Summary
"'Commander. A moment?'
Aloy looked up from her desk to see Kotallo lingering like a spectre in the doorway. His arm was held behind his back, his posture stiff, and his expression seemed almost nervous, an odd look for the normally unflappable Tenakth warrior.
'You don't have to ask, you know that,' she said, swiveling her chair around to fully face him. 'Something on your mind?'
'I… Much, yes.' He stepped inside awkwardly, angling his body to keep her from seeing whatever was clutched in his hand. 'In my efforts to further my knowledge of the Old Ones, I came across fragmented records of a… festival, of sorts. It was held by some of their warrior clans, in remembrance of a conflict called the Battle of Valentine.'
'Battle of Valentine? Sounds interesting, and also right up your alley.'
'Indeed. According to GAIA, this 'Valentine's Day' was observed annually on the fourteenth of February. And…' He shifted his weight from his left foot to his right, the unpainted skin at the base of his neck and the bottoms of his ears pinkening slightly. 'Seeing as today is the fourteenth of February, I thought we might experience it together.'"
A fluffy fic to celebrate Valentine's Day, Kotaloy style.

Summary
France, 1986 - The last time Erwin was in Paris, he had it all. Youth, love, success, and his place in some of the most prestigious orchestras of the world. His cello had been his faithful companion through it all, and many said Erwin was the most talented cellist of his time. With such a bright future, it was easy to pretend everything was perfect.
But a lot had changed in ten years.
Now, all he had left were ghosts in his shadows, blurred memories of what used to be, and a body broken beyond repair.
He hoped going back to where it all started would be enough to recover what he’d lost: his ability to hold a cello, to feel, to love. He’d been wrong so far. But there may be another soul just as broken as his, someone who was also wandering in search of their own missing pieces.

Summary
Something is very wrong in Paradis, a place where dead things linger and nothing is as it seems.
When Erwin arrives in the quiet countryside town, longing to leave his past behind, he only has one goal: To uncover the mystery surrounding the infamous Magnolias, a family haunted by death and tragedy, and possibly more sinister things. During his investigations into the supernatural, he encounters Levi, a local with a grudge against tourists, who knows more than he lets on and seems to be running from his very own ghosts.
As Erwin gets closer to Levi and begins to uncover the twisted history of the long empty Magnolia Mansion, strange things start happening, and he becomes inextricably tangled in the town's net of mysteries. Soon, Erwin isn't sure if there is a way out, or if the things that lie unseen will devour him before he can find the answers he's looking for.

Summary
There are two types of beasts: those who become infected, and those who are trying like hell not to be. Levi doesn’t admit to be any better than the rest of them—he does what he needs to do to survive, even if it’s at the expense of others’ lives.
He lives alone. Travels alone. But Erwin Smith is up to something, something bizarre and life-altering, and Levi can’t help but stick his nose in it. And once he’s discovered what it is—well. He’s in too deep now.
No matter how hard Levi tries, Erwin just has a sort of gravity he can’t escape.
