    Summary

    “Yeah.” Ed exhales it, and he seems to have deflated, just a little. He always does that when talks of the Promised Day comes up. “Hey, I think I might have to leave again, actually.”

    *

    Ed's automail is broken and his ports irritated. Uncharacteristically, he immediately takes measures to fix this. And Roy, as always, is steadfast by his side. The dog also helps.

    The "short" and (tooth-rottingly) sweet little exploration of their relationship, Roy's disability, life after the apocalypse and Roy's interaction with Ed's family in Resembool.

    Summary

    Havoc starts talking and then Ed realises why the office has been so quiet the last— hour? —He stares at Havoc, trying to figure out what he’s saying based on how his mouth moves. He can lip read, and that’s not the issue. The problem is that he’s become so used to having his ears working with his eyes to pick up speech, but now— all of a sudden, it’s gone again.

    Why, godfuck-why did his hearing aids have to break today, of all days?

    Summary

    Leading the Blind and its many mini-arc sequels – I've marked it as complete, which is a bit of a lie, because I add to it when I get inspired. :)

    Summary

    Growing up, Telemachus couldn't wait for two things. The first was his father coming home. He'd dreamt how he'd greet him, daydreaming about how his father would hug him and tell him how proud he was of Telemachus. The second was presenting as an alpha. How could he not with two amazing alpha parents like Odysseus and Penelope? He was told by so many that he would grow up to be an amazing warrior, like his parents; that he would be an amazing ruler, like his parents; that he would be an amazing alpha, like his parents.

    And then, he turned ten and two terrible things happened. His father never returned home and Telemachus presented as an omega. His training halted and he wasn't eligible to take the throne anymore, all of his dreams gone up in smoke like they’d never mattered to begin with.

    And now, 108 suitors infest their halls, vying for his hand. Telemachus isn’t strong or brave like his parents. Honestly, he isn’t much of anything. But, they can’t stall for much longer, and Telemachus knows that he will have to stand tall and strong to survive the upcoming storm. He’s just not sure he won’t break under the pressure.
