Lostcauses Fic: Buenos Aires Hora Cero

It was such a pleasure to collaborate with the fabulously talented @seitsen-sarvi for @erurivacayzine. I've wanted to write a fic set in Buenos Aires forever and Marie's beautiful art captures the atmosphere perfectly 💕

Huge thanks to the mods for running this lovely project and for inviting us to contribute.

~~

The tango holiday to Buenos Aires had been Marie’s idea. She had come home from a night out waxing lyrical about a couple of friends who had recently taken up tango.

“It sounds wonderful, Erwin. They said it revitalised their relationship, I’ve never seen them look so happy! We should try it, please can we, darling?”

Erwin had agreed without hesitation, suggesting they sign up for classes at the local community centre, but Marie being Marie, had set her heart on a tango holiday to Buenos Aires. Despite his misgivings about the extravagant cost and his ability to dance, Erwin had been only too happy to agree. Anything to make Marie happy, no?

In hindsight, he should have recognised it for what it was; a last-ditch attempt to salvage a flagging relationship that had been on the rocks for well over a year. When Marie finally announced she wanted to end the relationship a month later, Erwin was deeply hurt but he wasn’t entirely surprised. He wasn’t blind, he could see it wasn’t working, that they weren’t making each other happy. The intimacy they’d once shared was a distant memory, he was just too much of a coward to admit it. What did surprise him was the speed with which Marie announced her engagement after a whirlwind romance with his erstwhile friend Nile. Unfortunately by the time they split up it was too late to cancel the holiday. Erwin gallantly offered both tickets to Marie and Nile as an engagement gift but she had curtly informed him that they were far too busy planning the wedding, and besides, Nile had no interest in something as trivial as learning tango.

“What am I going to do with two tickets for a dance holiday in Argentina?” he moaned to Mike. “I don’t know the first thing about salsa.”

“Tango,” Nanaba corrected him.

“See? I don’t even know the difference.”

“You should go anyway,” Mike encouraged him. “Buenos Aires is an incredible city.”

“And tango is so passionate,” Nanaba chipped in brightly. “Who knows you might even meet your soulmate!”

“That last thing I want right now is another relationship,” Erwin winced.

“You should go, a change is as good as a rest and all that. You could do with taking your mind off…things,” Mike finished tactfully.

Johnathan Joestar x Dio Brando from JJBA

First ship

Oh geeze..... that's going to be Usagi Tsukino x Michiru Kaio from Sailor Moon. I took one look at Sailor Neptune and suddenly had a ton of feelings I didn't know how to HANDLE.

Last song

"Bones" -- Casualties of Cool

Notable lyrics that put this on repeat:

"And when you’re tired and afraid I will hold you

Build you up, just to tear you apart"

"And when there’s nothing left burning inside you

Your bones will riddle the ground with the rest"

Last movie

Incantation (2022). It's a Taiwanese horror/found footage film my friend and I watched on a whim. While certainly not perfect, I found that I enjoyed it. It was quick to introduce horror elements and played well with the found footage genre. I liked the set design of the creepy village and not having knowledge of the rules. The film answers the question of "what would happen if you blatantly desecrated a ritual space?" At one point there was a film trick meant to play with your vision as a form of imprinting you (the viewer) with a blessing for what you were about to witness. It tied in cleverly with the entire metaphor of the movie and it was what made the movie particularly memorable for me.

Currently reading

Harrow County, a folk horror comic series created by Cullen Bunn and Tyler Crook. It's dark, visceral, and utterly tragic at times. It has themes of folk magic reminiscent of Old Gods of Appalachia. I only have the final volume left to read and I can't recommend it enough.

Currently watching

Mob Psycho 100 season 3, JJBA season 6. Recently finished Midnight Mass.

Currently consuming

Several different brands of sour gummies and all the skin on my fingers

Currently craving

Big bowl of pho broth

Yes.

The key difference is that Erwin is Handsome But Strange while Levi is Strange But Handsome

[momtaku]

Okay, Mom. I didn't want to have to do that, but you said you'd reply to everything. I have no choice but to state it now : flatasswin is a fallacy.

GASP!!! 

How dare!! 

Appearently “Delulu” isn’t just a shipping goat, my friend. Do you deny the very existence of chapter 57 and the canonical proof is contains??

The timing of @seitsen-sarvi’s miraculous return is super fortuitous because this gorgeous print of her work just arrived in the post yesterday. I’m so stoked to be able to follow her again (although at a new url) and it only slightly overshadows my excitement at being able to hold her art in my hands.

[lostcauses-noregrets]

I’m honoured to have been able to collaborate with the fabulously talented @seitsen-sarvi for the @erurivacayzine This is a fic I’ve wanted to write for so long and Marie has captured the intimacy and atmosphere so beautifully 💕

[project-zorthania]

@seitsen-sarvi I waited ever so patiently since pre-ordering your beautiful eruri pin for the perfect opportunity to wear it. Today, on my college convocation it lay very close to my heart both figuratively and literally. Thanks again for such an elegant piece!

[nohtora]

sorry i have to share this everywhere,,,,, so obsessed with these GORGEOUS black sails pins i just received from @seitsen-sarvi !!! tears in my eyes,,,,

[lostcauses-noregrets]

Hello! I know this is a very abstract question, but what are some objects or symbols that you associate with Levi or would say are representative of Levi in some way?

The tea cup and cravat are the most obvious objects associated with Levi. They both appear in countless official art and collabs, both with Levi himself and as symbols representing him. The bolo tie is Erwin's equivalent of course. Levi's cravat and Erwin's bolotie were given away together as special gifts along with the SnK volume 23 tankobon in Japan. And some folk wonder why we ship them 😂

The crossed swords and Wings of Freedom are also closely associated with Levi, though they are more representative of the Survey Corps as a whole. This pillow is a nice example of a design that incorporates all the symbols associated with both Erwin and Levi.

Fan artists also frequently use the bolo tie with the cravat or tea cup to represent Eruri in really creative ways. @seitsen-sarvi's Subtle Trust design is one of my favourites. I love this one so much I had it printed on fabric and made it into a skirt!
