Written for Nozominoda in my request a drabble post.
I'm sorry about the poor, poor quality of this fic. Not that good, if I do say so myself.
I don't own Fullmetal Alchemist. Look at the crap you'd have to put up with if I did.
The day Ed found out that Fuery was taller than him was a day that Fuery will never forget.
While the two of them were waiting for Roy to wake up, Ed was struck with a brilliant idea. In order to prove that he was, indeed, not incredibly short, he figured he'd test his worth by measuring up to the shortest man in the military, Cain Fuery.
When he discovered that he was an inch shorter than Fuery, he flew off the handle, and Fuery was regretting not bending his knees, if even only a little.
Fuery made the fatal mistake of telling Ed that he could do other things, and he didn't need to be extremely tall to do them.
He knew he made a mistake when Ed turned to him, grinning insanely.
Fuery expressed his undying gratitude to Roy Mustang, who happened to wake up just when Ed had thrown Fuery onto the couch and was trying to undo his "stupid bloody military jacket", as he so affectionately called it in the only way he knew how; he clinged onto the Colonel's leg and refused to let go until Ed had left.
Con Crit more than welcome. Flames will be mocked.
