Summary
After his research trip Ed slowly settles into a new routine with Winry.
What no one expected, least of all himself, is how things would escalate.
Or: How Ed goes from househusband to metalworking apprentice to automail mechanic, and it's all Mustang's fault.

Summary:

What no one expected, least of all himself, is how things would escalate.
Or: How Ed goes from househusband to metalworking apprentice to automail mechanic, and it's all Mustang's fault.my notes: Mustang suggests a new enrichment to the guy who has lost the main enrichment in his enclosure and then has the audacity to act surprised when the guy gets absolutely lost in the sauce. Ed, meanwhile, completely misses the part where he becomes an automail mechanic because the entire slope along the way is just "this would help winry" or "it would be more convenient if i could just do it myself". Al comes back from Xing for a visit to his brother having learned, like, 5 new skills and is like 'what the hell did i miss. what happened here'. lol

Day Twenty-Seven: Voiceless
Clearly, the offline yellow frame trapped by blackened earth had been trying to get clear even before the final explosion, likely ferrying his charge to safety. Small organic fingers tugged and shoved at the comparatively massive rocks, delicate skin tearing and leaving behind streaks of red fluid. But despite his panic, despite the pain, the human refused to abandon his guardian.
“Bumblebee,” he choked out, voice thick with emotion.
It reminded Soundwave all too much of another scene, long before, on another planet entirely.

my notes: Cried. This certainly captures An Emotion. Something something, he's your enemy, but your friend loved him, and now you have to choose how to deal with that for the next 5 minutes. Very good

Summary
There are few people in the world as experienced as Hanazawa Teruki in the fine art of providing young psychics with the enrichment they need to grow into their power and confidence. How could he call himself a role model if he neglected to share this opportunity with Ritsu?
Or: when Teru says little brother, he means it.

Or: when Teru says little brother, he means it.my notes: Absolutely incredible. Best fic ever. 1000/10. Teru being a good teacher and friend to Ritsu is so sweet, and his horror at what happens next is tangible and riveting. Very good characterization for both of them, too.

Summary
Olivia Draper had been a good idea at first. She could pass for older than Tim could pull off while masculine and women really could get into places easier if they had a pretty face. With makeup and some stylish-yet-inexpensive clothes, Olivia could pull off most undercover ops. She was Tim’s Matches Malone.
Then Hood had shown up on the scene.
-----------------------------------
When Jason met Olivia, he hadn't intended to pull a Bruce and take the scrappy teen informant under his wing. She just kept showing up where he was doing business. He had no other choice than to keep an eye on her. And kit her out with armor so she wouldn't accidentally get shot. And make sure she was being treated fairly by her mysterious boss.And, okay, maybe become her big brother.

AKA I write an enemies-to-caretakers story where neither party knows the other's identity until they're already invested.My notes: I'm not typically one for gender headcanons that differ from canon, but this fic fully sold me on genderfluid tim. very good tim characterization in general, but particularly in maintaining tim's persistence, shithead, and badass qualities. fully in love with jason repeatedly going "you will NOT be following me into danger" and tim repeatedly going "bet" with a smug ass grin
