Gawain is a proud, young knight. He follows orders without problems and walks the same path as his brothers, chasing their backs. There was never any other path for Gawain and he readily accepts all of his knightly duties. The next battle he needs to face has a bit more stakes. Its positive outcome could mean the end of war. For the first time, Gawain doubted his orders but did everything he could to protect everyone. 

To win this battle sacrifices will be absolutely necessary. How will Gawain react to a battle that isn't fought by proper knightly procedure? 

This is a short backstory for Gawain, a character featured in my and delirijumbaklave's Visual Novel:

Having to steal valuables for him all while taking care of two kids, Kai and Mary, was really hard. The responsibility you held was weighing down on you, making you think more about them and less about you. You didn't mind though. Anything to stay away from the sinful place you call home. After a while of putting up with Danny though, you had you're last straw ripped away when he hurt you're beloved Mary. You ran away to start a new life, taking Mary with you. You become known as "Shade", a mysterious cloaked criminal known for your stealth and strength. You took pride in your reputation, and the best part was, nobody knew anything about you.

Took you away from the people you loved. They ruined your life, right? But... did they? You're stubbornness and skill capture the attention of a certain short black haired male. Corporal Levi was humanities strongest though, he couldn't like you, could he? He couldn't... At first it seemed strange but pleasant to finally get noticed, but soon you realized, nothing good came from the Corporal. In fact, your life seemed to turn into a living Dystopia.

Once you had that skill, you quickly fought to the top, where the scouts located you. Now, fighting for a new team in a new world, you're given a fresh start, a way to forget the horrible labs and abandonment of the forgotten city. Again you're forced to start from the bottom, slowly chipping your way back to the top. You soon find yourself confronting your past, and looking into the future. Eventually, you find yourself coming face to face with a stoic hero who comes with a mysterious yet familiar past. As you learn to trust each other, you find your own impenetrable façade crumbling like the walls, all at the fault of one man - Levi Ackerman. {Book One} **Warning: This story contains some darker themes as it progresses, and is not for those who may be bothered by such.** ***Quick Disclaimer-I own only my own characters and plot line in this story, and have no ownership over AOT or its characters!***

Be Kind (Doctor Reader x Levi Ackerman) by greymaidenn

Years of hard work landed you the crème de la crème lifestyle a doctor within the Walls could ever dream of - a career in Wall Sina. Unfortunately, the snotty ways of the elites left you feeling unfulfilled, prompting you to seek something more meaningful. You signed up as Military Doctor in the Survey Corps, fighting Titans and healing soldiers. Along the way you made new friends, enemies, and caught the the eye of a particular aloof man in the Corps - Captain Levi himself. Assigned as his personal 'sleep therapist' by Erwin, the Captain seems to be quite taken by your intelligence and witty charms. An unexpected relationship and tension grows, and you found yourself falling for him. Over time, you question your identity and wonder, are you a doctor first and a soldier second? Or are you willing to go against your values as a doctor and take lives instead of saving them? How far are you willing to bend your moral compass to do things for the 'greater good'? - Contains mature content, 18+ smut. Canon-compliant but loosely follow plot.

The Crocus Lawn// Levi x reader BOOK 1 by loticareads

"I never thought of it like that, that we were replacing your comrades." Levi sighed, the boy was right. It was a morbid thought, but on the eve of the largest body recovery mission in Scout history, what else could one think? --- Warnings: language, violence, adult themes, trauma This is a Levi x reader fic, It might be bad because I haven't written fanfics in literally half a decade. I'm going too try and use y/n as infreaquently as possible, the reader may get a nickname at some point. There shouldn't be any spoilers post-season 4, so if youre not caught up don't worry. Also, this is slow SLOW burn, like you don't even meet until like chapter 4, and even then you don't have a conversation for another few chapters. Welcome back if any of you came from my old work. I welcome the veterans who witnessed my now deleted anime fics back in the day.
