Prologue: Rumors

Retelling of the classic tale of Rumpelstiltskin with our beloved SnK characters and a few twists and turns.

Jean, being a horseface as usual, blackmails Eren into talking to Mikasa, Lord Kenny's daughter. As fate would have it... Eren ends up claiming that he can spin straw into gold thread. Obviously he can't, and who else comes to his rescue? A short, grumpy, dark-haired man whom we all know and love.

Trapped between an impossibility and a hard spot, he ends up accepting the stranger's bargain, only to find that things aren't quite what they seem... including his growing desire for his dark-haired rescuer.
