Fullmetal Alchemist (Reverse'verse) - Get On It [EdRian]
Title: Get On It
Fandom: Fullmetal Alchemist
AU: Reverse'verse
Characters/Pairing: Ed/Rian, Russell, Havoc
Rating: T
Length: 335
Summary: Rian could hear the colonel from the hallway.
Rian could hear the colonel from the hallway, which meant that he had forgotten to close his office doorway again, or he was having a meeting with Lieutenant Tringham again. Smart money fell on the latter, and Rian didn’t have time to rustle up a wager before he got into the office proper.
Bailey and Cushler both were gathered around Lieutenant Havoc’s desk. They both looked up guiltily at his entrance, but Havoc merely raised his hand in acknowledgement. Captain Hawkeye did not look up from her paperwork. “Good afternoon, Rian."
"Ma'am,” Rian said, and looked to the closed door. He was surprised it wasn’t shaking in its frame. “Lieutenant Tringham again?"
"Every day this week so far,” Havoc said.
“Fantastic,” Rian said, tucking the folder under his arm and opening the door.
Colonel Elric was standing up behind his desk, both hands flat on its surface and his face a rather peculiar shade of red. Lieutenant Tringham was just opposite of him, arms crossed. He glanced to the door, the colonel kept his eyes on the enemy. “Now’s not the time, Rian."
Rian held up his folder. "Seventeen partially decomposed chimera, eleven killed,” he said. “Still haven’t found the fuckhead, but he couldn’t have gotten far. Figured I would stop in with an update, as you haven’t answered your phone all week."
The colonel finally glanced over at him, Rian’s words penetrating the haze of rage that he had cloaked himself in. "Only eleven?"
"Yeah, I was figuring more too,” Rian said. He held out the folder. “I need your signature on a few expense reports, then I have to haul out and catch the next train."
It was a brief flicker, the emotion that crossed the colonel’s face, but he recognized it well. "All right, give them here.”
