Dabbling in Drabbles of the FMA Variety

by KatsyKat

I'm trying my hand at the art of the 'true drabble': Fullmetal Alchemist style. 100 of them to be exact… funny, serious, happy, sad, good, and most likely some bad. Themes still somewhat open to suggestion. Feedback is always appreciated - good or bad!

The teeth-grinding groans were almost worse than actual screams, Pinako decided, slowly setting down the torch, and removing her helmet to wipe her brow.

The boy's eyes, previously squeezed shut and turned away in pain, opened in surprise at the break.

"That's enough for now." She stated.

"Aww… You said the welding'd be done today, damnit!" Ed's face crumpled in disappointment.

"It's okay, Ed." Winry said, welding shield in place, as she took the torch. "I'll finish, Granny."

"Mind the scar tissue." Pinako cautioned, glancing from one determined expression to the other, marveling at the children's endless fortitude.
