    Summary

    Ed didn’t expect to keep his alchemy, neither loosing his right arm all over again or staying with the military for as long as he has. He also didn’t expect for the country’s border to open. Well, kinda. With Grumman as the new President Furher and newly promoted General Roy Mustang at his side, they ended the skirmishes between Aurego, Creta, and Drachma. They also returned Ishbalans Holy Land of Ishbal. Of course, there was still complications here there, but that was to be expected.

    Ed, now Major General, was headed for central after a summons from Mustang. And according to the papers he received from Hawkeye, a foreign country called Japan has requested a meeting between a Delegate and their Minister to form an alliance of sort. But Ed has one main question to this mission.

    What’s a Quirk?

    Summary

    Their trust never faltered, their ties could not be broken, and existing lines that could not be crossed were never mentioned.

    Roy receives Dr. Marcoh’s offer to restore his vision and there is only one sight—one person—he truly wishes to see. Recognizing how much they almost lost, Roy and Riza attempt to very carefully navigate the tension growing between them in the aftermath of the Promised Day events. What was always there is now harder to ignore and leave unacknowledged despite truths that still exist, which have always prevented them from giving in completely. They begin to dance on the line between what they want and what is right given their circumstances.

    Summary

    She’s not an alchemist, but she could stand to learn about equivalent exchange, and stop always giving without ever taking in return. No, forget alchemy. Tomorrow, you’ll give her a gift, not to balance an equation, but because it’s what decent people do to those important to them.

    Set during the time in Resembool post-Promised Day.

    Summary

    (She still recalls the ice-cold fear in her veins, the desperate, the gasping, the despair at the thought that she might never see him again, never hear his voice again, never hold him again, a lifetime of two now spent alone – so, she did whatever she could, whatever she had to, as she dragged herself to that old suit of armor – to bring him back.)

     

    If she could describe herself as the blade that kept him safe, then Miquella was undoubtedly the heart – her heart – the sole reason she had kept on living and fighting and struggling to survive. Without him, she had nothing – and thankfully, he’s returned to her, as safe and sound as he could be.

     

    “That’s our cue,” he smiles warmly. “Let’s go home.”

     

    “Yeah,” she smiles back. “Let’s go home – together.”

    Summary

    Riza found the child on the side of the road. Briefly, shamefully, she wished she’d taken another route, worn anything but this blue uniform. But she was here, and she couldn’t look away, not now. So she knelt.

    Summary

    For the first two weeks, hardly a single person had been allowed to enter his room, due to his severely weakened immune system. Aside from masked doctors and Edward, who would sneak in when no one was looking against medical advisement, he’d spent fourteen days alone, with nothing to do but sleep and stare out his window.

    --

    Roughly a month after returning to Resembool with Edward after regaining his body, Alphonse struggles with readjusting to life outside of armor.

    Summary

    A month after the Promised Day’s anniversary, Ed receives a letter from Central University, only to find out his application was rejected…due to him not receiving any sort of proof of education. Thankfully, General Mustang is able to pull a few strings and get him enrolled into high school so he can receive his diploma and attend college, much to Ed’s dismay.
    In all this uncertainty, one thing is certain: high school’s not ready to deal with Edward Elric.

    Summary

    “Well, I already feel it won't be easy. I do appreciate your support, Miles.” The Ishvalian sees right through Roy's act. Miles approaches the General, puts a hand to Roy's ear, and leans in.

    “That’s not what I'm talking about, sir. I'm talking about the Judicial Committee. Word has it, General Hakuro is the chief investigator for the Committee. I'm telling you as a friend, whatever skeletons you may have in your closet better stay buried,” Miles whispers. The false confidence Roy displayed earlier shatters. “I hope, for your sake, it isn't a mass grave.” Miles backs away from Roy and gives a salute.

    Set nearly five years after the Promised Day, the now General Mustang's once mundane life in Ishval comes to a screeching halt. Now, given a lifetime opportunity, the general again enters the hornet's nest of central politics.

    This will be part one of a series focused on Roy's rise to power as the Fuhrer of Amestris and dealing with all the responsibilities (and headaches) it comes with.

    Summary

    A long time passed between The Promised Day and Ed showing back up in Roy Mustang's life as a bodyguard. Ed spent most of that time floundering without purpose. He takes a trip to Xing to see his old friend Ling Yao, and starts the long road to discovering who he really is.

    Later, he's not sure he likes the person he's become.

    This story fills in the gaps between the end of canon and the beginning of Conversations Over Coffee. It deals with the breakdown of Ed's marriage, and finally answers the question of why Ming-Yue is so mad at Edward all the time.

    Summary

    It's six years after the Promised Day, and Roy Mustang has purview over the day-to-day dealings of the State Alchemists. His medical records list him as beta, but Roy has a secret. He was prescribed suppressants because he couldn't handle the scents of the barracks at the Military Academy. He's tried to come off them, but something always drew him back to retaking them. Due to the medication, Roy's never understood what being an alpha is. When an explosion covers him in black market suppressants, he learns that he can't take the medication again.

    Alphonse Elric, an omega, is rare and coveted. He learned alkahestry while in Xing and is a part of Heaven's Dance, a prestigious Xingese acrobatics troupe of unmated omegas. Although he's unsure about his sexuality, he's sworn off alphas for a reason. He's come back to Amestris because he has an idea that may change the face of alchemy. Creating arrays unlike anyone has seen is a challenge, and since Edward can't perform the science, Al needs help from someone who knows alchemy and can keep their mouths shut. That means military and, by extension, Roy Mustang.

    When the two collaborate together, tempers will be tested, sparks will fly, and lives will be changed.
