Summary
Werner chooses not to die. Nothing gets better; nothing will ever, really, get better, because he has set the world on fire at the behest of others- but he is tired of living in a way that matters. And he cannot believe that giving his life will ever be enough to atone for his sins, so he lives on, shamefully, not for nation or glory or penance, but for himself.
or like it says in the tags: doomed, but a little less doomed than before

Summary
They talk about her grandfather’s broadcasts. They talk about their hometowns. They slide their fingers on the inside of a peach can and let the fruits slip down their throat. Marie-Laure had this dream before. She knows how it will end; she remains still, for when she wakes up her world will be in darkness again.
The peaches taste as nice as the first time she ate them.
***
The events leading up to Marie-Laure and Jutta's meeting and after, and Werner is a wandering ghost.

Summary
During the evacuation of Saint Malo, Marie-Laure convinces Werner to accompany her as a refugee, hoping that they can pass him off as a French refugee.
Platonic relationship between Marie and Werner. This might turn into a compilation of some one shots too, but I'm not exactly good at making commitments so no promises.

Summary
Werner is a thousand little betrayals that deserve penance— this he knows to be true; the foreboding dread settles into his stomach like molten lead. His sins will pile up. They will matter.
But if Werner is a thousand little betrayals, Frederick is a thousand little rebellions. He is loyal to his beliefs, enduring wound after wound and yet still holding onto his morality with the iron grip that few hands scraped so bloody can have.
Frederick is a thousand little rebellions that deserve recompense. If Werner’s sins will be returned to him, made to matter, let it be that Frederick’s devotions will be rewarded.In the morning light, a sinner, so unused to praying that his hands are clumsy and his prayers sloppy, prays for another’s salvation.
Let it matter, Werner implores. Let it matter.

Summary
Werner Pfennig will not rest until he makes it home to Saint-Malo, to the girl with the beautiful eyes.
Aka I hate when endings are left up in the air so until Netflix gives me my second season this is the canon ending to the show. Sorry I don't make the rules.
