Apparently I've really ticked people off with this rant. A lot of people who have read this said I should apologize. I've come to understand that you only apologize if you feel as if you were in the wrong. When an apology is not acceptable is in the circumstance that you truly believe in what you are saying. Do I believe that Edward is asexual? No. There is no way to truthfully indicate what his sexual preference is (please be in love with and marry Alphonse) we can only speculate. That is what I did. Now as for the ticking other's off part for attacking people who read this I'd like to say that I believe that that is how Edward would react. His character is not one to give up and give in to what he would see as a threat to him or obviously his brother. Edward's character isn't exactly one for big fancy words or to beat around the bush to insult or threaten back. Now imagine an Edward who has had a lifetime of suffering, a lifetime of disappointment, a lifetime of pain, a lifetime of tears, a lifetime of hardship and you tell me how he would act towards other people. Am I going to go out of character? No. Am I going to delete this story not at all. I am however going to make a suggestion to those who were angered by the idea I proposed here and that being that Edward is asexual. Read my other stories, don't base one thing I wrote on all of my work that my dear readers is being biased.

With that said let me address something else; if you are going to report me then report me. If I get suspended from the site or kicked off I can always come back and repost my stories. It's not that big of a deal for me.

I always have enjoyed a challenge and that is what everyone is provoking. I have come to understand that a few of you have been insulted by what I said yesterday. So I weighed my options, I can either go out for a walk around the block a few times or sit here and point out everyone's flaws. I always have been a fan of the latter.

The 'reviews' or rather what I've come to learn are called flames all sang the same song to me. Apologize, apologize, apologize. Now my question to all of you is, what for? I was blatantly attacked and simply defended myself why would I apologize for that. If someone came up to you and clobbered you in the head would you start yelling, 'I'm sorry, I'm sorry'? No! In most instances most people would try and fight back. That is what I did, I fought back.

Someone even had the nerve in one of these flames to call me a coward and let me tell you that's almost as bad as when people say, yes people still say it, 'but you're so short'. It was also said that I should take responsibility for my actions. I really thought long and hard as to how I could reply to that one until I realized something, you're all just pissed off because I have threatened you're 'fan girl' way of life. From my understanding women are vicious especially when you say something that they KNOW they are right about.

I know that by my complaining nothing will change, the world will still turn on its axis, the sun will still rise and set, you people will still write yaoi and elricest. It was a hard pill to swallow but one that I've come to accept as just how some people choose to view things but god damn it that's not going to stop me from trying.

Okay, first off, Ed has a point... so back off all you vultures he's mine!! snaps fingers and a blue spark snaps off... Second off... Ed is just a crabby old man, lol. Okay, yeah... Bye. –Riana Mustang

I am not yours you sick little twisted fan girl. I don't want to be yours, I never will be yours. Get out of your little fantasy world and get a fucking life! If you thought that by using a word I frequently use will get you in my favor you were horribly mistaken kid. That only makes it all the more disturbing. You go to that side of the room and I'll catch the next train out of here. Stay the hell away from me!

WO! For once I wasn't signed out! Anyways, let's just get down to business.

I actually wasn't going to review this really; Ed is SUCH a mean, old, grumpy geezer that I was sorta detoured from it...I think what did it most sufficiently was the mental image of a really old him and a really old Alphonse doing Elricest stuff...yeah, that made my mind snap the first time I though of that. However, having that image burned into my head all night in my twisted, twisted dreams pretty much took away all repulsion toward it and now I'm just dandy with the idea. I think it's sweet. :) Kinda like YOUR MOM. ::most likely knocked upside the head by Ed at this point:: But then also, I'm actually currently engaged with, I do believe it's a younger version but I could be wrong (at least he hasn't said anything about his specific age), another Ed in a similar...hm, "debate" would be the word I'd use but he may think otherwise. (Mayuna is familiar with the fic, I'm sure. She's left some reviews on it herself.) I'm still waiting for a reply, though I'm not sure I'll get one since I called him short. Like 12 times, in a row. Maybe more. And his rant, although lacking no anger or hatred toward the fangirl population, just some how seemed nicer then this old guy's venting. (Even if he did threaten to kill me, though I'm sure you'll get around to doing the same.) I'm wondering if it has anything to do with age: am I more afraid of an old man then I am of a little boy?

