really doesn’t wanna go to class but will go if historia is going
*historia*ns will say theyre just friends
but we all know better :D
she doesn’t talk to anyone unless its historia
and shes got such a resting bitch face that no one dares approach her
even the professor is scared to call on her
she gets mediocre grades, but they improve when historia forces her to study
hanji
hanji my beloved <333
she’s a professor
the crackhead professor everyone likes
probably chemistry / physics / human bio
something sciency
100% will use her students for her experiments
with consent ofc 
it’s the 21st century after all
veryyyyy disorganised
will 1000000% forget she had class 
turns up 15 minutes late and fuming at the lack of organisation
“WHO THE FUCK IS RUNNING THIS CLASS?” 
“you are, professor”
“oh.”
i love her sm
i hate all sciences but i would study it if she was teaching it
levi
you know shota aizawa from mha?
yeah
that. he’s that guy
he does not fucking want to be there
what does he teach? probably politics or something to do w humanities
he calls his students ‘brats’
but affectionately
right?????? RIGHT????
his dead eyes scares all of the students so much that no one dares say anything
even when he’s asking  them questions
all silent
except for eren
who he tells to shut up 24/7
“class is cancelled because i don’t want to be here. go home, brats.”
if you dare fail his class…just write your will okay?
erwin
10000% a history teacher aHHHH
(totally not biased because i love history)
he’s so passionate about what he does! 
he definitely does re-enactments of battles with help from his students
kinda like rengoku’s spin on a history teacher
is really enthusiastic! 
all of the students love him
some love him a lil toooo much
cmon, you see it too right?
takes students under his wing
just
a ball of sunshine
best professor ever
ahhhh it makes me so happy thinking about it
reiner
first, i would like to establish that we love reiner in this household
and if you don’t agree, LEAVE
seriously tho the guy needs a hug, therapy and cookies
i headcanon him as a humanities and psychology student!
he just wants to learn about the world and make it a better place okay ):
i could also see him as training to be a psychologist
the therapist-type of psychologist that is (clinical psychologist for all you fancy smartpants out there)
studies very very hard!
he throws himself into his work 100000%
all or nothing
speaking of which
he’s all about taking care of his education and his physical fitness too!
soft gymbro reiner
the nice gymbro that drinks respect women juice daily
yeah we stan him :D
probably really popular amongst the ladies and the gays but is too clueless to recognise it
annie
okay first, she’s definitely doing criminology
with the aim of going into the police force
(where i live, you have to do a degree in crim before working as a police - i think :D)
cmon she is canonically in the military police
there is no way she wouldn’t do it in uni
she never ever ever turns up to class
she just doesn’t like people okay
she would much rather be curled up in her dorm with her noise-cancelling headphones
doing her classes online
but if she’s on zoom
camera off, mike off
catch berty dragging her grumpy ass to exams
“ANNIE, YOU HAVE TO ATTEND EXAMS IN PERSON”
*camera cuts to annie who isn’t even planning to do exams at all*
she doesn’t study much
she’s really passive about uni and she doesn’t really care
but she does really well, she has a talent for crim :’)
girlboss incarnate
bertholdt
he is doing a very very very broad humanities degree
our aimless lil boi :’(
managed to do a few crim units to match with annie
( a simp)
always shows up to class
perfect attendance
10/10
but thats only because he hopes that annie will be there
which she never is
really quiet but sweet
mediocre to good grades but nothing out of the ordinary
he’s kinda the boy next door vibes
always wears the same blue sweater
pieck
mommy
mommy? i mean sorry mommy
sorry it just keeps slipping out
thats what she said 
aNYWAYS
she is a very homely and sweet honours student!
like reiner, probably a psych student
cottagecore aesthetic. i dont make the rules.
shes still a student but everyone thinks she’s a professor cause she’s so talented and smart and- adulty?
she has her life together, on the surface
but uh
yeahhhhhhh if you catch her in her natural habitat, her hair is all askew, notes are everywhere and shes crouched on all fours scribbling away at her work
porco
immediate rich daddy boy’s vibes im sorry
“MY FATHER SHALL HEAR ABOUT THIS!” - porco malfoy 2k22
most definitely studying humanities w/ a major in international law and political science
gee i sure hope he doesn’t run into reiner in the humanities building
THAT would make for some drama
and we don’t like drama in this household!
