Attack on Titan/Ships

AruFuro
 AruFuro is the slash ship between Armin Arlert and Floch Forster.

Canon
Floch is shown to dislike Armin during the ceremony in honor for the fallen scouts when he was chosen to receive the titan serum instead of Erwin. It's unknown of Armin's opinion of Floch, despite this Floch is shown to not hold a strong hatred against Armin.

They first meet when Armin is shown to be dying as his body is burnt due to his sacrifice in order to distract the former Colossal Titan user, Bertolt. Not only Armin is dying but also the former Survey Corps commander, Erwin Smith as his organs were demolished from the charge against the Beast Titan which Floch was apart from and the only survivor. As Levi decides who should eat Bertolt, Floch advocated it should be Erwin, meanwhile Mikasa and Eren opposed this and thought Armin was a much better idea. Armin is chosen instead of Erwin and this leaves Floch with survivor guilt from the charge, Floch is even shown sadden and even questions Captain Levi on his choice.

During the ceremony for the fallen soldiers Armin tells Floch that he understood how much he wanted to Erwin to live, but Floch criticizes Armin for being the one chosen, with his honesty, Floch tells Armin that most of the military agreed that Erwin should've been saved instead of Armin as his survival was a mistake as written on the report for the battle. The argument continued between Floch and the scouts until it was time for the nine survivors to receive medals from Historia.

In the time skip, it's most likely that Floch doesn't hold a grudge against Armin anymore.

Fanon
The ship has mixed reactions amongst both fans of Armin and Floch due their differences. Some fans think that it was wrong for Floch to tell Armin he should've been dead in front of his face and that it breaks the relationship's potential. Others find the honesty of the statement refreshing and even think that it makes the ship more attractive, enjoying the potential of the Enemies to Lovers trope.

This ship currently rivals Eremin and Fleren, which both are very popular slash ships for the two.

EreHisuFloch
 EreHisuFloch is the poly ship between Eren Jaeger, Historia Reiss and Floch Forster.

Canon
Both Historia and Floch were the only ones who were wary of Eren's true plan, and that was to bring ruins to the world with the rumbling. Both Historia and Floch acted as shocked with the plan that'll kill millions in the process, with Historia even telling Eren it was wrong as there are people outside the walls who were like his mother. Before learning about Eren's true plan, Floch overhears Eren and Yelena's conversation with explaining of Zeke's true plan. Zeke's plan contained of the euthanizing of the Eldian race, Eren tells Floch to pretend to follow Zeke so they can reach their true goal.

With the knowledge of Eren's true intention, the plan begins. Historia gets pregnant by a farmer, but Historia is currently in the process of giving birth. While Historia is pregnant, Floch begins to gather allies to help with Eren's plan, as he gathers allies the group full of allies will soon be known as the Yeagerists/Jaegerists. Floch is later killed by Mikasa and Eren is soon after beheaded by Mikasa, stopping the rumbling. In the final chapter it's revealed that the living Yeagerists have taken over Paradis as they went from a rebel group to an army as Historia mentions.

Junior High Manga
With Floch and Historia having no direct interaction on the main story, except the fact the two were in the same class and Historia honoring both Floch and Eren for their bravery. But the two are shown interacting in Junior High Manga. Most of the time the two mangas have a sort of connection with each other as Junior High makes references to the main story. Both Floch and Historia stay back from entering Marley Academy, which is also the same in the main story as Floch did not attend the meeting with Kiyomi in Marley, so it's most likely that Eren asked Floch to stay of guard of Historia while Eren went to Marley with the other Survey Corps members.

Fanon
It's known among the fandom that the trio is somewhat 'cold' due to their drastic change in personality, there currently aren't written works on Archive of Our Own but there are fanarts of the trio.

However there are some theories that Eren must've sent Floch to tell Historia how the Military Police wanted to feed Zeke to Historia as soon as possible and told her to get pregnant immediately, but some believe Eren is the hooded person himself. Some fans joke that Floch is the father of Historia's baby.

The poly ship is mainly shipped by those who ship Eren and Historia. After the release of the Chapter 139 most fans abandoned this trio due to Eren's choice in the rumbling.

ErwinBasement
 ErwinBasement is the cargo ship between Erwin Smith and the basement. AKA: Erubae

Canon
The basement refers to the one in Grisha Jaeger's house, where secrets of the Titans and the world are hidden. Erwin is the son of a history teacher inside the walls. One day, his father is teaching his class, and he asks, “How do we know that there are no humans outside the walls?” In reponse, his father gives a short answer. His father believes it is near impossible for humanity not to have passed down an oral history.

Upon hearing this, a young and naive Erwin shares all about his father’s theory, and due to this, his father is tortured and killed for having this information. From that day forth, Erwin never forgot and his entire goal to join the Survey Corps was based upon proving his father right.

