Levi has been a heroin junkie for years, trying to escape the hellish reality that is his life and memories, seeing no other way out. Already hopelessly bound within the deepest crevices of addiction, along comes Eren, a bright-eyed naïve teenager who has his own struggles yet somehow believes he can help Levi to be saved from himself. ~~~ "So what about you, then? You gonna stick around?" Eren nodded certainly once. "As long as you let me, I still do want to help you." The raven shrugged nonchalantly. "It's up to you." "No it isn't." Levi cocked a brow. "I can't help you if you don't want to be helped," Eren went on. "From the impression I'm getting-" "Yeah, I need help," Levi cut in, looking down. "Or maybe I just don't want you to leave. I'm not sure of the difference. But if you're here, you're going to help, right? Then I don't have a choice." ~~~ I do not own SNK.

Levi Ackerman resides in a facility for the terminally ill, angry and bitter toward the world for being stripped of his life before he's even allowed to live it. He keeps to himself and in fact shuns any kind of social interaction with anyone. That is, until he stumbles upon the music room, inhabited only by a cancer-ridden teenager who's just as lonely as he is. I do not own SNK.

In this AU, Levi is the lead singer of Shiganshina's local band, For Humanity. He has unknowingly lured, eighteen-year-old, Eren Jaeger into his web of lust and music. Eren has used For Humanity's music as motivation, pushing him through the toughest times in life. Because of that, he feels a certain connection with Levi, who he has never even talked to, let alone met.

"No one saw it coming, that's the way it's done. Countless times have we tried to figure out what happened those of us who were taken, but no one ever knew. We were birthed, fed, clothed, and taken care of. Some of us got seventy years, and some of us got four months. We do not choose our fate. We did not own our destiny. And I was no different. (All of it is in Eren's POV unless stated otherwise.)
