Second Whisker: "Ears, I said ears…"
It took Roy Mustang two days to find someone willing to write him ears and a tail. Ed stayed in the spare room and kept his ears pricked, listening to the frantic calls his lover made.
"What do you mean, you have to study?"
"Grounded? For a month? What the hell did you do?"
"Ears, I said ears, not arse… a typo?... well, how was I to know that?"
"You moved to another fandom?"
Ed smirked as each call made Roy's voice go higher. He was rather impressed at Roy's willingness to go through all this for him. Edward sighed as he lay on the spare bed. He really did love Roy, and it was lonely here. He hoped it wouldn't take too much longer.
Roy stood, his back to the mirror, looking over his shoulder and admired his tail. Long, black and sleek. Everything he could have asked for. Better than he had imagined. He moved and watched as it swished slowly and wove in a pattern behind him. How strange it felt. He could feel its weight and the continual twitchings were making his nerves a bit jumpy. But it was a thing of beauty. Which made up for the ears.
They were black and they were almost as sleek as his tail, except that one was slightly lopsided and the other was missing a corner. They flickered and his hearing was vastly improved. It was just their appearance which jarred with his vanity. Edward always had such lovely soft perfect ears and a wonderfully golden fluffy tail. But the writer had had a deadline to meet and he had not wanted to wait another day, so he had accepted what she had offered.
He hadn't realised just how different these little changes made him look and feel.
He took a deep breath as he twitched nervously. Edward had better appreciate this.
Author's Note: More fluffy randomness...lol
