Years after the events of Brotherhood, Edward and Roy have given into romance and are now living together. While trying to make the place a little tidier, Ed finds some letters from Roy to him that he's never seen before…and they remind him that he has some unsent letters of his own. Slow burn.

41. Chapter 41

Roy,

Everything is so fucked up. Kimblee is more or less running the show up here, now. He's a creepy guy, and he's admitted openly that he's in league with Father. I don't even think he cares what he gets out of the deal—he just likes killing.

They know me and Al can't do anything against him, and he's flaunting that in our face. He brought Winry up here just to show off his power. But more than that, he wants me to do his dirty work for him.

Kimblee offered me a Philosopher's Stone. And all I had to do to earn it was start a massacre here at Briggs. He's trying to help Father with the last point on his nationwide transmutation circle, and he wants me to sacrifice people so that I can use the Stone to bring me and Al's bodies back.

I agreed.

Before you freak out, I'm obviously bluffing. I hope Kimblee takes the bait, because it's essential he thinks I'm willing to do what he asked. Some guys up here that are loyal to General Armstrong are going to try to get Kimblee out of the way and prevent the circle from being completed. If Kimblee thinks he can trust me, hopefully we can lure him into a trap.

Just following your example, working from the inside. Fingers crossed we can get this psycho out of the picture.
