    Summary

    General Roy Mustang—charming, intelligent, heroic—is predicted to be the next Fuhrer of Amestris. But a series of acts of terrorism drive the General into a ruthless race against a magnetic opponent. Mustang and his team scramble to salvage a campaign in the face of rising nationalism, scandal, and international tension. If they succeed, they can save an infant democracy from collapse. Mustang must consider what and whom he is willing to sacrifice, and he must ask himself the most difficult question of his life: can one be a good politician and a good man?

    Summary

    She feels like she can’t breathe. She feels like she might drown. She’s carrying his child, the indisputable proof of how much they have dared to sin. If alchemists are right, and the world does function based on equivalent exchange, then this must be the toll they had to pay for the happiness they stole when their fingers intertwined and their bodies rocked together.

    A pregnancy would be the end of her. The end of him, his dreams, his ambitions. The end of them, their secret - an illicit affair, carried out between hushed words and shameful sheets. But faced with the inevitable, with Havoc & Catalina at her side, judging her, pitying her, Hawkeye has to come to terms with the situation she and Mustang find themselves in.

    Summary

    “Motherfucker, shit, fucking hell.” She moans. Rolling her head, she turns towards Dina. All she can see is her back with an arrow sticking out of her right shoulder. Jesus Christ, how is she gonna get them out of this?

    Jesse’s fucking dead, oh god, Tommy’s dead too. What was she thinking coming here, he warned her, he fucking told her it was a bad idea, she got him killed, she got them all killed.

    “Dina? Dina… can you hear me?” She calls desperately, voice cracking. Dina doesn’t move, doesn’t even twitch. She can’t be dead, too; she just can’t. If she’s dead… what the fuck is the goddamn point. “Dina, please, can you hear me?” She calls again, tears now mingling with the blood that runs down her face. Softly, she pleads, “Please.”

    IE: How do Ellie, Dina, and Tommy make it to Jackson after the fight with Abby in the theater.

    Summary

    “So, what are the rules about radio usage in town?” Joel takes a swig from his thermos, the almost too hot coffee tingling on his tongue.

    “As long as it’s here in Jackson, ain’t got any rules. Other than we keep a pretty regular check on frequencies at the main guard station, so any conversation you have could be interrupted.”

    “Makes sense. The town got a list of call signs?”

    “Yeah, but it’s for the patrollers. You lookin’ to find out who this Rosette is?” Tommy peeks at him out of the corner of his eye, and Joel rolls his eyes.

    “I told ya it ain’t like that.” Joel wipes his mouth with the back of his hand and plunks the thermos down onto the still snow-covered picnic table. “Just didn't know if there was some protocol I had’ta follow. An’ I ain’t lookin’ to find out who she is. Long as I know it’s someone in Jackson, I’ll be fine. If an’ when she wants to share her real name, she can.”

    “Alright, just let me know if anythin’ seems off. Like I said, shouldn’t be able to get outside the town walls, but if someone really wanted to, they might be able to communicate from just outside.”

    IE: Joel gets a ham radio while he and Ellie are on the outs. Someone answers his call.
