Reiner💔 (cr; @noaryr_)

[attack-on-kiwi]

What do you think about Reiner with an s/o who doesn't want kids at all?

If I'm being honest, it's a huge deal breaker for him. He wants kids in his life in some form as his own.

[attack-on-kiwi]

What are the toxic traits of the cadet corp? If that's too many, could you do eren, armin, mikasa, and marco?

Toxic or just a little problematic? :/

Eren makes other peoples' problems into his problems just because he thinks he can solve it better than them.

Armin thinks walking around with his nose in a book makes him look intellectual rather than an invitation to get hit by a car.

Mikasa thinks stalking people out of worry isn't overbearing or creepy.

Reiner says hi to people in a way that makes them both believe they've met before but neither wants to ask if they have.

Bertholdt consumes cough drops like they're candy.

Annie thinks wearing the same hoodie every day means she doesn't need to wash it.

Jean becomes irrationally obsessed with people then subsequently upset when they don't meet his idealistic version of them.

Marco is pro police until some middle schoolers bully him for filth.

Sasha will listen to you and nod at everything you say only to not have retained anything.

Connie will believe anything if it's said to him with enough conviction.

what are your thoughts on the manga ending?

I feel like I’m one of the few who didn’t mind it. Yeah, there were a couple things I had issues with, but there were just as many components I really enjoyed. I’ll talk a little about it under the cut in order to avoid spoiling.

Attack on Titan 139 spoilers below

I thought that the vision of Armin meeting Eren and Eren explaining his plan was intimate and emotional. Though I don’t agree with some of the steps taken (justifying Ymir’s curse as a consequence of her love for King Fritz) I don’t think it’s done bad enough for it to warrant much of the hate it received. I think with stories like this, it’s extremely difficult to end it on a note that everyone will be happy, and it’s important to respect that the writer is influenced by editors and people on top who might suggest or cut their intentions. Isayama might have wanted it to end like this or be justified like this from the beginning, and I think people are allowed to have their opinions, however I find the crying and threatening I’ve see due to the ending to be quite childish lol.

A point that I’m iffy about is Eren’s sudden confession about Mikasa. A lot of people think it was out of nowhere, and whether you ship them or don’t, it could have been nice to see more development between the two. I don’t think it was out of nowhere. By the end, Eren was so used to lying to his comrades and himself as a way to convince himself of his mission. It was natural for him to repress until Armin finally knocked some sense into him. 

As we know, a good portion of Mikasa’s character is being unyieldingly loyal towards Eren, which is a quality he could easily take advantage of to further his own goals. I also believe that within the setting of Attack on Titan, it’s unreasonable to expect a lot of romantic scenes. We get a few panels of characters blushing around one another, and it should be taken with a grain of salt. I wouldn’t say the two didn’t hae development, it just wasn’t emphasized. Though, you could see Eren’s declaration of wrapping her scarf around her as his most potent confession to her. I thought that was a really good scene that showcased that even though he felt inferior to her in the beginning, he still wanted to ensure her safety. Small (but notable) moments like that are what I think count as development for them. I’ll talk more about Mikasa in a bit.

Personally, I absolutely loved this shot of Armin and Eren embracing one another. There’s a lot I could say about what it represents, such as the two finally finding common ground. Their ideals and missions both led them to the same end, though Eren would be taking the extreme fall for it. I also wonder how long the two of them had gone without a hug or form of physical affection. From a human standpoint, I imagine it must have meant a lot to the two, and I’m happy they shared the hug. I don’t really have a way of properly expressing myself in regards to this, so I’ll just leave it at that. 

Though it was in death, I was glad Mikasa and Armin were finally able to reunite with Eren. This scene honestly gave me chills.

One thing I’d like to mention is the development of comradery between Reiner and Jean. Yes, Reiner eventually ends up gaining the trust of the others as well, but the relationship between these two has always been interesting to me. It was nice to see Reiner presumably check in on Jean out of everyone. 

I would have liked to see snippets of everyone else’s visions of Eren since it seems he visited them as well, but I can see why they would stick to just Armin. However, leaving what he said to Mikasa out of the story leaves room for interpretation. Is the reason she seems at peace due to Eren finally confessing his true feelings, whether they were his intimate romantic feelings or simply his true intentions? Regardless, I would have very much loved to see that, but leaving it a mystery is acceptable as well, since we can form our own conclusions.

The final salute of the scouts. I don’t really know what else to say about this. It felt like a genuinely good conclusion to their mission, and was one of the few conclusions I have no complaints about. 

I thought the reunions were really short and to the point. Seeing Gabi nearly kill Falco was a nice way to lighten the mood and give a sense of normalcy. For me, the scene where Gabi throws Falco cemented that kids could be kids again. 

I might be reaching here with how this scene parallels Armin’s first time defending Eren against the Garrison back in season one. Where Armin was panicking and ran out of the smoke to try and convince them of Eren’s innocence. Seeing how he’s able to power through it now and with the utmost confidence express himself made me really proud. Armin’s character had to be one of the most heart-wrenching yet powerful stories of Attack on Titan. The way everyone looks to him as their leader and the way he accepts his role readily though he knows he still has a lot to learn would make both Eren and Erwin proud. 

