Starting over, you've discovered, is mostly a matter of place; put enough miles between yourself and everything that came before, find a roommate you like, make friends with people who know nothing about you, and eventually the person you used to be begins to feel like some distant cousin. Shiganshina is good for that. Eren Jaeger is not. He's your roommate's friend, then yours, then something considerably more inconvenient. He's infuriating in ways that become intimate, intimate in ways that become problematic, and somewhere along the line, disliking him becomes difficult to separate from want. The trouble with becoming close to someone is that you never notice it happening. There's no moment when the water reaches your throat. No warning that you've wandered too far from shore. By then, you're already submerged.

College au: Jean x reader | Eren x reader Transferring to Trost State was meant to be a fresh start: new uni, new friends, and most importantly - no fuck-ups. Except that last one was proving to be a lot more difficult than you thought. Between wild parties, a dysfunctional friend group, and one reckless night, you find yourself thrown head first into the chaos of college life - of course including all the love, pain, loyalty, (and shit ton of partying) that comes with it. Oh, and there's also getting caught between Eren and Jean, two people who might just be the best and worst decisions you ever made. If navigating college wasn't complicated enough already, then adding in a messy love triangle you never saw coming might be. Mature 18+ content: smut, drugs, adult themes + other triggers. --- #1 in collegeau 13/04/26 #1 in aotfanfic 22/06/26 #1 in jeankirstein 10/08/26 #1 in jean 15/09/26 #1 in erenxreader 06/05/26 #1 in jeanxreader 19/07/26 #2 in snk 21/08/26 #2 in aotau 21/08/26 #2 in eren 05/09/26
