Hi hi! Was trying to find this fic that Levi and Erwin are both hackers..like the find each other by hacking into each other’s devices...I can’t remember the name but I would LOVE to read it again. If you can help that would be wonderful, also thank you for all you do it’s so wonderful that there are people in the aot community that are so knowledgeable on fics.
Thank you :) Tbh I’m not nearly as knowledgeable as some of the other folk in this fandom, particularly when it comes to fic, because I’m a bit picky about what I read, so I’m always indebted to the other Eruri writers who often help to identify the fics people are looking for.
This is one I definitely don’t need to ask for help with though! The fic you’re looking for is called Renegade, it’s by the late great @valisi-clark and it’s one of my all time favourite Eruri fics. Here’s a little snippet for you to enjoy....
Then, came Levi. Erwin suspected that someone had been fucking with his laptop for a few weeks. That was fine. There was barely anything on that machine, except for his actual stash of porn and some codes that he had created for viruses or worms that he was trying to build. But one morning, he checked the laptop, and the perpetrator had been sloppy. Some of his porn videos had been moved. Not to a different location. They were out of order in the their folder. Erwin hated it. Someone was in his laptop, and if he didn't box them in fast, they might move to another machine within the house.
He opened notepad and typed out: Who is this? - C0mmand3r. His name wasn't very well known, and he liked it that way. But he felt specifically targeted. In the past, he had asked for some help on the dark web a few times. It was dangerous work. He lost an entire machine over it once. But that was fine. He eventually found the answers. There was no answer on the notepad document for the entire day. The next morning when he woke up. Someone had responded. Those first, glorious two words.
Fuck you.
All of the coding that he had done was missing from the laptop. He had backups. It didn't matter. What mattered was that all of his gay porn had disappeared. He found all of his straight porn in the recycle bin, which had been left there purposely, he imagined.
Erwin messaged back.
If you can figure out the problem I'm having with that worm that I've been working on, please let me know. Leave my porn where I have it. There are times that I need it in a hurry.
Erwin put his porn back in its original folder and closed the laptop. There was no response for a few days. Then, when he checked his laptop one night, there were three new folders on the desktop. One was called WORM. The second was called GOOD PORN. The third was called SHIT PORN.
