The Stone has many names and many forms, and they seek it in many ways....

The morning after. Al gets answers, Ed gets suspicious, and Roy gets busy.

They say the third time's the charm...

On some level, Roy knew that marriage would be a good career move.

"You can't do that! This is a shounen series!" he hissed.

Fixing Al.

Roy looked down at his coffee, but he'd stopped letting Hawkeye make it, so he couldn't blame it on that.

You got respect when you were the Flame Alchemist, but it was nothing compared to a man with claws and the will to use them.

Slinking closer, Roy took a deep breath and then another.

As far as Edward was concerned it could just take for-damn-ever if it wanted because that’s how long he could go without taking to the Bastard.

Fullmetal was starting to turn slightly purple, now, which definitely clashed with his coloring...

Everyone's born with their soulmate's first words to them written on their skin, and that should make things easy, but it really doesn't. "Roy has alternatively despised his mark and clung to it like a lifeline. Colonel. Just one word, right at the back of his foot. His literal Achilles’ heel."

It's like this. I was warning folks that I hadn't yet watched the last handful of eppies for FMA, and that if anyone spoiled me, they'd have to die loud and painful. So of course people decided to "spoil" me. Like how, in ep 51, Roy gets his WINGS and Ed is stabbed with SCARY GREEN ICE STUFF, and Seifer CRIES. Yes. Yes, it's FF8. DIE, PEOPLE. *hearts*

“You’ve heard the rumors,” Mustang says, looking at Ed over the top of his latest report, “about the angels.” Ed scoffs and rolls his eyes, “Angels don’t exist, don’t be ridiculous.” “Of course, of course,” he murmurs, gaze sliding back down, “There have been multiple eye witness accounts, however.” Ed slouches into the chair and doesn’t bother to keep the contempt to from his voice when he says, “Don’t depend on anything with wings to save you. Things that were made to leave always end up doing so, in the end.” “Yes, well,” he says, “sometimes they come back.”

Riza takes such immense joy in ruining Roy's life that he can't even bring himself to begrudge her.

In a world where soulmates can feel the other's pain, being Edward Elric's comes with a whole host of problems.

I like to daydream about Mustang and Ed's stupid adventures in diplomacy after they've taken control of the country. Emphasis on stupid. Ed is trans because 1) because and 2) silentwalrus' headcanons have seeped into the groundwater at this point.
