All jokes aside, the cat’s a good thing. Clint has some self-respect left and refuses to pine after a cat guy. “Are you actually being serious right now?” Nat elbows him in the gut as Clint stares at Bucky’s bleeding face, whimpering a little when he just spits out some blood and, with a scowl, waves off the medic who dares to approach him. “Why is this so hot?” Clint fans himself with his own t-shirt, stretching the cotton with each drag, and pines with the intensity and urgency of at least a hundred dying phone batteries.
[or]
Clint has a type. And his type is assholes.
Hear me out. . . Yelena Belova and Kate Bishop romantic tension in Hawkeye. Their personalities! Their predisesors! I don't know what I'm saying but I ship it okay. . .
The Avengers Headcanon #1
Okay, but, imagine Steve going to Avengers' Movie Night thinking they were going to watch something chill like Netflix or some shit, and instead the lights go off and all of a sudden Steve sees his old war films playing.
It took Tony a while to find the Captain America movies but it was worth it when he saw Steve's face.
Nat. She speaks more languages.
Ok, for fic writing purposes, who do you think would be more likely to fluently speak Spanish, Clint or Natasha?
I want a 5 year old with a missing tooth to tell Wanda that she’s her favorite superhero when she is scared.
I so wish this to happen, I cannot describe how much!!
Happy New Year!
I wish Marvel would have kept Clint’s hearing loss in the movies. Some of my favorite fan fictions have the Avengers all learn ASL so Clint doesn’t have to wear his hearing aids all the time 😍
I have no idea what to be for Halloween but it’s centered marvel, tell me what’s good!
(I look most like America btw)

So we’re just gonna ignore the whole interrogation scene of Hawkeye ep.2?
Because let me tell you, that was so inexplicably hilarious-
Hawkeye
HAWKEYE SPOILERS AHEAD PLEASE DO NOT READ IF YOU HAVEN’T WATCHED IT
now that’s out of the way...
I want to take a moment to appreciate Clint grieving Natasha. I want to appreciate the fact that it’s there, it’s present and it’s something that Clint thinks about. He gets flashbacks, he talks about her, and most of all he misses her.
Natasha was his partner, his team, his safety net and above all, his best friend. And he watched her die. He watched her make the sacrifice they’d fought so hard to avoid. She had influence over his life, to the point where the “best shot of his life” was the “shot he didn’t take”, simply because that’s what brought Clint to Nat.
Why I’m so interested in Clint specifically grieving Nat? Because it’s not often that we get to see a friendship relationship so so deep that the absence of one has some effect on the other. (also the fact that they bring the ‘a male and female, non- romantic, deep relationship’ to life perfectly, but that’s an afterthought)
Again, shit I think we need to appreciate more. Thank- you for listening. Now go back and complete the probably shit ton of work you have left.

Chapter 2 Masterlist
Chapter 1
"This is the story of how I died. Don't worry, this is actually a very fun story. And the truth is, it isn't even mine. This is the story of a girl, named Winry. And it starts, with the sun. Now, once upon a time, a single drop of sunlight fell from the heavens." A voice narrated.
A golden droplet falls from the sky and hits the ground, a soft glow spreading through the soil.
"And from this small drop of sun, grew a magic, golden, flower." It continued.
The glow grew into a beautiful, colourful flower.
"It had the ability to heal the sick, and injured."
An old, hunched over woman climbed towards the flower, hobbling.
"Oh, you see that old woman, over there? You might want to remember her. She's kind of important."
The old lady reaches for the flower, her wrinkly hands opening to grasp it. "Well, centuries passed and a hop skip and a boat ride away there grew a kingdom. The kingdom was ruled by a beloved King and Queen. And the Queen, well she was about to have a baby, and she got sick, really, sick. She was running out of time. And that's when people usually start to look for a miracle. Or in this case, a magic golden flower."
The elderly women returned with her lamp, it emitting a faint green glow. "Ahhh, I told you she'd be important. You see instead of sharing the Sun's gift, this woman, the homunculus, Lust, hoarded its healing power and used it to keep herself young for hundreds of years. And all she had to do was sing a special song."
"Flower gleam and glow, let your power shine. Make the clock reverse, bring back what once was mine, what once was mine." Lust sung.
"All right, you get the gist. She sings, she turns young. Creepy, right?" The narrator speaks.
A guard stumbled up the hill, head-turning rapidly in search of a cure. His eyes widen as he sees the gleaming flower.
"We found it!" he yelled, calling his comrades to come join him in digging up the flower.
"The magic of the golden flower, healed the queen. A healthy baby girl, a princess was born. With beautiful golden hair. I'll give you a hint. That's Winry. To celebrate her birth, the King and Queen launched a flying lantern into the sky. For that one moment, everything was perfect. And then that moment ended."
Lust, obviously aged, jumped over the castle bannister, slowly pushed the humongous nursery door open, and crept into the room.
Winry is sleeping softly the whole time in her crib, unaware of the decrepit women in her room. Lust slowly reaches into the infants crib, and softly grabs a strand of her hair. Reaching into her cloak, she pulls out a pair of glinting scissors.
"Flower, gleam and glow, let your powers shine, make the clock re----"she gasped, shocked about a few strands of the baby's hair, that had turned brown, and let it drift to the mattress, completely useless and drained of power.
"Lust broke into the castle and stole the child. Just like that... gone. The Kingdom searched and searched, but they could not find the Princess. For deep within the forest, in a hidden tower, Lust raised the child as her own."
In a large tower, hidden away from the world, Lust sat at her throne-like chair, gingerly pulling a brush through the child's gorgeous, golden locks.
"...save what was lost, bring back what once was mine, what once was mine." Winry sung, looking at the flowing flames in the fireplace.
"Lust had found her new magic flower. But this time she was determined to keep it hidden." the narrator recited.
"Why can't I go outside?" Winry inquired, curiously.
"The outside world is a dangerous place. Filled with horrible, selfish people. You must stay here, where you're safe. Do you understand, flower?" Lust demanded, ceasing to brush the young girls hair.
"Yes, Mommy." the child answered.
"But the walls of that tower could not hide everything. Each year on her birthday, the King and Queen released thousands of lanterns into the sky in hope that one day, their lost Princess would return." the voice pursued.
A green chameleon ran out onto the windowsill, and ran to hide behind a flower pot. He camouflaged himself to match the flower pot, in hopes that no one will see him.
