Summary
They were a mismatched bunch of country kids, snatched from their schools, tossed into hand-me-down Eastern uniforms, and thrown into a war they never wanted to be in and didn’t understand. Most of them were younger than his brother, making him the oldest one there, but not by a large margin. They stood there as ordered and they listened to the truck pack up and leave. Apparently, the guards that drove them there didn’t care to wait around for too long. They probably had better things to do than to watch prisoners blow up in a minefield.
.....
After civil war, Edward and Alphonse Elric are among child prisoners forced to clear minefields for the Amestrian military. Under Colonel Roy Mustang’s command, the boys face starvation, violence, and the constant threat of death. As hope fades and innocence is stripped away, Edward must protect his brother and the others, even as the world around them grows more brutal. This is a stark exploration of trauma, authority, and the bonds that survive when everything else is lost.- Language:

Summary
Ed decided to stall before they headed off to Dublith. Visiting Teacher could wait, and Winry didn’t have to go to Rush Valley right that moment, did she? Even Al was fine with sticking around a little longer! So he was completely justified in deciding to independently work on some government conspiracies.
(Surely the phone booth wasn’t that far away, right?)

Summary
When Ed spends a month in Resembool "reconnecting" with his father, it's a little odd. When he returns requesting to be dismissed from the dorms so he can move in with Hoenheim, who just recently bought a place in Central, it's shocking. When things start to escalate from there, and Ed starts showing signs of something more, it's dangerous. Will Ed be able to seek out the help he so desperately needs? Will Roy and his team be able to get to the bottom of things before it's too late?

Ed hasn't quite been himself after his run-in with Scar. He's been restless, flinching at loud noises and jumping at shadows.
Who could possibly understand but a colonel with the same fear in his eyes.

Summary
(“Winry.”
“Hm.”
“What would you say if I asked you to pierce my ears?”It’s quiet for a second. There’s a thump, like she’s dropped something. Winry opens a drawer, shuts it again, and within a minute, she’s advancing on Ed with a needle between her fingers and an utterly predatory look on her face, as if she’s gone hunting, and she’s just spotted her prey.)
or: In which the Fullmetal Alchemist adds just a little more metal to his body.

It started off as a ridiculous, blood-boiling nickname. Mouse. Out of all the teasing titles the Colonel had tossed Edward's way, that damn nickname had no right to bring him any sort of comfort.

Summary
With a young subordinate who has the nerve to return early from a mission but remain late for his report, Roy Mustang will not hesitate to lecture Edward Elric—no matter how many excuses the kid tries to use. Roy has run out of lenience towards this behavior, and already has a nasty lecture prepared.
…Until, of course, just like anything that involves the Fullmetal Alchemist: it doesn't exactly go as planned.

Summary
By sheer accident after listening to the recordings and photos Andrew Peale has sent, Roy Mustang thinks he knows where to find Ed.
“What are you gonna do?” Ed slurs quietly, there’s a sound as if his head has hit the ground, too heavy to keep up.
“I’m saving you,” Peale murmurs softly, almost fucking lovingly. “I’m going to take you away from the people who’d hurt you, who’d thought a child in the military was a good idea.’
“You’re insane!” Ed hisses.
“No,” Peale tells him. “I’m justice.”

Summary
Every state alchemist must get rectified each year. They can present their research. Give a demonstration. Or participate in mock combat. Whatever they choose, they have to show up on time and ready to wow, or else they get stripped of their title.
Mustang thought Ed knew about this. He thought Ed would take this seriously and show up on time for once in his life. But, as he sits in a room with an asshole major general to his left and a ticking clock in front of him, he starts to wonder just how seriously Ed takes this whole military thing.
Has Ed disappeared just to piss him off? Or is there something else at play?

Summary
"Roy Mustang had no weaknesses. Of course, that wasn’t strictly true. Everyone had weaknesses. But, when it came to trying to crack his façade, stall his career, or trip him up just enough to get ahead, no one had been successful."
Colonel Morris thinks he has an ironclad plan to finally get rid of Colonel Mustang while also spurring his own career forward. He just needs a certain young Alchemist to help him out. Hopefully he didn't jump to any conclusions.

Nothing Good Ever Happens When It Rains by boredom
Fandoms: Fullmetal Alchemist - All Media Types, Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood & Manga
21 May 2021
Tags
Summary
It was raining out. Nothing good ever happened when it rained. The moisture in the air, the water dribbling from the roof, the drops condensing on the window panes, all were reminders of just how useless Mustang was.
In some sick, twisted version of Murphy’s Law, nothing good ever happened when it rained because Mustang was useless in the rain. It was like the universe was conspiring against him to make his life even harder.
He was on high alert for most of the day because of it. Today would be the day some terrorist organization decided to make their move. Today would be the day some foreign army would invade. Today would be the day where everyone needed him to do something, and he’d be completely useless because it was raining out.
