Thank you Taniyama for conveing Jean's feelings for his three most beloved friends from the start till the very end of the series. We couldn't have asked for a better VA for Jean.

Sasha: *smirks* So, Eren, va-va-va-voom, huh?

Eren: What?

Connie: *wiggling his eyebrows* Last night, with Captain Levi.

Eren: *playing it cool* What are you talking about?

Sasha: Oh, oh, we get it, play dumb. We can play dumb.

Connie: *nods*

Jean: Play? You could manage the team.

Sasha: "Wow, really?"

Connie: "Atta boy, Jean!"

An Awfully Big Adventure

Opening snippet from an upcoming Connie/Jean/Sasha fic. Yes, this is helping me through the grieving process. 

I also noticed that this fearsome threesome only has between 35-50 fic on AO3 (at least that I can find, and probably even less with them as the primary pairing). I’ll single-handedly fill this tag if I have to!

This fic's gonna be called "An Awfully Big Adventure." It's canon divergent.

Summary: Levi inherits a bunch of acreage and hires his friends to help maintain it. It turns into an awfully big adventure. And also Jean, Connie, and Sasha fall in love. That's actually pivotal to the plot. They're all (24) in this fic.

A girl saying, “I think my pirate name would be Master Mollusk,” shouldn’t be attractive. In fact, Connie’s starting to question whether he’s hormonally imbalanced when Sasha dances her way towards him saying exactly that, and his body flushes hot regardless. He might just be in love and he’ll never admit that this was the phrase that tripped him up.

Swiping his sweaty forehead with the back of his hand, Connie calls back, "Does that mean I'm Prickly Prawn?" 

He’s standing in a field that belongs to Levi. Yes, that Levi. An old colleague who'd somehow inherited a mass of acreage from his grandmother and asked for help maintaining it in exchange for food. Connie'd gotten a job at a market last year expecting it to dead end, yet this year he was chopping down trees and getting paid handsomely (in food and cash) for his efforts.

Funny how that all works.

“I think Prickly Prawn might be reserved for Levi. But Captivating Clam is still available?” Sasha smiles, huffing as she closes the remaining distance between them and drops snacks at Connie's feet. Always with the food. There are pouches of juice and a few tied off bags of fruit. There are also cheese and cracker packs that Connie loves. This has got Hange written all over. Levi would never.

"Damn. Thanks, Sash."

"Master Mollusk," Sasha corrects gently. "And don't thank me. Thank Hange." Ah, there it is. "Well, Jean too. He helped sneak some cheese and cracker packs from Levi's secret stash."

Connie laughs with his whole chest. "Wow. Okay. Well tell him that I'm grateful, but if he really wants to get my attention he can bring his ass out here and chop some wood with me."

Sasha smirks. She tilts her head and gives Connie that look. The one that makes her seem much younger than the twenty-four years her body has already given her. It's a playful look; something whimsical and beautiful, and with her hair in a neat little bun on top of her head and Hange's glasses perched on her nose, she's quite possibly the most impish little thing Connie's ever seen.

"Nobody told you to come out here and chop wood at lunch time, you big corn husk. Save that for the morning."

SPRINGLESTEIN MY BELOVED!!! 😭😭🩷🩷🩷🩷🩷

[shermalysed]

I'm so proud of you, guys

[ibettertakethisoffshelby]

Sasha: Connie! Did you know you can buy monkeys?! Look at this: "For sale, one vervet monkey, $1500. Call Dwayne."

Connie: 1500 for a monkey?

Sasha: Monkeys are a delicacy, Connie. Do you think they just grow on trees or something?

Connie: Well... they do grow in trees...

Sasha: So you're saying monkeys are fruit... Yeah, that is expensive for fruit.

Jean: *bangs his head against the wall*

Who would the veterans and eren mikasa and armin godly parents from pjo be?

Answering these two asks after 81 years of them fermenting in my ask box because- well I don't even have an excuse. Sorry anons, hope you're still out there in the shadows of my blog and you get to see this

Have a messy art of Levihan and EMA as campers. They're all babies, because demigods are babies

My take on this, under the cut because I wrote more than intended

- Hange, Child of Hephaestus: because, yeah, it's Hange. They are curious, they like building stuff. Plus I can totally see Hange with fire powers.

- Levi, Child of Hades: because Levi is definitely a child of one of the Big Three, he's special, he's powerful. And he reminds me of Nico, all brooding but so soft on the inside and full of trauma. Give these boys a hug. Oh and the fact that Levi's from the underground just really fits.

- Eren, Child of Poseidon: I know, I know, Eren being Eren would probably be a Child of Ares with war and stuff but- I just- listen to me. Poseidon is the god of earthquakes as well. Rumbling, oh yeah. And I know the ocean was more of Armin's dream and all the symbolism, but Eren wanting to go and see the ocean... I don't know, in my mind his Godly parent is Poseidon.