Winry shoves the curtains to the sides, letting the light shine into the tower.
"HAH! Hmm, Well... I guess Al's not hiding out here."
Al chuckles slightly, under the impression that she hadn't seen him. Something then suddenly fastened around his ankle. Something soft. Something silky. Something gold. And then it yanked. And Al shrieked.
"GOTCHA!!! That's twenty two for me. How about twenty-three, out of forty-five?" Winry requested as she turned to look at Al's pouting face.
He shakes his head no, declining her request.
"Okay, well, what do you want to do?" Al points his jade tail out the window, indicating that he wants to go outside. "Yeah, I don't think so. I like it in here and so do you." she points at Al. He pouts.
"Oh, come on Al, it's not so bad in there." she points towards the inside of the tower.
A top a giant castle, leaping across the ultramarine tiles, three figures stop and stand, one shorter than the others, younger too.
The young man leant against a pillar, his golden hair flowing in the wind. "Wow! I could get used to a view like this." he awed, irritating the two behind him.
"Fullmetal, come on." his accomplice demanded, his long black ponytail taken by the wind.
"Hold on. Yep, I'm used to it. Guys, I want a castle." The man known as 'Fullmetal' beamed.
"We do this job, you can buy your own castle." the man said, or rated at Fullmetal's inability to take the mission seriously.
The young man walks over to the open window that leads into the hall which contains their treasure, with confidence in each passing step.
He reaches the window, and is hoisted down by his two allies for the mission, as he is the smallest of the three, although he is the least trustworthy. Why else would they trust him, a petty, thug?
The alchemist standing in front of their goldmine sneezes and, being the obvious comedian he is, the blonde just has to make a joke.
"Oh, hay fever?" he jokes, amusement laced in his voice.
"Yeah." the alchemist replies and turns to look at Fullmetal, but to his surprise, he does not see him dangling from the ceiling, holding on to the pedestal for support, that he's sure is worth much more than his life, and the crown resting in his hand.
"Huh?" The alchemist takes a double-take, unsure of what he saw. He turns around fully and his eyes widen as he sees that the crown his gone. A wave of panic sets in as he looks around frantically, until he look up, and catches a glimpse of Fullmetal's boot leaving the window.
"Wait, what? Hey, wait!" He yelled
The short man an his two taller associates leapt between the rooftops. The two were getting very annoyed with Fullmetals constant chatter.
"Can't you picture me in a castle of my own?" Fullmetal asked, amazed at the idea that he could be as rich as a man could ask for. "I mean, I certainly can. Oh, the things we've seen and it's only eight in the morning. Gentlemen, this is a very big day."

Chapter 1 Chapter 3 Masterlist
Chapter 2
Winry stood in front of her mirror, looking at her reflection, her ocean eyes staring straight back at her. Back at her very soul.
"This is it. This is a very big day, Al." She laughed.
"I'm finally going to do it. I'm going to ask her."
"Winry! Let down your hair!" She heard her mother call from the bottom of the tower.
Winry glanced at Al, her face contorted with nervousness.
"It's time." She said. Al made a few gestures with his hands, letting her know that all will be ok.
"I know, I know." She giggled, amused at his attempt to communicate. She pushed him towards her box of tools. "Come on, don't let her see you."
"Winry, I'm not getting any younger down here." her mother called again.
"Coming, mother." she replied.
Winry collected a bunch of her hair and chucked it through the window, letting it loose to fall down to the ground.
Lust grips it, and ties the hair into a large golden loop, and carefully places her foot in it.
She gives Winry a thumbs up, and the young girl proceeds to use all of her might in order to bring the older women to their home.
"Hi, welcome home, mother." Winry greets.
"Oh, Winry. How you manage to do that every single day without fail, it looks absolutely exhausting, darling." her mother compliments, completely disregarding her daughters greeting.
"Oh, it's nothing." Winry breaths, worn out from having to lift her mother seventy feet in the air.
"Then I don't know why it takes so long." Lust laughs. "
Oh, darling. I'm just teasing."
"All right...so, mother. As you know, tomorrow is a very big day." Winry starts, uneasy.
"Winry, look at that mirror. You know what I see? I see a strong, confident, beautiful young lady. Oh look, you're here too! I'm just teasing, stop taking everything so seriously." She giggles, ignoring her daughters anxious stature.
"Okay, so mother. As I was saying, tomorrow is.." Winry starts again, but she gets interrupted by Lust once more.
"Flower, mother's feeling a little run down. Would you sing for me, dear? Then we'll talk." She demands.
"OH! Of course, mother." Winry quickly grabs her mother's chair and the stool that she uses, and shove a hairbrush into her hands. She clumps a bunch of her hair onto her mother's lap and starts singing very quickly, eager to finish and ask her mother the question she's wanted to ask for a while. "Flower gleam and glow, Let your power shine, Make the clock reverse, bring back what once was mine. Heal what has been hurt, Change the fate's design. Save what has been lost, Bring back what once was mine." she chirped.
"Winry!" Lust gasped.
Winry grasped the side of Lust's chair, rocking back and forth slightly, overcome by excitement.
"So, mother, earlier I was saying tomorrow's a pretty big day, and you didn't really respond, So I'm just going to tell you. It's my birthday! TADA!" she announces.
"No, no, no can't be. I distinctly remember. Your birthday was last year." Lust dismisses.
"That's the funny thing about birthdays. They're kind of an annual thing. Mother, I'm turning eighteen. And I wanted to ask, what I really want for this birthday. Actually, what I've wanted for...quite a few birthdays now..." Winry mumbled.
"Winry please, stop with the mumbling. You know how I feel about the mumbling. Blah, blah, blah,...blah. It's very annoying. I'm just teasing, you're adorable I love you so much, darling." The older women scolded, much to her daughters dismay.
"Oh, I want to see the floating lights." she revealed, telling her mother her dream.
"What?" Lust gasped, in disbelief at her daughters request. Winry continued.
"Oh,... Well I was hoping you would take me to see the floating lights."
"Oh, you mean the stars." Lust realised, finally understanding what she meant.
"That's the thing I've charted stars and they're always constant. But these, they appear every year on my birthday, Mother. Only on my birthday. And I can't help but feel that they're, They're meant for me. I need see them, Mother. And not just from my window. In person. I have to know what they are." the girl explained.
