"Singular" (Fullmetal Alchemist, Ling/Ed)

Title- Singular
Author- fireun
Rating- PG
Warnings- None
Prompt- Ling/Ed: a crush - It’s not appropriate

It first started expressing itself in the upward curve of Ling’s lips as he smirked, in the deceptively condescending tone with which he teased.  It was the reason he boasted and baited and did his best to get a rise out of his incomparable companion.

Ling wanted fury to light those gold eyes with a fire that was fantastically unique. He wanted to be the target of sublime ire, the center of attention. He wanted an excuse for touch, no matter how vicious, an explanation for play so very unconventional.

He had come into the story a few chapters too late to secure the place he desired, so Ling was forced to be creative. He twisted every quirk and hit every available button. It was an adventure in international relations; it made no sense to those watching from the audience. But to Ling it was a warmth in gut and groin, company and comfort and every desirable interaction in between.

The rest of the world had already laid claim to Edward Elric, but this alone was his.

That was so Ling. He's exactly the type of person who just can't resist playing with fire.

Thank you! ♥
