LevixOC
Attack on Titan (Shingeki no Kyojin)
After Season 1 (Warning: there will be spoilers.)

Levi's expression, his height, his number of unassisted titan kills; these are what make him famous. A glare is natural to receive from him, so no one is surprised when he never laughs or smiles. But just because he doesn't show emotions doesn't mean he doesn't have any. His heart has been broken and he is trying to heal, but is it even possible to heal your own heart?

Ecyn has been known for her size and determination. She is mocked for joining the Scouting Legion, but once Levi is assigned to train her, she begins to believe she really can be great.

As they get closer, they find that they might be just what the other needs. But if Levi is afraid of another heartbreak and Ecyn can't stand his emotionlessness, can they stay together long enough to make it impossible to separate?

A/N
The burn is so slow it doesn't end up happening at all. Just feel like I have to warn you if you're going in thinking Levi finds any kind of romantic love. Mutual respect, sure. Friendship, possibly. But somehow I wrote it into impossibility. That being said, plenty of people have enjoyed this book, clearly. And though it is so very much not canon, it's probably still good. I like it still.
