Drabble the Thirty-Fourth, cause Havoc and Fury deserve more lovin!

No cigs, no cigs, no cigs, nocigsnocigsnocigs…

It was a mantra, a study in self-control. All right, not so much self-control as a fear of the alternative. He didn't notice he was tapping a rather erratic and agitated rhythm onto his desk with the butt of his pencil, at least not until Ed snatched it out of his hands.

"Damn, Havoc, go have a smoke or something. You are driving me nuts."

Havoc shook his head in a violent negation. "Can't."

"Out? I am sure not even Hawkeye can argue with you needing to take a few minutes off from work to restock. You are next to worthless right now anyway."

"I can't." Havoc's voice held a definite desperate tone, almost as if he was wishing Ed would just let the matter drop. The thought of running quick to pick up a pack of smokes…it was just too tempting.

"Why the hell not?!"

Havoc turned bloodshot eyes towards Ed, who noticed the nic-fitting man had most definitely developed some sort of…tic in the left eye. "Fury." Havoc grated out. "He said if I continue smoking he would just rather kiss the dog." At Ed's blank look he supplied, helpfully, "the breath is better."

There really was no good way to reply to that, so Ed didn't. He just kind of…backed up. Havoc was desperate for cigarettes, and desperate for the attention of Cain Fury. It appeared that he had granted Fury priority. Some addictions were easier to get over and go on without.

Lluvia-the-wolfgirl - i have this HUGE soft spot for Hohenheim, and the demented sort of relationship he and Ed have...there need to be more fluffy attention paid to those two.
