    Summary

    It’s been a long time since the days when Lucy used to sit at the end of his piano and interrupt his playing—in fact, it’s been a long time since Schroeder’s seen her at all. But when they end up living in the same city after college, he starts seeing his old friend in a new light.

    Summary

    He watched the city skyline get farther and farther away. Neon advertisements painted the river in streaks of pink and blue, their reflections rippling across the water. A massive holo ad for The Commoner, flickered like it knew he was watching, the familiar slogan looping endlessly, “Everyone can become a hero.”

    Lin Ling leaned against the panel, bag of convenience store snacks dangling from his fingers. “You don’t have anything to do tomorrow, right?”

    “No. Why?” Nice glanced at him, suspicious.

    “Wanna get high?” Lin Ling asked suddenly, breaking the silence.

    His first thought was smoking. Gross. Ash. Tar. Cancer. Filth filling his lungs. Then Lin Ling tipped his hand, flashing the small, wrinkled plastic bag he’d confiscated earlier.

    Nice’s chest tightened. “You’re kidding,” he said.

    Lin Ling’s grin widened. “Do I look like I’m kidding?”

    Summary

    “Wait,” Nice murmurs, out of reflex.

    But Lin Ling doesn’t. He keeps going, pressing harder into Nice’s lap, chasing friction and heat. His shirt is still on, buttons half undone and clinging to one shoulder, and Nice feels the frustration rise, the need to pause, to strip properly, to fold things the right way, and then Lin Ling grabs his hand and drags it under his shirt, over his chest, over the quick, uneven thump of his heart, and says in a breathless murmur, “Touch me here. Like you mean it.”

    Nice’s world narrows to the skin under his palm. Hot. Bare. Imperfect.

    So he touches.

    Summary

    A costume was a man’s story. Not the man himself. If only someone would tell the guy hovering at Lin Ling’s side that.

    Summary

    It happens like this: he’s sprinting through the streets of Marley, past the astonished eyes of the people whose lives he’s torn asunder, past the children darting through the streets like they did so long ago in Shiganshina, past the weight of the sins he bears, her small hands in his.

    They run and run and run, hand-in-hand, and for a moment, the world warps to back when they were nine years old. He grabs her hand. Wraps a red scarf around her neck. And as it flaps in the wind, the ribbon tying their fates together, he leads her home.

    Anywhere is fine. As long as it’s away from here.


    Eren, Mikasa, and waking from a long dream.
