Written for the Drabble Prompts challenge held by the beautiful sleepy queens and using the prompt 'brother'.

I don't own Fullmetal Alchemist.


"Hey brother?"

"Yeah, Al?"

The two siblings were across from each other on a slowly moving train, watching the scenery of trees, farms, and plains rush past them in blurs of colour.

"Are you okay?"

Ed blinked, turning his golden eyes to look at the suit of armor. "Huh? Yeah, I'm fine."

"That's good." You could practically hear the smile in Al's voice as the suit shuffled in his seat.

"Al?"

"Yes?"

"You know you can trust me with anything, right?"

"Right!"

Ed gave his brother a small smile when the armor nodded, before turning his attention back to the landscape. They were quiet for the rest of the long train ride.
