Summary
"I will always protect you, even if it costs me my life!”
Guilt and happiness warred within Sakura. It struck her now, like a deep, resonating note; the beautiful and painful truth that she was nothing compared to him. Rock Lee, with his unwavering courage and endless compassion, was too pure for their harsh ninja world. And Sakura needed him to realise it.
She knew she could still never truly deserve Lee. His inherent optimism and selflessness was unmatched. She would die before the day ever came.“Lee, you are kind and loyal and strong. You have a noble ninja way, which you have already accomplished. I’m sorry for judging you unfairly at first, but now I can see I was completely wrong. I need you to know you’re a better person and a shinobi than I will ever be; and even though I know you will never need protecting…” The bittersweet scent of cherries filled her as she inhaled, mustering the bravery to continue. To swallow her pride, to follow her heart, to overcome her love for Sasuke which still speared through her insides like a senbon. There was no turning back now.
“...I would be the one to give my life for you,”

Summary
They say that man is made of seven deadly sins; Pride, Greed, Sloth, Lust, Wrath, Envy, and Gluttony.
Legend also has it that each of the seven provinces of Amestris is the embodiment of one of those sins.
However Jean Havoc, Scribe and Secretary to Prince Roy, was personally convinced that the royal court of the south-eastern province was full enough of these sins to cater for the whole of the rest of the country, no sweat. -

If It Hit You in the Face by Zestyzigzagoon

Summary
“May, I don’t think you’d know flirting if it hit you in the face,” Drew stated simply, amusement shining in his eyes.
“What? Yes, I would!”
He smirked and raised an eyebrow. “Are you absolutely sure about that?”
“I am absolutely sure,” she mimicked, “That I’d know flirting if it hit me in the face, yes. Though, you’re the one who knows all about getting hit in the face, huh?”
He laughed, a bright sound that broke through the morning silence; but it was shortly followed with a sharp wince of pain. Drew looked back up reassuringly after a moment, meeting May’s concerned eyes. A small smile lingered on his lips. “Yeah, well. Whose fault is that, hm?”
Or, a stray snowball. A bloody nose. Idiot teenagers. An underpaid Nurse Joy. A soft conversation. Ensuing shenanigans.Bookmarked by ziggerastica

OML PERFECTION. Drew felt kiiiiiiinda ooc, but maybe that's bc I've been watching more of the sub lately. Drew is a hard balance to get right. And anyway, I could hear May's voice in my head clearly, so that made up for it x100. It was sososo stupid /pos!! the two of them are just so silly. But at the same time humorous and poetic, and flowed SO well -- the thing about their under-the-surface language and how May loves paradoxical seasons things. I feel like I've been hit in the face too.

FMA + HP = midnight fic marathon!!
How do the fma characters integrate so perfectly???? Its so satsfying OML.
I love you Ling, you greedy idiot <333
ALL THE REFERENCES AAAHRest of the series:
Greed, Mother of Skrewts, Boss of the Devils Nest... this fic is HONESTLY unfiltered Greed propaganda, and from that battle in the Chamber onwards, I've been totally convinced. Keep scratching at those Bradley awards!!
Aside from him and Ling of course, Greed Fred and George is absolute GOLD. Oh the potential...
The whole get-that-rat Scabbers plot was SUCH a vibe, the Amestris gang is superior.
Harry and Ginny's relationship is also so precious here <33
Harry and Sirius is honestly the most comforting thing ever OML the poor boy is finally getting the love he needs. Sirius is such a vibe. Izumi, too - she is the queen ^^^
The Percy under Hughes subplot is also gorgeous.
The Golden Trio is also so dense despite all of the CLUES right in front of them... I adore them, keep working at that conspiracy board mls!! You'll get there... some day...
The Hawkeye and Mustang entrance literally had me screaming at my wall, no exagguration. THE QUEEN AND KING HAVE ENTEREEDEDEDED and Ed's nickname for Mustang still living on is killing me.
Ok but everything else aside, the SINGLE MOST important relationship in here is Ed and Hermione. I always admired Hermione smmmm, but canon just turned her passionateness into a joke. She did not deserve that. Ed is the GOAT for giving her the backing she needed, from Book 1 when Ron insulted her all the way to SPEW. I just LOVE their friendship inexplicably much asdfghjkl. Also I'm sure Ed looks SICK in those Hogwarts robes.The graveyard scene -- ULTIMATE TRAUMA DUMP, it was so cruel I loved it. GET OUT ENVYYY.

SO heartwarming. Team 7 platonic fluff!!! Chaotic and adorableeee. Sasuke ml gets all the love and hugs he deserves.
And Yamato's therapy sessions -- especially ITACHII and his wooden crow. I never knew I needed this in my life.
