    Summary

    Bertholdt kept his eyes down in the mess hall as of late. The sight of his "comrades," his unbroken, infantile little comrades, chattering and laughing and squabbling amongst themselves, set an unnameable pit in his stomach.

    (He never left that room full, no matter how much he ate.)

    Bertholdt's body changes in the weeks following his encounter with Reiner in the washroom. What starts off as a minor ailment escalates into an infection that increasingly consumes his life, and which he struggles to keep hidden from his (should-be) classmates. Under the suffocating environment of the 104th, Bertholdt's relationship with his comrades frays, his mind strains, and lines that ought to have remained solid are blurred.

    Something gnaws at him.

    And it will not go away.

    Summary

    Before breaking her ankle, singles skater Ymir was on the edge of figure skating greatness. Now she’s back, and if she wants to be competitive, she’ll have to relearn EVERYTHING despite her ankle plate and her developing crippling crush on a certain female pairs skater. Can she get her triple axel back before Grand Prix assignments go out?

    Pairs skater Bertolt’s been told it’s good PR to pretend he’s in a relationship with his figure skating partner, Historia. The problem is: last time he dated his partner, it ended disastrously. The other problem is: he’s not in love with Historia. He only has eyes for his best friend, a certain burly hockey player. Can he grow a spine and stand up for himself before it’s too late?

    Ice dancer Mikasa is struggling with her body and her, or rather, their gender. It doesn’t help that they’ve been spending so much time around Annie, their biggest rival. It especially doesn’t help that they’ve both recently switched to ice dance.

    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.”

    Summary

    Reiner searches for Jean at the bar after he misses another information brief. Things escalate.

    There’s a moment of disorientation as he steps into the gloom of the bar. It’s dark and cool inside, the usual smell of beer and liquor, a haze of cigarette smoke, the jukebox playing the same record on a loop. Nothing much coming out of Liberio these days. The bartender washes glasses in a sink of soapy water. Two men play cards, faces grim, a pile of coins and crumpled bills between them. A girl titters in the corner; a young soldier's hand running up her thigh, and she throws her head back, blond hair a corona around her face in the dim, shadowy room. The place has a subterranean feel, although it’s just off the palazzo on a twisty little side street.

    “Time to go home, Jean.”
