Word Count 3,921

Summary Kimbley had a rough start in life but he ended up right where he wanted to be.
Author’s Note #1 - written for fmagiftexchange with the prompt of "kimblee's life prior to his service in the Ishval War. I'm just curious about what his life was like, so any sort of story would be appreciated. (possible topics to get you thinking: his training as an alchemist, family life, possible past occupation or criminal activity)" I gave Zolf sort of a Charles Manson upbringing and drew from the psychosexual fantasies of a few other serial killers in building his psychopathy. Since it's all through his eyes, I had Kimbley thinking of himself by his first name as we usually do. Thanks to evil_little_dog for the beta.

Title- Allegory
Author - cornerofmadness
Fandom- Fullmetal Alchemist
Rating - PG-13
Characters- Winry, Roy, implied Ed/Winry
Timeline/Spoilers- set after 108 so spoilers for everything
Summary- She can’t believe he doesn’t know the wrench is an allegory
Word Count- 300
warnings- none
Author’s Note-written mostly because I’m surprised how many people don’t get Winry’s wrench is an allegory, it’s a hyperspace mallet. Winry has her wrench, Riza her gun, Kaori her mallet, Sanzo his fan, Kamiya her shenai, Sango her hiraikotsu, you get the idea. It’s not meant to be serious. And thanks to my flist who gave me copious examples, which are not all listed here.

( You’d have to be a complete idiot to think I actually hit Ed in the head with a wrench )

Title- Be Not Proud
Author - cornerofmadness
Fandom- Fullmetal Alchemist
Rating - PG-13
Characters- Pinako
Timeline/Spoilers- set after 108 so spoilers for everything
Summary- Everyone is leaving her
Word Count- 300
warnings- canon character death
Author’s Note-It struck me odd just how calm Pinako was about Hohenheim’s fate. I felt she must be hiding her feelings well. Also partially inspired by my grandmother (who’ll be 95 next week) and many of my former patients as they outlived their friends.


( I have so few friends left )

Of its own
It sings to see itself again
It sings to hear the voice it's known
It sings to recognize the face – Suzanne Vega, Blood Sings
