    Summary

    Edward Elric would die before he was thirty, of that he was sure. It had been seven years since he came to that conclusion—he'd sold his soul and made a deal with the devil to preserve someone else's life. Yet as his borrowed time ran out, Edward realized he'd do it all again. If this were the personal hell he'd been allotted, he'd live it a thousand times over to save Al's life. Because Al was his little brother, and he was all Edward had left.


    or


    After escaping Germany in 1916, Edward goes against everything he once thought he knew and becomes a criminal to protect and provide for Alphonse. Seven years later, he gets caught up in a string of murders after foolishly attending university. The deeper he gets, Edward's web of lies comes crashing down, because a life built on spider silk can never last.

    Summary

    “ Listen up—there’s no war that will end all wars,’ Crow tells me. ‘War breeds war. Lapping up the blood shed by violence, feeding on wounded flesh. War is a perfect, self-contained being. You need to know that.’ ”
    - Haruki Murakami, Kafka on the Shore

     

    In which Amestris has been at war for so long, its neighbours cannot imagine friendly relations with it. All it takes is one wrong move, a single unfortunate mistake, and war like nothing even Amestris has seen before breaks out on all fronts but the desert.

    It’s just too bad State Alchemists are such powerful weapons, what with Edward Elric being only thirteen.

    Summary

    A sheltered, teenage Gracia starts to feel lonely after her older brother moves out. But before long, she meets a rambunctious teenage boy. Brilliant but oft misunderstood, Maes Hughes has never fit in. Despite the odds, the two become unexpected friends. And when they realize that they have feelings for each other, Gracia decides to go against her disapproving family's wishes.

    Almost 19, Roy Mustang has graduated the military academy and finally feels like he can protect himself and others. But while on a march to the front lines, he, along with fellow cadet, Hughes, are unexpectedly captured . Now in the hands of a cruel Aerugonian trafficker, the two must put their trust in an unexpected ally.

    Nearing his wedding anniversary, Maes has a lot going for him. However, regret over his actions and beliefs from his time during the Ishval Civil War start to plague him. And then, out of the blue, the military is re-investigating his and Roy's time spent in captivity. And someone is trying to silence them.

    Three separate POVs are woven together into one complete story, providing an idea of what Maes, Gracia and Roy's lives were like before the events of Brotherhood.

    Summary

    Mustang stopped Dumbledore with an extended hand, “You seem awfully concerned Headmaster. Considering, this has nothing to do with you.”

    Dumbledore leveled him with an inscrutable stare, “I’m not sure I understand what you're asking, Professor.”

    Mustang froze for a total of fifty seconds. Then he spoke, “Does this bring you some sort of satisfaction? Relieve compunction?" Mustang pursed his lips, brow contouring a face overburdened by contemplation, "I've found at times that taking the whole world onto your shoulders is the only way to make one’s own burdens feel more bearable. To find a… balance. So, what I'm asking? Is that what this is to you, Headmaster? Balance?"

    Summary

    In the Country of Amestris, Alchemy is a popular science. Home to the famous Alchemical families Armstrong, Elric, and Curtis, the country is an Alchemical super power, for better and for worse.

    The countries Prime Minister, in fact, initially gained notoriety for his use of a powerful form of alchemy. One of his first orders as the countries leader, however, and one of the few policies that had him accused of being a dictator, was the banning of his art: flame alchemy. What the public doesn't know, however, is that the order wasn't exactly his.

    In his life, the Prime minister has carried out many orders, most of which weighed on his conscious till the day he died. Somewhere along the lines, he promised to never take an unjust order again. He would be nobody's soldier, and along the way, maybe eventually he could go back to just being Roy.

    But can he?

    ...

    in other words: me making shit up about my favorite character. Mostly the brotherhood timeline with sprinkles of 03 cuz they're both good. Spoilers ig but this show is old as hell.

    Summary

    You were set to begin your new job in East City researching the effects of transmutation and alchemy on the human body. He was a military officer who just happened to be there when you needed directions. A chance encounter that ended up being one of the greatest days of your life. For that was the day you met him. The one who would turn your life upside down, burn everything down like a wildfire, and then cauterize it all when he's done. He wasn't just a person, he was a force of nature. And you gladly welcomed him with open arms. It's not like you had a choice. Who could say no to those endlessly dark eyes?

    I'm not sure how accurate I'll make this to the actual story. I guess we will see :)

    Summary

    Jean Havoc was the first to notice something was wrong.
    Half an hour earlier, everyone from Mustang Unit had left the office to grab lunch at the café, except First Lieutenant Riza Hawkeye. She said she was a bit tired and wanted to rest for a while. Havoc knew what that was about: When work stress mounted, Lieutenant Hawkeye could be harsh on herself.
    They packed beef ham sandwiches and drinks for her. As Havoc placed the food on the Lieutenant's desk, he noticed something peculiar about the silhouette of her dark blue military uniform.
    He pulled back the coat, only to find it concealed not Lieutenant Riza Hawkeye, but a frail, little blonde girl.

    Summary

    But away from everyone, in the far corner of the room, was a man Roy had never seen before. He was young, probably sixteen years old judging by his small stature. He had tan skin and long, blonde hair arranged in a braid. But what really caught Roy’s attention were his eyes: bright, intelligent golden eyes that followed his every move. The stranger’s mouth hung open, like he was seeing a ghost, his right hand flexing on his lap, hidden from view by the white glove he wore.

    His aunt left his side to join Mr. White and Lilly, speaking loudly to drown his remarks about how ‘exquisite’ the girl’s figure was, but Roy wasn’t paying them any attention. He only had eyes for the mysterious man.

    -----------

    Roy thought it was going to be a normal day. But when he met a strange man with golden eyes at his aunt's bar, his life would be changed forever.

    Summary

    Accidentally being born 500 years too early, and then accidentally getting your father killed at, like, 12, and then 15 years after you were never supposed to be born you’re standing in the center of a circle of destruction holding a tiny bastard in a flask as your country gets torn to shreds because of one man’s idiocy. And in the middle of that, you become the sole idiot following a non-existent ‘religion’ for some spotty asshole in a white void. Also, limbs? Never heard of those.

    Safe to say, Edward Hohenheim was positively completely fucked over in every way possible.

    He doesn’t even know why he tries to save this stupid country.

    Summary

    Riza has yet to become adjusted to Hughes’ hectic and unstructured schedule, his overcompensating demeanor, or the general stifling atmosphere of Central. She misses the East, misses her unit, her friends, and she even misses Colonel Mustang, even if he was the one who booted her out of East City

    Summary

    In the soft light that came with the dawn of the Promised Day, Maes found himself back at the place where everything first went wrong. At Roy's grave. Holding hyacinths again.

    Blue for loyalty and sincerity. Purple for sorrow and regret. The same exact shades Roy had brought to Elicia’s birthday party, as if he’d had anything to apologize for.

    “I should be the one apologizing to you,” Maes muttered, eyes stinging. He’d long since stopped letting his guilt control him, but he knew he would never truly forgive himself for not picking up that phone. “I’m… so sorry, Roy.”

     

    Or the Promised Day, when long-awaited truths are finally revealed.

    Summary

    • Собака [Sobaka]
    • Traditional Drachman, meaning "Dog"

    Newly promoted General Roy Mustang has been missing for four months—drugged, gagged, and dragged from his home in the late evening. His car is missing, his flat ransacked, and his private phone line hanging off the hook, blaring its monotonous dial tone.

    (Roy wakes up blindfolded, his face too long, his teeth too sharp, and a foreign language whispered in his ears.)
