Summary
After two years of night shifts, Caylee was finally starting to get used to watching her lockscreen clock flip from 2 to 3. Generally, that would have marked the end of a great night out. For Caylee, it just meant she was about halfway through her shift. She liked being a paramedic. Loved it, even, maybe.
But still, all the love in the world couldn’t make a 7-to-7 not torturous. The sleep deprivation, combined with the kinds of calls that always seemed to get sprung on you, just sapped the energy out of her body like a vacuum. She liked to think that was why she had no friends. She worked too much to be a good friend. It wasn’t true, but Caylee liked to think that anyway. It was easier than admitting that at the end of a long day she’d be scrolling on her phone in a dark room, watching her friends down shots and dance at overpriced concerts, somehow still being able to afford in-state tuition.

Summary
Whatever was going on, something was wrong. We were maybe only 13 but not completely stupid. The news had made our parents tense, there was a reason why Mr. Grace at first tried not explaining to us what was happening. Some weird theories and conspiracies ranging from relatively normal to absolutely insane started to spread among students after he had disappeared.
In hindsight 13 year old me could see what was coming, and she wasn't afraid to speak up about it. I sometimes wish I still had that much energy left right now as I was watching the news with bated breath. As that name that had been bothering me for decades in the back of my mind suddenly resurfaced. Heralded as a hero.
Or how Dr. Cara Nilsson, 59, scientist and old student of Mr. Grace, has seen the events across the years. How the world turned to madness, the slow leaking of information about what had happened, whistle-blowers, war, famine and then Eva Stratt getting out of prison. Only to finally learn what had happened to that teacher she had always looked up to.

Summary
‘‘I used to think Fullmetal was a crude nod at your prosthetics…’’
Roy Mustang’s words were laced with a thoughtful hum, and Edward tried not to feel hurt by the misassumption. Many heard his title and assumed it came down to his automail arm and leg. Ed had just hoped the Colonel – after everything – would’ve been different; that Mustang would’ve looked past Edward’s ill-fitting uniform and cripplingly-heavy automail and only see him as a person.
‘‘But,’’ Mustang continued, pensive, ‘‘I think they spelled your title wrong. You’re not Fullmetal, you should be Fullmettle. As in, you are full of mettle.’’
Edward blinked, utterly baffled.
‘‘Mettle, kid. M-E-T-T-L-E.’’
Mustang spelled it out for him. Literally. A genuine smile tugged at the Colonel’s lips as he rumbled out a fleeting chuckle, affectionately sweeping a hand over the top of Edward's golden crown. The boy's throat constricted as an annoying warm blur suddenly invaded his vision. He had experienced more kind words and actions under this man’s brief command than he had experienced in a long, long time.
It was just a shame that it was only a temporary arrangement.
