A/N: Oh yeah, I forgot about this drabble. Totally messed-up "angst"-ish, depressing little drabble here. Okay, but here's my question: How did you interpret this drabble? I want to know. I have my own way of interpreting it, but that's not necessarily the right way. Um… enjoy…? Please review!

43. Two Sad Alchemists

Two sad alchemists. An office. Grey walls. Grey chair. A desk. Oak desk. Paperwork on top. Undone paperwork. I don't give a damn about paperwork anymore.

Two sad alchemists. One grey face. Two tired, sad eyes. Lips. Frown. Past never leaves.

Two sad alchemists. One metal face. No expression. No visible emotion. Emotion inside. Present never leaves.

Two sad alchemists. Alone. No one else in the world. No one ever in the world who could feel their pain. Not Hawkeye. Not Havoc. Not Winry. Not Ed. Not Black Hayate who's pissing on the wall. No one understands.

Two sad alchemists. Look at each other. Reaching out through their eyes. Blood drips from the wrist of the flesh. Metal sighing. No flesh wrists to slash on him.

Two sad alchemists. "Why?" asks one.

Two sad alchemists. Glare and shrug. I want to help…

"No one can help me."

Can I try?

No.

A flame. An ember.

One sad alchemist.

MetalWing Alchemist: My first type of fanfiction was Invader Zim fanfics… And yes, I believe I read one Spongebob fic where Squidward fell in love with a Mary-Sue. I read mostly FMA fics now. n.n Hell yes, I know lots of fanfic sites! (fear the advertisement) Animespiral(dot)com! It's… kinda bad… but it used to be good, I swear! It's mostly just a forum nowadays… but… :sigh: Oh well. I have an account there, same pen name. Then there's mediaminer(dot)org, and E-fiction, but I don't remember the address for that one. Oh, and there's this really good chick who writes awesome (and disturbing) FMA fics (among others). This is the addy. I hate FFN and their… not addy-liking-ness… grr… subsititute all the parantheses for the symbols: http(colon)(backslash backslash)harukami(dot)hanashika(dot)com. Then there's a link to "Fanfics" and you can go from there. DO NOT READ THE ARMSTRONG X PINAKO ONES! THEY WILL SCAR YOU! Anyway… fear not, for there is another series of drabbles in the making. n.n YAY for Roy x Ross as a couple and as single people. ;) Favorite male and female characters. Thanks for the review!

Wing Omega: Well, it's kinda fair I got kicked off. Speaking from hindsight, it's a good thing FFN has a few rules (although most of 'em are dumb… grr…). My other site, AnimeSpiral, has no rules, and now it's gone to the dogs. But sure thing, I'll add Ed x Scieszka and Roy x Scieszka to my to-do list! Thanks for the review!

Sika Kuriyama: Lmao, yes Ed and Havoc… the sexie anime blondes… YUMMY! XD Thanks for the review! n.n

writerauthorguy: Aw, you stay up late reading this? How sweet! The cheesy music just makes this all the more flattering… XP But don't worry, there's another set of drabbles in the making, so the drabble-ness shall not end! Thanks for the review!
