-.-.-.-.-. story -.-.-.-.-.-.-
"Al, a little help here please?"
Al looked over from reading his new Alkahestry book to see that his sister had pinned Winry to the wall. "Fucking hell Ed! Get off my girlfriend!"
Ed didn't move from where she had Winry pinned so Al put his book away, got up and hit her in the base of her neck. Ed dropped to the ground.
"Don't do that! She'll hurt herself!"
"Winry, this is the fourth time she's jumped you. We're not doing this anymore."
"I know it's a lot to handle but you know what she's going through."
All huffed at his girlfriend as he picked his sister up and threw her over his shoulder. "Doesn't give her a free pass to molest you wherever she feels like it." He headed for the door.
"Where are you taking her?"
"To someone that's a professional with this kind of thing."
"Al! Wait! No!" Winry scrambled to get ready and chase after him, shoes untied and only one arm in her jacket. "You can't take her to him. He's evil!"
Al kept walking.
"Al. Don't. … He… he killed my parents. Please?"
He finally stopped, turning to Winry with soft eyes, "I know love." He cupped her cheek with his free hand, "War is a terrible terrible thing." Waiting with her until he saw some acceptance. He couldn't and wouldn't offer any excuses for the General, his mistakes were his, but Al trusted him and it was a prickly subject between them. "I'll take you to dinner after this. Some place quiet ok?"
Finally Winry nodded. "I'm coming with you though, someone has to explain this to Hawkeye."
Al grinned, "Perfect! That'll save me an awkward conversation."
-.-.-
They found the team in the office as expected. Al waved most of them away with a hand and went straight to Mustang's inner office, startling Mustang from his nap and tossing his sister onto the couch.
He raised an eyebrow at Winry as she ushered Riza and Havoc in behind him and shut the door but left her to it, stepping back toward the door in case Ed woke up and realised she was in trouble.
Winry, while avoiding looking at Mustang behind his desk, moved so everyone was in a loose circle and easy to talk to. Taking a breath she addressed the Lieutenants. "As you know, Alphonse and Ed were very busy when they were traveling and looking for the Philosopher's Stone. Ed especially since she's older and felt guilty about what happened to Al."
She didn't see Mustang narrow his eyes when she used the unexpected pronoun since she wasn't looking at him, but she did see and hear Havoc choke on his own spit. She opted to keep going since no one interrupted. "Their travels were about getting Al's body back, so neither of them were able to adjust to their own … developments. Al because he didn't have a body to develop, Ed because she's stubborn and single-minded when it comes to her brother. She has spent her entire life suppressing any urges in order to stay focused. We know Ed, so we know she wouldn't put herself before the wellbeing of others. I'm aware I'm repeating myself there but I'm trying to convey how much Ed has actually suppressed. From 15 to 21 she's been-"
Winry cut off at the sound of Mustang's chair scraping back as he finally stood up, staring at him wide eyed as he glared at Ed.
Riza stepped into her line of sight, using her proximity to block Roy from view and smiling encouragingly.
"It's ok Winry. He's mad at Ed, not at you. Keep going." Al grinned at her from his spot by the door, Winry relaxed, though she was annoyed at Al for enjoying his sister's impending doom. She took a deep breath to continue. "From 15 to 21 Ed has been keeping everything locked up, but now she's healthy, Al is healthy. Everything is pretty much back to normal and her brain has nothing else to distract her with. She's become … a handful. We were hoping, Al was hoping you could help."
Havoc finally spoke up, "Why doesn't Al have the same problem?"
Winry turned bright red as Alphonse chuckled from the corner, "I have someone to help me with my urges."
Jean looked between them, figuring it out. "Ok, guess I still thought you and Ed were a thing. My mistake."
"A thing?! What is it with men just assuming women are always sleeping with someone?!"
Winry grabbed Havoc by the arm and dragged him over in front of Ed's unconscious form, "stand here." Then to Havoc's utter embarrassment, she ripped open his shirt before turning around, propping Ed up into a sitting position and slapping her awake.
When she stepped out of the way Havoc knew he was in trouble. Ed was wide awake and staring at him like he was her next meal. And Ed loved food.
She jumped onto him, pinning him to the floor before he could react. Then her hands were in his shirt running over his chest and down… he yelped and tried to push her off but she growled and bit him.
Winry had retreated to the door, and to Al. Though by the look on her boyfriend's face, maybe she should have stayed where she'd been.
"I didn't know you could rip a man's shirt open like that."
Winry blushed, "I was mad."
Al's look was intense. "I think we need to go." He grabbed her hand and started to drag her toward the door. His sister was someone else's problem now.
Winry looked back on the chaos as Al dragged her through the door, but it looked like they already had it under control. Jean was sitting up and Riza was beside him investigating some bite marks. Mustang was sitting on the couch looking over Hawkeyes shoulder, Ed was sitting on the couch as well, facing Mustang. Her eyes were unfocused and she seemed completely subdued. Winry saw why quickly enough, Mustangs hand was on her neck, his thumb doing slow circles…
Winry shook her head as Al dragged her out of sight, the Elrics were perverts.