"You want to go outside? Oh, why Winry." she waved her hand at her, gesturing to the whole of Winry. "Look at you, as fragile as a flower. Still a little sapling, just a sprout. You know why we stay up in this tower"
"I know, but..." Winry tried to reason.
"That's right, to keep you safe, and sound, dear. Guess I always knew this day was coming. Knew that soon you'd want to leave the nest. Soon, but not yet." Lust said, disappointed.
"But..." Winry tried to reason again, getting nowhere once more.
"Mothers here to help you. All I have is one request. Winry?" Lust asks.
"Yes?"
"Don't ever ask to leave this tower, again." The woman commanded.
Winry nodded sadly
"Yes, Mother." she mumbled, upset.
"Ahh, I love you very much, dear." Lust squeezed her rosy cheeks.
"I love you more." came the girls reply.
"I love you most. Don't forget it. You'll regret it. Mother Knows best." Lust walks towards the window, getting ready to descend back to the green grass below.
"I'll see you in a bit, my flower."
"I'll be here." Winry mumbled.
The thieves ran through the forest, leaping up and sliding across the ground in order to avoid any branches. They stop before an oak tree, three pieces of paper pinned to it.
"No, no no. This is bad, this is very, very bad, This is really bad. They just can't get my nose right." Fullmetal complained.
"Who cares?" His black haired comrade asked, growing more and more irritated at his antics.
"Well it's easy for you to say. You guys look amazing." He groaned
"All right, okay. Give me a boost, and I'll pull you up." He demanded.
"Give us the satchel first." His companion ordered.
Fullmetal gave him a look of hurt and disbelief.
"Wha..? I just... I can't believe, that after all we've been together, you don't trust me. Ouch."
He put his hand on his chest, shaking his head in disapproval. How could they not trust him? Sure, he's a thief and betrays most people he knows but still?
He took off the satchel and dropped it onto Tucker's arm.
The two larger men sighed and Kimblee bent over into the hard terrain in order to hoist the younger man up. His brother climbed onto his shoulders and Fullmetal climbed up their frames, being sure to 'accidentally' kick them in the face a few times as he made his climb.
Fullmetal grasped at the top of the tiny cliff side, and used all of his remaining strength to pull the rest of himself up. He looked down at the two below.
Kimblee glared at the man.
"Now help us up, pretty boy."
Fullmetal shrugged, smirking at him, eyes full of amusement.
"Sorry, my hands are full." He showed him the satchel, that was now swinging from his pointer finger, dangling in front of them mockingly. Like he had said earlier, how could they not trust him?
"What?" He checks himself for the satchel, finding it missing "FULLMETAL!" Kimblee's voice could be heard in the distance, full of rage. Fullmetal stumbled into a trail and ran down it, as fast as the wind, with the State Alchemists hot on his tail. The lieutenant looked at the others.
"Retrieve that satchel with any force."she ordered.
"YES SIR!" Came the replies as the got their guns out and shot at Fullmetal. Just before they made contact with him, he managed to slide under a huge birch log, narrowly missing the bullets. He gasped and turned around to see the bullet holes in the log before he was running again.
They kept shooting at him as he was dodging them, weaving through the thick trees until eventually, they made it to a huge tree with many big holes in it. Fullmetal jumped through the hole while the alchemists and their horses couldn't fit through the holes in front of them.
They moved however, when they're lieutenant came charging through, and leapt straight through the middle, not even bothering to look back or to help her teammates.
Hawkeye made eye contact with her horse.
"We got him now, Mustang." she said. He neighs in response.
As Fullmetal turns the corner, desperately looking for a way of escape, he sees a vine, and grabs it, launching himself into the air. He swings around the tree it was attached to, and kicks Hawkeye off of her horse. Instead of her on the back of the horse, he now is. Realising that he landed on the horse, Fullmetal attempts to grab the reigns and make Mustang gallop forward.
"Go! Heyah! Come, fleabag, forward." Mustang was having none of it, and flung himself forward in order to get rid of the thug.
"No. No, stop it. HAH! AHHHHH!"
They continue their game of cat and mouse, Fullmetal running and Mustang chasing. The horse eventually manages to get the satchel off of Fullmetal, but unfortunately it flings too far, and lands on a very thin branch, held by a bigger, not so sturdy branch.
Fullmetal crawls on the underside of the branch, determine to get his satchel back, while Mustang is walking across carefully, trying to pry Fullmetal's hands off, and grab the satchel as well. The branch was creaking and cracking continually while they were both on it. The thief managed to grab the satchel with his hands, but soon after, the branch snapped, and the both of them were falling down the cliff.
Fullmetal hit the ground with a thud, his backside hurting tremendously, but he had too much adrenaline running through his veins to care. He quickly got up, ignoring the pain, and the aching in his back, and ran as fast as fast as the wind could take him.

Chapter 3
Mustang slid down the cliff side, face first, until he reached a stop. He immediately got up, and took to looking for the short thug once more.
Fullmetal could hear the leaves rustling around him, and a neigh in the distance. He eventually came to a stop, blood rushing to his head, heart pounding, and leant against the stone next to him, hoping to catch his breath. However, that was not the case, as he fell painfully onto his side, the vines that he once thought were covering a rock wall, falling back into place.
He could see the shadow of his chaser outside the green screen that was shielding him from view. When the horse left, he let out a sigh of relief, and took a look around to gather his surroundings.
He was in a small cave, cove if you will, and there was a lot of light coming from the side. He headed toward the light.
He turned his head after checking that he wasn't followed, to see a beautiful view. A huge, gushing waterfall was at the end of the valley, and a small river. There was green grass everywhere and flowers of all kinds as far as the eye could see. There were hundreds of trees, all different shapes and sizes as well. It truly was a beautiful view.
Height in front of him stood a tower. Old, sturdy, and covered in moss and other plants. Though, there didn't seem to be an entrance. Oh well.
There was a neigh in the distance, and Fullmetal ran towards the tower. He clapped his hands together, and using alchemy, he created two arrows. He dug them between the stones of the tower, and pulled himself up to the top.
His breath was laboured once he reached the top, it wasn't everyday that he had to pull himself up a gigantic structure such as this.
The blonde checked his satchel, to make sure the crown was still in his possession and hadn't fallen out on his journey down the cliff side, or up the tower. He smirked proudly when he saw he still had it, and it was unbroken.
"Alone at last." He stated smugly.
