Disclaimer: I don't even own a miniskirt. What makes you think I own FMA?

Miniskirts

The day had finally arrived: Roy Mustang was Fuhrer of Amestris. And his first order…the Miniskirt Law.

"I'm not the only one who will object to it." General Riza Hawkeye (1) said, standing by him as he sighed the papers for the new law.

Roy half smiled. "I doubt that."

She frowned at him. "Sir, it's a sexist and completely inappropriate law! It serves no purpose than to satisfy the desires of the male soldiers!"

"I disagree with you. After all, despite what you may think, this law is not in the interests of the men. I'm looking out for the women in the military!"

"Oh really?" She crossed her arms and raised one eyebrow.

"Yes! Think about it: There are women in this military who like skirts, and even prefer skirts to pants, am I right?"

"Well, yes, you are probably right about that…"

"Also, in summer, isn't it hot under that heavy uniform? If you wear a skirt, it will be much cooler. And by the way, I'm introducing in uniforms with a lighter fabric for summertime."

"Ok, you have a good point…"

"And consider this: by wearing a skirt, you have more options for tights, stockings, and socks. It's like a school uniform; the socks are optional."

"…..you're making it difficult for me to argue with this plan."

"So, do you agree?" He smiled triumphantly.

"Not yet. I said it was difficult, but not impossible. I still say that this law serves to provide eye-candy for the men in our military as well as the country."

He shook his head. "General, listen to yourself. You really are looking down on men. Not every soldier has a leg fetish."

"Just you?" She smirked a little.

"Yes just mNO! NO!" He cleared his throat. "Not at all! You're putting words in my mouth! That is not my reasoning for instating this law! I told you, I'm looking out for the females in our military."

"While giving yourself something to ogle at."

"…."

"Do you deny it?"

"….Ok, we'll compromise…."

And so, the Miniskirt law was put into place, except that the "required" part was changed to "optional." However, most of the female staff wore the skirts. Including Riza!

"I…it's only because it's summer and its hot!"

"But it's still springtime."

"…get back to work!"
