A/n: Well the reviews were positive so I've decided to continue. It seems some of you were confused by the first drabble, which makes sense, lol. I didn't like it because it didn't really have a point to it.

This reject was just too undescriptive and shallow so in the drabble I posted I took the original concept and made it a little deeper. :)


O human race born to fly upward, wherefore at a little wind dost thou fall.

Dante Alighieri

#21 Philosopher's Stone

Edward's search for the stone distanced him from the ones who loved him, sometimes at years at a time.

Riza couldn't even begin to imagine how Winry felt, to be separated from the one she loved, to not be by his side.

Roy had an obsession, just like Edward. But it did not take him away from her.

And for that she was grateful.