- Armin, Child of Athena: not much to say, Goddess of wisdom and war strategy. Armin's smart, strategic, always got a plan. Alternatively, I've thought of him being a child of Aphrodite, and I don't dislike the idea.

- Mikasa, Child of Athena: I'm kinda lost with her but I like to think she's the other side of the coin. Like, the part of Children of Athena that's pure talent for arms and battles. Because Mikasa is pure talent for battle, but I feel she lacks the aggressiveness of Ares children.

- Erwin, Child of Zeus: yes I know he can be another child of Athena but his confidence, his presence, his leading abilities. Just big Zeus vibes I get from him.

- Mike, Child of.... Well I like him being a child of Apollo like anon suggested, and it fits my headcanon of Mike. But, I feel canon Mike would probably be a Child of Ares.

- Moblit, Child of Apollo: I really like the idea of him being able to heal. Also, he's a talented artist and a ray of sunshine.

- Nanaba, Child of Demeter: I really love what anon suggested. Totally with them on this one.

Addittionally, have Springlestein

- Jean, Child of Hermes: I don't really have an explanation. I just feel he would be a son of Hermes. Maybe it's just that Jean feels so incredibly human to me, and children of Hermes do too.

- Sasha and Connie, children of Dyonisus: they're siblings your Honor. Nothing else to add.

cross posted on ao3!

The cool October air seeps through your skin, sending a small shiver down your spine. The trees have already turned several vibrant hues of orange, red, and yellow. A leaf falls softly to the ground beside you, snapping you out of your thoughts as it gently graces the ground. 

The memories of the most recent mission flood your brain. Several deaths and many casualties, but successful nonetheless. You sigh, leaning your back against the tree that you had been sitting against. You look up at the setting sun along the horizon, admiring the colors painting the sky nearby. 

A leaf crunches under someone’s boot, and you turn your head to the sound, revealing the ash-haired man standing next to you. The familiar face smiles down at you.

“Mind if I take a seat, m’lady?” Jean says teasingly. He’s always been quite the jokester, no matter the time or place.

“Not at all, kind sir,” you snort in response. The air sways the trees nearby, almost as if they were waving a small hello to you. Jean sits down quickly as he wears that stupid smug smirk that he’s adorned for several years. 

“How you doin’?” he asks quietly. There was something a bit different about his tone now, something softer and more caring.

“Just thinking. Y’know, about the mission and whatnot,” you say quietly. Something about the mission was… weird. Something nagged at you, clawing at your chest and heart, but you can’t quite put your finger on it.

Jean stays quiet for a moment, his previous smug smirk now replaced with a blank expression, nearly unreadable. A flicker of concern shows in his eyes, but you hardly catch it.

“You aren’t the best liar,” he states matter of factly. “Come on, talk to me. I’m not just a pretty face,” he smiles at you teasingly. 

You chuckle softly. Jean wasn’t just a pretty face. He had been nothing but a phenomenal friend, consistently putting in effort and checking on you.

“Something about that mission. Something is wrong with it,” you admit quietly. As the memories fade into your mind again, you feel a slight pit in your stomach, unsure of how to put off the unease.

“What about it?” Jean asks curiously.

You pause for a few moments, unsure of how to put your thoughts into words. To be honest, you weren’t really sure. Something was different about it, something big. Some big part of the puzzle was missing, and your mind was screaming at you to find it.

“I don’t know,” you admit quietly, sucking in a sharp breath. The cool air infiltrates your lungs, providing a solid relief for a moment.

Jean stays quiet, looking along the horizon at the almost set sun. He’s slowly piecing his thoughts together, just like a puzzle.

“You don’t know?” He asks quietly.

“I don’t.”

Jean pauses for another moment, his expression still blank and unreadable. He speaks up after a minute, the words quiet and almost mumbling.

“That’s okay.”

You chuckle softly. While Jean was almost entirely a man of jokes, there was something different about this conversation, a more caring side to him.

“It’s okay not to know,” He adds softly.

You turn to look at him, your eyes gazing over  the features of his face, more specifically, the stubble forming on his face.

“You need to shave,” you joke teasingly.

“Way to ruin the sappy moment! Jeez, I was really trying to help!” Jean exclaims, feigning offense and raising his hands in defense.

You can’t help but laugh, gently elbowing him.

“You did help, don’t worry.” It wasn’t a lie. Something about his presence made you feel protected, like an older brother.

Jean smiles at you softly, “Glad to help, told you I’m not just a pretty face.”

You snort again, smiling as you look at the rising moon. The nagging feeling in your chest has subsided. Even if for just a bit, the pit has turned full, leaving you content as you watch the horizon.

[daleelahwrites]
