FrieAme AU where Friede's a paediatrician and Amethio's a terminally ill inpatient. Friede's in charge of Amethio's care and keeps telling himself not to get attached but oops Friede gets attached. So does Amethio.

Contains main character death, obviously!

Thanks to my good friend for always contributing great ideas! <3

Haha what if Spi's bullying and bodyshaming has managed to convince Ame he's fat (somehow) and early on Frie tries to persuade Ame to let him do a basic physical exam (height, weight, etc) so that they have a baseline for the future
"[Me] And Ame refuses and is all ""You can already tell that I'm short and fat and ugly, surely that's everything you need to know""

And Frie just stares at Ame super confused because what the fuck, how does this kid think he's overweight? If anything, he looks too skinny to Frie..."
"[Me] Frie: What makes you... say that about yourself?
Ame: I'm just stating facts.
Frie: Nope. From my point of view, you're not overweight at all
Ame: You're lying. You're saying that to get me to cooperate.
Frie: ...
Ame: Why should I believe you anyway?
Frie: Beeeecause I'm a doctor and I know a thing or two about weight"
"[Me] Ame: So you're saying I should blindly believe all doctors and that doctors can't make any mistakes?
Frie: This is gonna take a while huh
Ame: Anyway, I'm not doing a pointless examination. I've already been examined enough.
Frie: [Sigh]"
[Redacted] Ame thinking he is not pleasant to look at when he is one of the most gorgeous person Frie has ever met
[Me] Yes! Ame hates his body and thinks he's ugly and unattractive etc and Frie's over here like "Wow he's beautiful" from the moment they first met dhsgjklg
[Me] Ame wishing he had a body like Frie's: tall and broad and sturdy...
[Redacted] It's okay Ame, you're the most beautiful boy in the world
[Me] Frie makes Ame gain some self-confidence in his looks by the end...
[Me] But Ame's body deteriorating doesn't exactly help : (
[Redacted] At least he gains some confidence
[Me] Spi would be horrified if Frie ever mentioned it to him... Maybe Ame does tell Frie eventually that Spi was the one who made him hate his body...
[Redacted] It's Spi's own fault though <3
[Me] Absolutely!
[Me] Spi would apologise over and over and tell Ame that he never truly meant it, that he was projecting his own body image issues, and in actuality he wished he looked like Ame because Ame looks like Mother...
"[Me] Spi: I've always thought you were pretty... Just like Mother...
Ame: Well, it doesn't really matter now, I suppose. Now that I'm like this...

Ame's thin and weak and has lost a lot of his hair. He doesn't look that much like he used to."
"[Me] Spi: ...I was just... really jealous of you...
Ame: ...
Spi: I wanted to look like you... I wanted my body to be small and delicate like yours... I never wanted to be tall... Or have this annoying voice...
Spi: I'm sorry..."
"[Me] Ame: It's a bit late...
Spi: I know. I'm aware.
Ame: But if you mean it... that you do think I'm... that I'm pretty, then...
Spi: ?
Ame: Maybe Friede... wasn't lying to me...
Spi: Oh? Has he tried to convince you you're beautiful?
Ame: ...He's been very annoying about it"
[Me] Spi: I see he's a man of excellent tastes : )
[Me] Ame's decided to believe Frie for a while now, but if Spi's telling the truth, and he isn't actually ugly, then he really has no reason to think that Frie was lying all the times he praised Ame's looks...
"[Me] Frie always tried to tell Ame that he was beautiful. Stunning. Super pretty. That Ame should have more confidence in his face and his body.

Ame wanted to believe Frie, and he tried his best to, but he could never fully get rid of his self-hatred towards the way he looked..."
"[Me] But if it was all a lie in the first place, then...

Maybe..."
