Welcome to the party! This is my collection of Fullmetal Alchemist oneshots and drabbles. Although some chapters will have nothing to do with other chapters, the whole thing is kinda loosely connected. Mostly this will be centered around Winry, Ed, and Al. But there will be some other people like Roy and Riza and Envy.
Oh yes, there will be Romance, attempted humor, angst, and friendship.
Okay so this first one kind of sets the stage for the others. Most of these will take place some time after the manga in my own little world. (EDIT: First five chapters were written before the last chapter of the manga was released. So consider them AU, Ed still can do alchemy and had himself fully restored) So yeah, enjoy and dont forget to review!
Winry lugged the box of raw materials up the hill overlooking her house. It was heavy but she was pushed forward by excitement. Ed had called, he and Al were coming home. She wanted to get working on a new Automail leg for Ed since the last time they met, he had already seemed taller. Also in the box was some polish and metal for Al as one arm was still thinner then the other and Winry was thinking Ed could finally make it even. She got to the top of the hill and looked down on her little house, the yellow paint looked bright on the slightly grey day. The walk down the hill was much easier then the one up it and soon enough Winry was pushing open her front door.
She glanced at the clock in the hallway. Ed and Al should be arriving in 2 hours or so. Winry dropped the box near the door and walked into the kitchen. And nearly screamed. A boy was standing near the stove, leaning over the apple pie she had baked for Edward, sticking a fork into it. "Hey!" The boy spun around, looking scared "What the hell do you think your doing!" Winry had whipped out her wrench and had it raised to throw at the strange boy. A grin spread across the boy's face and Winry let her beloved tool clatter to the ground without it having tasted blood. The smile was scary familiar as were the golden eyes.
"Oh Win, your back!" behind her the boy she waited for every day of her life was standing but she only had eyes for his little brother.
"Al?" He was horribly thin and much older from last she saw him but no doubt about it, it was Al, completely Al, no armor, and no missing limbs. Winry ran forward, barreling into the boy and holding him tight in a hug, tears rolling from her eyes. Al laughed and hugged her back. She detached herself from Al and looked over at Ed. "You two did it, you really did it!"
Winry wiped her tears and began scolding Al, insisting he should cut himself a piece instead of just sticking a fork into the pie while Ed chuckled and Al protested that he was hungry. Out in the hallway by the door the box of raw metal sat, forgotten and unneeded.