no, that isn’t popcorn in my hands you see
100% the chaddiest chad to ever chad at the university of chad
IM SORRY OKAY I DONT KNOW HOW TO FEEL ABOUT PORCO
TAKE THIS HEADCANON OR LEAVE IT
BECAUSE I SURE AINT TAKING CRITICISM
zeke
i wanna put a forewarning that i have a thing against zeke so proceed w warning
he just gives me bad vibes okay ;-;
he is that professor who wears a trench coat to every single class
even if it’s summer
black. trenchcoat.
his response to every criticism aimed at him? “no bitches?”
i cant fault him for that
like i said, he’s a professor
of political science probs
very very charismatic
the classes he teachers are like a cult fr
they really realllly admire him
alot
like alot alot
okay i think that’s all i can do :’) cause the only other marley person i know well enough to headcanon is colt and im still sad about how he died :(

reincarnation AU related ask; preferably a modern AU, college age (don't have to be in college tho), maybe a recovering/sober Marco or Jean, definitely have one of them break up with the other because "I'm not good enough for you" but clearly they can't stay away from each other, 100% friends to lovers BUT PLEASE DONT LET IT BE TOO LONG UNTIL THEY KISS/GET TOGETHER I rather the angst be after they actually get together and navigate the relationship and so forth :] tbh angst prior to them getting together IS TOO OVERDONE
Okay okAY! Hi oh my gosh this was awesome, thank you! Super inspiring, so many ideas ☺️
Eee this was so fun to write, everyone send more!
Anon you’ve seasoned my brain broth of ideas and I loved writing these out for ya, inbox definitely staying wide open for any more ideas people may have (doesn’t even have to be about a reincarnation au!)
Okay yay! Here’s what I got, all under the cut:
Marco wouldn’t ever break things off with Jean, he’s too aware of the fact that it would hurt Jean. I also like to think that despite slightly underestimating himself, Marco is fairly secure in his self-image (he’s worked hard to get to this place).
Jean on the other hand… well he’s got some issues and tends to gaslight himself into thinking he’s 1) not good enough, 2) bad for Marco, and 3) better off letting Marco enjoy his college experience without being bogged down by the delinquent that’s been suspended twice for fighting Eren.
Perhaps he gets pulled up before a disciplinary board after a particularly rough fight with Eren goes wrong and they end up breaking a college statue or something similar. Maybe Marco (the kid with a squeaky clean record and stellar grades who works so hard to maintain a full-ride scholarship so there’s money left for his younger siblings to get the best opportunities) is also pulled into the meeting by proxy. (He was probably the one who pulled Jean away from the scuffle and got lumped in).
The stress the entire situation would cause Marco, the anxiety, the shame - all of it is stuff Jean is used to, but not Marco.
Instead of helping him through it, Jean freezes up and realises “I did this to him. I’m the cause of what Marco is having to face. I can’t put him through this, it’s not fair.”
He pulls back, suddenly and heartbreakingly (for Marco).
Jean is stubborn, but he can also be selfish. He doesn’t cope well with extended periods of ‘avoid Marco at all costs.’ So, his idea is to break off the odd-romantic-chemistry-thing they had, and limit themselves to friends.
They work their way up. Jean still keeps Marco at arms-length. He shuts down the uh… less than platonic feelings he definitely still holds for the other boy.
Jean still keeps him company while he studies, they still make flashcards together, and he still relentlessly insists on Marco taking breaks and keeping healthy. They still find the same seats next to each other at lunch, they still find themselves circling back to each other at every new corner and situation, as though hopelessly magnetised despite everything else.
Marco is Jean’s constant. He’s always there. But Jean keeps up the desperate “just friends” charade for a few weeks, or a couple months at most.
Marco is smart enough to know that it’s less about them as a couple and more about Jean’s own web of insecurities that holds him back. He gives Jean as much time as he needs. As long as they’re still in each other’s lives, he’s happy and won’t push for more until Jean is ready.
It’s the rest of the group that stir things up.
After a while it becomes evident that half of them don’t even know Marco and Jean have broken up.
Eren, Reiner, Historia, Mikasa, and Annie are either oblivious or indifferent to any minute changes noticed between the two of them.
While Ymir, Connie, and Sasha actively berate Jean about it. They poke fun and (in their own way) help him realise he’s being cowardly by burying his head in the sand.
