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.

Summary
(“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.

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.

Summary
(“Ed.”
He straightens up as if he’s been shocked. He whirls around, a bloody rag pressed to one palm. Winry glances at it, and then at the shattered pieces of a glass on the floor by his feet, and says nothing.“Oh.” He croaks out. “Winry. Did I wake you?”
“No, dummy. Thunderstorm did.” Winry says, and as if waiting for a cue, the thunder rumbles again. Ed’s eyes widen as it does, his breath hitching. He turns away again. )
Or: the night after the boys come home.

Child of the Sun-Star’s Fallen Heart by BeyondTheClouds777
Fandoms: Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood & Manga
07 Oct 2023
Tags
Summary
Edward pulls his knees impossibly close to his chest. “It’s not… cured. Just—um. The average lifespan for someone with the sickness is just over thirty years, but Hohenheim couldn’t cure it, so he just… gave me enough souls to keep me alive.”
Oh, hell. “Multiple?” Roy says.
“Hundreds,” says Edward. “I’m a Philosopher’s Stone.”
Edward Elric is a boy who knows a little bit about everything. He dabbles in a wide assortment of hobbies and skills, regardless of how niche or outdated they may be. Some days he’s himself; other days the kid stares off into space, zoned out so severely that it takes hours to snap him out of it.
Roy always thought it strange. But teenagers are strange, aren’t they? Being a prodigy of alchemy doesn’t make Edward an exception.
But it’s not that simple.
On the brink of death, Roy is saved by his subordinate from what should have been a fatal wound, and in the process begins to understand.

Summary
Edward guts him with his eyes, with his glare. He looks distressingly close to tears.
“I’m not letting go of you.” Edward squeezes Roy’s wrist until it hurts. Until Edward’s adrenaline and fear shake down Roy’s skin and sink into his bones. “S-So stop—stop being a dumbass and help me—”
The kid’s voice finally breaks open, raw and wet and scared. It strikes Roy’s core deeper than any bullet. Any knife.
Any impact.
Ed’s glare comes down on him fiercely. Roy is about to earn it.
A mission goes very, very wrong.

from the truth of a thousand lies by aceofjapan
Fandoms: Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood & Manga
28 Feb 2023

Summary
It was almost enough to make him laugh, the absurdity of it all.
It really was true—people spent so much time and energy worrying about what others might think of them, forgetting that they, in turn, did the same. Most of the things they felt insecure about in themselves, other people never even saw—not because they were indifferent, but because they were too busy worrying about their own insecurities.
That was how they had been able to hide the truth about Al‘s body from most people for so long, after all.
Five times Edward tries to hide his issues and is surprised that it actually works. Plus one time it doesn't.
