Sometime, he wasn't sure when exactly, he had stopped to rip off a piece of his shirt, and tie it snuggly around his foot. He'd long ago grown accustomed to the empty feeling in his stomach, giving up on food when his only options were high up in trees that he couldn't well climb with one foot cut open along the bottom ( Read more... ) -
[ AU ] Central City, Amestris, 1918 -- Part IV
If the third branch had been impressive, the main library was nothing short of stunning. A vast building, constructed of smooth grey bricks, stone pillars, and a long, wide staircase leading up to the main entrance.

Neither of the boys seemed to mind, and ( Read more... ) -

He hid himself inside of the cart he shared with Moril (and now his brother), his right arm slung over a wine jug to hold the metal away from his body. He grumbled, and shifted, trying ( Read more... ) -