However, everything went black a few moments later when he was hit over the head by something. The young man keels over face-first, hitting the ground hard.
Winry stood behind him, wide eyed and panting, a silver wrench in her tight grasp. She looks down at him, and then at Al, who looked at her as if she was saying:
'See if he has fangs!'
She pushes the wrench against his upper lip, pushing it back, revealing, fortunately, no fangs.
Suddenly, his eyes shot open.
"Huh?" He mumbled. Winry swung at him, knocking him out once more. Struggling, she manages to drag him across the floor, over to her wardrobe. After many attempts of trying g to get him in her closet, swinging him in using her hair, shoving him in a few times, she manages to get him in.
She backs away from the wardrobe, wrench grasped tightly in her hands, pointed at the wardrobe.
"Okay, okay, I got a person in the closet. I got a person in the closet. I got a person in my closet!" She swings her wrench around in her finger
"Too weak to handle myself out there, huh Mother? Well, Tell that to my frying pan!" The wrench hit her in the face.
"Ow!"
"Winry! Let down your hair!" She heard Lust yell.
"One moment, Mother!" She yelled back. Winry glanced at the wardrobe, and then went to help her mother up.
"I have a big surprise." Lust announced when she entered the tower.
"Uh, I do too." she replied.
"Oh, I bet my surprise is bigger."
"I seriously doubt it!"
Lust pulled out a vegetable from her basket.
"I brought back parsnips. I'm going to make hazelnut soup for dinner, your favorite. Surprise!"
"Well mother, there's something I want to tell you." Winry grinned.
"Oh Rapunzel, you know I hate leaving you after a fight." She tapped her daughters cheek.
"Especially when I've done absolutely nothing wrong."
"Okay, I've been thinking a lot about what you said, earlier." Winry changed the subject.
"I hope you're not still talking about the stars." Lust warned her.
"Floating lights, and, yes I'm leading up to that."
"Because I really thought we dropped the issue, sweetheart." She continued, giving her the 'don't push it' look.
"No Mother, I'm just saying, you think I'm not strong enough to handle myself out there." Winry ignored her mother.
"Oh darling, I know you're not strong enough to handle yourself out there." She stated.
"But if you just..." Winry tried to reason.
"Winry, we're done talking about this." She demanded.
"But trust me, I..." she tried again.
"Winry." Lust warned.
"...know what I'm" Winry continued.
"Winry---."
"Oh, come on." Winry begged.
"ENOUGH WITH THE LIGHTS, WINRY! YOU ARE NOT LEAVING THIS TOWER, EVER!" Lust screamed.
"Oh, great. Now I'm the bad guy." She shrugged.
"All I was gonna say, mother, is that... I know what I want for my birthday, now." Winry said looking down, ashamed.
"And what is that?" The black haired woman glared at her.
"New paint. That paint made from the white shells you once brought me." She requested.
"Well that is a very long trip, Rapunzel. Almost three day's time." Lust gave her a worried look.
"I just thought it was a better idea than, stars." Winry looked up at her mother.
"You sure you'll be all right, on your own?" She asked, concerned.
"I know I'm safe, as long as I'm here." Winry hugged Lust.
"I'll be back in three days time. I love you very much, dear." She said as she pet her hair.
"I love you more." Winry rested he head on her chest.
"I love you most." She rested her head on her daughters.

Chapter 4
She pulls the chair out from under the handle of the wardrobe, opening it. Fullmetal flops out and face plants the floor.
Al wacks Fullmetal's face a few times with his tail, trying to wake him up. He fails, and eventually sticks his tongue in his ear.
"AHH!" He yells, awake. He pulls against his restraints.
"Wha..? Is this...hair?" Golden hair was wrapped tightly around his wrists, preventing him from moving in the slightest. He heard a voice.
"Struggling...struggling is pointless. I know why you're here. And I'm not afraid of you."
"What?" Fullmetal raised an eyebrow, confused.
"Who are you, and how did you find me?" The voice asked. Something, or rather someone, dropped from the ceiling, the hair that was restraining him stemming from their head. A figure walked into the light. It was a woman. One with golden hair, shining in the sunlight.
"Ah hah." Fullmetal was in awe. She had gorgeous ocean blue eyes, and a beautiful face to match.
"Who are you, and how did you find me?" She pressed again.
Fullmetal cleared his throat, swallowing the lump that formed there. He was facing the floor.
"I know not who you are. Nor how I came to find you. But may I just say." He lifted his head.
"Hi! How you doing? The names Fullmetal Alchemist. How's your day going, huh?" He gave her a smug smile, and raised in eyebrows, in an attempt to flirt.
"Who else knows my location, Fullmetal Alchemist?" She questioned. What is with this woman and her questions?
"All right, Blondie." He started.
"Winry."
"Here's the thing. I was in a situation, Gallivanting through the forest. I can across your tower and..." The young man looked around in panic.
"Ho, ho no, where is my satchel?"
"I've hidden it, somewhere you'll never find it." She crossed her arms over her chest.
"It's in the pot, isn't it." He deadpanned.
She hit him over the head with her wrench and hid the satchel somewhere else, somewhere he was sure to never find. Under the stairs. Al the stuck his tongue into the man's ear, to wake him up again.
"Ugh! would you stop that?!" He yelled.
"Now it's hidden where you'll never find it. So, what do you want, with my hair? To cut it?"
"What?" He was even more puzzled now.
"Sell it?"
"No! Listen, the only thing I want to do with your hair, is to get out of it. Literally!"
"Wait, you don't want my hair?"
"Why on earth would I want your hair?" He tried to move his hands to talk.
"Look, I was being chased, I saw a tower, I climbed it, end of story."
"You're, telling the truth?" She asked, tilting her head, now confused as well.
"YES!"
She turned away and started to talk to her pet lizard.
"Hmmm. I know. I need someone to take me. I think he's telling the truth, too. He doesn't have fangs! but what choice do I have?" Al was communicating with her using his hands. She turned back to Fullmetal "Okay Fullmetal Alchemist, I'm prepared to offer you a deal."
"Deal?" He asked.
Winry pointed at her painting on the wall.
"Look this way. Do you know what these are?"
"You mean the lantern thing they do for the princess?"
"Lanterns... I knew they weren't stars." She grumbled. "Well, tomorrow evening they will light the night sky, with these lanterns. You will act as my guide, Take me to these lanterns, and return me home safely. Then, and only then, will I return your satchel to you. That is my deal."
