    Summary

    “I had wondered—” Erwin coughs again, and is cowed into lowering his gaze when the Captain looks at him. He has the most scrutinising of stares. Erwin isn’t sure if he can see out of his left eye, but in that moment, it could well be penetrating his heart. “Ah, that is. In your letter, you didn’t mention much. Of what you expected from me during this session.”

    The Captain takes so long to answer, that Erwin begins to think he does not feel inclined to say anything at all. He finishes his tea, and returns his cup to the tray. “What does your job usually entail?”

    “Usually? Well, I might accompany a client to an event, or have dinner with them, or simply keep them company.”

    “Do you have sex with them?”

    “Yes.” Erwin swallows.

    In which Levi is a retired war veteran who hires Erwin to drink tea with him in silence.

    Summary

    Gloves shielding his hands, an apron tied off neatly at his waist, and his hair covered with a handkerchief, no one dares disturb Levi where he sits in the cobbled courtyard. The sharp scent of bleach fills the air, accompanied by Levi's gentle chiding as he works over bone after bone, each one scrubbed of the oil, grime, and sinew which stubbornly cling until they glow a gentle ivory.

    ---

    As hard as he finds it to return to Shiganshina, Levi cannot ease the heavy knot in his stomach until certain death rites have been performed.

    Summary

    “It’s always been in you, this thing, this pathetic fucking parasite. This need for violence. You could do something great with it, if it doesn’t kill you first. It’s why you’re no one. It’s why you’re always cold. I bet it’s warm now though, huh? A hot bath after a long day. But don’t mistake it for love. Not for a second. It isn’t love. It’s our chains.”

    There’s a new gang threatening the Rippers’ monopoly on illegal weapons dealing, growing like a tumour in London’s financial heart. Levi, the Rippers’ strongest weapon, is given a simple task: cut the head off the opposition; kill their leader, Erwin Smith.

    Dark Ackerbond organised crime AU.

    Summary

    "Levi misses Erwin in the margin between sleeping and waking. He thinks about Erwin when he steps out of a hot bath into cold air. He imagines Erwin’s new life, his new vocation, his new family, when the seasons change, or when he blows the candles out, or now, as the sun sets. The only space he does so is a space of a threshold. It does not feel good or bad. It does not feel happy or sad. Levi realises now, however, that this is not the same as it feeling nothing."

    Six years after the War ends and they part ways, Levi finds himself at Erwin's door again.
