I get the title, clever! That is one evil Emperor you got going on, but then again he's not all bad, right? I'm just saying he did bring Ling and Al together. This is truly a wonderful mix of sex, love, and plot. (There's almost a Romeo&Juliet component to it) Now for the tricky part, more please! In the mean time you've inspired me, I really want to read more Ling/Al, but considering the lack of writers in this shipping field it would be a joy for many if you would consider continuing your writing.
Oh Velvet Mace how are you so awesome? And did I mention you are made of awesome?
I want to do more on this now (and you can blame youkofujima for this, her and her rabid au bunnies). Yeah, there are very very few people who write Ling/Al. I wish more people would, because I wanna read it, and not just write it. But speaking of writing, I do have more idea for this plot, I just need to push past my writers block and get it out.
It keeps eating my comments. I LOVE THIS FIC THOUGH, LJ PLEASE LET ME SAY AT LEAST THAT MUCH. >:E. What I like is that Ling is less of a bastard, and in some ways just as trapped.
This is captivating. I like how Al is determined to cope with whatever he has to, so that he doesn't lose sight of his goal of rescuing his men. He doesn't waste his energy fulminating over his awful predicament (unlike another Elric I might mention). Ling is very conscious both of his status as a prince, and of the limits that position places on his ability to protect Al. They each have a sense of duty, and you have set them up in contrast to one another in a very interesting way.
I'm glad you enjoy the way they cope with the situation.
I'm a big lover of people trying to reconsile their morals and ideals with difficult pragmatic situations. Ling is not a bad guy (though he is a bit sexist and entitled), and Al is far from being a weak helpless victim, and yet both are coersed by the situation to have sex with each other by forces outside of their control. Is it rape? Is it justified? Is it forgivable? It's a very muddled situation.

I caught a few things ...
-
"And why we are using Amstrians to test it rather than people."
*Amastrians

The breasts were rather impressively large, and Ling felt a slight twinge of lust mix with his increasing discomfort.
"Where is she now?" Al asked.
I'm pretty sure you meant 'Ling asked.'

"No, I wish to see her immediately," said Ling. The sooner I verify her condition, the sooner I can get out of his horrible place.

"Do prefer me in chains," said Alphonse, ignoring his questions. "Or would you mind if I took them off?"
"Do you prefer me in chains,"
