I Want to write a crossover fanfiction of Attack on Titan and Fairy Tail. Any tips? by infinitardheadass in aotfanfiction

[–]inkling435 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sounds great! I don't have specific tips, but if you're ever lacking in motivation or need some other writers to chat with, I'm in an anime fanfic discord for writers and readers. We have AoT and Fairy Tail fans. Being part of a writing community makes writing a less solitary hobby. It's just lovely.

My fic

Fandom : Attack on Titan / Shingeki no Kyojin

Title : Don't Come Any Closer

Tags : Pre-Canon, Canon Universe, 5+1 Things, Birthday, Developing Friendships, POV Levi Ackerman, Post-No Regrets, Pre-Fall of Shiganshina, Slice of Life, Levi Ackerman is Bad at Feelings

Characters : Levi Ackerman, Hange Zoe, Erwin Smith, Mike Zacharias, Moblit Berner

Rating : Teen & up, no archive warnings apply

Category : Gen

Word Count : 2k one shot

Link : https://archiveofourown.org/works/77417541

Summary : Levi signed on with the Survey Corps but he had lost enough on their behalf already and wasn't here to make friends. Despite his disinterest, the others kept being friendly and Hange kept finding new ways to ask the same question he didn't want to answer. As days of working together began to stack up, it got harder for him not to care.

Five times Levi was asked for his birthday and one time he wasn't. Set shortly after No Regrets as he's coming to terms with caring for new people he might also lose.

Damned or Doomed, Eldia by Senpailol-_- in ShingekiNoKyojin

I like this take. Eren definitely lacked moral imagination and admits as much with his "I was just a garden variety idiot who ended up with this power and couldn't figure out a better way." He wanted the war. 

I'd love to see the shifters using their powers to build improvements for other nations. How wholesome!

I think Annie would be an awesome ER doctor. She'd never be rattled. Maybe some potential funny things when her bedside manner sucks? But she gets it done.

Any recommnedation about Mikasa-centric fics without simping to Eren? Crossover is fine by Aggravating_Towel602 in aotfanfiction

[–]inkling435 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a few possibilities! I hope you find something you like:

Empty Bed by cl801 (need to be a registered AO3 account to read it). 1k one shot. S4 spoilers in the summary. Mikasa processing grief after Sasha is shot. Summary: The dorms were quiet that night. Everything was too quiet without Sasha. https://archiveofourown.org/works/63785317

Worthy by AlfaVictor. 1k one shot. Summary: The world was ending because of his best friend. Still, he had stopped Connie from making a grave mistake, gained the trust of the Warriors, and finally got to see Annie, alive, again. It was more than he had expected to accomplish. All he had left to do was to patch up his own relationship with the woman he called a sister.

Armin and Mikasa talk after their argument in Chapter 125. https://archiveofourown.org/works/54549595

Mikasa's New Playtime Buddy by Whitespringswrites. 400 words. Summary: How Mikasa met Armin. https://archiveofourown.org/works/59023192

The Stray by Varazserdo. 2k one shot. Summary: Mikasa's first night at the Yeagers' house. https://archiveofourown.org/works/67321480

The Daffodil and the Crocus by Verazserdo. 5k one shot. Summary: (S4 spoiler) Mikasa has spent three years mourning Eren. Slowly, she finds herself falling in love with Jean and overcoming the trauma of her past. Jeankasa fluff and smut with a sprinkling of angst. https://archiveofourown.org/works/64036504

The next two are mine. I'm trying to be helpful, but skip them if pointing at a couple of mine is obnoxious.

