    Summary

    “I heard you, y’know.”
    Susie wheels around and they’re standing there. Slouched, hand on the side of their house like they’re about to fall over. Tired, corner of the mouth smirk on their face. Their voice is different, like Noelle was saying. It doesn’t have that stereo crawl under it. It’s a little sad, a little higher than lower, kinda scratchy. How Noelle had described their ‘normal voice.’
    But something is strange. Their face, it’s untensed somehow.
    Why do they look so sad?

    Summary

    They keep giving her these looks. Bite me kind of looks. Bleed me out kind of looks.
    Everything’s gotten bad. Susie knows Kris isn’t telling her something, isn’t telling her a lot of things, big things, things that suck the air out between them. But lately there is never much air between them at all.

    Summary

    Riz realizes that they might be non-binary.

    Obviously, the only way to deal with this realization is to break into Gorgug’s room at 2am.

    Summary

    There was a period of time both after and before the Lighthouse Bar. That is to say, after Buddy was dragged kicking and screaming from the Lighthouse's observation deck while her brain slowly turned to soup, and before she and Jet returned to the Cerberus Province for the grand reopening.

    This period of time, after Buddy and Jet's respective lowest points and before their lives begin to truly turn around for the better, is easily disregarded. They were self-styled nobodies, living nowhere, in the middle of a long and tedious and meandering process. This process could be called "healing" or perhaps "recovery", although both are rather too good at implying a smooth upward curve, a constant moving forward, a steady march of progress. One of these days Buddy will find the right word to describe it. She always does eventually.

    Summary

    Riza pauses. Their infrequent nights together often leave her with a sense of surreality. They don’t speak of their deeds the morning after, no domestically blissful breakfasts or even cups of coffee together; they usually don’t even see each other again until they’re both in the office, eyes hollow from sleep they’d lost together. She knows this is a line she shouldn’t cross.
    But she’s already crossed so many lines in her life.

    Written for Kinktober 2022 (happy New Year, lmfao, it's not 2022 anymore), Day 28. Prompt: grooming (like the cleaning/showering kind).

    Summary

    Some days, Riza could not help it. 

    She knew it was dangerous. She knew she was putting them both in the line of fire. And most of the time, she managed to resist temptation because she cared about him. His plan. His vision. It was much more important. He was more important. 

    And some days, she wanted to throw everything into the fire. Some days she thought, she felt in her gut, that she would happily face a firing squad if it meant that she would be allowed to once, just once again, feel his hands on her.

    Summary

    Alphonse turns to him with a nervous, small smile, and Ed, despite his wobbly mouth, pounds a fist against his puffed out chest, and shows his teeth.

    “Don’t worry,” he says. I’ll protect you, he keeps to himself. “There’s no way this’ll mess up! It’s pretty simple stuff, anyways.”

     

    Edward has a nightmare that he'll never wake up from.

    Summary

    Riza had been angry too, when she had let herself be, but hers is a cold ire, locked beneath glaciers and the burn of frostbite.

    Wrath makes no such pretences. Wrath answers to a dead woman’s name, and Officer – Lieutenant – Major Hawkeye holds her anger boiling right under the surface, scalds her hands in it and fires the next shot.


    (Not all that burns is fire. Or: Riza becomes Wrath.)

    Summary

    Roy pauses by a bench and grips one of its metal arms, leaning his weight on his right side. At the edge of the park he can see a telephone booth bathed under the light of a streetlamp. It’s right there. He could go in, for a moment. Make the call. How much worse could another bad decision make things?

    More importantly, would his Lieutenant be happy to hear from him?

    (Or, some time after Fuhrer Bradley takes everything away from him, Roy calls his Lieutenant.)

    Summary

    He knew he could do what he needed to do like this. It would be the hardest thing he’d ever done, but that had always been true. From that last day on the Ishvalan front when all he had was the conviction to protect the people he loved, he’d known the task ahead of him wasn’t an easy one.

    He wasn't going to let the simple matter of having his optic nerves torn out by god stop him.

    Summary

    Sophie had no hope of keeping up with Michael as he chased the star, even with her seven-league boot. He was a flail of limbs and a sploshy sound of madly running feet ahead of her, as the falling star streaked white down the sky. At the speed it had been going it should have hissed into the pools like a doused match long before he reached it, but now it slowed, as though it was moving through honey. She wrestled with her foot, stuck in the seven-league boot, as Michael stalked the star, a paper cutout against its stark white light.
    “What is it? What do you want?” she could hear it shrill, bobbling nervously.
    “I only want to catch you,” Michael explained. “I won’t hurt you.”
    “Get off, you stubborn thing,” Sophie muttered to the boot, and at last wrenched her foot free. She set off stumping toward Michael. The star stared at the boy with frantic, flickering blue eyes.
    “I could save you if you’d let me catch you,” Michael told it. His voice grew softer as he edged closer. “I know magic. Please—” he said, and then with one quick, darting motion, he closed his hands around it like a child catching a firefly.

    (in which michael is told to catch a falling star, and so he does.)
