Fic Update - Sorrow's Dark Array Chapter Twelve

Sorrow’s Dark Array
Author - cornerofmadness
Disclaimer - not mine, all characters belong to Hiromu Arakawa et al, Square Enix and funimition.
Pairing – Roy/Riza, Ed/Win (eventually) Winry/OC, mentions of Maes/Gracia and Al/OC
Rating – will vary from chapter to chapter, mostly Pg-13 but will eventually contain well marked adult chapters.
Time Line – anime based, spoilers all the way through the anime and the movie and does have strong manga elements such as Armstrong’s older sister and the land of Xing
Summary – As Roy and Riza prepare for their wedding, while dodging assassins, Ed and Al try to find their way back home.
Author’s Note #1– This was written after much prodding by evil_little_dog as a sequel to the source of sorrow and is now her holiday gift even if she has beta’ed part of it. So thanks to her and lyricnonsense for the beta. You do not have to read the first story to understand this. You’ll quickly pick up that Riza has retired from the military to be Roy’s wife and bodyguard. Olivia Armstrong is now president and she’s assigned Roy as the ambassador to Ishbal; oh and that Roy was severely injured in the destruction of the Gate, requiring some of Winry’s automail.
Author's Note #2 - This is a longer work and like real relationships, the ones listed in the pairings, take time to mend and come together. They have to work at it. Hope you enjoy the ride.
Author's Note #3 - There are a few hyperlinks to pictures, ignore or look at your whim. All the pictures are from various bed and breakfastes

“Days of absence, sad and dreary, Clothed in sorrow's dark array, Days of absence, I am weary; She I love is far away.” – Shakespeare

( Brother’s learned to swear in at least three Earth languages,” Al supplied ruefully )

chapter thirteen

Jurassic Park

Pittsburgh has a very nice museum with some of the best dinosaur displays anywhere (back in the 1880's Mr Carneige forged his pipeline to the West were most of the bones come frmo in the states). They just redid the exhibit so the parents and I went. Sadly it was NOT done on time so T-Rex is missing but I did get plenty of others.

raptor-types

a pair of apatosauruses

allosaurus, T-Rex’s little cousin

Stegosaurus one of my faves

archopteryx

dinsosaur overlook

the evolution of horses

Also hit the Egyptian exhibit, the Polar exhibit and the Native American exhibit.
mummies

And spent a lot of time in the gem and mineral exhibit. Dad used to know the curator there back in the 70's & 80's. I love rocks. no, really. I don't like geology per se but i like looking at and working with rock.

Hey Indy, I beat you to it

We also hit the life on Mars exhibit. We THOUGHT it would be some scientific thing. instead it was an art exhibit depicting 'life on mars' and/or the alienation of man. It was like uh....okay, don't get it.

such is life.
