I can’t believe this is happening. Of all the stupid things to happen, this happens.

As I rush to the hospital after getting the call from Maes I still can’t believe it. They’ve been eating at Lydia’s for more than five years now and everyone there knows Roy can’t have tomatoes. The damn bus boys even take the ketchup off his table as if the condiment could leak through the bottle and get him.

When I get to his room he looks like shit but he’s breathing and that’s all I care about. He’s sleeping and with his limp hand in mine I ask Maes how in the hell this happened.

He’s shaking his head because he doesn’t know and he says no one at the restaurant knows either. They don’t have any new staff and the sandwich Roy ordered wouldn’t have come with tomato even if he hadn’t specified for it not to.

The hand in mine twitches and I look into tired eyes and smile. Roy tries to smile back but with his face swollen as it is he can’t manage it. I stay there at the hospital until they put me out. When I trudge through the door of the house Al is waiting for me just as I expected.

All of the emotions I’ve held in since Maes called me at the office to tell me Roy was in the hospital come tumbling out. I haven’t been that scared in years and I think I’d somehow forgotten what it was like to fear someone this close to me dying.

I tell Al that you don’t realize how much you love someone until you almost lose them. He just lets me ramble as he reminds me that no matter what, I will always have him.

And the darkness keeps coming. I can just hear Al thinking that it's all working out perfectly.

Still loving this <333

You are beginning to read creepy!Al's mind rather well my dear rather well...

[identity profile] evilchuckles.livejournal.com 2011-05-03 11:25 am (UTC)(link)
Ooooooo....this just gets creepier and creepier! In a marvellous shivery way.

I want to warn Ed!

[identity profile] lynx212.livejournal.com 2011-05-07 01:21 am (UTC)(link)
Thank you chic a dee... he is losing his tenuous grip on what little sanity he has and poor Ed has no idea

[identity profile] evilchuckles.livejournal.com 2011-05-07 06:07 am (UTC)(link)
I never would have thought it possible that I would so enjoy and be so gripped by a series where Al is going mad!

I still feel sorry for Al though and I can't help hoping that Ed can work it out and help him somehow. *is soppy*

[identity profile] lynx212.livejournal.com 2011-05-07 01:11 pm (UTC)(link)
It is odd to see Al in any light that isn't a sweet one and it messes with my head too but I'm enjoying it!

As for the other...only time will tell...

[identity profile] evilchuckles.livejournal.com 2011-05-07 01:35 pm (UTC)(link)
It's true that in canon Al is a truly decent man but this AU idea of him makes sense. It wouldn't be so strange if years and years in armour with no emotions, always at a remove from real life, and with Ed the only thing to hold onto could have sent him mad. I think that's why this series is having such impact!

[identity profile] lynx212.livejournal.com 2011-05-18 02:15 am (UTC)(link)
*blushes* Thanks for the praise my dear.I've always wondered what ill effects being a disembodied soul for years would have on a person's mind...

This is my answer to that question...

[identity profile] kyofujimiya.livejournal.com 2011-05-03 04:31 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh Ed...he doesn't even see it coming. And Al is so creepy, because I can see that sweet, enigmatic smile given over Ed's head or shoulder, where he can't see it. You are awesome.

[identity profile] lynx212.livejournal.com 2011-05-07 01:23 am (UTC)(link)
I am glad you are still following this my dear, Al's mind is a dark and dank place...the ideals there are not pretty

[identity profile] kyofujimiya.livejournal.com 2011-05-07 01:28 am (UTC)(link)
But of course I'm still following this! I like dark Al! *grins*

[identity profile] lynx212.livejournal.com 2011-05-07 01:11 pm (UTC)(link)
I have grown to love dark Al too...writing him sweetly will be a challenge after this LOL

[identity profile] ca11iope.livejournal.com 2011-05-03 08:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Uh oh. Ed confessing his love for Roy is exactly what Al DOESN'T want to hear. This is bad. Very bad.

Can't wait for the next. :)

[identity profile] lynx212.livejournal.com 2011-05-07 01:25 am (UTC)(link)
You are so very right little lady... Al has zero interest in hearing this and Ed is just making things worse...

[identity profile] sonjajade.livejournal.com 2011-05-04 12:02 am (UTC)(link)
oh god Al you evil bastard!! I love this fic. So dark!!