"Yeah, no can do. Unfortunately, the kingdom and I are not exactly, simpatico, at the moment. So I won't be taking you anywhere." He pursed his lips, apologetic.
"Something brought you here, Fullmetal Alchemist. Call it what you will, fate, destiny-"
"A horse." He chimed in.
"So I have made the decision to trust you-"
"A horrible decision, really."
"But trust me, when I tell you this." She grabbed him by the shoulder and pulled him forward, so that they were face to face. "You can tear this tower apart, brick by brick. but without my help, you will never find your precious satchel." She threatened. Fullmetal averted his eyes, terrified of the woman before him. He cleared his throat.
"Let me just get this straight." He looked back to the blonde. "I take you to see the lanterns. Bring you back home. and you'll give me back my satchel?"
"I promise. And when I promise something, I never ever break that promise." She looked into his eyes. They were so blue. So beautiful. There were oceans inside of them. He could swim in her eyes forever.
"EVER!" She continued and he snapped out of his thoughts and blushed.
"All right, listen, I didn't want to have to want to do this, but you leave me no choice. Here comes the smolder." He smirked at her and made a weird face. His eyebrows creased upwards and he pursed his lips. Winry just continued to glare at the man.
"This is kind of an off day for me.This doesn't normally happen."
The glare continued to ware him down.
"Fine, I'll take you to see the lanterns." He gave in.
"Really!" She exclaimed, jumping up and down in excitement She did a little mini victory dance. Fullmetal fell to the floor, face first.
"Ooops."
"You broke my smolder" he groaned.

Chapter 5
Fullmetal was hanging by the arrows he had stuck into the stones.
"You coming, Blondie?"
Winry jumped, her hair in the loop she used to pull her mother up. She fell all the way down but stopped just before her feet could touch the ground. The grass was a lush green, and looked so soft. She gulped. Her feet grazed the grass and giggled. It tickled her feet like little feathers. Once her feet were on the ground she wiggled her toes around to get used to the feeling of the grass. She grinned from ear to ear. Finally. After eighteen years. She was outside!
Over the next few hours Winry's emotions were going haywire and in all honesty, Fullmetal was kind of sick of it.
She went from disbelief and 'I can't believe I did this' to concern and 'Mother will be so furious' to
'That's okay though, what she doesn't know won't kill her, right?' and 'Oh my gosh, this will kill her.' to 'THIS IS SO FUN!' and back to 'I am a horrible dauughter, I'm going back.' and then back to 'I am never going back!' again. Then came the self-loathing of 'I am a despicable human being.' and then she went back to happiness of 'WAHHOOOOO! Best day, ever!'
Now, here we are, with Winry crouched down leaning against a rock, sobbing. Fullmetal sighed and cleared his throat.
"You know, I can't help but notice, you seem a little at war with yourself, here." He mentioned to the other blonde.
"Really?" She looked up at him in awe of his 'observational' skills.
"Now, I'm only picking up bits and pieces. Overprotective mother, forbidden road trip. This is serious stuff. But let me ease your conscience. This is part of growing up. A little rebellion, a little adventure. That's good, healthy even." He told her. Winry laughed.
"You think?" She gave him a weak smile.
"I know. You're way over thinking this, trust me. Does your mother deserve it? No Will this break her heart and crush her soul? Of course. But you just got to do it."
"Break her heart?" Her eyes widened.
"In half." He stated while rolling a grape around on the stone.
"Crush her soul?"
"Like a grape." He squeezed the grape between his fingers until it burst.
"She would be heart broken, you're right."
"I am, aren't I?" He laughed. "Oh, bother. All right, I can't believe I'm saying this, but...I'm letting you out of the deal."
"What?" Winry looked at him in disbelief.
"That's right. But don't thank me. Let's just turn around, and get you home, here's your wrench, here's your frog. I get back my satchel. You get back a mother daughter relationship based on mutual trust and viola!" He waved his hand. "We part ways as unlikely friends." He put his out for a handshake.
"No, I am seeing those lanterns." She insisted. Fullmetal face twisted into one of frustration and he waved his arms about, annoyed.
"Oh, come on!" He yelled "What is it going to take to get my satchel back?"
Winry held her wrench up to his neck. "I will use this." He put his hands up in defence. The bushes beside them rustled and Winry screamed. She ran behind Fullmetal and jumped on to him, pointing her wrench at the bushes, her body scrambling to stay upright while holding onto him.
"Is it, ruffians, thugs? Have they come for me?!" She yelled, panicked. A rabbit hopped out of the bush.
"Stay calm, it can probably smell fear." Fullmetal told her, his voice void of any emotion.
"Oh, sorry. Getting just a little bit, jumpy." She laughed nervously, and rubbed the back of her neck.
"Probably be best if we avoid ruffians and thugs, though." The blonde man smirked.
"Yeah, that's probably best."
"Are you hungry? I know a great place for lunch." He suddenly suggested. Winry's stomach grumbled, and only then did she realise that she was starving.
"Where?" She asked.
"Oh, don't you worry. You'll know it when you smell it."
Lust was walking around the forest, basket in hand and hood pulled over her head, when Mustang suddenly jumped out of the bushes, smelling the dirt below him.
"Oh, a Palace horse." Then she realised. "Where's your rider?" She looked back in the direction of the tower. "Winry."
She ran. She ran as fast as the wind could take her. As fast as lightning. She tripped on her cloak a few times but gathered herself quickly before continuing. When she reached the base of tower she yelled "WINRY! Winry let down your hair!"
There was no answer. Lust panicked and ran towards the back of the tower, The overgrown vines that were there was covering a secret entrance, and old wooden door. She burst in and ran to her daughters room.
"Winry?" Still no answer.
"WINRY? WINRY!" She continued to yell. Still no answer. She ran around the tower, ransacking everything to find something, some sort of note from Winry to know where she was possibly, or a clue as to where she went or who took her precious daughter.
Winry and Fullmetal were walking around, Fullmetal guiding Winry with his hands lying on her lower back.
"I know it's around here, somewhere." He mumbled, eyes wandering looking for the place he was taking her for lunch. "Ah, there it is. The Snuggly duckling." There was a concerned look on Winry's face. "Don't worry, very quaint place, perfect for you. Don't want you scaring, and giving up on this endeavor now do we?"
