Author’s Note – written for the fma_fic_contest for the prompt “pompousity & pretentious”. It tied for 3rd and the really cool banner was made b y sky_dark. Thanks to evil_little_dog for the quickie beta. Hohenheim was chattering about this during the home stretch of nanowrimo. Luckily I had time to finish both. And this one did not want to be 1000 words or less.

Wages of Sin

Disclaimer- never has been mine, all rights belong to Arakawa

Pairing – Hohenheim/O.C.

Word count – 7089
Rating- PG-13
Author’s Note – written for the fma_fic_contest for the prompt ‘sin.’ I’ve been wanting to write young Hoheheim ever since he first cropped up in chapter 74. This isn’t quite what I originally had in mind but it was the story he wanted to tell. thanks to evil_little_dog for the beta
Warning – I guess original characters might warrant a warning since a lot of people don’t care for them. Then again, you sort of have to expect them since this is taking place - centuries? Longer? - before the beginning of the main story (has the actual date on the disappearance of Xerxes been documented?)
Author’s Note #2 – While this did run as one long piece for the contest, I’m breaking it in two here. It’ll be easier to deal with (for those who prefer to wait until all chapters are up, there will be only two and both will go up this week)
