    Summary

    Edward Elric is eleven years old when the Gate cracks his mind open like an egg and pours the universe into the shell that’s left behind. He screams as he stands in front of the Gate and the thing with the too-white smile.

    The Gate opens, and pressure builds in his skull. Images speed past faster than he can process them, but somehow he knows what each of them are, what they mean, how to use them. They’re formulas and facts and faces that he’s never seen before, but he Knows them. Ed Knows many things, now, and it hurts.

    The Gate spits him out as someone new with pieces of Everything lodged in his skull, but he goes back because for Alphonse, he would do anything. He would pay any price, would have the universe compressed into his skull if only he could still have his brother. The Truth grins and takes his arm, giving him more knowledge than he ever wanted to have as it rewrites parts of One with All and leaves him lying on the ground alone.

    Edward Elric is eleven years old when he passes through the Gate a second time and learns that having done so before doesn’t make it hurt any less.

    Summary

    In the turn-based game "Savior of the Broken Realms", Cale Henituse is a minor villain with healing powers but refuses to use them. His self-centered behavior led to horrible consequences, and he ended up being beheaded.

    “Welcome, player Kim Rok Soo! I am system 001 of the Villain Reformation Department, happy to serve you!”

    But Kim Rok Soo never expected that he’d one day possess Cale’s body. Quickly, he realized why this young master refused to heal.

    It hurt like a bitch!

    There was a famous healer in the Roan kingdom, with flaming red hair and robes as white as pearls. According to rumors, he was as pure as an angel, and would willingly sacrifice his health and wellbeing to heal others.

    The rough commander Choi Han, who was notoriously known to be terrifying and ruthless? Cale healed him! The two-faced crown prince Alberu Crossman? Cale saved him from the brink of death! And even the cold-hearted man from the opposite side of the war, who was their enemy, had his grievous wounds removed by Cale!

    And what was Cale’s response to people asking if he was okay after vomiting a mouthful of blood and sweating as he endured the hurt?

    “Shut up, I’m not in pain!”

    Summary

    Topic-wise, this piece was inspired by a Batman fanfic, but requires no prior knowledge of the story or fandom to read, and does not specifically refer to any one character.

    It's written from the perspective of a young woman or man who has been a victim of familial abuse and/or neglect, and expresses wishes to faithful loved ones regarding his or her final (or maybe NOT so final…) resting place, alongside fond reassurances to ease the grief.
