Brothers A Fullmetal Alchemist song-fic By: Maribeliza ~~~~~ Very early one morning, during one of their stays in Risembool with Winry and Pinako for a tune-up to his automail, Ed lay awake in bed, unable to sleep. His mind wouldn't stop whirling with words he couldn't bring himself to say. With a frustrated sigh he rolled out of bed, dragging his left hand over his face with a groan at the sunlight piercing through the window. Al was nowhere to be seen, likely already downstairs with Pinako and helping her with breakfast. He shook himself before setting about his morning routine and then heading downstairs, leaving his hair down for a whil

I am not who I once was. She whom you knew has faded to memory. The river of Time has weathered her. Changed her. What remains of her is more rounded. She has been tempered by the flow of years. Her rough edges worn away and carried downriver. She is now a polished stone, no longer a rough rock. She tumbles along Time's riverbed. Searching for her place in the flow

My name is Kana. The others here in the tower call me "the black" when they think I cannot hear them. Jowan tells me it is because of the dark skin tone that came with my father's Rivani blood.

She hadn't shown up or let him know where she was by the time he finished showering, either. He was starting to worry. Upon trying both her omni-tool and Garrus' and receiving no response he frowned, pacing. "Hey, EDI, do you know..." James started to question but paused upon hearing quiet singing filtering through the open grate in the wall. "...never mind." He rode the elevator down a floor at

Beside her James cracked his eyes open and draped his arm over her side as she rolled to face him. "You okay?" James rumbled sleepily before yawning. "Yeah, just a bad dream." she said through a yawn of her own. "What time is it?" James rolled onto his back and stretched before twisting to look at her bed-side clock. "Uh, looks like 06:00." he answered turning back wards her. "We should probably get up..." "It looks like one of us already is." she teased with a grin, poking

"How is that even possible?" Liara asked, something between baffled and intrigued alight in her eyes. Sorcha rolled her eyes, recalling the story. "According to Ma her friend was at a party- picture the dance floor of lower Afterlife but the size of all of Afterlife- and somebody dared her to drink a whole bottle of 47 Thessia Red by herself so she did...and ended up sleeping with two different guys that night.
