Paradis University is meant to be a clean slate, a place where you can pretend and no one knows your scars. That plan falls apart the moment you meet Jean Kirstein. The cocky, infuriating captain of the football team and your friend's worst influence. He manages to get under your skin like no one else, and you swear you'll never fall for someone like him. You hate him. He hates you. Or at least that's what you tell yourself, But between heated arguments there's the unexpected moments of softness, the feelings you can't outrun, until stolen glances turn into late nights, and slowly love finds you where you least expect it. ☆⋆｡𖦹°‧★ ⚠︎ Cautions→ Violence, blood, traumas, sexual content, smoking, suicidal thoughts, self harm, mention of abuse and SA, minor characters death etc.

"It started with comfort. It ended with him being the only thing that could break me." When Jean Kirstein and Eren Yeager move back to Shingashina from their studies in Amsterdam, you're a wreck. Freshly heartbroken, barely functioning, and definitely not ready to see the two men who've shaped your life: Eren, your brother, and Jean, his best friend, practically family. Jean's cocky, tattooed, too good with his hands, and the kind of person your brother always warned you about. And yet, when he's the only one who can help you navigate this mess, you can't ignore the way his presence unsettles you. Protective, attentive, and impossibly close, he reaches for you when you fall apart, and suddenly the line between care and something more blurs. He promised no feelings and he lied. {˙⋆✮rankings} 1 in #yearner 10/11/25 1 in #kirstein 10/11/25 12 in #shingekinokiojin 26/11/25 7 in #jeankirstein 5/12/25 1 in #jeankirschtein 10/12/25 17 in #attackontitan 4/03/26 (slight substacne abuse, smut, violence)
