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, explicit sexual content, smoking, suicidal thoughts, self harm, mention of abuse and SA, minor characters death etc.

You've spent your entire life proving you're worth keeping-training your body, sharpening your ambition, becoming whatever the world asked of you in order to survive in Marley as an Eldian. Paradis is supposed to be temporary. A pause. A place to breathe while the storm you created blows over back in Marley. Instead, it gives you everything you tried to leave behind. Old friends you've missed. Old truths you want to ignore. And of course; an attractive stranger who quickly becomes the bane of your existence here in Paradis. Jean Kirstein-sharp-tongued, stubborn, and infuriatingly familiar. A hockey player who calls you out for wanting more. For wanting out. For refusing to accept the identity you were born into. You clash over pride, survival, and the choices that shaped you both. But beneath the tension is something harder to ignore-an unfinished connection, a promise that never really stayed broken. cover art by xhealer_ on ig / tiktok!! good rankings! #1 in AOT -- 03/03/26 #1 in JEAN -- 03/03/26

For the first time in your life, you've taken matters into your own hands and granted yourself some much-needed change. Not only does Marley State University offer a great program, but it also gives you people who feel like the functioning family you've always longed for. Of course, you can't get along with everyone-especially not those who don't even make an effort of getting to know you. But maybe there's more to that than just pure arrogance. 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 friends to lovers slow burn. In your senior year of high school, your best friend went missing without a trace and you were the last person to see her before she disappeared, making you the prime suspect. Two years later, you return to your hometown to start your sophomore year of college and run into a face you never thought you would see again, Eren Jaeger. Assimilating into his group of friends, you realize just how connected the world truly is. With the two-year anniversary of your friend's disappearance nearing close, you begin to question loyalties within Eren's friends. Near the anniversary of your friend's disappearance, another person goes missing and you, once again, were the last person to be seen with them. Were you just in the wrong place at the wrong time? Or are you not as innocent as you propose... A certain mullet-headed friend of yours is fully convinced of your innocence, enough to help you bring justice to your friends who have disappeared. DISCLAIMER: Y/N is an unreliable narrator and often lies to herself. The truth of a lot of things rests within other POVs that are not Y/N's. This does not mean Y/N is lying all the time, it just means that this fic will require a lot of thinking, which may not be everyone's cup of tea. This story will not be a romance-oriented fic, it is a mystery plot with a romance sub-plot. Not affiliated with Attack on Titan by Hajime Isayama.

You swore you'd never love again. Not after grief hollowed you out and left you carrying ghosts. Jean Kirstein swore he'd never surrender again. Not after being treated like a puppet in a life scripted by someone else's control. Neither of you asked to collide. Together-nothing but unraveling threads, but scars sure have a way of recognizing each other. And once the walls crack, it's only a matter of time before everything shatters. What happens when the grief you've buried finds its reflection in another broken soul? ⋆｡˚ ☁︎ ˚｡⋆｡˚☽˚｡⋆ - 𝐚 𝐜𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐞𝐠𝐞 𝐚𝐮 𝐬𝐞𝐭 𝐢𝐧 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐥𝐝 𝐨𝐟 𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐚𝐜𝐤 𝐨𝐧 𝐭𝐢𝐭𝐚𝐧. 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲 𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐥𝐮𝐝𝐞𝐬 𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐮𝐫𝐞 (𝟏𝟖+) 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐦𝐞𝐬 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐝𝐚𝐫𝐤 𝐜𝐨𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐭. 𝐭𝐫𝐢𝐠𝐠𝐞𝐫 𝐰𝐚𝐫𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬 𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐥𝐲. 𝐢𝐧𝐭𝐞𝐧𝐝𝐞𝐝 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐚𝐝𝐮𝐥𝐭 𝐫𝐞𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐫𝐬 - ᐢ..ᐢ nice rankings ៸៸ ✦ ~ #1 erenjaeger ~ #1 snkfanfic ~ #7 jeanxreader ~ #10 aotfanfic

Silent with a presence that demands attention, bearing scars without a story to give and a smirk that holds together a carefully crafted facade of control.

A start athlete, a smile that doesn't reach her eyes, and a strange familial bond to History Professor Levi Ackerman, she pulls the attention of hockey captain Jean Kirstein.

[Jean Kirstein x Reader] College AU ╔══ ❀•°❀°•❀ ══╗ For twelve long years, she has fought against Jean Kirstein, the brilliant, insufferable academic rival who seems to always be one step ahead. Their rivalry is a quiet storm, the kind that brews in classrooms and library corners, sharp words and silent glances exchanged across chalkboards. She has never needed anyone, least of all him, until now. Desperate to pass Calculus, a subject she has long avoided, she swallows her pride and turns to him for help. It's not easy, surrendering to a man who knows her every weakness, her every flaw, and yet, as they spend late nights in the glow of desk lamps, something shifts between them. In the space between lessons and equations, an unexpected friendship is born-fragile at first, like the delicate curve of an unsolved formula. But as the days pass, it grows, complicated and tender, until the lines between competition and affection blur. [Caution] Drugs, smoking, cursing, ect
