Sort of a late update, apologies. I have a crapload of work to do, and school ends in about two weeks. But I might be posting something other than this in the next little while (le gasp!), if I can find the time/motivation. So if you like BBC Sherlock, there might be something for you very soon!
Warnings: Heavy dose of angst, spoilers for who killed the Rockbells.
Timeline: Anime verse; mid- to late-series
10) Drowning
He knew that the others were speaking- Fullmetal was shouting, Alphonse barely holding him back; Pinako Rockbell stood mutely back against the wall, though her expression was angry. But all he could see was her. Her, Winry Rockbell, who looked just like the doctors, just like her parents.
It was like he was drowning in those eyes, just as blue as her mother's. Wide eyes, innocent, and yet so full of pain. Slowly, though, they went grey, and he was frozen out. But her words still left him gasping for air.
"You-"she whispered faintly. "You killed my mom and dad?"
I'm not even going to deny it- I love angst like nothing else.
lotrprincess: Oh, I absolutely adore that story! Thanks for the review!
Dfire: You're too kind, really *blushes* There's definitely more where that came from, dearie!
