I don't mind whether one is a soldier or both are, whether they live together or apart. I would just love a fluffy but serious story about a forbidden relationship during wartime. My only conditions are: No character death (OC death is ok, but I'm a cryer), and at some point someone -several people, even better - finds out about them but reexamines their beliefs/ accepts reluctantly. My first request! Fill this and I'll love you forever c:

It's 2am what am I still doing up?The drag from one of the coffin nails filled his lungs with pungent smoke. Arthur couldn't stand the smell of those things, nor could he understand how one could. Not a soldier, at least. Not after the horrible memories that came with being on the tail end of a suicide club

As an American, Alfred liked to think he could smell trouble miles away. When they got out of bed that morning, he definitely felt something was wrong, and it had nothing to do with the hangover he had.
The streets were dead. This should have been a sign to turn around, crawl back into bed, and just sleep the day away. But no. Arthur just had to get fresh eggs this morning, because even though they were very expensive, you just couldn't get them on the front

Very cool start, anon. If you are going to use WWII slang, then maybe you can add a brief "Vocabulary" section at the end of your post. That way anons can check words as they appear and don't have to ask you, which can make people get discouraged.
OP is ridiculously happy

So the redcaps want to execute them for being gay? I'll admit I'm a little confused here, but at the same time I love the tone you've struck here, getting straight into the rough soldierly atmosphere with Arthur going on about the cigarettes. Keep up the good work, anon!
Just wondering, A!A - no rush or anything, but as it's been a few weeks since you posted this, are you planning on continuing it? Because if not... The request is still gladly open to anyone else...
