Notes: ...And that's the last of them. All 22 can be found here.



7) Chariot: Victory, will, self-assertion, hard control


"It would be a very bad idea."


Mustang had seemed regretful, but had proceeded, methodically and systematically, to explain exactly why a relationship wouldn't be possible.


"It just wouldn't work. You understand, right?"


Ed, of course, had taken that as a challenge. Over the course of a year, he had proceeded, just as methodically, to wear down, break, and shatter every one of the other man's objections.


"You should know better than to tell me something's impossible."


"I should." Roy turned on his side and pressed close to the younger man, and didn't sound regretful at all. "I really should."




16) Tower: Sudden change, release, downfall, revelation


To Ed, Colonel Mustang had always been like an icon; the model soldier, the quintessential playboy, the perfect alchemist. Ed could hate him. He could admire him. He could even have a stupid schoolboy crush that was (he insisted) merely misplaced respect. But he could never have him; the Colonel was untouchable.


Coming back to find a man with a marred face and lines of worry and stress around his remaining eye challenged all of his adolescent memories of the man. Now he could hardly see The Colonel at all; only Roy Mustang, who seemed very glad to see him.




20) Judgment: Judgment, rebirth, inner calling, absolution


"Are you familiar with 'karma'?"


"I've come across the term." Ed shifted against his shoulder; a shrug. "Some sort of equivalent exchange that runs over the course of your entire life, isn't it? Why?"


"I was just trying to work out how, given—my life—how I ended up with this," he ran a hand down his lover's side to illustrate, "when what I probably deserve is . . . something much worse."


Ed pushed himself up on his elbows and regarded his lover for a moment; then snorted, and dropped back down to burrow into his shoulder. "Your accounting is off. Idiot."

Really nice set, these, and a really good idea. Thanks for sharing them, honey =)

"Your accounting is off."

OMG, you won with that line. You have many awesome lines, but that took the cake for me, and I don't know why. Thank you for these! Going back to read the others now! =D
