Summary
All Riza knew was that the constant pricking of the needle hurt more than anything she had ever experienced in all her fourteen years, more than when the girls at the schoolhouse with their white ruffled dresses and perfectly pinned curls laughed at her boyish looks and ill-fitting clothes.
More than the time on a frigid winter day she had tried to cut firewood but instead sliced away a chunk of her skin.
More than, well maybe not more than when Roy Mustang abruptly left for the military academy. Leaving her completely and utterly alone with a father who had no issue with treating his daughter as though she was nothing more than a piece of paper.Or
Riza receives the tattoo that will change her life forever.

Summary
“So, what are you going to ask for when you win the Walk?” Clementine asked him, drowsy in bed.
“Dunno,” Hank said. “Maybe a fighter plane. That’d be pretty cool. Or an orgy.”
Clementine pushed herself up. “An orgy?”
“Sure.” Hank grinned as he watched the idea settle into her mind. “A hundred naked ladies and me. Be pretty sweet.”
“Henry Olson, you can wish for your hundred naked ladies and you will find not one of them is hotter than me. You’ll be disappointed.”
...
Clementine drives Olson up to Maine for the Long Walk.

Summary
"Cicadas spend the vast majority of their seventeen-year life cycles underground. They chew on roots for the better part of two decades, crawl up trees, Cronenberg/Kafka into enormous flies, tear out of their alien shells, scream for two months, and die. I guess cicada days could either be a long time spent growing but not emerging, or they could be days spent struggling to become something new that doesn’t quite pan out so great, or they could be the two months of screaming. Or maybe it’s the height of summer, or the days when you can’t stand the noise outside. I guess I don’t really know. But the words feel kind of right to say."
Will Byers and Mike Wheeler have spent a semester at different colleges in Manhattan. After five months of no contact, they're about to meet back in Hawkins for winter break. Will has spent the semester growing but not quite emerging as he struggles to become someone new. Mike has just been screaming.

Summary
“Love is not a gadget; love is not a toy.”
After stealing a seemingly-innocuous diary from the office of Colonel Roy Mustang, Winry Rockbell finds herself involved in the drama surrounding the man tasked with building the gadget—the weapon to end all wars. Alongside the Elric brothers, two physicist wunderkinds working on the top-secret Project Alchemy, she unravels the mysteries of the diary’s authorship and the exact nature of the relationship between the Colonel and his steely assistant Lieutenant Hawkeye. Caught in the crossfire of conspiracies to destroy both the military dictatorship and the father of the atomic bomb, Winry must come to grips with the consequences of having stolen something invaluable. Just who is the Amestrian Prometheus? And what will end up destroying the world first—the atom bomb or a girl’s diary?- Language:

Summary
After getting shot in the river and left for dead, Carpenter wakes up to find that the Trawler-man has dragged her down to his damp and shrimp-filled kingdom at last. Given the choice between taking some time to process her trauma, and tracking down her ex-god so she can kick him in the shins, Carpenter handles this situation in as healthy a manner as you'd expect.
A choose-your-own-adventure set immediately post-canon. Between anger and grief, forgiveness and catharsis, Carpenter finally gets the chance to say goodbye on her own terms.
