    Summary

    Sometimes there are moments like this one, where her future seems to mock her more mercilessly than others. They cannot know how effortlessly guilt will smother any love that gets too close, like flames leeching off available oxygen, or understand the cold resignation of a future of your own choosing, one that ends on the wrong side of a firing squad.

    They cannot know how much it aches, at every single moment but especially this one, to have the one thing you’ve always wanted always close enough to touch but forever just out of your reach.

    -

    or, a series of forbidden touches and what-ifs.

    It was a longing like obsession, like madness, a yearning down to the bones.

    Summary

    The following are archived letters retrieved from the late Fuhrer Roy Mustang’s estate. Having no living family, the State seized control of the Mustang home two years following his death in 1962. The staff at Central Library North has read, sorted, and displayed several historical mementos found throughout the Fuhrer’s personal office, including what appear to be love letters and general musings between Amestris’s esteemed leader and a woman called simply, Elizabeth.

    Summary

    Strangely, as she trudges through the scattered rows of trees, her boots squelching in the mud, she finds no sign of other campers. The pockets of terrain that would normally contain tents are empty, but for the tell-tale evidence of extinguished campfires, ashes scattered on the ground like a fine dusting of snow. She walks past the small concrete public bathroom and finds no signs of life there, either. To others, the scene might be eerie: a misty gray afternoon fading into twilight, no sounds but for the whispers of the trees, no company but the wind in her hair.
    But Riza has always loved fog, always loved the quietest parts of the world. It’s as though she can feel the secrets of each place, brushing up against her skin like a satin shawl. She knows what it is to have secrets, to keep them tucked up inside herself, stored carefully behind her lips. She feels a kinship with these sorts of places, who have seen and known things they can never reveal.

    Written for Kinktober 2022 (pls pay no mind to the current year), day 31. Prompt: free-for-all. I chose the prompt "camping trip" suggested by PistolQueen.

    Summary

    Jyn and Han can leave right then and there, but they won’t and they both know it. Their reasons for staying will always, always be the same. Right now, hers is lying in the med bay with a blaster wound in his chest and his is in the command centre trying to save the galaxy.

    ...

    Han Solo and Jyn Erso get drunk on the Millenium Falcon and find that they are similar in more ways than one.

    When a dangerous figure from Jyn's past pops up on a mission, Jyn decides to deal with it alone rather than involve Cassian. Predictably, Cassian is less than pleased by this choice.

    Summary

    She surprises herself with the force of the want in her. She’s only known him a few weeks—and he’s gruff, and secretive, and single-minded to a dangerous degree—but he’s the first person in a long time she’s had any real ties to. And yes, his loyalty is not to her so much as it is to the cause she’s now a part of. But for now, he’s just a little bit hers in a way that no one else has been for a very, very long time.

     

    Before they can meet with Saw Gerrera, they have to find Saw Gerrera, and that takes time. On the search, Jyn and Cassian grow closer.

    “He thought we were married??” Jyn says, rubbing bacta along the knife wound on her leg. “Why would he think that?”

    Cassian wipes the blood off his forehead and shrugs. “No idea.”

    Summary

    "The throbbing of Mustang's wounds echo a counterpoint against her pulse, a music created from war. His palm aches from being in this position so long, cradling her wrist, his wounds stretching uncomfortably, but he won't let go. He's been sitting in this chair by her bed, holding gently onto her wrist since she was brought in after her surgery. Twice he's been told by nurses to get back in bed, and twice he's refused.

    He won't leave her side, terrified if he does that he'll lose her in the darkness forever."

    In the hospital, Hawkeye and Mustang talk after the events of the Promised Day. They come to a decision that affects the both of them, and they get a little bit carried away.

    Summary

    “Is that who I think it is?” Riza spun in her stool to see Maes Hughes towering over them with an obnoxious smile. “Didn’t you have a birthday party to attend? Is this the lucky birthday boy?”
    To her horror, Ian stood from his chair to greet Maes with a handshake. “Not exactly. Major Ian Davies, friend of the birthday girl.”
    Riza slid from her seat to stand beside Ian. “Is the rest of the unit here?”
    “They left around 1:30. Roy stayed out with me.” He looked smug.
    Ian looked interested to hear that. “Colonel Roy Mustang?”
    “In the flesh,” responded her Colonel as he came up behind Hughes.
    Riza made eye contact with him. He looked stunned to see her standing beside the Major. It was clear he hadn’t seen her through the crowd. His jaw ticked slightly when he processed the image standing in front of him.
    NOTE: This fic is on the line between teen & mature but I chose to rate it mature to be on the safe side.

    Summary

    Roy’s hands land on her shoulders. He’s so close to her all of a sudden, his eyes wide and lips trembling as he lingers on every possible detail of her face, until an unguardedly sweet smile finally spreads across his features. “You are so beautiful,” he says, his forehead dipping close to hers as he sways on his feet. “I thought I’d never see you again, Lieutenant.”

    Something inside Riza’s chest bursts open, like a mouth yawning. Or a dam breaking.

    Summary

    'My husband used to write me long love letters as well.'

    Colin flinched, the pen slipping from his hand at the sound of her voice. The housekeeper stood over him, holding onto a silver tray.

    ‘I beg your pardon?’ he said.

    ***

    OR:

    Although Colin sends letters like clockwork, he receives no reply from his friend, Penelope Featherington.

    Is this what it feels like to lose one's mind?

    Summary

    “For as long as I shall live,” he vows.

    “For as long as I shall live,” she repeats.

    There is no guarantee how long that will be. There is no guarantee of tomorrow, reckless and foolish and stubborn as they are in their single-minded, dangerous pursuits. There is only now, only right now in the warmth of her presence.

    The moment is a treasure he intends to protect.

    OR: a kanej wedding, followed by kanej wedding night smut.