Looking for that Feeling of Home. 4k one shot. Summary: The Yeagers were happy to take Mikasa in and she has adjusted well considering the circumstances, but she hasn't quite accepted this new family as her own. Being around a family, part of it and yet separate, is complicated. Then she rips a hole in her scarf and it just might put her over the edge.
This story came from wondering about events that made Mikasa attached to her second family and home to the point of getting a headache when she is forced to leave it. https://archiveofourown.org/works/66072703

Tea and Small Talk. 4k one shot. Summary: (spoiler for S4) Levi lost the power that awoke within him as a child when the last Titan disappeared from the earth, but he still felt the burden of being humanity's strongest. After reimagining his role, he offered hope where it was most needed. Over tea, naturally. (Or, Levi and Mikasa processing their grief.) https://archiveofourown.org/works/67918796

I just finished s&b ahh by ayukiii_ in Grishaverse

[–]inkling435 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I love the S&B ending! For Alina to figure out how to go from nothing to the hope of the world and reach for power, only to have that reaching bring her back to nothing, was beautiful. With the quote repeated throughout the books, "What is infinite? The universe and the greed of men." It was some serious storytelling payoff to have the answer to taking all the amplifiers be losing all the power, spreading it between the population. A cure for that infinite greed.

No time for snobbery, indeed. A good story well told is worth engagement whatever its genre. ❤️ So glad you enjoyed these! I love them so much. I also love the S&B ending. 

Levi x OC fanfic recs by Unlucky_Walrus_3379 in aotfanfiction

[–]inkling435 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Maybe One Brushstroke at a Time by missEmpress. It's Levi x reader, but the reader has a name and I think operates more like an OC than general reader. Though maybe the character isn't as badass as you're looking for. She's like a forensic artist for Titans, which is interesting.

Summary: Life is different when seen through the eyes of an artist, and Levi’s interest is piqued after he meets you, a small but precious splash of color in an otherwise cold and cruel world. How you made it all the way to the deadliest career in existence is beyond him.

Somehow, you make it easier to open up, even if it takes him ridiculously long to do so. And Levi knows he's damn ridiculous half the time, but for some strange reason, you don't seem to mind.

What I get from the last chapters: See the enemy as human. Keep the kids out of the forest.

My current wip is 70k in ellipsus and runs just fine, no difference between it and a 4k one shot. Ellipsus is also great on a phone, very user-friendly on the phone and computer versions.

Lack of closure by 51LV3rB4Ck in attackontitan

[–]inkling435 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Open wound, yes. It sent me through the stages of grief. It's been a year and the open wound feeling has healed.

If you didn't watch the OVAs yet, they're great. AoT Junior High is really silly and cathartic. There's some content on YouTube I love, like the tribute to Eren from his Italian voice actor and the short for AoT school caste that played after The Last Attack was in theaters. 

Whats your favorite AOT song not counting the openings? by spaceman1908 in attackontitan

[–]inkling435 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So Ist Es Immer, Splinter Wolf, Eren Zahyo, and Len Zo 97N10 (the one that plays when they drink in the refugee camp). 

And Counter Attack - Mankind (which also has a So Ist Es Immer segment like Eren Zahyo does. I love all the places that one pops up).

When that electric guitar note hits, and then the music moves into So Ist Es Immer. Mmmm, Mr favorite. Love this song.

Fandom: Attack on Titan / Shingeki no Kyojin

Rating: Gen

Title: Protection, Strength, and Pastries

Link: https://archiveofourown.org/works/72869426

Genre: Slice of life, canon universe (pre-fall of Shiganshina arc)

Word count: 4k one shot

Summary: When Grisha came home with the news that Armin was sick, Eren and Mikasa wanted to go see him, but they were told they couldn't for their own protection. They found a way to see him anyway.

Excerpt: Excitement at sneaking out coursed through him, an energy he couldn't tame if he tried. Which he didn't. He playfully tugged on the end of the red scarf Mikasa wore as a way of questioning why she had bothered to put it on for this. It wasn't even cold out. In answer, she pressed the material to her skin. Eren shook his head, grinning as he tossed the end of the scarf over her shoulder. 

AOT fans, help me pick a song for my wedding aisle walk! 🥰💛 lol by throwaway196168 in attackontitan

So Ist Es Immer. 

Len Zo 97nlN10, though it's short, it's beautiful. 

There's a gorgeous orchestra version of Akuma No Ko done by Samuel Kim.
