Selfish Favors [4/?]

I present to you a lovely series by missturdle. Selfish Favors [4/?] : Synopsis: Roy Mustang was fairly certain that First Lt. Riza Hawkeye had no intentions of retiring to get married and be a stay at home wife, and that was one of the many reasons why he was totally and irrevocably in love with her. [A series of Stand-Alone One Shots explaining how Roy & Riza might realistically get married.] Pt. 1 , Pt. 2 , Pt. 3 Rating: T Snippet: Back then their days were full of actual work, and his evenings were full of pretending to be a playboy, leaving the dead of night as the only time they had to plan a coup d’etat. When she realizes they are bringing back this tradition of sorts she gives him a knowing look. _______ He’s in so much shock that she has time to explain, fairly seriously, how she broke into his apartment. She knows where he keeps his spare key in his office desk, and she’d stayed late that evening at the office.

Hanging Out

Went out with my friend today. She wanted to do some shopping, and in the end, we did - window shopping. It's kinda funny because we're polar opposites when it comes to shopping. She goes for the wants, I go for the needs. But at least we can both agree on one thing - we're very picky. So much so that we can take a long time to select the right thing and we end up not buying anything, which is good for our pockets. I'll take that as good training for resisting temptation. These are the questions I ask myself when selecting the right product: Is this the item you need? If you went shopping for ________, then why are you looking at _ *insert unrelated good*_ ? Is it within your budget? (Sidenote: Personally, I find that carrying very little cash with you really helps to cut down on spending. Don't bring your credit cards either. You can't spend much if you don't have enough money with you. P.S. It's also a good trollin' excuse when so...

Happy Royai Day!

  Dear Royai shippers, Happy Royai Day! Let's celebrate all the Roy & Riza moments in the past, present and future! RoyAi Day 2011 by ~ lilianadc on deviant ART What is Royai? Royai is the love between two awesome Fullmetal Alchemist characters - Colonel Roy Mustang and First Lieutenant Riza Hawk eye . 'Ai' ( æ„›)  means love in Japanese. So Roy+Hawkeye+Ai = Royai. (Note the pun. Clever, eh?) Why is Royai Day on June 11? No one really knows why. It originated in Japan some years back, and forum discussions have led to several possible speculations: June 11 may have been the date a Fullmetal Alchemist chapter (which featured a significant Royai moment) was released. The numbers 611 could have held major significance to Mustang and Hawkeye's relationship in the story line (e.g. Ishbal war event dates, room numbers, etc.). Trivia Did you know that EdWin Day (503)  is on May 3? W...

Crazy - but freaking brilliant.

I just came across some awesome Royai fics and had to repost it. Fanfiction: Fullmetal Alchemist: The Road is Longer Still  by  jellyjay . Operation Break-Up  by jellyjay . “If every single stupid plan I’ve ever come up with to get them together has failed, then logically, a plan to break them up will also fail, effectively getting them together.” There was another pause. Then Breda laughed heartily and pushed back from his desk. “That – That’s so crazy it might actually work.” “Brilliant, isn’t it?” snorted Jean loftily. “Crazy – but freaking brilliant.” Jean Havoc, you're a genius. Reflect, Reverse  by porcelaindakota Even though Royai isn't officially canon, we all know that it has always been and will always be canon. After many years of shipping Royai, I cherish all the little moments that the Colonel & the Lieutenant have shared. Thus, I hope Royai shippers will find the following collections useful. But beware of spoilers. Roya...