I’m glad that winning against the titans didn’t suddenly fix everything. It would be really great to see a possible sequel or even a one shot epilogue showcasing the political climate of the world. Since Eldia seems to be it’s own nation now, I wonder how they’re going to manage backlash and adversity from other nations. As we see with Armin and the others on the boat, it seems they want to get their story out there, but how much will that actually solve? 

I’ve seen this panel get a lot of backlash. There’s even a petition to get signatures to remove Reiner commenting on Historia’s letter. I thought that was a bit much, honestly. I think it’s done in jest, and that Reiner might be reverting back to his old self, whoever that might be. He’s obviously much more relaxed, and it looks like he’s taking care of himself now. I think this is his way of joking around and maybe even poke at Jean and tease him. He knows Jean’s going to bite back at anything he says. I did think that out of all the comedic panels we could have, going back to a crush that likely meant nothing was strange. But again, it was a crush that meant nothing, and it’s the butt of a long running joke at this point, so they’re humoring it. After this one panel, he’s back to his usual serious self, though. You can’t say much, I suppose, but i don’t see him as latching onto this or it meaning anything deeper. I’ve heard Isayama is planning on adding a few pages to the last chapter, and I wonder if he will be convinced to redo this particular panel. I can see why other’s would have an issue with this, though.

I’m happy to see that these four were together. I wonder if Onyankopon works closely with Levi. I can see him in contact with Armin, especially since the two have an interest in engineering. Seeing Levi with Gabi and Falco made my heart happy. I’d like to know how exactly Levi decided to let these two in. Again, we don’t get much from a single panel, but I personally like to assume they visit him or even stay with him sometimes and he’s become something akin to another father or uncle figure for them. Levi seems to be doing well, and it’s nice to see him able to relax. I imagine being with the two kids is revitalizing in a sense,

The last thing I wanted to mention was Mikasa’s end. She’s still mourning Eren and has seemingly secluded herself. Though I understand that she’s grieving and now that there’s no need to fight, she can do as she pleases, it’s a bit sad to see her like this. She misses him dearly, and I would assume that takes a toll on her health. Hopefully she sees the others regularly. I know others aren’t too happy about her conclusion, and I was personally underwhelmed. However, I think that she’s not stuck. She’s looking towards a future and a world that Eren sacrificed himself for. It’s a world where she can live as herself- someone who is kindhearted and peaceful. She never wanted to become an aggressive fighter, but that was the hand life dealt her. One could say Eren saved her from that fate. 

This is all just word vomit in the end. All of this to say I’m content with the ending.

Incorrect AOT quotes

[attack-on-kiwi]

how would pieck and porky react to their crush confessing to them? 👀

Pieck Finger:

When her crush asks her to talk in private, Pieck has a hunch about what they may want to discuss. By the way they wring their hands and avert their gaze for a split second while mustering up their best smile, her suspicions are mostly confirmed.

Whether their expression is awkward or smooth, she finds herself smiling at them with her relaxed expression. Her chest bubbles and she laughs, asking them if they hit their head or if they’re teasing her. She might be confident in herself and her social skills, but that doesn’t erase her insecurity when it comes to being an Eldian and being subject to all forms of harassment throughout her life.

Obviously, she’s not sure how to take the confession at first but when her crush admits they’ve been mulling on confession for a long time, she’s convinced. The logical part of her brain tells her it’s best not to get involved with someone, but she doesn’t care to listen to it.

On the outside, she’s smiling at them kindly and confides that she also thinks they’re cute and has a bit of a crush on them. She teases that they beat her to the punch, and now they’re obligated to take her out. 

The confession is much less stressful than her crush might have initially thought it would be. Her laid back demeanor calms them down, and the fact that she reciprocates is more than enough to soothe their nerves. They’re even surprised by her hugging them farewell once they set a time for their first outing. 

When her crush is out of sight, Pieck allows herself to fully grin and there’s a skip to her step that others notice in passing.

Porco Galliard:

It takes careful planning to get Porco alone since he’s always busy or with the other warriors. Honestly, his crush feels like they shouldn’t say anything with how annoyed he looks. He’s not annoyed, that’s just his face. Also, it’s his crush-- he’s trying hard to not make a fool of himself.

Before they can even open their mouth, Porco tells them to get straight to the point since he’s got a meeting with the brass soon and doesn’t care to hear them rant about him being late. When his crush finds that out, they suggest they can talk later. 

Porco refuses and asks what they need. His crush proceeds to confess to them. As soon as he realizes what’s going on, he curses his fair skin and tendency to overheat, since he can feel his ears and neck begin to flush. 

Instinctively, in an unsuccessful attempt to make sense of the situation, he shouts at them to stop playing around. Honestly, it really might turn into a shouting match where Porco thinks someone told them he likes them and now they’re teasing him while his crush is shouting back that he’s being stupid and that not everything is intended to insult him. 

