Title: Drabble: First, Do No Harm
Fandom: FMA (anime or manga version)
Character(s): Winry, Ed
Pairing: None. Okay, it depends on how you look at it ...
Rating: PG
Word Count: 100
Warnings: None.
A/N: I'm up to my ears in on-the-job training in rare book cataloging, but even that can't prevent a drabble from emerging in a good cause. It was interesting, too, to find the point at which honor trumps friendship for Winry. Crossposted from [livejournal.com profile] nebroadwe to Höllenbeck (i.e. [livejournal.com profile] hagaren_manga, [livejournal.com profile] fm_alchemist, [livejournal.com profile] fullservicefma, [livejournal.com profile] fma_writers, [livejournal.com profile] fma_fiction, [livejournal.com profile] ed_winry and [livejournal.com profile] winrylovers).
Dedication: For [livejournal.com profile] evil_little_dog, as a pick-me-up.



      She never has to ask him to stop squirming. He lies still as a mannequin while she works, unless she induces a galvanic reaction. If only all her patients had such self-control, she muses as she tinkers with his shoulder. His constant complaints (about the exam table or an imaginary draft or her perfectly reasonable disquisition on proper self-maintenance) seem little enough to endure in exchange.

      Until he grumbles, "Are you done playing doctor yet?"

      Stung, she bends and whispers in his ear, "Oh, I haven't even started."

      And steps away, grinning, until that galvanic reaction runs its course.

When in doubt, wave your sword and yell -- that's my motto.

The only drawback is that it doesn't help you on the phone. Your interlocutor can hear the yelling, but it loses something without the accompanying visual.

Trust me, if I had a sword at work, Atty would make sure everyone knew about.