"Well, I do like ducklings." The woman chuckled nervously.
"YAY!" He opened the door. "Scar, your finest table, please." Winry gasped. There were ruffians and criminals everywhere.
"You smell that? Take a deep breath through the nose. Really, let that seep in. What are you getting?" He asked her, pushing her through the crowd of rogues. "Because to me, it's part man smell and the other part is really bad man smell. I don't know why, but overall, it smells like the color brown. Your thoughts?" He continued.
"That's a lot of hair." A large man said, holding her golden hair. Winry screamed and ran, her hair flowing through his hands like a river, never stopping.
"She's growing it out, is that blood on your moustache? Goldie, look at this, look at all the blood on his moustache. Good sir, that's a lot of blood." He told the man. He noticed that Winry was looking queasy, as if she'd chuck up a waterfall.
"Hey, you don't look so good, Blondie. Maybe we should get you home. Call it a day. Probably better off. This is a five star joint after all. And if you can't handle this place, well maybe you should be back in your tower." As he was guiding her towards the exit, one of the men slammed the door shut.
"Is this you?" He growled, holding up a poster of what Winry assumed to be Fullmetal, the only difference being the fact that he had a Pinocchio nose.
"Ugh, now they're just being mean." He groaned.
"Oh, it's him all right. Isaac, go find some guards. That reward is going to buy me new glasses." Another one of them said.
"I can use the money." Another chimed.
"What about me? I'm broke. GET BACK!!" One yelled from the back. A brawl broke out, each one of them throwing and pulling Fullmetal about.
"Please, stop!" Winry yelled, worried for his safety and how she would cope getting to see the lights without his help.
"We can work this out." They we're stretching him out like he was some elastic toy.
"Hey, leave him alone." She shouted.
"Please." Fullmetal begged.
"Give me back my guide!! Ruffians!!" She started pulling them off of Fullmetal. She stood on top of one of the wooden tables and screamed at the top of her lungs.
"Put him down! Okay, I don't know where I am, and I need him to take me to see the lanterns, because I've been dreaming about them my entire life. Find your humanity! Haven't any of you ever had a dream?"
All of the thugs looked at her, and then they began to say all of their dreams. One just wanted to find love and have children, another wanted to reconnect with his family again, and one wanted to be a florist. Winry also found out that Fullmetal wanted to know about a gemstone in order to get his limbs back, and to be rich.
"I found the guards!" The guy known as 'Issac' shouted as he slammed open the door.
"Where's Ryder, where is he? I know he's in here somewhere. Find him, turn the place upside down if you have to!" Hawkeye yelled to her guards. The thug with the glasses took them to the back of the place and showed them a secret escape entrance. He signaled for them to go down.
"Go, live your dream." He told them.
"I will." Fullmetal said, nodding to him.
"Your dream stinks, I was talking to her."
"Thanks for everything." Winry said, and kissed him on the cheek before going down the hole. He waved to them and shut the flap.
"I believe this is the man you're looking for." Isaac held up a small man with glasses and a handlebar moustache.
"You got me." He held up his hands.
"Ma'am, there's no sign of Fullmetal." A guard said. Suddenly, the door flung open and Mustang stomped through the door. He started sniffing the floor.
"Mustang. What he's doing?" One of the guards asked.
"A passage, come on men, let's go. Jean, make sure those boys don't get away." Hawkeye ordered. Kimblee elbowed Jean in the stomach and grabbed his spear, breaking Tucker's handcuffs. Tucker then broke his.
"Play it safe. Or go get the crown." Kimblee told him.
Outside of the bar, the short, grey haired man was leaning against the wall, when he saw Lust.
"Ohhh, somebody get me a glass. 'Cause I just found me a tall drink of water." He flirted. Lust covered her mouth as she laughed.
"Oh stop it, you big lug." Her face suddenly fell and she pulled a knife out and held it to the man's face. "Where's that tunnel lead out?" She demanded.

Chapter 6
As the two companions were walking down the dark tunnel, Fullmetal decided to make conversation.
"Well, I've gotta say. Didn't know you had that in you back there, that was pretty...impressive." He told the girl.
"I know! I know... Sooo, Fullmetal. Where are you from?" She asked.
"Whoa, whoa, sorry Blondie, I don't do back story. However I am becoming very interested in yours. Now I...I know I'm not suppose to mention the hair."
"Nope." She agreed.
"Or, the Mother." He went on.
"Uh, uh."
"Frankly I'm too scared to ask about the frog."
"Chameleon." She corrected him.
"Nuance. Here's my question, though, if you want to see the lanterns so badly, why haven't you gone before?" They had reached the end of the tunnel. They were standing on a ledge, in the middle of a huge damn, or water system.
"Uhh, hey, well..." she saw two men down below them. "Uh, Fullmetal... Fullmetal! Who's that?" She pointed to the men.
"They don't like me." He told her, grabbing her shoulder to pull her towards the exit. The alchemists appeared at the exit of the tunnel.
"Who's that?" She asked again.
"They don't like me either." Came his reply. Mustang appeared.
"Who's that?"
"Lets just assume for the moment, that everyone here doesn't like me." He yelled. Winry passed him her wrench
"Here."
She ran towards the edge. Fullmetal's eyes widened as she hooked her hair around a block of wood and swung off the ledge. He turned back to Hawkeye.
"I've waited a long time for this." She said.
All of the guards attack him. He dodged and blocks the attacks with ease using the wrench and counter-attacks. He knocks all of them out quickly.
"Oh mama, I have got to get me one of these." He yelled with joy. He turns to see Mustang holding a dagger in his mouth. The horse begins to attack him.
"HAH!" He yelled. "You should know, that this is the strangest thing I've ever done!" Mustang flings the wrench out of his hand. Fullmetal puts his hands up. "How 'bout two out of three?" Mustang holds the dagger closer to his face.
"Fullmetal!" He heard Winry yell. Suddenly, hair was wrapped around his wrist and just before he was pulled of the edge he saluted Mustang. He almost hit the ground.
"Fullmetal, look out!" Winry yelled. He tucked into a ball, barely missing the floor. He turned around to see the alchemists getting back up. He laughed. He began running over one of the water systems, it falling behind him with each step.
"HAH! You should see your faces 'cause you look..." he swung straight into a block of wood. "Ridiculous..." he groaned.
