Summary
Everything's so quiet around them. Even as Marco stretches and hums and rustles the sheets. It's a different kind of quiet. A quiet Jean hasn't experienced in a long time. Having been so far removed from the smaller, simpler niceties of life. Something like peace. The word itself feels strange on his tongue. As if it doesn't- shouldn't quite belong.

Summary
“Never. I would never.” He thinks, as he pulls Marco’s arms to cross over his chest. Chases the warmth that shouldn’t bring him so much comfort. “They'd have to tear me away from you. Take me in pieces. In pieces.”

For the longest time, Jean’s been having the same unexplainable night terrors about a home he can’t remember. And for the longest time, Marco’s been the one person he winds up needing the most to console him through it.

Summary
Marco watches, with a startling attentiveness, the way Jean's expression slowly glazes over. The way it settles from something contemplative to something far beyond either of them.
Marco had seen that look in his eyes before, and in spite of it only having been once, it's a look that had burned into the back of his brain enough for him to feel the effects of it since.
"Marco." Jean whispers beside him, and he'd never loved and feared the sound of his own name more.

Summary
When problems with Mikasa once again drive him to his best friend's doorstep, Marco realizes Jean might be looking for a little more than just a shoulder to cry on as a means of coping.

Summary
Jean’s never gotten horribly sick a day in his life. It’s something he’s come to pride himself on, his perfect immune system. That all comes crashing down one morning before school, when he wakes feeling worse than he ever has before. Marco insists on helping him get better. Jean just wishes the idiot would learn to prioritize himself for once.

Summary
"Don't do that." He whispers, voice sounding soft and genuine as he squeezes the other's shoulder minutely. A gesture that makes Jean's own breath stall in his throat, makes his muscles tense and his heart stumble stupidly in his chest. It doesn't help that Marco's close enough that Jean can pick up his familiar fragrance of pine trees and sweet vanilla.
"Don't do what?" He manages to say back, rolling his shoulders a little in hopes that gentle hand will pull away. But all he gets is another reassuring squeeze as Marco leans in enough to nudge that shoulder with his own.
"Don't pretend with me...and don't act like I shouldn't care."
Jean and Marco obliviously pining after each other in the military police.

Summary
Jean and Marco get paired up for a friendly (maybe slightly heart-breaking) round of marbles and an unexpected twist in the game might just end in a little bit of confusion and a LOT OF pain and maybe a touch of romance and comedy but considering this is a crossover between two of the most depressing tv shows on the planet probably not a lot
SQUID GAME AU- so don’t read if you haven’t watched cause like basically spoilers !!
