Plllleeeeaase tell more about single dad Roy/teacher Ed. I'm such a sucker for kidfic
hehehe omg me too!! tysm for asking about it! i just have some rough outline stuff for you, i hope that's okay!!
꒰ ask me about my wips ꒱
roy has a 6 year old from a previous relationship (the mother dipped out after 2 years idk the reason atm i'll come up with one lol) and he's been raising her alone ever since. hasn't dated anyone or even tried, he's just been focused on giving his daughter (idk her name yet) the best life he possibly can and devoting all of his time and energy to her. daughter just started first grade and when roy drops her off at her class for her first day he looks up to see the teacher standing against the open door, greeting the kids and their parents y'know. and roy is immediately speechless like this man is so beautiful he doesn't even know what to do with himself. by the time the family the teacher was talking to parts, his daughter leads him by the hand up to greet the teacher all excited and stuff because she loved kindergarten and can't wait to see what first grade is like and she's a very extroverted, friendly, bubbly little girl. so she makes their introductions and introduces herself first and then is like "this is my father, roy mustang. he works at/as a (idk what i want roy to be doing yet i'm still thinking) and we live together with our dog (idk dog name yet don't look at meeee). she's a golden retriever! i look forward to being in your class this year!" and the teacher is grinning so wide with bright happy eyes and roy's heart is doing flips and shit at the sight as he bends a bit to shake the daughter's name. "it's very nice to meet you, [name]! my name's edward elric, but you can just call me ed or mr. ed or mr. elric, whichever you're most comfortable with! i'm looking forward to having you in my class for the year." and the daughter shakes his hand very firmly, nodding all happy. and then ed stands back up straight, his grin tamed into more of a lopsided smile that's just as stunning on him and he offers his hand for roy to shake and roy kind of has to snap himself out of his speechless staring and they shake hands. and roy's all "thank you for taking care of my daughter, mr. elric." and ed's just smiling and nodding and "i'm delighted to have her! she's in good hands and this is a very safe environment, i promise. if you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to come talk to me at pickup anytime." and yeah. roy's smitten. and he doesn't know it but ed's smitten as well. and daughter catches on and makes it her mission to get her dad and her teacher together because she wants her father to be happy.
