    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

    Roy Mustang is a popular person- as the Hero of Ishval, why wouldn’t he be? At a party dedicated to his own promotion, he discovers the hard way that popularity comes hand in hand with jealousy.... and danger.
    -~-

    Roy didn't feel right. The world seemed to sway as he glanced down at the glass in his hand, fingers too weak to hold it properly. He blinked, the faint sound of shattering glass filling his ears. He had a glass, didn’t he? Only, when he checked his hand again, the beverage was gone.
    His legs buckled suddenly, and he leaned against the table, unable to support his own weight.

    Summary

    The boy looks up with hazel eyes. There is a look in his eyes that only a son could have for his mother. A desire to make her proud. “My name is Jayce of the House Talis. My father is Edmund Talis. I’ve come to claim my birthright as heir to my House.”

    And through his stumbling words, his mother thinks- yes. You will make me proud.

    (Or: Jayce and Ximena Talis never make it out of the snowstorm together. Jayce and Viktor meet, decades before they should, as two children of Zaun. This changes everything.)

    Summary

    When Viktor finally asks why Jayce stayed behind inside the Anomaly with him, Jayce stares at him as though he’s supremely disappointed by the question— as if Viktor has betrayed his own brilliance by asking something so irredeemably stupid. “How could I not? We’re partners.”

    Partners, Jayce calls them. Not for the first time, Viktor wonders: Partners in what?

    *

    Or: Jayce and Viktor survive the Hexcore, a blizzard, their own bodies, sharing a bed and all the things they’re too afraid to say. Slowly, they put themselves back together— piece by stubborn piece.

    Summary

    “You have to destroy it.”

    Viktor's voice fills the small room, echoing softly off cut stone and shifting metal.

    Jayce doesn’t think he can. Not when they’re so close to a cure. Not when they’re so close to a chance at Viktor’s survival.

    -

    The world begins to crack around Jayce and Viktor when Jinx’s bomb obliterates the Council and nearly kills both men in the process. With Viktor’s health still rapidly declining and threats of civil war looming on the horizon, dire decisions regarding Hextech’s future must be made.

    Summary

    “You sound nervous, Viktor. Is something –” Then he caught sight of the small hand clutching the side of Viktor’s vest. Jayce’s words stuck in his throat as a face peeped out from behind the scientist, a young girl with startlingly blue hair looking up at him with fear. “Um – who’s this?”

    . . . years later . . .

    “Just this once,” Jinx whispered, “Can’t I prove that I can help my family instead of watching them die?"

    On the night Jinx loses her family, Viktor finds her and takes her in as his apprentice on the Hextech team. But when he falls ill, the lengths she’ll go to save him might just drive her mad…

    It starts as a half-brained plan to avoid paperwork, it ends with him being thrown into a river by a serial killer and developing pneumonia.
    To make it worse, Fullmetal is here and finds the entire situation hilarious.
    At least Riza is being nice, when she isn't beating him over the head with the reports he neglected to read.

    AKA Roy has a bad time and everyone else is along for the ride. Unapologetic whump.

    Summary

    There were a thousand things she wanted to say. She wanted to yell at him to take better care of himself, to cry like a child at how she’d thought he was dead, to grab him by the shoulders and shake some sense into him. Instead, she took the washcloth off of his forehead and dipped it back into the bowl of water. “You really should try to go back to sleep, sir,” she said, wringing out the washcloth and dabbing at his face with it. “You need your rest right now.”

    Ever the diligent second-in-command. Ever the emotionless wall.

    Summary

    “You’re an alchemist. Winry said.”

    He blinks. The kid does not. No hello is forthcoming. Neither is context. Roy finds his eyes searching for the toy that must be broken and resigns himself to his new job with a sigh. It’s practise at least. He won’t have to worry about forgetting how to draw a circle.

    “Yeah,” he replies.
    -
    After the Flame Alchemist loses two limbs in an 'accident' not long into the conflict in Ishval, he ends up in the care of an automail engineer in Resembool. Unfortunately for Roy, it's not long before the Rockbells' daughter lets slip his secret to two bothersome brothers with a borderline obsessive interest in alchemy. He isn't a teacher and he most certainly is not a parent, but when tragedy strikes the sheep farming town, he finds that fate doesn't often leave a choice.

    Summary

    "He'd never felt this out of control, this untethered in his life. He'd also never longed for Hawkeye by his side more - her presence had always been a calm balm when he was going off the rails, a voice of reason in his emotional storm. But she wasn't here, and he had no idea what condition she was in."