Anyways the bottom line is, I guess if I'm gonna torment Edward Elric as a little kid by being a fangirl I should keep on tormenting him right on till his death. And then follow after him and torment him some more! It's kinda like that kindergarden love theory: if you like someone you must pick up a rock, kiss it, tell it all the wonderful, beautifl things you'd tell your would-be love, and then chuck that sucka as hard as you can at their head.

Hey Ed, how tall are you anyways? Or are you still as small and cute as ever:) ::most likely backhanded by the automail at this point:: That just hurt a lot. Still alive though. And moving on.

"...I am absolutely out of my mind, rape people, kill my brother, kill myself..."

That actually sounds a lot like what I write. I'm thinking I might just ditch this place to go read Mayuna's other fics and then the two of us can get together and do some group brainstorming on other various forms of insanity. Tell me Ed, what's you're favorite form of torture? And exactly what type of bondage should we use on Al: leather or good old fashioned iron shackles and chains?

And yes, it is pretty fun to tick you off. You know why? BECAUSE YOU'RE JUST SO ADORABLE WHEN YOU'RE ANGRY! No Matter How Old You Get::fangirlly scream, attempts to glomp Ed, most likely gets stabbed repeatedly in the torso::

Okay well, I guess I'll see you around...Unless you're just so horribly scared by my mindset that it's YOU who's gonna stay as far away from me as you can (now that's something to brag about to your friends; the great Edward "FullMetal Alchemist" Elric is scared to face down a little teegage girl)...Of course, I think I was being fairly mild. Your younger self in that other rant thing...yeah, he has it WAY worse. I'm at least considering the fact that you're most likely old enough to kill over at any moment from a heart attack if I said anything to...well, I don't really imagine there's much I could say at this point that would shock you, yeah? But still, that younger version of you hasn't gotten back to me yet and I'm beginning to wonder if he ever will... –Child Of The Dragon

Stick with your first initial feeling in any circumstance it usually is the best one to go by. Instead you have sent me this meaningless, pointless drabble that I just couldn't pass up due to its wrongness. Firstly, I don't know who you have been talking to that is going around saying they are me but I have never heard of you before but if you act worse around this person then you deserve every insult and threat thrown at you. There was a time where I'd get upset if anyone bad mouthed my mother but if that's the best you can come up with then it's really pointless to waste any of my time on it.

I will tell you what bothered me though. The mental image of my brother and I doing the nasty at our ages disturbed you? Well it disturbs me too! I was TRYING to detour you vultures from thinking those thoughts that's why I said it not so you could realize how fucking adorable it is you twisted freak! That image was burned into your head, well thanks a fucking lot because now the image of my brother tied to a bed is forever burned in mine! I don't even think I'll be able to look him in the eye with out getting red in the face and having to swallow a nitro glycerin pill!

You have every right to be afraid of an older person for these reasons. A person can experience a lot in a lifetime that can harden them and give them idea's on where are the prime places to hide bodies. Older people tend to have judicial sympathy because we can always feign dementia, Alzheimer's or some other dehabilitating condition. Lastly as you said, I could keel, not kill over get it right damn it, over at any time so even if I do make it through the trial I won't be in jail that long. Take that with you when you sleep at night.

I sympathize for you, Mr. Elric. Yaoi is a sick and disgusting thing. Personally, I don't care if you have a relation or not. I watch the show for the action. What you do with your personal life is your own damn business. Thank you. - Mr. Thumbsup

Finally someone who truly understands what I am getting at here. There have been a few people who say they understand then immediately respond with 'come away with me Edward I'll protect you'. That is just ludicrous. This makes me glad and hopeful for the rest of the population however that the show will be seen just for that and not be dissected to see what tiny insignificant instances or what someone says can be interpreted too if you twist and pull on the fabric of reality hard enough to unweave it. Thank you I appreciate it.

I tried to be 'nicer' today and I think I did a fairly knock out job. There were some I really wanted to address but didn't to spare feelings because yes I am a grumpy old geezer as someone so blatantly put it, but that doesn't mean I don't have a conscious. I just learned how to ignore it over the years.
