This is basically a little story I made about a parental complex with Ed and Roy's relationship. While they are lovers, sometimes Roy does certain things that make Edward feel like a kid and as if Roy is his guardian. Most of these are subtle, and you may notice them (such as Roy cleaning Ed's cheek in Chapter 1); others may be forced down your throat (such as if Ed were to yell "You're not my dad!").
Ed goes through Roy's medicine cabinet. Ooh, what will he find?
----------------------------------------------------
"Well then, I'm off to work." Roy called to Ed. "You have free range of the kitchen. Are you going to be okay alone all day?"
"Yes, I'll be fine. See you later."
The first thing Ed did when Roy left was taking a shower. His hair was greasy and he was starting to smell bad, due to the few days without a shower. In all fairness, he had tried to take a shower in the headquarters, but he felt too weak and that was when he went into Roy's office.
After Edward had taken a shower, dressed only in his pants, he decided to snoop through Roy's medicine cabinet. He felt a bit like a kid again, when he sometimes went through his mother's cabinet. Of course, as a kid, he didn't understand what most of the items were. Such as the cotton balls with strings attached, though later he found out they were tampons and blushed his way through learning what they were used for. At the time, he just knew that they absorbed water, and it was amusing.
Granted, as he felt like a kid again, Edward obviously choked on his own spit when he saw not one, but two boxes of condoms when he opened the medicine cabinet; one box had flavors and the other didn't.
Curiosity took a hold of him, and Ed pulled out a grape flavored condom.
He ripped open the wrapping with his teeth and delicately took out the condom. He examined it, since he had honestly never even seen a condom, a secret that he hid from everyone, except Al. He noticed that you could unroll it, and so he did.
After doing so, Edward took note that the condom looked like a balloon. Obviously, he blew it up.
Once it was a medium size, Edward tied it up and licked his lips. The result was that Ed had to gulp down some water from the sink. The grape-flavored condom didn't even taste like grapes! Hell, grape-flavored cough medicine tasted more like grape than this!
Ed let the offending balloon-condom fall to the floor. What other nifty things would The Great Flame Alchemist have in his medicine cabinet?
"...Dessert treats? Hmm. Lollipop flavored..." Edward read the tiny tube of lip-gloss. "Why the hell would Roy have this in his cabinet...?"
Again, Ed let curiosity win and he applied the gloss. Immediately, it began tingling, an act which frightened Edward.
He quickly began to wipe the gloss from his lips in anyway possible: licking his lips, wiping it on the back of his hand, etc. He noticed, in his frenzy, that the lip-gloss did taste good.
He shoved the lip-gloss in his pocket, making note to ask Roy why he kept it in his cabinet and why it tingled.
Bored with the cabinet, which had only regular things such as aspirin left, Edward left to explore the house.
Under the mattress: that was the first place Edward could think to look for...well, any other dirty items, such as magazines.
Thus, Edward made his way to Roy's bedroom, and stuck his hand under the mattress. Nothing. Wait...there was...a piece of paper? Ed took it out, unfolded it, and was shocked to see his name on top of it, following "Dear".
----------------------------------------------------
Ahah. Condoms. Um, yes, I have tried a grape-flavored condom. Don't get any ideas though, because I pretty much tried it exactly like Ed did: I licked it out of curiousity. It wasn't used for...what flavored condoms are used for. And yes, the one I tried did taste like shit. I may have elaborated in this story a bit, but it wasn't good.
