    Summary

    Eddie is used to getting recognized in public, but it doesn’t mean he likes it.

    That is, until the most beautiful man he’s ever seen in his life sits in the seat next to him, unfurling a giant map that easily shields both of them. Eddie’s fucking savior.

    “Hey, you wouldn’t happen to know how to get to Japantown, would you?” the guy asks.

    Summary

    Steve leans forward quickly, wrapping a hand around Eddie’s gloved wrist. Eddie’s visor snaps around immediately, opaque black viewport trained intensely on Steve’s hand. He doesn’t let go. Kind of impressed with his own bravery, instead, he gives Eddie’s wrist a squeeze.

    “Sit down for a second,” he says. Like this is no big deal. Like he makes a habit of putting his hands on a Mandalorian, like he’s used to the way the bones of Eddie’s wrist feel vulnerable and slight in his hand, a reminder that under all that matte-black armor, Steve suspects he’s actually kind of a wiry type.

    Steve’s been suspecting about that kind of stuff a lot. What started as a few idle thoughts watching Eddie and Dustin drill in the little scrubland yard behind his hut have become a lot, uh. More persistent. It’s starting to become a problem.

    Summary

    Esdras Al-Ridha is born in 1899, in his mother’s family home. His birth certificate, when it’s written a month later by Dr. Yuriy Rockbell, will declare his name Edward Elric. It will name his mother Trisha, and it will say nothing of her white hair. It will say nothing of the blue desert sky he first opens his eyes under, the way he is passed to relative after relative and is held and blessed by each.
    (Even before the war, tensions are high, and hatred is brewing. Tirzah holds her newborn son, with eyes as gold as his father’s, and pale-sun hair halfway there, and she decides that if Ishvala wants him hidden, then Tirzah will not brand him where his genes have not.)

    Summary

    He hesitates. “Don’t freak out, alright? It’s just that I may have gotten lightly stabbed in executing my escape plan.”

    “Lightly stabbed,” Steve repeats incredulously. He pinches the bridge of his nose. “Jesus Christ, let me see.”

    He grabs at the hem of Eddie’s t-shirt and pulls, and before he can even register the movement Eddie’s hand is around his wrist. His grip is tight but not painful. Eddie’s touches are never painful, even though they very well could be. Eddie has this unquantifiable and undetectable power within him, raw and buzzing below his skin, just waiting to be let out. He could snap Steve’s wrist clean in half if he wanted to and it probably wouldn’t take all that much effort, if any.

    He won’t, though.

    Eddie would never hurt him.

    Summary

    Munson is and has always been scathing in his disdain for Steve. Dustin resolutely plays it off like he’s just awkward, but Munson’s the least awkward scientist Steve’s ever known. And he’s been in the Stargate program for over four years now, so he’s known a lot.

    In some ways, it’s a general hatred for the Man, the military. He scowls at grunts even as he takes his orders from them. In most ways, it’s just Steve.

    or-

    Steve's just trying to keep everybody he loves alive in another galaxy.

    or-

    Eddie and Steve are soulmates... in SPACE!