Later in life, Erwin meets Eren Jaeger and finds out he has the key to the basement. During the return to Shiganshina, he and Levi Ackerman and are found in a hopeless situation. Erwin confesses all of his most intimate feelings about the basement and his desire to prove his father's theory. Erwin moves forward with his plan, however ultimately he is not able to reach his dream. His last words have something to do with the basement once again, as he repeats the question he asked to his father in the classroom.

Erwin later confesses all of his most intimate feelings about the basement and his desire to prove his father's theory to Levi, and at last Erwin moves forward with his plan, however ultimately he is not able to reach his dream since Levi failed killing the Beast Titan and 96% of all the tropes were killed. His last words have something to do with the basement once again, as he repeats the question he asked to his father in the classroom.

Fanon
Due to Erwin's dream being all about finding his father's theories were true from visiting the basement, fans have joked about this a lot of times, but due his "obsession" with it, it makes this more of a meme within the fandom. Although some other fans have also made very lengthy and thoughtful analyses of Erwin's relationship to the basement. These same fans headcanon Erwin's reaction to the basement as a mixture between relief for the fact his dad's theories were true, and sadness for all the lives that had been lost to get to that moment.

Some fans accuse Erwin of being "obsessed" with the basement, to the point of being selfish, but some other fans point out the fact this is not true, since Erwin never viewed the deaths of his comrades lightly, and he just wanted to reveal the truth of Humanity's history that his father told him was in the basement.

HitLowe
 HitLowe is the het ship between Hitch Dreyse and Marlowe Freudenberg. AKA: Dreberger, Marlitch

Canon
Hitch and Marlowe are shown to be opposite from each other as Hitch can be quite immature and only joined the Military Police for her benefit, meanwhile, Marlowe joined for a different reason as he wanted to stop corruption in the military and do what's right and serve justice.

The first interaction we see from them is when Annie went with the other Military Police cadets and Mitch made fun of her for arriving late, which Marlowe kind of scolds Hitch for doing it, telling that they should be more united since both girls share the same room.

During the Female Titan arc, Marlowe watches a few high-rank Military Police officers illegally sell their equipment to the market in which Marlowe decides to stand up as he believed it was morally wrong to sell items that the people paid with their taxes which soon results in him getting beat from the higher ranks before Hitch has to intervene and apologize on Marlowe's behalf.

In the Uprising Arc the two are assigned a position to hunt down the remaining Survey Corps as they were called felons and the two were responsible to catch them and bring them for punishment, The two are then ambushed by the two Ackermans by taking away their weapons and uniform which Hitch gets very angry blaming the scouts for the destruction in Stohess and that they're responsible for the 'death' of former Military Police officer Annie Leonhart, in which the two are both told Annie isn't dead and instead she's the reason why many people died, which both Marlowe and Hitch respond by being shocked.

The Survey Scouts (Connie and Sasha specifically) would tease Marlowe when he transferred from the Military Police to the Survey Corps by telling Marlowe that didn't Hitch stop Marlowe from joining the scouts that they're  'y'know what' implying they might think Marlowe and Hitch are in a relationship, completely oblivious Marlowe doesn't understand what they were talking about. The scouts then proceed (except Mikasa and Eren) to call Marlowe an idiot implying that he doesn't realize that Hitch might be in love with him/have a crush on him.

Before Marlowe's death his final moments were him thinking about Hitch and wondering how she might be still sleeping in but in reality, Hitch was worried and waiting for him to return home safely. Hitch reunites with the Survey Corps and asked them about how did Marlowe fight, since she already knew he died. Floch told her he fought bravely, making Mitch smile a little bit, but Floch later told her that Marlowe’s face at his end looked like he regretted being there, making Hitch really sad. She later went with her brigade with a depressed face, showing us it really hurt her Marlowe’s departure.

Fanon
HitLowe isn’t very popular within its fandom since both characters don’t have many appearances together, but it has its decent amount of fans since they care and protect each other, like when Hitch knocked out Jean to save Marlowe but Jean was only testing their trust, or when an official was going to hit Marlowe and Hitch got to intervene to protect him.

Many fan theorists believe that they truly might've have feelings for each other but sadly couldn't tell each other. Majority of the fans of this ship believed during Marlowe's moments that might've been Marlowe realizing he was in love with Hitch but the same time regrets it because he fell in love too late when he went to sacrifice alongside others of the Survey Corps to the Beast Titan, as he was thinking of Hitch. Even after Marlowe's death most fans believed that Hitch still had feelings for Marlowe and struggles to move on from him, since it’s shown she was thinking of him and waiting him to come back savely. Even if they didn’t have many screentime together due both are minor characters, this ship became quite popular for both Hitch and Marlowe.

The rival ship is HitchAnnie, but this is only for the femslash side with Hitch. On AO3, HitLowe is the most written ship for both Hitch and Marlo. Reddit user YakiBacki also made jokes about HitLowe with Hitch grieving her love loss.

Trivia

 * In Episode 4 of the third season, both Marlowe and Hitch reveal they aren't each other types, however it's most likely Hitch was being sarcastic as Marlowe told Hitch she wasn't his type first due to her teasing him when they were alone in the forest.