His crush can barely handle his reaction and doubles over to burst out laughing. Porco is dumbfounded but is thankful his blush is calming down. He asks them if they’re okay and they nod, saying they should have expected much. Porco is quiet for a while, looking anywhere but at them while they quiet the rest of their giggles.

Before he leaves for his meeting, he quietly suggests they get together later so he can apologize for his outburst. When his crush calls it a date he groans and quickly makes his way down the hall to get to his meeting. Anyone who sees him notices him failing to hide a smile.

so I was going through the aot tag and noticed everyone makes eren out to be this extremely sex-crazed maniac, and I’m wondering how that headcanon came to be? 

Personally, I don’t think he’s horny to the level people make him out to be, and I definitely think that in canon he’s a virgin lol

[attack-on-kiwi]

HI! how would the warriors react to their s/o overworking themselves? 💔

oop I feel like they’re all prone to overworking themselves

Reiner Braun:

Reiner’s first instinct tells him to remove his s/o from whatever they are working on, but he understands that if they need to get said work done, he shouldn’t intervene too much. He’ll keep a watchful eye over his s/o in case they start derailing and showing signs of fatigue. 

He isn’t above scolding them if they take on more than they can handle.

When his s/o finally gets up and falters, nearly knocking over a candle onto their desk is when he’s suddenly by their side and ready to catch any stray fire hazards. He’ll chide them while pulling them away from their work and making sure they get some rest.

Berthold Hoover:

Bertholdt immediately notices that his s/o hasn’t been coming to bed regularly. He knows they’ve been training hard, but it seems that lately they have upped their workload. He finds them in the training grounds near midnight and watches.

When they stumble is when he finally comments that overworking themselves will do more harm than good. However, his sudden voice nearly gives them a heart attack as they exclaim his sneakiness is what will harm them before a little extra training.

He just has to pull on their sleeve to convince them to head back to their quarters and rest.

Annie Leonhart:

Being someone who will do the bear minimum at most times, Annie gets annoyed when she finds out her s/o is taking on more work than they need to. She doesn’t mean to snap at them, but tells them that no matter how much extra work they do, they’re replaceable and getting exhausted wouldn’t solve anything.

Despite sharing her thoughts, she’ll leave her s/o with a final, ‘Do what you want’. She doesn’t care to get involved in their redundant schemes, and as long as their extra work doesn’t get in the way of their health, she doesn’t care.

At least, that’s what she says. She’ll watch from a distance, and there’s always a cup of tea that appears near her s/o when they look like they’re about to pass out.

Pieck Finger:

Pieck doesn’t like it and will try to convince her s/o to rest. The extra training and report filing might look good on an individual level, but in the grand scheme, it matters very little. So, why should she watch her s/o get stressed? 

Unfortunately, they’re stubborn and won’t listen to her. She doesn’t press them aggressively and instead takes to sitting by them when she can or lying her head in their lap while they work. She does a little extra work herself to look quite tired.

Eventually, her little scheme ends up tugging on her s/o’s heartstrings, and they end up agreeing to take regular breaks if it means she won’t break her neck falling asleep on them.

Porco Galliard:

As soon as he notices, Porco will try to wait for an opportunity to bring up that his s/o is working too much. Unfortunately, he’s not that great at waiting, especially when it comes to the well being of those he loves. As soon as he walks in on his s/o working on strategy proposals for the nth evening in, he snaps at them.

He yells that they need to be smart and put the papers away. Working while tired is only going to lead to burn out, which will lead to mistakes in the field. He’s not yelling because he wants to, he just gets panicked at the idea of them hurting themselves.

Porco ends up feeling awful, but instead of immediately apologizing, he ends up bringing them a small snack before leaving them alone.

Zeke Jaeger:

Similar to Pieck, Zeke tells his s/o that they’re irrelevant in the grand scheme of things, so there should be no reason that they work extra hard. He’ll suggest they take a break and play some catch, but then takes it back since it might be physically taxing. 

He’ll continue to talk to them while they work, which either distracts them or annoys them into not getting any work done. Regardless, Zeke feels he’s successful since they aren’t even holding their pen anymore. 

Zeke will try to coax them to bed by giving them a shoulder massage or rubbing their back. It’s difficult to say no to the jerk, because even though he’s teasing them with stupid insults, he’s being nice, and being nice can do wonders in such a world.

Colt Grice:

Colt understands overworking oneself well enough, that, like Reiner, he has a difficult time. trying to convince his s/o they need to take a break. After being called a hypocrite one too many times, he thinks he should give up. However, he feels bad about not convincing them, which leads to him hovering.

He’ll ask if they need help or if they need a drink. If able to, he’s more than happy splitting their work in order to finish up quicker. This ends up being the system they decide on, and he’s happy enough knowing he can help his s/o in a small way.

The two get their work done in a timely manner, and he makes them pay him back by spending the morning of their next days off lounging in bed.
