My Fanfiction

Spider-Verse

Tangential Motion (In Progress)

Gwen swallowed, hoping the boy she had buried could hear her. And perhaps, the boy she had lied to and failed so entirely. “I miss you every day. And I promise I’m trying to make up for it.” “But are you doing enough?” And to that question, she fell quiet. She could never do enough to make up for everything she had twisted and broken. - Gwen and Miles, picking up the pieces after the worst happens with Spot.

Go Home, Gwen

The Go Home machine doesn’t send Gwen home. Instead, she’s sent back in time, to the basement of Earth-1610’s Peter Parker.

Watercolor Skies, Twisted Webs

Gwen and Miles struggle to find each other across universes. Even when they do, the weight of what has been done risks tearing down everything between them.

So I did a thing, again. Autopsies of the Rumbling, volume number 4.

Starring Gabi being a product of war, Pieck being tired, and Historia being resilient. Ah, and Ymir, her daughter, is a menace lol

- - -

Armin keeps buying Annie dresses, pale blue floating things that surround her knees as the wind surges through the wide streets of Paradis, covering her thighs as she bends down in the lush grass when they all come together to join Historia on her monthly picnics. It annoys her.

Worse than that, Gabi is here, visiting Reiner. Clinging to Pieck.

That is, in Annie's opinion, her first mistake. Because Gabi is a very special kid. She's violent. She harbors an animosity at the core of her being that makes her dangerous.

It makes her look like Eren.

Or, Pieck, Historia and Gabi have one thing in common: they loved the shifter of the Jaw.

Seriously one of the most incredible fics I've read

[annawayne]

Now I need an art/fic about lifeguard/surfer Annie and marine biologist Armin, who comes to the ocean for the first time, and falls in love not only with the azure waters (Something definitely to consider...)

[melimpostor]

Something something Armin wants to see sealife from his own eyes so bad but can't swim (bc poor background? no time? maybe idk) so SOMEONE has to teach him... (maybe save his ass once before that, maybe-) And Annie's first impression is: "passionate by the sea but can"t swim ??? goofball." But then at some point they bond over swimming lessons. Armin can finally swim, he invites her to scuba dive one day and whoa- she never actually took the time to appreciate ow pretty it can be underwater and boi what a sight to behold And then they make out on the beach

[alfavictor]

Lol one of my many unfinished drafts is called Swimming Lessons for this exact reason

But a new threat emerges, forcing her to confront the ghosts of her past and the consequences of her choices. And when a familiar face appears in the most unexpected of places, Gwen has to decide if some things are better left buried. Yet, out of the grief and rubble, something may still be salvaged. - Gwen and Miles don’t talk for two years after the events of BtSV. This is their journey back together.

Message from the Author:

I'm excited and a little nervous to finally release this fic that I've been working on for a while. It's meant to be an exploration of a "worst case" ending to BtSV, and how there still might be healing in desperate situations. Hope y'all enjoy and thanks for reading if you' do!

I'm back -ish

I have 6ish weeks when I'm free from school.

If y'all see me responding to 6 month old Ao3 comments that should have really gotten a reply earlier - that's why

There's a couple of drafts for AruAni and Ghostflower that I'm planning to finish up before school starts. Hopefully some more content for y'all.

[melimpostor]

Absolutely adore your art! Wb some Aruani angst (up to your interp as to why)

Heya ! First off : thanks !! Glad you like it :D Also, sorry i'm super late- but okay here goes I have this gut wrenching AU i inflicted myself , where i imagined what would happen if Eren and Mikasa actually ran away together and how it could sign the end of Paradis. Its pretty angsty and hurt / no comfort so continue at your own discretion please-

Marley is finally able to finish what they started on the island with their search for the coordinate, killing military and civilians alike in their quest. Yet, their target is nowhere to be seen. The paradisians soldiers as a whole were no match. Outnumbered and with a technology far behind, they are falling like flies. Levi's squad is barely holding on, something remarquable considering their small number. Still, something felt very wrong; Where the hell is Armin ?! He wasn't quite de same since his two closest friends left. He became way quieter, a shadow of his past self. His absences were noticed. It wasn't the first time he missed his duty, though nobody had the heart to sermon him or ask him where he went. But today was one time too many.

By pushing their way into the inner walls, Marleyan military eventually find the place Annie is secluded. And that's where Armin stands, by her side. At a time where he felt utterly lost and confused, coming here was the last thing keeping him sane and giving him some comfort. The soldiers aim at him. Shouting undecipherable slurs Armin doesn't totally catch. He seems very unbothered by the intrusion, as if he knew all along they would eventually come here. Maybe it's his punishment for deserting his comrades, or for misunderstanding his best friend's distress... Maybe it's his punishment for killing Berthold, or for betraying Annie. Maybe it's his punishment for being so weak and such a disapointment. It doesn't really matter anyway. He seems at peace for what comes next.

