"You two are no longer my students."
"You idiots!" A wrench clanged into the heads of two young boys, who anyone reading this fanfiction should know the names of without saying.
"What did I do!" Ed demanded fiercely.
"My… my head… uuugghhh…"
Ed and Winry looked at Al to see that his head was literally spinning atop his armor, and by the looks of it, the vibrations were moving orderly throughout him, causing his entire body to shake violently. Ed laughed.
Winry smacked Ed with the wrench again. "It's not funny, Ed!"
"Noooot fuuuunnyyyy…" Al's speech sounded the way it does when you take your hand and move it quickly back and forth in front of your mouth. 90 of people who read this will try it.
"That poor woman! How could you?" Winry yelled at the two of them, after Al was done shaking and the fanfiction readers are done trying to distort their voices and continue reading.
"What poor woman? Who are you talking about Winry?" Ed hollered back in Winry's face.
"Didn't either of you realize? …Poor Miss Izumi."
"Huh?" Ed and Al were both confused.
"Don't you have any clue how you've hurt her?" Winry said teary-eyed.
Ed and Al were both confused.
"If she's over right now, why don't you talk to her!" Winry screeched. About 40 of readers are slow and will not realize that Izumi is over at Winry's house until they read this sentence. About 20 of them also wonder why Winry was "screeching".
"What is it?" Izumi said through the door.
"It's us, teacher."
"You're not my students anymore, remember?"
"We need to talk to you."
"…No."
"We have to talk to you!"
Izumi groaned and opened the door. Suddenly, two young boys, who anyone reading this fanfiction should know the names of without saying, thrust themselves into her arms and knocked her backwards.
"We love you, Teacher."
"Um, what?" Izumi was red but confused.
"We're sorry we did what we did. It was wrong."
"You know that now. It's alright."
"That's not what we mean, Teacher."
"…Eh?"
"We know it was stupid to try and bring our mom back, even though," tears fell down Izumi's face as she listened to those two young boys, "even though our mother was here with us the entire time."
The two young boys took their mother, threw her in the air and tackled her onto her bed.
"…You have learned well, my sons."

Disclaimer in profile, as always. What do you think of my drabbling? The title, by the way, is Latin, and means something to the effect of, "Love's mother is a mother's love. It is a force of strength." It's the best I can do being in just Latin 1 and struggling with those declensions. Anyway, I've always thought of Ed and Al replacing Wrath as Izumi's child… and Ed and Al replacing envy as Hohenheim's… and how poor darling Wrath and Envy must feel about all of this rejection… oh, those poor, sweet dears… Reviews much loved almost as much as cute little Wrathy-kun!
