Character development is key. Roy Mustang has a distinct personality in the original series, and the fanfiction should stay true to that while also showing how he changes or is affected by the relationship with the reader. Also, the reader - insert character should have their own personality traits and not just be a blank slate.
One great 'Roy Mustang x Reader Fanfiction' is 'Flames of Attraction'. It has a really engaging plot where the reader character gets involved in Roy's military operations in a very natural way. The chemistry between them is well - written.
Female Roy Mustang fanfiction is unique because it can offer a fresh take on his character. For instance, it could explore his vulnerability from a female perspective, which might not be as prominent in the main story. It can also create unique relationships between him and female characters, whether it's a friendship, a mentorship, or a romantic relationship. These fanfictions can also delve into how his actions and decisions impact female characters in ways that add depth to the overall story.
The plot should be well - thought - out. For example, if it's set in the Fullmetal Alchemist universe, it should incorporate elements of that world like alchemy, military politics, etc. in a way that makes sense and adds to the story. And of course, the writing style. A smooth and engaging writing style can make a Roy Mustang reader fanfiction really stand out.
One great Roy Mustang reader fanfiction is 'Flames of Affection'. It beautifully captures the relationship between the reader and Roy Mustang, with a well - written plot that involves the reader getting involved in Mustang's military operations in a very believable way.
The setting of their world also plays a huge part. The world of alchemy and the military backdrop add depth to their relationship. There are so many elements like power struggles, moral dilemmas that can be explored in the context of their relationship in fanfiction. It's not just about the romance but also about how they navigate their world together. For example, in some fanfictions, they have to work together to solve a mystery related to alchemy while also dealing with their growing feelings for each other. This combination of different aspects makes it really interesting.
The contrast between their personalities. Edward is usually headstrong and impulsive, while Roy is more calculating and strategic. In a fem version of Edward, there are new dynamics added. Their relationship can be explored in different ways, like a power struggle or a more romantic, unexpected pairing that challenges the norms of the original series.
A great fanfic in this pairing often has well - developed characters. It should stay true to the personalities of Riza and Roy as seen in the original series. For example, Riza's loyalty and Roy's ambition. The chemistry between them should be palpable, whether it's a slow - burn romance or an already established relationship. Good dialogue is also key, as it helps to bring out their unique relationship dynamics.
The plot is crucial. It could be a story that fills in the gaps in the original series, like their time before they became so well - known in the story. Or it could be an alternate universe where their relationship develops in a different way, but still in a way that feels believable and engaging.
One good story could be 'The Unspoken Bond'. It delves deep into the unspoken understanding between Roy and Riza. It shows their relationship evolving from just comrades to something more profound, with beautiful descriptions of their shared glances and unsaid emotions.
I also like 'Flames of Friendship'. In this one, it starts with a simple encounter between them that gradually blossoms into a strong friendship. The author does a great job of showing how their mutual respect grows over time. They face various challenges together, from dealing with other alchemists to handling the politics within the military, all while their bond becomes more and more unbreakable.
