#marley aot

[floorworm]

This page is my roman empire ive been thinking abt this all the time since reading it.

Like yeah Eren and the Shiganshina gang were only kids when wall Maria was breached, but so were the warriors. The marleyan warriors started training at the ages FIVE TO SEVEN. They were genuinely pre-adolescent, kindergarten aged children. Then they're given MASSIVE responsibilty and were shipped off to a titan infested island in the middle of the fucking ocean, with instruction to kill an entire society of people they had been brainwashed to believe were a race of devils. Thats not even mentioning that THEY THEMSELVES were a part of that race!!!

Like yeah, what they did was fucking abhorrent, BUT THEY WERE BRAINWASHED NINE YEAR OLDS!!! 😭

i find myself compelled to share (completely unsolicited) my aot au. gird your loins for a tangent

so i don’t care for the marley stuff. it’s not poorly written or what have you i just don’t like it. i firmly believe the story coulda stopped when they got to the ocean. eren be looking out like “there’s more out there”. cut. end credits. leave it open ended

but what of the suspicious marlean script? where did reiner and co come from? why is eren riddled with issues? unless you wanted to cut that shit out entirely, my brain came up with a thing

once again, i do not care for “the world is still alive” for aot. so instead all that shit is actually the royal family struggling to maintain their hold on the people through secret societies and fear. can’t recall to what extent it’s like that originally, but this makes them the big baddies. all the shit that happened in the past did happen, but everyone else genuinely perished. the walls are it

the royal family is behind the serum. some experimentation that gotta outta hand. im not sure if some extremists got a hold of it or if someone is just going on a wild power trip, but its a problem now. and it becomes more of a problem the more the corp gets involved. they really decided to fight fire with fire like bruh

they speak marlian cause it’s a dead language. like all those frat houses and secret societies that speak latin. ymir is still from the past but reiner and them are part of this rogue faction or what have ye

so i would change up the timeline a bit. they go to shiganshina but in the basement they find out everything (both the og reiss and ackerman timelines and my wild new shit) and decide to go fix that shit before the ocean. and they do. and it’s great. and eren gets his dramatic final line. end credits

but this time the final line doesn’t mean people, it means lakes of fire and plains of ice and jungles and canyons and obnoxiously flat places like kansas. it ties it all back to what armin said episode one

(also, bonus, eren doesn’t become a genocidal maniac in this version. seem good? neat)

if i did write anything it would probably be levi pov cause him, jean and armin are my boys but i consume far more eruri then jearmin in recent years. (this also means task one would be trying to figure out a way both armin and erwin could live). i also….haven’t really paid attention to anything since shiganshina. i barely paid attention to historia’s stuff and then i only know how shiganshina ended because when it was happening in the manga (yes it’s been that long) i was a moody preteen afraid of losing my favorite armin so i just made my sister tell me what happened

but if you’ve actually read this far let me know what you think?? is it too generic? or are you like me and was like, yo this do be the main cast these yeehaws gonna live? when you were first consuming le content how did you think it would end?

tbh i don’t know if i can really truly hate gabi. she’s just a product of marley’s brainwashing. in the end she comes to realize her mistakes which i can’t truly hate. sigh idk.

Marley!erwin vs Paradis!erwin

[joogios]

I wonder what they meant by that

[lesuerts]

Maybe unpopular opinion: I didn't want to have another spin-off of levi despite loving him very much.

This is what I wanted to have:

• hange's, miche/mike's and nanaba's past

• how petra and co were chosen to be levi's squad

• training of the warrior cadets (reiner and co gen) and more of them (especially galliard brothers)

• the 5 year gap where reiner and co were in paradis but what happened in marley (more of gabi, zofia, udo and falco; pieck and porco; colt and zeke (as mentor); or more of the situation of the eldia in marley)

• veteran trio (hange, erwin, miche/mike) or also with moblit and nile in the training corps and their first expedition outside (except nile ofc)

Just little short stories, a few chapters about that

[booksandmore]

my hot take is that if someone who knows nothing about aot watched the first few episodes of season 4, they would side with gabi over eren. because they’re the same fucking character.

⋆｡°🎧ྀི.⊹₊ ⋆ i have never mourned someone like i mourn eren. so focused on finding freedom, he didn’t see the freedom within him. eren, you angel, i will always mourn you.
