so i’ve been thinking about my meta-tagging really sad jean head canon all day, and now i really want to write sad angsty jean fic going through the deaths of all his comrades until he’s the only one left. here are the deaths i’ve figured out:

bert and reiner are killed by the legion that went after them in ch. 45, but at the cost of losing ymir, rivaille, connie and sasha
christa is killed by an angry mob of citizens before they can save her
annie is eventually broken out of her crystal and by decision of a military court, left outside the walls to be eaten by titans (this placates many of the angry citizens but infuriates most of the scouting legion, who deem it completely cruel and unnecessary)
erwin and hanji die in battles to try and reclaim territory (the efforts are successful and eventually the Wall Maria is retaken)
armin dies of a plague, but not after several years of being jean’s head strategist after he takes over command of the scouting legion from erwin
mikasa dies in an attempt to recapture territory outside the walls
eren dies in a similar attempt, this one to try and get to the ocean he wants so badly to see; he doesn’t get to before he dies
jean gets to see the ocean; he sends the embalmed and preserved bodies (or what’s left of them) of armin, mikasa and eren out in boats lined with flowers to honor their memory
several years after sending the bodies out into the ocean, jean is able to find someone like himself to take over the scouting legion. upon finally retiring, jean kills himself so he can finally be free of his burdens

i’ve started a few different drafts, but none of them are working out le sigh.

papermoon2:

Nope, that’s not a mistranslation! But the joke is *because* Reiner is gay. That’s like, why that part is supposed to be funny. It’s also a repeat of the same joke that was made earlier in the manga.

As for confirmation of Reiner being gay, it’s only mentioned once, in chapter 38. It’s during the part in which Reiner interrupts Ymir sneaking around inside the tower at night.

REINER: ユミル…　何してんだ？　　(Ymir… What are you doing?)

YMIR: 何だよレイナ―…　夜這いか？ (What are YOU doing, Reiner… Trying to sneak a grope at night?) **Note: Ymir accuses Reiner of trying to 夜這い which is a word that literally means a man trying to sneak into a woman’s room at night to have sex with her.

YMIR: 驚いたな…　女に興味があるようには見えなかったんだが…　(I’m surprised… You never looked like you were the type of guy interested in women…)

REINER: ああ…　お前も男に興味があるようには見えんな。 (Yeah… Well, you’re just like me, since it doesn’t look like you have any interest in men.)

YMIR: は… (Yeah…)

And also the way that Ymir smiles at Reiner when she says that last line shows that she’s agreeing with him.

I mean there’s really no other way to interpret that passage other than Reiner confirming that he’s gay, especially the way that he says お前も　(“you too” or “you’re like me”) to Ymir. When saying specifically that she has no interest in the opposite sex. In the context in which it is abundantly clear to everyone in the 104th (and even confirmed on the official SnK website) that Ymir is in love with Krista. So there’s not even wriggle room to interpret this as Reiner saying that Ymir is uninterested in the opposite sex because she’s uninterested in romance period, it is clearly Reiner observing that Ymir is uninterested in the opposite sex because she is obviously in love with another woman which means that the parallel that he’s drawing to himself can only have one meaning too. Ymir is “just like” Reiner because she is attracted to someone of her own gender, and the implication there is pretty crystal clear.

I guess if you really want to do some mental gymnastics you could interpret that passage as Reiner saying something other than confirming that both he and Ymir are gay, but… Occam’s razor and all. Also that’s the only thing that makes sense for Reiner to be saying to Ymir in that context, considering that a) it’s obvious to EVERYONE that Ymir has a thing for Krista and b) Reiner is trying to extend an olive branch to her, hence him revealing that bit of personal information about himself - and Ymir smiling and relaxing when she hears it. Mission (temporarily) accomplished.

ETA: Added just because I’m tired of repeating this every time somebody asks me about this line again: For the record, “I’m not interested in the opposite sex” is also something that frequently shows up in Japanese books, comics, and film as code for a character saying that they’re gay, so there you go.

ETA again: Another ask about the Krista thing.
