Summary
After failing to become a Warrior in his youth, all in hopes of saving his father’s life, Bertholdt followed a different path. Years later, his talented younger cousin, Udo, became a candidate in his stead. That was when things began to change.
The first time he’d come face to face with the beloved Warriors of Marley, they were just who he expected them to be. Unwavering, elegant, and cut from a mold of the ideal soldier.
He’d quickly come to realize he was wrong about them, particularly after getting to know the unit’s Vice Captain. What’s more, he was just as wrong about himself.

Summary
He and Danzo alone knew of his glaring weakness. Rather than living only in the present, only in the missions assigned to him, Kinoe allowed the past to haunt him. It showed in the thoughtless choices he made, in the fears he couldn’t let go of. Still, his mind stayed preoccupied.
His progress was too slow. The time to prove his worth was running out.
Following an attack on the Hidden Leaf, and a sudden change in leadership, he is sent on a new kind of mission.
Now, his last chance at success lay in the hands of a team of wild Genin and their peculiar teacher.

Summary
Bertholdt wasn’t one to receive love letters. Not that he minded.
He’d realized it years ago. His feelings grew too strong to ignore and too clear to question. He could get a thousand of the sappiest, sweetest letters in the world and it’d all pale in comparison to a single glance from his best friend.
Which was why he’d been so confused that morning, looking over the tasteful yellow stationery in his hands. Where did it come from? And, more importantly, what was he supposed to do with it?

Summary
There’s a letter on the counter.
It’s a lovely cream-colored envelope sealed with a bright red sticker. The shape of it stands out against the smooth grain of the island below a scattering of loose trinkets and assignments.

Summary
“Bertl…” Only a minute after Bertholdt has sat back down with his book, Reiner nudges him with his foot. He looks over, smiling when he sees a familiar pout. “I’m cold.”
Everyone would be shocked to know this side of Reiner, he’s sure. Not their cool, reliable older brother, but Bertholdt’s endlessly spoiled partner. Without a word, he slides underneath the blankets and curls up against his side.
Reiner closes his eyes in contentment, arm already wrapped around Bertholdt’s waist and pulling him in close. Just like a fussy — but ultimately happy — big cat.
“If you wanted to cuddle, you could have just said so, you know?”
———
Reiner and Bertholdt grow: — up, into themselves, older — but most importantly, together.

Summary
Bertholdt had never been so hyper-aware of anyone before, of anything. Most of the time, he tried hard to melt into the background and block out the world beyond his playlists and immediate friends and family. Not that he had many of either, so his list of “things to care about” was pretty short.
But somehow, Reiner Braun — unapologetically loud, eye-catching, kind-hearted, strong, attractive Reiner Braun — had taken the top spot.
And Bertholdt’s response?
Sew. A lot.
