    Summary

    After the war, Katara loses herself in the rhythms of tribal life. In the South Pole the moon is sovereign. Deep in the ice and snow, in the heart of her element, it is easy to forget that there is a land of fire and smoke and ash. The kingdom of the sun. Of dragons. Her journey with the Avatar slips into memory. A strange past life, shadowy and ephemeral.

    But some things do not stay consigned to twilight, nor to history.

    She is 20 years old when she sees him again.

    Summary

    "I think about you," he said. "More than is appropriate."

    The city continued its business around them, indifferent. She could hear a distant tram, a restaurant's spillage of laughter. The magnolia tree dropped a petal onto the stone between her knee and his.

    "For how long," she said.

    "Longer than I've allowed myself to think about it clearly."

    Summary

    You and Levi have a truce: when sharing Erwin’s bed, (almost) anything goes. You both want him too much to let your years-long feud stop you.

    But after reclaiming Shiganshina, you have to decide: how do you two keep going without your fulcrum? Is there anything left between you—and were you the only one keeping your true feelings secret? Caught up in memories and grief, it becomes clear that the only way to move forward is to do it together.

    (from the serum to the sea, and everything that came before.)

    Summary

    Achilles, the sun casting its last rays around his head like a halo, resplendent and aureate.

    Achilles, the soles of his feet flashing pink as he sprints across the beach.

    Achilles, slender fingers plucking the strings of his lyre, eyes green like fresh pressed olives. His cat's smile.

    "Guess what I'm thinking about," he says.

    The robin that flew over our heads but a minute past. The dream he had last night of a ship with purple sails, its prow slicing the waves of the Aegean sea. The wooden amulet that hangs about the augur's neck. This and this and this.

    "I'll be the first hero to be happy," he would tell me years later. "You're the reason."

     

    A collection of all the scenes we didn't get to see in The Song of Achilles. Follows the timeline of the book.
