And the second…
Simulacrum II
By Hales731
sim·u·la·crum
1. A slight, unreal, or superficial likeness or semblance.
2. An effigy, image, or representation.
Gasps and moans echo off the tiles, and it’s almost as if there is more than one person. It never takes long for Al to come; a muffled cry escaping the lips that slipslide over the looking glass. He’ll stay there, pressed against the chilly, polished metal until his breathing returns. When he finally opens his eyes, the apparition before him—of golden eyes, flaxen hair, and gleaming automail—fades, along with the after effects of his orgasm.
Al doesn’t mind that the reflection becomes his own once more. Gone is the brother, gone is the lover, gone is the other, to where he cannot follow. All that remains is Alphonse, a mere reflection of Edward, and the reflection of Alphonse. Yet, the simulacrum only gives him more determination to seek the vision he truly wants to see.
