    Summary

    Enemy, apprentice, friend. Associate is too clinical, lover sounds too personal, partner too enduring. Confidante? Comrade? Companion?

    There is no word for what Levi is, to him. What do you call an equal other than an equal?

    A counterpart, Erwin thinks.

    Summary

    Violinist Levi Ackerman has a whole collection of the Sina Philharmonic records, from the first to the most recent under the direction of Conductor Erwin Smith. He worshiped the orchestra (but mostly Erwin) like a religion, but due to a low-paying job, assumed that he would never climb to that sort of fame. However, things change when he suddenly finds himself in the same aisle as the maestro at his workplace. Within days, his life turns around for the better, or for the worse. Will he be able to handle the drama musicians have been known to carry? Adventures of Levi becoming concertmaster, some people hating his guts, and Erwin's new discoveries.

    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

    Everyone knows that Erwin Smith is destined for greatness. Young, strapping, and intelligent, he's moved up the ranks almost effortlessly. Frustrated by his robotic charm, his General decides to teach him some humility by forcing him to be a bodyguard to a Crimson - a government sanctioned, high-level prostitute. He's determined to get through this bullshit assignment as quickly as possible...until he's sucked into Levi's world and forced to come face to face with his past, his heritage, and his humanity.

    Origins, slow-burn, prostitution, and a lot of moral greyness ahoy!
