    Summary

    Did Historia ever have so little? Did she ever have so much?

    “I’ve loved you,” she says, “since I first learned the word love from a book.”

    “Must’ve been quite late in life,” teases Ymir, playing with Historia’s necklace, tracing patterns with her fingers on her collarbone. “What, you never learned to read until you were 16.” She laughs, that loud and reckless and kind laugh that she reserves just for Historia. Ymir’s always loud, and often reckless, but kindness is something she can’t afford often. Only in the privacy of their castle, this one-bedroom cocoon with peeling sickly-yellow paint cracking off the walls. It’s beautiful, she thinks, because it’s theirs. No one can reach them here in their fortress.

    “No, I’m serious,” says Historia. “I’m certain. I’ve always loved you.”
