[fic] FMA: For Medicinal Purposes [Hawkeye]

I probably need to change that title. For two days now, I've been intending to write a Havoc fic relating to Hawkeye. This wasn't the idea--I want to do something from Havoc's POV and maybe *gasp* lighthearted--but something along the lines of the opening line has been stuck in my head all day, so this came out instead.

I think I've met my ficcing quota for like the year.

You're kicking my ass right now. XD I think this is my favorite of the recent ones, though - what can I say? I like your Hawkeye, and I like her defined by herself.

I probably jinxed myself and will not write again for half a year or something. Well, I do have to write at least that one last thing... How long is your piece turning out to be? The strange thing is though, maybe with the exception of one piece, this run of fic has rather dark overtones. I wonder what's going on in my brain. (It could be because I'm playing not-so-happy Tori Amos in the BG.)

That's 'cause you're weird. You tend to like my works that I don't expect to like. =D

I'm at just over 1,100 words but...I'm not sure how to end it. :-\ I'll try and get online tonight and we can discuss.

None of my tastes ever make sense to anyone else. XD I like the weirdest assortment of stuff.

Hush you, I just talked to you not even a couple days ago. ;)

But do the hearts...and every other card symbol, just type this: "&" + "hearts/clubs/spades/diamonds"+ ";" and you get these: ♥, ♣, ♠, &diamonds;

... this is awesome in its reality on so many levels.

First, a line that left me almost breathless because I've never seen this come up in any fandom's 'fic before:
just like how she hated the war but could fall in love with the desert, so vast and untouched and ambivalent.

As a daughter of a vet, I'm a Vietnam War buff. I read accounts, stories, information, whatever I can get my hands on. One thing that many various vets have recalled is the beauty of the land and culture, such a harsh contrast to the blood and death in their daily lives. That line had such an intense ring of reality to it, for me, because I've read and heard so many combat soldiers saying the same thing.

I've never thought of Riza smoking before, and I'm not sure why I haven't. I'm a smoker - I loathed (and still loathe) cigarettes for years, but I started up because I knew the information about them having rallied against them for so long, and no doctor at the time believed me when I tried to convey that something was wrong, the level of intense, prolonged ( ... )
