    Summary

    The Rumbling is over. Reiner Braun has survived despite his best attempts at a heroic death. Now he has to face an unknowable future.

    “You a soldier?”

    A pointed look at his uniform, the strange metal braces criss-crossing his legs and the straps and belts that held the ODM gear. His shirt is an unidentifiable colour, stiff with sweat and salt and dried titan fluid.

    “Yeah. Yeah, I am. I was there.”

    He’s dizzy saying it. The battle rushes at him. Terror and desperation. The strength of his titan (a strange longing grips him at what he has lost). The surety that he would die on Eren's back. The unreality of his survival, neither desired nor anticipated. The wrongness of his fragile human body, exhausted and bleeding.

    The man makes a sign to ward off evil. “Then I guess you better come in.”
