Well, it made perfect sense to me when it first popped into my head.

A fic for Alphonse, trying to find his brother. Probably a drabble-length thing, because it's 145 words long.

Fullmetal Alchemist isn't mine, if it was, then Envy and Ed would be snarky brothers who actually got along and the only straight pairings would be RizaxHavoc and AlxWinry


I can see you Nii-San. You are just a little ways ahead.

But still, no matter how fast I run, you are always too far away.

Your long blond hair, your quirky grin that you only reveal to those you care about,

All taunt me when I try to catch you. Because you are always just barely out of reach.

Please wait for me, I want you back.

I'm forever chasing after you.

It's a never ending game of catching you.

Just when I think the game's won, you've snuck away, impossible to find again.

Come back please!

You are a taunting presence right before my eyes.

Right there and I can't see you.

No matter what I do, no matter what I try,

You are just never there Nii-San.

Is this a game of I catch you?

Or you eternally run away?
