    Summary

    Yan Wushi observed the changes in Shen Qiao’s expression, his own moving into something subtle. And rather unexpectedly, he softened his voice to say, “A-Qiao, don’t be too sad. Xie Ling may be gone, but this venerable one has to admit you’ve done me a great favour.”

    “Yan-zongzhu is overly gracious,” he replied curtly.

    “So even if Xie Ling is no longer here, this venerable one can feed you in his stead—”

    “Yan Wushi!” Shen Qiao suddenly burst out warningly. He couldn’t understand why the other man was bringing up Xie Ling over and over again. He’d done so a few times before in a mocking fashion, but today seemed especially excessive—and if Xie Ling was already long gone now, what was the point of still harping on this matter?

    Summary

    Roy’s done with the day’s appointments but hasn’t yet left for home by the time six o’clock rolls around, which is what allows Edward Elric to shoulder his door in, slope uninvited into his inner office and flump heavily into his couch.

    Bookmarker's Notes

    I have read. This entire series. So so so so so many times. And I'm desperately combing through the RoyEd tag in search of things that make me feel a little bit of the same. If I'm honest, this was a good deal of what dragged me into FMAB in the first place. Just. Top, 10/10.

    N+4 rereads :)

    Summary

    That’s just the thing, isn’t it? Wei Ying feels nothing. He doesn’t feel anything, and this emptiness should scare him. He knows he should be scared. He wants to be scared. He isn’t. Fear itself is never scary; fear is just a response. It means that your body wants you alive. It’s the absence of terror that scares him.