Suddenly, water began pouring out everywhere. Fullmetal and Winry ran towards what they thought was an exit, and just as they entered it, the entrance caved in, with no exit. Water was piling in. Fast. Fullmetal dove into the water to try and find a way out. He cut his hand on one of the rocks, but there was no way out. It was no use. They were just wasting time.
"It's no use, I can't see anything." He said. Winry dove in and he pulled her back up.
"Hey, there's no point. It's pitch black down there."
"This is all my fault. She was right, I never should have done this. I'm so... I'm so sorry, Fullmetal." She sobbed.
"Edward." He said suddenly.
"What?" She looked at him, puzzled.
"My real name is, Edward Elric. So you might as well know." He laughed awkwardly. Winry figured since they were sharing, why not tell him about her hair.
"I have magic hair that glows when I sing." She said, smiling gently at him.
"What?" He gasped.
"I have..." her face light up at the realisation, and she looked at him "magic hair, that glows when I sing! Flower gleam and glow. Let your power shine." The water reached the top and so they both took deep breathes and then saw her hair flow to where there was air. Fullmetal clawed at the rocks and managed to push his hand through. The rocks toppled over and they were released, both bent over and gasping desperately for air.
"We made it." She breathed out, still in shock.
"Your hair glows." Fullmetal's eyes widened.
"We're alive! We're alive!" Winry got up and started dancing, celebrating happily.
"Didn't see that coming. Her hair actually glows." He was still in shock.
"Edward..." Winry giggled.
"Why does her hair glow?" Fullmetal asked Al.
"Edward!" She shouted.
"WHAT?" He yelled back.
"It doesn't just glow." Al smiled at him. Fullmetal looked back from the chameleon to Winry, scared.
"Why is he smiling at me?"
"I'll kill him. I'll kill that Fullmetal. We'll cut him off for the kingdom. Get back the crown, come on." Kimblee yelled as he and Tucker stumbled out of a rotting tree trunk, drenched in water. Lust came out behind one of the gorgeous green trees of the forest.
"Bo-oys!... perhaps you want to stop acting like wild dogs chasing their tails, and think for a moment." They Botha pulled out daggers and got into a fighting stance, prepared to kill her if she attacked them. She laughed.
"Oh, please there's no need for that. Well if that's all you desire, then be on your way! I was going to offer you something worth one thousand crowns, would have made you rich beyond belief. And that wasn't even the best part. Oh well, C'est la vie. Enjoy your crown." She waved at them and began to walk off. The men looked at each other.
"What's the best part?" Kimblee asked her. She stopped in her tracks. She turned around with an evil grin on her face.
"It comes with revenge on the Fullmetal Alchemist."

Chapter 1 Chapter 8 Masterlist
Chapter 7
Winry and Fullmetal were sat on two different logs. Winry was holding Fullmetal's injured hand with hers as she wrapped her hair around it.
"So you're being strangely cryptic as you wrap your magic hair around my injured hand." He grunted in pain.
"Sorry. Just don't...don't freak out." She asked. He looked at Al worriedly but the chameleon just looked up at him with a smug grin. That scared him more.
She began to sing. The glow that came to her golden hair came back, and travelled up to the hair that was wrapped around his hand. The glow made her hair appear a yellow colour and it reminded him a lot of the sun.
After she had finished singing she pulled her hair off of his hand and he brought it up to his face to see. His eyes widened to the point where you could probably cook a full English breakfast on them. The injury had disappeared. His jaw dropped and he was going to scream.
"Please don't freak out!" She panicked. His scream got caught in his throat.
"Ahhh. I'm not freaking out, are you freaking out? No, I'm just very interested in your hair and the magical qualities that it possesses..how long has it been doing that, exactly?" He rubbed his neck nervously, ranting. Winry laughed nervously.
"Uh. Forever, I guess. Mother said when I was a baby people tried to cut it. They wanted to take it for themselves. But, once it's cut." She pulled her hair behind her ear, and a stray piece popped out. It was a light brown. "It turns brown, and looses it's power. A gift like that, it has to be protected. That's why Mother never let me...That's why I...I never left the..."
"You never left that tower. And you're still gonna go back?" He asked, finishing her sentence for her.
"No...yes. Ugh. It's complicated.
So, Edward Elric, huh." She teased him, quickly changing the subject. Fullmetal caught on to what she was doing and played along.
"Ah yeah, well. I'll spare you the sob story of poor orphan Eugene Fitzherbert, it's a little bit ah... It's a little bit of a downer." He looked to her to see if she wanted to hear his 'sob story'. She shuffled closer to him in order to hear better. Fullmetal smiled slightly.
"There was this book." He began. "A book I used to read every night to all the younger kids. The tales of The Fullmetal Alchemist. Swashbuckling rogue, richest man alive. Not bad with the ladies, either. Not that he'd ever brag about it, of course."
"Was he a thief too?" She was curious.
"Ahh, well no. Actually, he had enough money to do whatever he wanted to do. He could go wherever he wanted to go. And...and, for a kid, with nothing. I don't know, I... It just seemed like a better option. You can't tell anyone, about this, okay? It could ruin my whole reputation." He requested.
"Ahh, you wouldn't want that." She teased.
"Oh, a fake reputation is all that a man has. Um, well I should uh... I, I should get some more firewood." He got up quickly, embarrassed. Just before he could leave she grabbed his wrist.
"Hey. For the record, I like Edward Elric much better than, the Fullmetal Alchemist." She grinned at him. He gave her a small smile back.
"Well, then you'd be the first. But, thank you." He walked off. She sighed happily to herself, glad to be on this adventure, and to be what seems to be bonding, with Edward.
"Well, I thought he'd never leave." A voice from behind her said. Winry's eyes widened and she turned around so quickly it's a surprise she didn't have whiplash.
"Mother?" She asked, eyebrows furrowed, trying to see the figure that stood before her. Lust stepped out from behind the trees.
"Hello, dear." She smiled slyly at her.
"...How did you find me?" Winry stammered.
"Oh, it was easy really. I just listened to the sound of complete and utter betrayal, and followed that."
"Mother..." Winry looked down ashamed.
"We're going home. Now." The older woman demanded.
"You...You don't understand. I've been on the most incredible journey. I've seen and learned so much. I even met someone." She smiled to herself, remembering her and Edward's earlier conversation.
"Yes, the wanted thief. I'm so proud. Come on." She continued to shop Winry.
"Mother, wait. I think... I think he likes me." She beamed.
