Cold Aches And Pains by RoryMarx (AuroraKant)

13 Oct 2022

Summary
Ed fought and cursed and strived for an unreachable goal, their sins suffocating him since he was the brother who needed to breathe.
All the while Al laughed and chided in good cheer, never changing, since he was the brother who couldn’t sleep – maybe couldn’t even age.
There was only one path forward, and Al could see how it slowly broke them.
What is it like to forget how to feel? Alphonse has been inside the armor for almost four years, when a mission forces him to face the realities of his situation.

Summary
"Fullmetal—?" Mustang begins. A question in his voice. He probably wasn’t expecting Edward to come in, what with the rain and all. But Edward cuts him off, his brain circling.
"Where's Hawkeye?"
Mustang opens his mouth. But Edward's gaze snags on the medical kit, and the anxiety that flares in his chest is sudden and unreasonable and very, very familiar.
"Where's Hawkeye?" he repeats, frantic.
"Relax," Mustang says. "She has a fever. She’s been home—she's fine."
Fever. Edward registers the word. Registers the date, too, the way it sits at the back of his mind like something with weight. He doesn't feel relieved.
Or; Hawkeye is sick, and Edward can’t see anything else but the pale, fevered face of his mother and decides he won’t let it happen again.

Summary
"The North?" Edward asked incredulously, gaping at the order.
"Yes, Fullmetal, the North. There's an outpost fifty kilometers from the Drachman border, and the previous person stationed there has taken an abrupt leave for around a month or so. Führer Bradley himself has ordered that you see to looking after it until around January when she comes back from her leave." Mustang looked at him with slight irritation over his stack of neglected and overdue paperwork, as if he couldn't believe Edward was angry over being sent halfway across the country.

(“Winry.”
“Hm.”
“What would you say if I asked you to pierce my ears?”It’s quiet for a second. There’s a thump, like she’s dropped something. Winry opens a drawer, shuts it again, and within a minute, she’s advancing on Ed with a needle between her fingers and an utterly predatory look on her face, as if she’s gone hunting, and she’s just spotted her prey.)
or: In which the Fullmetal Alchemist adds just a little more metal to his body.

Cut Short by holleighgram

Summary
Al’s mind went to exactly where he knew his brother’s train of thought would arrive.
“It’s only hair; it’ll grow back.”
He mentally crossed his heart, hoping his typically brash and emotionally dismissive older brother would refrain from voicing that (logical) platitude aloud.
Snip.
Ed finished, brushing the loose strands off her back.
“It’s just a little shorter,” he took a step back. “No one is even going to notice!”
Well, that was a lie, Al knew.

In Al's defense, the only thing he had cut short was the moment.Series

Summary
“Damn, kid,” he said, easing himself up onto his knees and biting back a wince when the movement pulled on the bullet hole in his side. “You really got him good.”
Ed didn’t respond. A tiny, hurt sound reached his ears, nearly drowned out by the rain, and he raised his head, finally turning to his subordinate, who had yet to get up from the ground.
The kid’s eyes were wide, usually bright, golden irises dulled by an unnerving haze, and glued to the man bleeding out in front of them; his tan skin had taken on a pale, sickly hue, a tremor shook his hands that he knew could have nothing to do with the cold-
And Roy’s stomach dropped.
Ed-
Ed didn’t kill people.
Ed had never and could never take a human life.

Summary
It was truly a disaster.
Winry had thought she’d never see this level of destruction again after the adventures of her youth, but the derailed train and the destroyed carriages truly showcased that horrible things didn’t just happen to people trying to save the world. They happened to normal people as well. Travelers and workers and scientists and little kids on their way to visit their grandparents.
“Holy fucking shit…” Paninya whispered next to her, and Winry couldn’t agree more.
Winry and Paninya volunteer as first responders when tragedy strikes Rush Valley - but it's not just strangers waiting for Winry in the wreckage.

Roy could power a tank with the frantic pounding in his chest. “Edward asked me to teach him to dance. Formally. For his wedding.”
“Oh,” says Riza. It sinks in, realization dawning like the sun cresting the mountainside. “Oh, that is a problem.”
Or: the one where Roy asks Riza to teach him to dance so that he can teach Edward, and it’s all hopeless from there.

Summary
‘‘I used to think Fullmetal was a crude nod at your prosthetics…’’
Roy Mustang’s words were laced with a thoughtful hum, and Edward tried not to feel hurt by the misassumption. Many heard his title and assumed it came down to his automail arm and leg. Ed had just hoped the Colonel – after everything – would’ve been different; that Mustang would’ve looked past Edward’s ill-fitting uniform and cripplingly-heavy automail and only see him as a person.
‘‘But,’’ Mustang continued, pensive, ‘‘I think they spelled your title wrong. You’re not Fullmetal, you should be Fullmettle. As in, you are full of mettle.’’
Edward blinked, utterly baffled.
‘‘Mettle, kid. M-E-T-T-L-E.’’
Mustang spelled it out for him. Literally. A genuine smile tugged at the Colonel’s lips as he rumbled out a fleeting chuckle, affectionately sweeping a hand over the top of Edward's golden crown. The boy's throat constricted as an annoying warm blur suddenly invaded his vision. He had experienced more kind words and actions under this man’s brief command than he had experienced in a long, long time.
It was just a shame that it was only a temporary arrangement.
