A/N: Drabble 20! Why is insert on! oO;

The last four paragraphs written by SilvernFalcon because I suck and she rawks. Except the last sentence was rewritten by me 'cause it sounded funny.

Thank you Falcon :D

Yes, I knew this took a while to get out. I was spending time with my friend who was upset.

Who I cheered up with some Roy on Roy action! And yes, I did mean ROY on ROY action. OMFG. Taisa, you've corrupted me.

20. Overtime (170 words)

The sun was setting, the candles were burning low, and the soldiers were going home.

Most of the soldiers, anyway. Two state alchemists had the unfortunate pleasure of staying overtime for paperwork with each other.

"I don't see why we have to do this," griped Edward.

"It's supposed to teach us cooperation," Roy answered.

Ed glared. "I don't need to cooperate with you. It's not like we have to listen to Hawkeye anyway. We both outrank her."

Roy's pen stopped moving as he contemplated this fact, as if he never realized it before. Finally, he dropped his pen and looked at Edward.

"So we do," he said slowly, before falling silent and staying motionless.

Now only the scratching of one pen was heard, and Edward glanced up. "Why aren't you doing your paperwork?" he asked gruffly. There was yet another pause, before Roy looked at him with a slightly predatory grin.

"There are much better uses for desks than for doing paperwork on them..."

Edward's face flushed at the implication.

A/N: Bwahaha. Worship Falcon for her wonderful drabble-endingness. Eek! I gotta restart x.o;

Hokay, everyone! I have a request! When you review, pick a random word that can apply to 1910s (that means nothing like the word 'cell phone' or 'television') and put it at the end of your review! I'll take all the words , put them on a list, and try to write something about them in a drabble! I may not pick your word, though, if I think it's too inappropriate for my new drabbles n.n; So try and pick a good word! Thank you all in advance!

Reviewer Responses!

EmeraldKatsEye - Are you aware that your name NEVER keeps its bold formatting when I upload it to FFN? Yeah, I have to bold it in the QuickEdit thing. I luff Ryuichi, even if he is a total bastard ('scuse the language) I don't like Tohma x.x; Dun tell me! I wanna find out when vol. 12 comes out (in less than a month! EEE!) Thank you for the review :D!

Oki Jule - I don't watch Excel Saga oo Thanks for the review!

H's D - Well, guess what! I didn't mess up that time! Go me! Sometimes I can type properly, but very rarely. Iunno why. It's mostly when I'm not looking at the screen. If I look, I can't type right. Does that make any sense? For example, I've been typing most of this response without looking at the screen and I've only made one mistake. :D I corrected it. I don't mind your language. I have the mouth of a sailor. And homophobes are gay. You've -read- vol. 12! That's the last volume TT.TT I know it's online -somewhere-, but I can't find it. I wish it was July 12 so I could go to the bookstore and read it. I rented the DVDS from Netflix. Well, the first DVD. I watched some of the episodes on Adult Swim, but I always forgot that it was on and missed a lot x.x; I don't own any volumes of Kenshin, my friend does. I own volumes 3 and 14 of InuYasha. It's not that I don't like reading left to right (Demon Diary is formatted like that), it just screws with my brain and I end up reading it backwards. Oops! n.n; What are you talking about? o.o; Heh. Thanks for the review!

Noniechan - I do that a lot -guilty look- Hehehe... Was this fluffy enough? n.n What's the next chapter...? Oh yeah. Heh. I think you'll like that one and the next one too :D Uh, your MSN name didn't show up .. Just IM me and say that you're Noniechan and I'll know who you are. I look forward to the IM :D Thanks for the review!

Mistress Sprite - I did all of my finals except my Chemistry final and my Creative Writing final (I wasn't aware there was one and I messed up x.x; Leaf me alone) and my English final (I fell asleep. And tried to write some fluff. It didn't work, for the record). I am a writer and I am not evil. Much. Sort of. Shut up x.o; Thank you! I really feel like writing some really horribly depressing angst right now. Like, Roy and Ed get into a huge fight and Roy leaves to talk a walk... and gets hit by a car... wow. That would suck. I'ma write something like that. Thanks for the review n.n

Love is for Fools - No, Ed is oblivious, but not the good kind of oblivious TT-TT Good angst xD Hahaha. That's funny. Thanks for the review!

SoulSister - RoyEd drabbles are the BEST THINGS IN THE WHOLE WORLD. I luff them so much! They are so fun to write! There needs to be more challenges. I'll challenge myself. GIVE ME A WORD! -shouts that at everyone- The usual answer is pancake. Don't say pancake or I'm gonna go back in time and make sure pancakes were never invented. o.o; Uh, thanks for the review!

Dark Mimiru-Chan - Meanie Ed is mean to Roy... Aww... I like them more in this drabble :D! Thanks for the review n.n

Shadow Kitsune67 - I hope you liked them! Try reading Selah1's drabbles. They're finished and I really like them :D Thanks for the review!

Adriana Dimitrov - You have strange taste. Not that I'm complaining xD YAY GLOMP! Thanks for the review!

Uchiha Kuraiko - Sad things that are well written aren't that bad, right? n.n; Thanks for the review!

Black Hikari - So do I, but usually in a humorous way. I also love denial!Ed. That's my favorite, right there :D Thanks for the review!

Loki and Co. - I luff K. He is one of my favorite characters. Crazy gun-toting American! Yay! My RoyEd drabbles owns my soul? o.o; Well, that's true... x3 Thanks for the review!
