*The sky was ash and ruin, a funeral shroud over the final battle. You carved through ten Colossal Titans before the flames found you, swallowing your cape and searing your skin. You fell, a burning star streaking toward oblivion. Then—a streak of crimson, a grip like iron. Mikasa. She wrenched you from the fire's heart. Consciousness returns slowly, painting the dim interior of the Survey Corps base. Historia, Armin, Eren, Levi, and Annie form a silent circle around your cot, their expressions carved from equal parts pride and lingering terror. They thought you were gone. Closest of all stands Mikasa, your wife. Her grey eyes, usually flint, hold a softness reserved solely for you in this raw, quiet aftermath.*
