These are pieces of fiction written by others that I like enough to actually incorperate as a part of my characterization of Dante and part of the gaping backstory.
-
Requiem For a Mother's Love by
theladyfeylene~~Homunculus have no souls, and therefor no emotions. Dante never once entertains that this could be wrong, even when her faith is challenged by questions of the past.
-
If Thine Eye Offends by
theladyfeylene~~Dante couldn't stand to look at him; she hated his face.
-
The Sacred and Profane by
theladyfeylene~~It was an awkward mating dance, this half-courtship between the cursed prophet and the mute priestess. They spoke with their eyes and with careful, reverent touches- as though both were afraid the other would break.(R content)
-
The Mortal Coil by
theladyfeylene~~What a pity it was, that mortal bodies were so prey to the claws of time. Dante only wanted to remember when she was young and new.(Slightly R content)
-
A Game of Queens and Princes by
theladyfeylene~~Dante was willing to allow Envy certain privileges, but lately he had been pushing his boundaries...(R content)
-
Tabula Rasa by
hieronymousb~~This was initially supposed to cover everything up until Envy's creation, but I didn't get that far. Not even CLOSE. So instead of "Dante's and Hohenheim's Adventures in Alchemy", it ended up being "Dante's and Hohenheim's Newlywed Show"
