Summary: “Restored to his body, Al comes to the desert, looking for something he can’t quite name. Scar helps him find it.”
Comments: Huh. I honestly thought I’d already recced this fic. I searched through the FMA section, plus a few other in case I’d marked it into the wrong category, but. Apparently I didn’t. So. It’s the only well-written Scar/Al fic I’ve ever seen, and ever since I first watched episode…23? 24? 25?, I’ve thought that Scar/Al had the potential to be a very interesting pairing. But I’d probably rec this even if I didn’t have that background, just because the way they play off each other is just so beautiful. The way Scar’s trying to teach Al that not everything has to be equivalent exchange, the way Al’s still trying to adjust to being in a human body, just…everything.
One-shot, complete.
