Y/n used to have a future. Once upon a time, there were dreams of stages, spotlights, and cheers - until a single injury shattered all of it. Now? She's barely hanging onto college, drowning in grades, and doing her best to push the world away before it leaves her first. Jean Kirstein wasn't supposed to stick around. Annoying, persistent, and impossible to shake, he shows up when Y/n least wants anyone to. But sometimes the wrong people slip through the cracks, and sometimes the heart can't tell the difference between a lifeline and a hook. This isn't just a love story. This is a story about a boy who let the light in a girl's dark world, flickering where she never thought it could glow again.

After prison for manslaughter, Jean Kirstein disappears, leaving Canada, a shattered night, and whispers that follow him like warnings. Shingashina is quiet. A small house. A forgettable job. A second chance he doesn't think he deserves. He's not here for redemption. He's here to survive. Painting steadies his hands; college keeps him moving. Until history class threatens to unravel him, and you appear. A volunteer tutor, patient, gentle, and impossibly stubborn. You treat him like he's human, not a stranger haunted by shadows. He keeps his distance at first. Short answers. Guarded glances. Walls built from knowing exactly what happens when people get too close. But you don't push. And that's worse. Slowly, silence cracks. Words become warmth, warmth becomes something dangerous. You start to see him, the version the world left behind. And Jean knows how this ends. The truth about Marco Bodt isn't a story. It's a fracture that never healed. And some fractures leave marks no one else should find. The closer you get, the more he realizes he doesn't want you to leave. And maybe, that's the most dangerous thing of all. ˙⋆✮ This story contains mature and potentially distressing themes, including depictions of violence, references to past trauma, and explicit sexual content. It also addresses homophobia and its emotional impact. Reader discretion is advised. Please take care while reading. ˙⋆✮ Rankings 1 in #marcobodt 1 in #kirstein 2 in #excon

{ 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.
