And yet, old shadows seem to follow you everywhere. Your guilt-tainted heart, always torn and distant, will it finally be set free and find its home? © all rights met . ݁₊ ⊹ . ݁ ⟡ ݁ . ⊹ ₊ ݁.

{ Jean Kirstein x fem! Y/N } || Modern AOT AU Your life is in shambles. Your relationship with your boyfriend Jared is hanging on by a thread ever since he moved to New Eldia to pursue a career in music. After one of the most grueling semesters you've endured throughout the entirety of your college career, you have one thing to look forward to- moving to Marley City. With a new degree in biology, a job working in a research lab one of the most prestigious universities in the country under your belt, and a chance to live a life you've only ever imagined in the city that never sleeps- you know you have to take charge of your life before you lose your last shred of humanity. You move into a run-down 2 bed/1bath apartment in the heart of the Marley district, expecting a girl your age to occupy the other bedroom based on what the leasing company told you. Instead, a tall 22 year old man appears in your apartment, and you don't need your degree to tell that you guys are polar opposites. You're a bright, diligent, 4.0+ GPA scholar with dreams of getting into an M.D/PhD program. An introverted homebody at heart with a close circle and a closed off heart. A self-proclaimed nerd with a knack for the finer things in life like cheap moscato, obscure coffee shops, and long days sunbathing with a book in hand and headphones on. He's an attractive narcissist who only cares about going out and fooling around with anyone and anything that distracts him from his dreary job at a small investment banking firm. Sassy and reckless with an overly nonchalant attitude that makes your blood boil. Two opposing forces, one unit in the big city. Only the universe knows what apartment 215 has in store for you. ⋅˚₊‧ ୨୧ ‧₊˚ 18+, dark content mentioned so please heed any trigger warnings and read at your own risk!

{Currently discontinued, will be picked up soon} You thought this Christmas would be perfect. The city sparkled with lights; carols drifted through the streets made everything feel magical. But then it all fell apart. In an instant the warmth vanished, leaving you cold and alone, right in the middle of the bustling city. Your chest ached, your heart felt ripped out and the question kept looping in your mind; what just happened? Meeting Jean Kirstein, the new starting quarterback, you thought that would just be another person added to your friend group. But the closer he gets, the sooner you realized that there's something more to him that keeps pulling you in. Is it because he's a new face? Or is this feeling more underlying with a different feeling than what you expect. Jean x Fem Reader Modern AU in college, no titan powers Not my art!!

"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 (slight substacne abuse, smut, violence)

Your first year at university was full of friends, nights out, and a melancholic longing for a boy who just doesn't seem to want you. Eren Jeager is one of the best players on Paradis University's Rugby team. Fast and aggressive, their number 21 is the star player. And he knows it. Arrogant, cocky and with pretty green eyes, he could get any girl he wanted. So when he goes home with you after a drunken Wednesday Sports night at the rugby team's favourite club, of course you become obsessed. But Eren just doesn't seem to want anything more than a no strings attached fling, leaving you desperately clinging to any ounce of affecting he throws your way. So now you're back for your second year, desperate to show Eren what he missed out on. But what if your obsession to prove to yourself that you aren't unlovable, that you can make this boy want you, begins to interfere with your other relationships. What if, by pouring all your energy into one, arrogant rugby player, you risk missing out on another one, just as arrogant, but twice as worthy? An AOT UK University AU.
