    Summary

    When Jean Kirstein gets shipped to a small town in the Pacific Northwest, he's resolved to keep on the straight and narrow and avoid getting involved in any trouble, danger, or difficult situations whatsoever. None whatsoever...

    So of course, all it takes is a few friendly faces, a few not-so-friendly faces, and a missing seal pelt to blow that plan completely out of the water...


    Basically, "what if Twilight but with Selkies instead of Vampires?"

    Summary

    Fate...

    Whether it's an endless series of failures, sorrows and flashes of pain, or, on the contrary, easy victories, achieving goals without defeats, with a minimal price for happiness... People say: "so this is fate."
    Someone with proud joy, drawing all the best from the gushing spring of life, and someone with melancholy humility, looking at the distant blue sky from the deepest hole. There have always been and will be those who stand at different ends of the "lucky-unlucky", and those - somewhere in the middle, closer to one or the other mark, and yet...

    It's just unfair...

    No, not even that...

    It's cruel.

    Summary

    Sometimes, when looking out the window of the “Wings of Freedom” during a hyperspace jump, Armin saw his own life. Sometimes, when instead of admiring the blurry ghost of stars and the speed that cleverly deceives the light, more pessimistic and dispassionate associations come to mind.

    An indistinct scribble, a weak-willed flow…

    Not that it happened too often, but not rarely either. These thoughts just were. Because it was true.

    His life was a damn endless flow. He never had the strength to fight, and so he gave in. Became just a passenger on board, obediently floating wherever it too would float. Figuratively and literally.
    Not that he cared…

    Summary

    He knew that he had been here before, more than once. And yet each time was like the first. Unfamiliar and familiar at the same time, like a forgotten memory - the harder you reach for it, the further away it becomes, teasing with erased images, vanished thoughts. What is that splashing in time with the tide..?
    Pain?
    Fear?
    It is hidden, calm, like the deep layers of water. It does not disturb for the time being, and it seems as if it does not exist at all... And yet to think so is the greatest mistake. What can you oppose to the ominous and oxygen-free depths, where there is no air, no light, no hope..?

    Or briefly about the fact that the sea keeps a lot in itself. Even if it is not real...

    Summary

    Armin Arlert and Eren Jaeger were supposed to go beyond the walls, explore the world, and visit the sea.

    All of that was lost when Armin cradled his best friend's decapitated head, 80% of humanity wiped out due to a childhood dream.

    As he moves to let go of his friend and their dream, something unexpected happens, plunging him back into the past, allowing him the opportunity to change all that went wrong and save the one he cares for.

    The question is, can he change a fate that has already been written?
