FMA: Standalone: Detour

Fic post from my archive.

Detour

Roy and Gracia discuss some difficult plans. Angst with Drama, I-4, spoilers ep 25.

Gracia Hughes had been blessed with an innocent face. It had served her well, as the wife of an investigator. She had also been blessed with a sharp mind, which had served her even better, as the wife of Maas Hughes, in particular.

*cheers* Excellently done, and totally believable and in character for those two (especially Roy, that big sneak :-).

I have now decided that this is the True Version of the story. Denial is good!

My denial of canon regarding Hughes has just latched itself onto this fic. Love you very much for writing this.

*pets* We need something to justify clinging to Hughes, right? ^__^

Ah, *stretches* it's good to be back.

Thank you!

Denial is definitely good. We never saw the body! *firm nod*

Glad to have been of assistance in denying canon. ^_^ Hughes lives!

Man, I'm as bad about this as I am about Trigun and Wolfwood...

Obviously, the series lied to us and this is the true story. I certainly think it makes more sense.

*grins* Obviously. After all, it makes no sense at all for him to die; that was just gratuitious cruelty to the fans. And Roy. My contribution to everyone's mental health.

OMG *wibble squee* You're back in FMA fandom!!! *squishes* ^__^

*beams* Thank you!

I finally dared to watch the second half, and it wasn't nearly as heart wrenching as I'd feared. This is good. And I was instantly pounced by plotbunnies, which is also good in its way. But, of course, first things first, I had to do something about the heart wrenching bits of the first half...

Denial is good, too. ^_^
