A/N: Bwa-ha-ha! RoyEd is love. 3 This is my first FMA fanfic, and though it isn't as good a 50 Sentences as Cerulean Ink, I still rather like it. The sentences are all along the same timeline, manga or anime. A few make references to the anime, though… I'm inconsistent with my 50 sentences xD. Again with the strong images, the emotional baggage of the past. I always thought Roy was haunted by Ishbal more than he let on… He's only 29! On another note entirely… there are five fanfics for Fuery on FFN! FIVE! And four of them are by the same person! D: We all love Fuery, right? xD About #29, 'Melody'… Vic Mignogna (sp?) has the most amazing voice… I think he may actually have an album out… Mbeh, that's where singing Edward came from. Haven't abandoned MATSURI, but I may start an FMA chapterfic (I have several ideas…) and some character studies. Rose and Gluttony are in the works, and I'm sure more will follow. Au revoir, and revieeeeew! (xD)

Sunsets on Fire- RoyxEdward 50 Sentences

03. Soft
It amazed him that Edward's skin could be so soft, compared to the cool intricacy of his automail limbs.

04. Pain
He could almost feel the small boy's pain just by looking at the blood-gushing stumps that had once been limbs.

Edward cocked an eyebrow skeptically; he was pretty sure Roy had been teasing when he'd said potatoes would make him taller.

06. Rain
Much to Ed's dismay and Roy's amusement, not even a healthy round of kissing in the rain could flatten that #! cowlick.

That damn cologne sure as hell did NOT turn him into chocolate or anything, Ed had just (rather bluntly) told him to go wash it off, it was really gross.

The 'fake girlfriend' gag had been played on the telephone of Col. Roy Mustang many times, but never did he think he'd find himself actually sweet-talking Edward from a military line.

The jealousy Roy felt seeing the blonde girl's arms wrapped around his little alchemist was something he didn't even bother to write off, he just wanted to get his mitts on Edward Elric.

A system of semi-forced milk consumption was ensued, but Edward only put up with it because the taste of the stuff was always followed by the taste of a certain Col. Mustang.

30. Star
Roy was only mildly surprised to hear a broken-sounding Edward wishing on a star not for his own happiness, but for Al's.

Home wasn't that charred pile of wood, home was the modest two-story house that always smelled vaguely of sex and sorrow.

The market was always crowded and hectic, enough so that Roy's free hand could wander quite a bit on the much smaller alchemist's backside without anyone noticing.

The design of Edward's automail limbs interested him, but not enough to overcome the hatred he'd developed of the technology of picking bodies apart.