Armin and Bertholdt are open and honest in a raw, vulnerable way that pushes Jean to a precipice of realisation.
He isn’t doing this because he lost faith in the relationship. He’s doing this because he’s painfully aware of his own flaws, and he’s terrified of the part they’ll play in the unknown progression of his first serious relationship.
In light of this, things change again.
Marco and Jean are together, properly this time. Nobody’s foot is hovering out the door.
Jean is hesitant, sure, but Marco’s understanding in the face of everything Jean did has strengthened his ability to trust that he can actually lean on Marco when he doesn’t feel like he’s enough.
It’s odd really. Jean seeking support from the one person who he feels he isn’t good enough for.
It’s messy, it’s patchwork, it’s a jumble of feelings and insecurities, but it’s them. It’s what they are.
Jean is a wobbly rock in a stream of college stress and Marco is the moss that keeps him lodged in place, despite the ever-changing current.
And the current definitely comes.
You pick it, there are a world of options.
An accident on campus? A near-fatal injury that leaves someone (probably Marco) hurt, suffering, and (as anon mentioned) in need of recovery and sobriety? Family problems? Interpersonal conflicts? Lost scholarships? Failing classes?
Perhaps the sudden appearance of unexplainably vivid dreams of small towns, unmeasurable walls, large, genderless titan that leave blood, bodies, and lost soulmates in their wake?
So many possibilities, but throughout them all (as long as everyone remains alive) the two of them have each other.

anyway wouldn't it be cute/cool/funny if cour 1 was the last nine chapters and cour 2 was anime exclusive epilogue content? nothing groundbreaking here's my bulleted list
- levi visiting hange and erwins graves
- connie reuniting with his mom
- a wedding??? literally don't care whos (falco and gabi or maybe annie and armin would be best tho)
- reiner and annie getting knighted by historia now that they're saviors of humanity too
- zeke playing catch with grisha in the paths
- jean working with the people of trost to build a memorial to his fallen comrades ((and if it happens to resemble marco oops I guess?))
- onyankopon finally getting to see his family/return home
Obvi keep all the mikasa growing old stuff but like?? We've got extra episodes to tell these stories so maybe mappa should go out on a limb and tell them

my ops on ships!!
eremika - my otp. my everything. it’s been two years and i still fucking cry over them. it’s to the point i see a field and i tear up. the dynamic that eren loves her more than everything and more than mikasa loves him. still mad at mappa for not animating them holding HANDS. i’m gonna kms when the end gets animated /j
aruani - THEYRE SO CUTIEJAJDJJSR i cant they’re literally so cute i love them and they’re dynamic and how armin fell for her and always visited her. HES SO DESPERATE FOR HER GODDDDD.
eruri - my other otp. there is absolutely no way they didn’t have a secret relationship going on. levi was always by erwin and even told him he’d follow him to hell. just like mikasa loved eren and protected him, levi did the same for erwin. THEY WERE LITERALLY ROOMMATES AND THEY DID EVERYTHING TOGETHER. levi trying everything in his power to stop erwin from doing the mission and wanting to immediately revive erwin. ENMIES TO LVRS IS MY FAV TROPE!! and their size difference is so cute GOD i can do a whole analysis.
yumihisu - MY BABIESSSS. the first aot ship i ever loved. they r literally gfs and in love. ever since ymir died historia was never happy. she doesn’t even love her husband. they were everything. i was a mess when ymir died.
jearmin - THEYVE LITERALLY HAD SO MANY INTERACTIONS. jean always has his arm around armin in some way. and they are always like touching in public it’s so cute.. and their size difference is adorable too. i’m a sucker for it.
levihan - i don’t ship them, i see levi as mlm and i cant rlly see hange w anyone. they are platonic soulmates to me tho!!
eremin - i def respect it, I just don’t rlly ship it. But I understand why people do, they’re rlly touchy w eachother. i’ll def write for it tho!!!!
reibert - i cant see it 😭😭 (will write for them tho)
jeanmarco - they were cute, it’s kinda meh tho marco was kind of a background character tho, i didnt rlly care when he died
ereri - absolutely not. you disgust me if i ship this. idk why this ship was and is popular. eren and levi have a father son relationship. will most definitely not write for this ship!!! i hate pedophiles!!
