Honeybear Headcanon/fic Idea, When Rhodes Left For His First Deployment, Tony Was Very Lonely And Missing

Honeybear headcanon/fic idea, when Rhodes left for his first deployment, Tony was very lonely and missing him and couldn't do anything cause don't ask don't tell (fucKING patriarchy), so in kinda stupid move Tony goes to get a tattoo in honor, and actually the artist adopts him cause he's so smol and nervous and genuine. Well when Rhodes discovers it, he's very honored and repays Tony ;) so it becomes a thing for Tony to get a tattoo on his thighs for each deployment

I changed some things a little bit, but I love this prompt. Tony+tattoos is my weakness.

(note: all those numbers are random lol)

***

When Rhodey graduated and was assigned to the Aviano air base in Italy, Tony was happy that at least Rhodey would be able to live abroad like how he always wanted. He was also glad that Rhodey would be in Italy, the best place in the world as far as Tony’s concerned, and a country where he knew the language, and Tony would be able to drag Rhodey to all his favorite places when he went to visit him.

After seeing Rhodey off at the airport, Tony went to the tattoo parlor two blocks away from his apartment that he always walked past on the way to school. He walked in and got a tattoo on his left thigh, right below his hipbone – 617, the number of the room Tony and Rhodey shared when they were freshmen.

(A year later, Tony went to visit Rhodey and they drove to the Carbonell family’s villa in Venice to celebrate Tony’s 18th birthday over an extended weekend. Rhodey saw the tattoo for the first time when they were lounging by the pool. Tony ended up getting the best present he could have ever asked for that year.)

After four years in Italy, after Tony took over the company and moved to California, Rhodey requested a location transfer and packed his bags for Los Angeles. Tony welcomed him home and showed off his new tattoo, inked right under the first one – 530, May 30th, the day Tony and Rhodey finally got together that summer in Venice.

The great thing about the Air Force was that they didn’t deploy their men too frequently, so Tony and Rhodey were always able to spend time together. But it was inevitable that Rhodey would eventually be assigned off-base for a few months for special duties, so when Rhodey was sent off for his first deployment since moving to LA, Tony went and got his third tattoo – 138, the last three digits of Rhodey’s serial number.

It became a tradition. Whenever he and Rhodey were apart for long stretches of time, Tony would go out and get another tattoo.

518, the day they flew back to Massachusetts to get married715, the flight Rhodey took from Venice to Boston to surprise Tony for Thanksgiving502, the day Tony escaped the Ten Rings and Rhodey found him in the desert101, the number of flowers in the bouquet Rhodey got Tony for their first wedding anniversary

The list goes on.

All the tattoos were numerical, each one a representation of a significant event in their relationship.

There was only one exception. A single J marked on Tony’s shoulder blade, complementing the T that Rhodey has inked on his.

Lazy Cat Isn’t Much Help In A Fight

You know what little moment I always liked? Roy mentally scrambling to find an explanation for Ed when Shou Tucker asked for Ed and Al’s secrets. I always thought it was a nice touch. After all if Roy was uncaring as pretended to be, he would have put Ed on the spot instead of trying to cover for him right?

I agree so much with this!!! And yes, I’ve always LOVED that scene too! Roy clearly makes an effort to cover up for Ed, and it’s not even this little, “well, Fullmetal?” Roy has to fight to find the words for it, and Ed is the one to hush him. And I imagine Roy felt a nice little twinge or pride when Ed went and told the truth. 

Thanks for sharing!

do you guys know of any parental fics that involve mustang/riza/team mustang saving ed and/or al from some kind of danger or bad situation? im craving some Angsty Shit 😤

Sure do!! Many of these may have torture mention, all will have warning! 

Buried–Al is dead. Suicide attempt.

Dollmaker–A serial killer from Roy’s past has one last surprise before he’s executed as a parting gift for the Colonel. Torture tw.

Fever–Edward is getting sick and goes on a mission he wasn’t assigned. Colonel Mustang is not happy when he finds out. Illness mention. 

Gold From Lead–There were whispers. There was absolutely no way to stop them. Ed would rip out his spleen if he knew what all those people were insinuating about the two of them.

Light At the End of the Tunnel–While in pursuit of a wanted criminal, Edward and Roy end up in the sewer system below Central. Things quickly take a turn for the worst.

Foul Depths–A killer is loose in Central and an already injured Edward is caught up in the whole mess… whether he likes it or not. Torture mention. Sequels include drug use.

Number Twenty Eight–As of today, Edward Elric had been missing for four months, two weeks, and five days. Torture mention. Chimerism. Sequel is Snow!

Stairway to Paradise–Post saving but very angsty!! Ed has been MIA for months, and when Roy finally finds him, he is blind and more than just physically injured. With the State honorably discharging him, and no father to speak of, Roy has no choice but to care for the boy and try to put the pieces back together. Torture mention.

The Tales and Tails of Elric–Edward went on a mission to investigate missing soldiers, little did he know, he was going to become the next target. Missing for six months, Roy finally finds him in his aunt’s bar of all places, but something is different. It is now up to them to get him back to normal and find out what happened to all those soldiers. Chimerism. Torture mention.

What He Feared the Most–Roy didn’t particularly see himself as a protective man, but when the Fuhrer takes his threats too far, Roy will find something within himself he never imagined was possible.

Whiteout–When the train to Central is delayed due to weather, Ed decides to walk the rest of the way. As the freezing weather blows in, Ed and Al are forced to face an unsettled issue of their past and Roy becomes an unsuspecting witness to a chink in Ed’s armor.

Without Flinching–Shortly after Edward gains his State Alchemist title, he’s already run into trouble. It’s not even been half of a year yet, and already, terror has arrived on Mustang’s desk, in the form of an old walkie-talkie, and a note, saying, “You have 24 hours.” There’s a new threat in the East, and apparently, he wants to play a game. With all of them.

Your Son–“I’m not your father. It’s not fair that you can affect me this much.” A military function becomes a nightmare when Ed accidentally takes a poisoned drink meant for Roy.

“Happy” reading!