Her mother than began a lecture on how she knows best, and threw the crown at Winry, saying that he's only there because of that before leaving.
"So, hey uh, can I ask you something? Is there any chance that I'm going to get super strength in my hand? Because I'm not going to lie - that would be stupendous. Hey, you all right?" He noticed how upset she looked.
"Oh, sorry, yes. Just um, lost in thought, I guess." She reassured him to no avail. He didn't buy it. The smile she gave him didn't reach her eyes and was one of the most male ones he'd seen. Usually her smiles were beautiful. They could light up a whole room. When she smiled her eyes smiled and the rest of the world smiled along too. But he pretended to buy it. If she didn't want to tell him he wouldn't pry. As he usually would.
"I mean because here's the thing. Superhuman good looks, I've always had 'em. Born with it, but superhuman strength? Imagine the possibilities, I'm just..."
Up in the shadows, Kimblee, Lust and Tucker were all crouched behind a bush. Kimblee went to get up to attack them but Lust put her hand up as a signal to stop him.
"Patience boys. All good things to those who wait." She said. They bothe rolled their eyes. How long was this going to take? When could they finally get their revenge and rid the world of the Fullmetal Alchemist?

Chapter 1 Chapter 9 Masterlist
Chapter 8
It was dusk when Fullmetal woke up to a wet liquid on his face. He opened his eyes to see Mustang standing over him, panting.
"Hmm, what? Well I hope you're here to apologize." Mustang attacked him. Winry woke up to Fullmetal's screams. "AHHHH! No, no put me down. NO, NO!"
"Release him." She now stood in front of Mustang, pointing downwards. He dropped Fullmetal but still held his boot in his mouth.
"OW!" Fullmetal yelled as he hit the ground. Winry saw that his foot was shiny and gasped. Now she understood what he meant back in the pub about getting his limbs back. He was missing a leg. That also explains why he was always covering up everything. Mustang tried to attack Fullmetal again when he blew a raspberry at him.
"Whoa! Whoa, whoa-whoa-whoa. Easy boy, easy, calm down. Easy boy. Easy. That's it. Now sit. Sit. Good, now drop the boot. Drop it." She demanded. He obeyed and dropped the leather boot in the floor and Fullmetal scrambled to grab it.
"Oh, you are such a good boy. Yes you are. You all tired, chasing the bad man all over the place?"
"Excuse me?" Fullmetal asked, offended.
"Nobody appreciates you, do they? Do they?" She rubbed under his chin and he neighed happily in content.
"Come on, he's a bad horse." He complained.
"Aw, he's nothing but a big sweetheart. Isn't that right?" She looked at his collar. "Mustang."
"You've got to be kidding me." He rolled his eyes. She completely ignored him and started talking to the horse next to him.
"Look, today is kinda the biggest day of my life. And I need, I need you not to get him arrested. Just for twenty four hours and then, you can chase each other to your hearts content. Okay? And it's also my birthday. Just so you know." She told him. Mustang continued to glare but neighed to tell her that he wouldn't get him arrested.
"Thank you." She walked off and when he knew she wouldn't turn around, Mustang kicked Fullmetal in the stomach. Fullmetal fell to the floor and groaned in pain.
When they entered the kingdom people kept getting caught in Winry's hair. They had to pile it up and carry it and run. Fullmetal looked around as best as he could with the hair in his arms, covering his eyes. He looked to the side to see four little girls plaiting each other's hair. He dropped Winry's hair and whistles to them. Winry looked behind her because she felt a weight and looked to see the four girls running over to Fullmetal. He pointed to Winry's hair and their eyes lit up with excitement. What was he saying to them and why did he point to her hair?
Turns out they wanted to plait it. It would make it a lot easier to move around. So, she let them. They found an area with not many people and the started to plait her hair, putting all kinds of plants and flowers into her hair as well. After they were finished, she went to find Fullmetal. When she did, she did a little twirl to show all of the flowers. She looked absolutely gorgeous. Like a goddess. Scratch that. She was a goddess. Her beauty rivalled that of Aphrodite.
The two of them, with Mustang and Al, walked around the kingdom, going to all kinds of different stalls. Fullmetal ended up buying a hand-sewn handkerchief with the kingdoms symbol on it. He turned around to give it to Winry only to see her gone and a huge crowd forming. He pushed his way through the crowd to see her grinning from ear to ear while dancing with the other civilians. He smiled widely. He didn't know why, but he really liked to see her happy. She skipped over to him and pulled him to join her in the line of people dancing. He laughed and joined her.
When night fell, he took her to the edge of the kingdom, where there was a boat waiting. They both got in but Mustang had to wait where they were before.
"Hey Mustang." He looked up at Fullmetal and then down when a bag of red apples where thrown in front of him. He gave the blonde a look.
"What? I bought them." He narrowed his eyes at him suspiciously before leaning down to take a bite of one.
"Most of them." His head snapped up as fast as lightening. The man laughed. He yelled when he got hit in the head by one of the apples and Winry giggled. Fullmetal turned to glare at Mustang when Winry grabbed him by the shoulder.
"Where are we going?"
"Well, best day of your life. I figured you should have a decent seat.
You okay?" He noticed the nervous look on her face.
"I'm terrified."
He cocked his head to the side.
"Why?"
"I've been looking out the window for eighteen years. Dreaming about what it would feel like when those lights rise in the sky. What if it's not everything that I dreamed it would be?" She was rubbing her hands together while looking up at him with her big blue eyes. He grabbed her hands.
"It will be." He reassured her.
"And what if it is? What then?"
"Well that's the good part, I guess. You get to go find a new dream." He smiled at her lovingly.
She had given him the satchel. But he wasn't happy. He didn't want it. Because that would mean they would separate and he might never see her again.
The lights were beautiful. Absolutely gorgeous. But he couldn't really focus on them. He was too busy looking at the woman in front of him. She was in complete awe at the lights. He pulled the two lanterns he had hidden to surprise her with out. She gasped when the man tapped her on the shoulder and she saw the lanterns. They both lit them up and set them free to roam the sky, without a care in the world.
Fullmetal grabbed Winry by the chin and they both leant in, both wanting this, both wanting to be together. Just before he shut his eyes and their lips made contact, he caught a glimpse of two men. Kimblee and Tucker. He gasped and pulled back, disappointed and scared. Scared that Winry would get hurt. Because of him.