erehisu - no no no no no absolutely not stfu if you ship HISTORIA IS LESBIAN!!!!! it genuinely makes me physically ill whenever this ship is mentioned i hate it so much.
jeankasa - at first i didn’t like them at all, but they’re def an after war ship for me. i can see them together after the war, and i don’t have problem with it at all. during war i don’t ship it tho cuz it was heavily one sided
zevi - be so fr, (crackship tho)
flojean - anyone with floch is a crime
levi and petra idk their ship name - daughter/father relationship. she looks up to him like eren looks up to him. levi is mlm in my eyes.
sasha and connie - absolutely no for romantic but they are most definitely twins. they break my heart sm. connie loved her sm and def feels like half of him is missing :(
conkasa - crackship funny asf
mikannie - UGHHHH TOXIC GFS!!!!!!!!!!!!! wish they ended up together after war
sasha x niccolò - their dynamic is so cute. niccolò getting flustered over sasha is adorbs to. connie def hyped them up and if they got married, he’d be flower boy.
gabi x falco - CHILD LOVERS SO ADORABLE. MY BABIES. they both protect eachother i love them
reiner x historia - be SOOOO fr..
jean x pieck - where did this even come from
eren x annie - where did this even come from

Another Funky AI FanFic
All characters and scenarios are randomized
All writing is completed by an AI program
Characters: Reiner Braun & Jean Kirstein
Me doing this really helps me find different ships that I didn’t think existed
Im so excited for the next part for AoT tho
Reiner can do whatever he wants to me
Scenario: Late Night Walk before the rumbling
Moonlit Confessions
They walked side by side, the only sounds being the gentle rustling of leaves and the distant howl of the wind. The moon's silver glow illuminated their faces, casting long shadows that danced with every step they took.
"Can you believe we're here?" Jean finally broke the silence, his voice tinged with a mix of awe and bitterness. "After everything we've been through, we're still fighting for survival."
Reiner glanced at him, his expression a mixture of exhaustion and determination. "Yeah, it's hard to wrap my head around sometimes. But we have to keep going, Jean. We owe it to everyone who's fought and died."
Jean's gaze hardened, and he turned to face Reiner, his frustration evident in his voice. "Speaking of those who died... Marco. You were there, Reiner. You saw what happened, and you didn't do anything to stop it. He died because of you."
Reiner's eyes dropped to the ground, a heavy sigh escaping his lips. He had carried the guilt of Marco's death for years, the memory of that fateful night haunting him relentlessly. "I know, Jean. I can never make up for what I did, or for what I didn't do. It's a burden I'll carry for the rest of my life."
Jean's anger began to waver as he looked at Reiner's pained expression. He knew firsthand the weight of guilt and regret, and the bitterness in his heart started to melt away.
They continued walking in silence for a while longer before Reiner finally stopped, his gaze fixed on the moon above. "Jean, there's something I need to tell you."
Jean turned to him, curiosity and surprise in his eyes. "What is it?"
Reiner took a deep breath, his voice steady but filled with vulnerability. "I've kept this hidden for so long, but I can't hold it back any longer. Jean, I... I care about you more than I ever realized. Through all the battles, the pain, and the mistakes, you've been a constant in my life. You challenge me, you make me question things, and you've shown me what it means to be truly strong."
Jean's gaze softened, his heart beginning to race as he processed Reiner's confession. "Reiner..."
"I know I don't deserve forgiveness," Reiner continued, his eyes never leaving Jean's. "But I want you to know that my feelings for you are genuine. I don't expect you to forgive me for what I've done, but I needed you to know the truth."
Tears welled up in Jean's eyes as he reached out to place a hand on Reiner's arm. "Reiner, I... I don't know what to say."
Reiner's lips curled into a small, sad smile. "You don't have to say anything, Jean. I just needed you to know."
They stood there, bathed in the moonlight, their emotions swirling between them like a gentle breeze. The weight of their pasts, their regrets, and their unspoken feelings hung in the air, creating a bond that transcended their roles as soldiers.
As the night grew darker, they turned their gaze toward the walls, a shared determination burning in their eyes. Together, they would face whatever challenges lay ahead, finding strength in their newfound connection and the hope for a better future.
And in that quiet moment, beneath the watchful eyes of the moon, Reiner and Jean found solace in each other's company, ready to continue their fight with renewed purpose and a heart-to-heart that had been a long time coming.