[identity profile] lynx212.livejournal.com 2011-05-07 01:43 am (UTC)(link)
*hugs on you* Al is indeed a nasty one and the show has just begun...

[identity profile] kattrip033.livejournal.com 2011-05-04 12:27 am (UTC)(link)
*squees* It's just so perfectly creepy.

Another great quote, by the way.

[identity profile] lynx212.livejournal.com 2011-05-07 01:44 am (UTC)(link)
*kisses hand* thanks for the praise my dear...Al is just getting warmed up

You're welcome!

...he reminds me that no matter what, I will always have him.

that bastard! Trying to slither his way in like this! GAH, I just wanna kill him! >.< Maes has to know this was an obvious attempt on Roy's life, no matter how minor it may seem. You can die from anaphylactic shock you know. Maes is no idiot. I know he knows that only someone who knew Roy well, personally even, coulda done this but he just can't bring himself to admit the terrible truth. *glares at Al* Can't wait to read more!

[identity profile] lynx212.livejournal.com 2011-05-07 01:51 am (UTC)(link)
Yes Al is getting further away from the norm with each passing thought he has... he no longer cares about right and wrong his desire is all that matters...

And Maes as no proof no inkling or idea to go on with this one...

OMG... I am loving this girl!!

Guess they wont be going away on any romantic getaways now will they?? Way to go Al!! :P

I love how Al is there to comfort his brother's pain(which he caused of course)

Remember Ed, if anything happens to Roy...(which I'm sure it will) you still have Al who loves you more than you know♥

[identity profile] lynx212.livejournal.com 2011-05-07 01:59 am (UTC)(link)
LOL you are a doll! You really want Al to come out on top in this don't you? *hugs* I love a villain lover!!

[identity profile] hpfangirl71.livejournal.com 2011-05-07 05:10 am (UTC)(link)
Well of course I do... doesn't everyone?? *smiles innocently*

[identity profile] lynx212.livejournal.com 2011-05-07 01:12 pm (UTC)(link)
*heh heh* someone has to root for the bad guy...so go team AL!! lol

[identity profile] natekeehl.livejournal.com 2011-05-04 05:55 pm (UTC)(link)
...After reading this chap, an image of Al hugging Ed and comforting him while having this creepy and pleasant smile... won't leave my mind~~

awesome :D

[identity profile] lynx212.livejournal.com 2011-05-07 02:00 am (UTC)(link)
I like the way your mind operates babe thats kinda the image I had in mind writing this...Kudos!

[identity profile] kettle-cat.livejournal.com 2011-05-08 11:50 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, I'm still in love with this series <3

And I still hope for happy ending, eh ^^;;;

[identity profile] lynx212.livejournal.com 2011-05-15 11:28 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank you my dear I am so sorry I am late replying to this...RL has me running in circles.

[identity profile] kettle-cat.livejournal.com 2011-05-18 09:30 pm (UTC)(link)
No problem, I'm always behind with replying and my life is pretty boring ^^;;;

[identity profile] straightcogar.livejournal.com 2011-05-10 01:41 am (UTC)(link)
Scary Al is Scary!!!!!! Not sure I can handle this!!!! *sitting on the edge of my seat*

[identity profile] lynx212.livejournal.com 2011-05-15 11:40 pm (UTC)(link)
Al is scary in this and he's only going to get worse...

[identity profile] withsweet-words.livejournal.com 2011-05-14 08:45 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, he'll always have Al, but he wont always want him.

Wow, I thought Al had slipped arsenic in his sandwich! An allergy of tomatoes isnt that bad I suppose, since he lived through it.

Ergh, I'm at the point in the story where I'm starting to wonder what the ending will be like...I'm envisioning a dead Roy...not the best of possibly endings for my poor mind, but I just dont see Roy making it through alive or at least healthily in tact. I keep thinking someone isnt going to make it out of this alive....it'd be interesting if it was Ed...

I just want you to know, I'm giving you horrible HORRIBLE ideas. :P

[identity profile] lynx212.livejournal.com 2011-05-15 11:42 pm (UTC)(link)
I love your ideas and I like the way you think.

There is no real chance of a happy ending with this, Al is too far gone in the head for that now and its hard to tell what he will end up doing...
