STATUS: complete, 905 words
AUTHOR: traineecorps at AO3
SUMMARY: she just leaves and never looks back.
RATING: Teen & up
SHIPS: Annie/Bertholdt
STATUS: complete, 905 words
COMMENTS: I don't read a lot of het fics, much less Annie/Bertholdt, but this one was sweet and sad.
2) TITLE: maybe it's the heat in here
AUTHOR: ifnotwinter at AO3
SUMMARY: "I'm not gay," Jean tells him.
"Your dick was in my ass," Eren points out. "You're a little gay."
Or how Eren and Jean are definitely, completely, totally virgins, copious amounts of ridiculous sex with each other notwithstanding.
RATING: Explicit
SHIPS: Jean/Eren
STATUS: complete, 3726 words

RATING: Explicit
SHIPS: Jean/Eren
STATUS: complete, 3726 words
COMMENTS: Originally a kinkmeme fill, this fic is essentially literal gold for anyone looking for some cracky Jean/Eren smut.
3) TITLE: girl, i've never loved one like you
AUTHOR: silversnaffle at AO3
SUMMARY: Ymir and Historia meet while running cross-country.
RATING: Teen & up
SHIPS: Ymir/Historia
STATUS: complete, 695 words
AUTHOR: silversnaffle at AO3
SUMMARY: Ymir and Historia meet while running cross-country.
RATING: Teen & up
SHIPS: Ymir/Historia
STATUS: complete, 695 words
COMMENTS: Ymir/Historia is my personal OTP, but I think I'd like this fic even if it wasn't. Perfect for someone looking for a sweet, short oneshot.
4) TITLE: Spit on a Stranger
AUTHOR: Steve at AO3
SUMMARY: Levi finds a hostile, freckly teenage lesbian on the street. Naturally, he takes her home with him. “Jeez. And the award for Surliest New Family goes to...”
RATING: Teen & up
SHIPS: Hange/Levi/Erwin, (eventual) Ymir/Historia
STATUS: incomplete, 3969 words so far

SUMMARY: Levi finds a hostile, freckly teenage lesbian on the street. Naturally, he takes her home with him. “Jeez. And the award for Surliest New Family goes to...”
RATING: Teen & up
SHIPS: Hange/Levi/Erwin, (eventual) Ymir/Historia
STATUS: incomplete, 3969 words so far
COMMENTS: The good news: This fic has a ton of potential! The bad news: It hasn't been updated since the first chapter was posted in December. But it was too good not to recommend, so here it is. Not a lot of shipping yet beyond what is implied and what is indicated in the tags.
5) TITLE: The Creator and the Master
AUTHOR: Island_of_Reil at AO3
SUMMARY: When a pawn becomes queen, things may not end well for the one who put her in play.
RATING: Mature
SHIPS: Gen, but implied Ymir/Historia
STATUS: complete, 2347 words

SUMMARY: When a pawn becomes queen, things may not end well for the one who put her in play.
RATING: Mature
SHIPS: Gen, but implied Ymir/Historia
STATUS: complete, 2347 words
COMMENTS: Unlike anything I've read before, this fic focuses on the idea that Levi and Historia's roles will eventually be reversed, with Historia coming to power. After chapter 56, I've seen a few people talking about this concept, and I was very glad to see someone write it. One of my personal favorites on this list.
