Fanfic: Fullmetal Haiku (Fullmetal Alchemist)

[nebroadwe]

Title: Fullmetal Haiku
Fandom: FMA
Character(s): Various.
Rating: PG (for one "damn" and a set of suggestive italics)
Warnings: None.
A/N: The other day I was introduced by canarynoir to this little widget, which grabs random slices of verbiage from your LiveJournal or other 'blog and treats them as haiku. For some reason (probably having everything to do with the fact that I just survived a dreadful oral examination), I became fascinated with the thing, prodding it repeatedly until (with a little editorial help) it and I produced the following series of FMA haiku. Now crossposted for no good reason from nebroadwe to fm_alchemist and fullservicefma.

Ed Visits the Barber

"Ensure that his blond
sidelocks hide his face." "Yeah,
yeah, whatever, you -- "

Winry Takes Charge

"Welcome! Take your chance
With everybody else now,
Al." "Thank you, Winry."

"Clear the table, Ed!"
she caroled then. (Ed made a
brave show far braver.)

Silence between them.
"You two want to help with the
lights, too?" she asked, quick.

The Colonel Explains Romance Writing to His Subordinate

Morning fanfiction:
"The red silk generates its
own heat, Fullmetal."

Someone Twigs At Last

First aha moment:
In that case wouldn't Ed be
Manic, not grumpy?

The Brotherhood

Together in what
Winry had drawn the line at:
Keeping secrets, but ...

The Inside of His Head

Easier it is not
To give a damn what people
Think of anything:

A correlative
For Ed's temptation to
Isolate himself.

Author's Note: The fanfic to which the Colonel refers is my drabble "The Red Rose Is a Falcon," in case anyone's interested. "Winry Takes Charge" built itself out of Light the Traveler Home. This has been a fully-sponsored paid commercial author's note.

I'd love to see what your 'blog produces ... [grins, raises one eyebrow hopefully]

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

Hmmmmm.....

[inane-nana.livejournal.com]

fsdgdfg. I WANTS THIS ICON. *MOLESTS*

[evil-little-dog.livejournal.com]

It's shareable. *grins* just give credit where credit's due (merrychildicons).

[inane-nana.livejournal.com]

That was very amusing XD

[nebroadwe.livejournal.com]

Thanks. I certainly need a little laughter in my life right now, but I'm also happy to share the wealth with others.

Those are delightful!

***hugs*** I'd tickle you to give you some laughter, but I get the feeling you'd kick. :þ

How about I just leave you with an image:

Mustang orders Hawkeye to get the Learjet ready (Yes, this is a snippet of an upcoming scene... so sue me).

"Who will be piloting, sir?"

"Havoc. I need you here with me."

"Yes, sir. I'll make sure that extra air sickness bags are stocked as well."


*I always imagined Havoc would be a fly-boy if they had planes in Amestris. And a bit of a crazy one, at that.*


*RUNS before the whip cracks*

Those are delightful!

Thanks much! It's the widget, mostly, not me.

***hugs*** I'd tickle you to give you some laughter, but I get the feeling you'd kick. :þ

How perceptive of you. :-)

How about I just leave you with an image:

Mustang orders Hawkeye to get the Learjet ready ...

[grins] I can't wait. I still owe you some comment on the most recent chapter of Sit Vis Tecum, which does several clever things and finally woke me up to some story possibilities that stand my hair on end (in a good way). As soon as I clear all this [deleted] paperwork off my desk ...

[c-b-syndrome.livejournal.com]

Oooh! If I made your hair stand on end, then I know I'm doing it right!

Buahahahahahahaha!

[lyricnonsense.livejournal.com]

*giggles* That was fun. Thanks!

You're welcome! It may be a little like cheating, but I enjoy picking up found poetry. One man's random blog entry is another man's art. :-)
