Spring Thaw by Watergirl1968 for pinkheichou
Fandoms: Shingeki no Kyojin | Attack on Titan
06 Aug 2018
Tags
Summary
Set in rural Church River, Ontario, Spring Thaw is the story of Levi Ackerman, a deaf novelist trying to come to grips with a farm he doesn't want, and a loss he never asked for.
When members of his farming community begin to fall ill, a young environmental technician is assigned to survey Levi's farm and the surrounding countryside.
Armin Arlert is bright, passionate and hopelessly awkward. Raised by deaf family members, the complex language of signing is as natural to him as breathing.
Beyond a common language, Levi and Armin discover that they have both navigated loss and bereavement, and both have a desire to honour their loved ones through living with purpose.
As spring unfolds, their budding friendship catches fire; by turns clumsy, witty, sensual and sarcastic.
I hope you enjoy this glimpse into rural Ontario life, the colourful characters and the love story at it's core!

Summary
Lazy summer days, lavender fields, sun reflecting on pale skin, aimless bike travels, ...
Jean Kirschtein is 18 when a college student, Marco Bodt, comes to spend two weeks at the villa he shares with his parents in Southern France. It doesn't take long for Jean to appreciate this newcomer more than he would've liked to admit.
(heavily inspired by "call me by your name" by André Aciman, beautiful book but get rid of the underage content)

Summary
We stopped telling the story a long time ago. Once upon a time, though, people knew that the last person to die in a parish one year would have to hang back the next year and help Death get his shit together.
I was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. 'Jean Kirschtein, Death's secretary' doesn't exactly have a ring to it.

Summary
Every year Marco Bodt returns to the camp he accredits with saving his life. From being a punk in trouble with the law to becoming a soldier and eventually a teacher the troubled youth program at Camp Odyssey kept him from turning down a dangerous road. He'd not denied, however, having the time of his life there when he was a stupid 17yr old. One 15yr old kid named Jean Kirschtein had given him a summer he'd never forget though he'd tried so desperately to.
Now with a new counselor to the program and his job being ripped out from under him Marco is more than angry. His anger only flares when a ghost of 10 years past stares him down and doesn't remember him. Jean Kirschtein is the new counselor for the TY program and has the audacity to pick a fight? Fine. Two can play that game. Unfortunately, some campers catch wind of their true problem and begin to set the two up so they can have more freedom with overbearing counselors off their backs. If two can play the game, can 10?
A tale ensues of the past coming back to rear it's ugly head. Some things, however, are better left in the past.....or are they?

Summary
Jean is a cynical asshole who has no friends, needs no one, and doesn't believe in love in any shape or form. Well, he has one friend, and he knows nothing about Jean's life. It's a good setting, enough for Jean. After all, he shamelessly takes his clothes off and dances for money (and if you pay enough, he'll do pretty much anything), and it doesn't exactly make a great conversation starter. "Hi, my name is Jean and I'm a stripper slash prostitute. I'm also pretty darn gay." Everything's good and nothing hurts until one day Jean is hired for a birthday party. A birthday party that consists of one person: Marco. As it turns out, it's just a big prank to embarrass Marco, since none of his friends actually know he's gay.
Marco is a blushing virgin (so Jean seems to think), as naïve and sweet as they come, and my god Jean can't stand it. But Marco is hypnotized by the younger guy, completely oblivious to Jean's snarky sarcasm and misanthropic view of the world. Hell, he's ready to pay good money just to see Jean.

Summary
"I don't know what to do with him," Jean said. "He's like if Buddy the Elf were a hot Italian guy. He will say literally anything to anyone, he drinks espresso like water, he sat on Santa's lap at the mall and asked for a win at US Nationals and a boyfriend, and then looked me right in the face."
Reiner clapped Jean on the back. "Marry him," he said. "I'll officiate."
**********Jean is a high-strung hockey player who goes all out, trying to escape his anxious mind; Marco is a charismatic ice dancer with a smile that could melt the ice. To Jean he seems too perfect, untouchable. But as they get to know each other, Jean realizes Marco’s life hasn’t been all sunshine and roses, and they have far more in common than he ever could have guessed.
This is the JeanMarco side of my Eremin ice skating AU, Break my Fall!