(Maaaybe it's more Armin centered than Aruani ,sorry ! But i think there's potential for Aruani angst, especially if he's not shot on sight-)

[alfavictor]

Lemme gush about this for a bit

Okay you absolutely blew me away with this. First of all - the scenario?? Wonderfully angsty and heartbreaking, better than I could ever imagine. Inspirational after all.

Also you're a fantastic writer.

And that second panel - the framing, it's perfect. That emptiness but pure desolation, with Annie floating in the background. Absolutely fantastic

[zuzusexytiems]

I'm 1000% prepared for this to flop but I'm resharing anyway just in case 🥲

[moonspirit]

Moon! About Annie thinking Armin started loving her out of guilt is soo canon. Poor girl never saw herself as anything but a weapon, a monster and a bad person. So blind to her own value, I can see her believing something like that at some point (mostly at the beginning).

Heeeelloo!

Yeah this is something that I've seen in the AA fandom here on Tumblr when I returned last year. If I'm not wrong, I believe Clouds had a few posts touching on this in particular (if I'm wrong, then I've probably only talked about it with her in our DMs haha xD).

But yes, seeing as Annie's immediate reaction on the ship to Armin's continued visits during her 4 years in the crystal was "oh yeah, it was just a clever strategy to get me on my side, you wanted to be a good person to me, yea yeah i get it bye"... It's not very off then, to think he only loves her out of guilt over what he's done to her in the past and out of a sense of obligation to maybe keep her company and show her empathy and compassion. With how poorly she thinks of herself, yes, why would such a kind-hearted boy who could have anybody of his pick want to love someone like her?

[alfavictor]

Lwk my fav headcanon and my roman empire. Like there's layers and layers and layers to aruani angst

[distortedclouds]

Who would win the Boop Wars?

Annie

Armin

Voting ended onApr 2, 2024

[alfavictor]

I don't usually weigh into these debates but cmon its Annie.

Armin might be outwardly more affectionate. He'll put up a good fight. But Annie is a weapon sharpened to razor's blade with man martial talents. Once she knows that it's a competition, she'll use her talents and years of experience to achieve a total tactical and strategic victory.

[moonspirit]

We all know Armin would feel like shit if he was in a fight with Annie even if it wasn't his fault. But what if he were to make her cry? Unintentionally say something insensitive, or maybe Annie was extra sad/vulnerable that day? (Dumb question, it's off the cliff for him of course)

I think he'd just send himself to the gallows.

Because I believe (it's just my opinion ofc) that even if he's got a good relationship with Annie post-canon in a form where he knows she's safe, secure, and wakes up every morning to a lazy, peaceful day, that his guilt at trapping her inside that crystal for four long terrifying years will still rear its ugly head more often than not and remind him of the suffering he's caused her. Those nightmares she wakes up from where she thinks she's still in the crystal? Because of him. Sometimes the insomnia that makes her stay up till the wee hours of morning? Because of him. And sometimes just the low snoring and steady breaths she pulls and pushes from her lungs in tranquil sleep? Something she couldn't have when she was in the crystal... Because of him.

When he's trying not to crack on a near constant basis from this overwhelming guilt he willingly inflicts on himself (sometimes it's just out of his control too), ofc making Annie cry because of something he says or didn't say, or being generally irritable because of other things on a day when she's feeling lower than usual - it's going to be very hard on him, when he realises he's making her suffer yet again - and this time without any underhanded plans factoring in too! That's definitely worse isn't it?

While I think Armin is level headed and calm and generally keeps his temper on a tight leash, I don't put it above him to snap or yell when circumstances warrant it. Sometimes suppressing your rage can make a person boil over, and under the right temperatures, I can definitely see Armin losing his shit. It could be entirely because of things outside his control, and it could be Annie's behaviour itself (maybe she's not confiding in him, and he's frustrated to begin with, and her silence isn't helping and he's stressed and he just. snaps. It's believable yes?) and it could be a mix of both and many other things - but when her tears fall, or her shoulders slump, or when she goes very still and quiet and exits the room without so much of a word...

You can bet your ass this boy is going to feel crushing guilt that's going to eat him out from the insides.

He'll probably burn (with pain) all over again, like in Shiganshina 🙃

[alfavictor]

Agreed, identical headcanons especially with the whole crystal guilt
