    Summary

    Ling had traced the Vulpecula constellation with an elegant finger and told Ed he’d been born under the autumn constellation. That his mother said he was destined to grow up plagued by hardships and strife but would find fortune and love under the same stars.

     

    He said he was born in the year of the ‘little fox’, and Ed had laughed, told him it was fitting.

     

    Ling had taken Ed’s hand and together pointed towards the horizon, drawing an erratic path between stars that Ed hadn’t recognized. Told him he was born in the year of the dung beetle because he was a little shit. Emphasis on the ‘little’.

     

    “Wouldn’t we be the same animal?” Ed had asked. “We’re the same age.” And Ling smiled, the soft one that never failed to make Ed’s knees go weak, and admitted that technically Ed was older by a scant thirteen months, but it hadn’t been worth mentioning because Western ages are rather primitive and unimaginative and they lack soul and ingenuity and Ed had cut him off with a fistful of grass to the face, the night dissolving into the carefree laughter that Ed has only ever been able to attribute to Ling.

    Summary

    The most beautiful boy he had ever seen in his life was standing at a locker further down the hallway.

    “What are you doing?” He heard from beside him. He recognized the voice as Lanfan.

    “Staring at the sun.” He responded, not looking away from the golden boy.

    He saw in the corner of his eye as Lanfan turned in the direction that he was staring.

    “Oh! That’s just Ed.” She responded, nonchalantly.

    Summary

    They both grew quiet after this, the steady splash of fountain water trying to fill the gap in conversation. Far off they could hear the station tram zipping by, likely carrying the last of the late-night shifters and the Amestrian patrol back to their respective living quarters. Ling tried to focus, the room suddenly feeling far too big and far too empty. He slouched down the fountain’s rim a bit more, his head falling onto Ed’s flesh shoulder. He was closer now. If he could concentrate, he could hear the other’s heartbeat just that much easier. It was faster than usual and he was so tempted to reach his hand up over it. But then there was Ed beating him to the punch, fingers slotting in between his and squeezing. This was better. Ling let the moment pause for a few more beats before letting himself voice what had been bothering him ever since they’d finished with their plans.

    “You’re going to be gone for a long time, huh?” He started, “Six months?”

    “Probably a bit longer.” Ed replied.
