Fic: see the bird with the leaf in her mouth (Ed/Roy, not worksafe)

Mar 28, 2008 03:17

This requires a little explaining.

See, I wasn't planning on writing this pairing. For one thing, it'd already been written in every possible permutation before I'd even heard of the fandom, and that makes me twitchy (which is why it took me forever to write Axel/Roxas, incidentally). And the pairing type isn't really my kind of pairing type ( Read more... )

length: fic, character: roy mustang, [fic], fandom: fullmetal alchemist, rating: not worksafe, genre: m/m, character: alphonse elric, pairing: edward elric/roy mustang, character: edward elric

This was just pure brilliance. You really had their characters down so well and... your style is beautiful, and writing style is very important to me.

I think you should be very proud of this work because, despite what you may think, it is original and unique and amazing ( a little like Ed, no?)

A very well done to you!

Thank you so much!

I'm really glad the writing style worked for you -- and delighted that this didn't just seem like a retread; I'm always afraid of that in popular fandoms. I'm delighted you liked it!

Wow, when you strive for hasn't-been-done-before you really achieve your goal, huh?

I believe this calls for a SUPER-HAPPY-LOVEDYOURFIC-BEAM!*pshhhhu* <33

:D

Thank you! I'm so glad to hear that.

I've been waiting and waiting and hoping that you'd write this pairing, mm. In the hands of capable writers, there can never be too much Roy/Ed. I love that you kept Al a real part of the story, and the slow awakening of both Roy and Edward, and ohmygoodnes book sex is always hot. I'm so glad you tackled this, eiee. Love! <3

Thank you!

It's so intimidating, writing popular pairings, the specter of 'it's all been done before'... but this was a surprising lot of fun to write. So. Perhaps there will be more!

This was awesome in so many ways. You made Ed and Roy work on so many levels it was breathtaking! Well Done! ^_^

Pitch perfect (no surprise there!) It flowed so well and the characterization was spot on. In your notes you mentioned that this may have been done before- but good writing is good writing and this was fanfuckingtastic.

Thank you! I'm really glad it worked for you, especially the characterization.
