    Summary

    Minato thought he felt the moment of death, a blinding light washing over him as he used the last of his chakra. He knew he felt the seal take and the fox's chakra lurch and fall silent.

    He didn’t understand why he was still alive.

    AU where Minato, following sealing the Fox, wakes up in a world in which Obito and Rin are alive. But where is his last student?

    Summary

    It’s not an exaggeration to say that between a tyrannical government, two overpowered, under-socialized teenagers, the sudden influx of foreign royals and his own crippling sense of self-loathing, Roy Mustang has his hands quite full.

    That’s not to say he doesn’t need things. He does, very much. A new Führer, preferably himself. A good social worker with a phenomenal therapist in their employ. A diplomatic corps who advise things other than Yes, Sir, my expert opinion is that we should invade, murder everyone and take all their resources. A husband who will hold his hand through the copious therapy for his PTSD and depression.

    What he doesn’t need, he notes, is a third wildly overpowered, under-socialized teenager, except this one is, by all accounts, a witch and has his lips sewn together with metal thread.

    Summary

    “Alphonse Willoughby Elric! I swear to God, if you don’t stop crying right now—”

    And then he did. He stopped crying all at once, and stared at Ed with his large, wet eyes. Then he scrunched up his nose as he did when he was thinking.

    “Willoughby? I don’t have a middle name.” He hesitated. “Do I?”

    “Well—”, Ed huffed, crossing his arms before his chest. “No, but … Alphonse Elric just didn’t feel like enough. I needed more syllables to express how cross I am.”

    Alphonse blinked at him. “So you just made one up?”

    Ed shrugged. “Yeah.”

    Summary

    “Damn, kid,” he said, easing himself up onto his knees and biting back a wince when the movement pulled on the bullet hole in his side. “You really got him good.”

    Ed didn’t respond. A tiny, hurt sound reached his ears, nearly drowned out by the rain, and he raised his head, finally turning to his subordinate, who had yet to get up from the ground.

    The kid’s eyes were wide, usually bright, golden irises dulled by an unnerving haze, and glued to the man bleeding out in front of them; his tan skin had taken on a pale, sickly hue, a tremor shook his hands that he knew could have nothing to do with the cold-

    And Roy’s stomach dropped.

    Ed-

    Ed didn’t kill people.

    Ed had never and could never take a human life.

    Summary

    He kept up his grumbling all the way to the door, where he was both stupid and tired enough to forgo checking the peephole before ripping it open.

    “It better be important-” he snapped, the perfect picture of a disgruntled military commander, but the rest of the tirade died thick and sour on his tongue.

    On his doorstep, his hand still raised, finger pointed as if to abuse the doorbell yet again, stood a young blond boy, drenched to the bone and looking at him like he had lost his mind.

    “Yuriy?” he breathed and rubbed at his eyes once more to make sure the child wasn't a mirage of some sort.

    -

    Ed's (pre)teen son shows up on Roy Mustang's doorstep in the middle of the night. This is troubling for several reasons!
