Disclaimer: I do not own Fullmetal Alchemist, only my OC(s)

Okay, This is my first Fullmetal Alchemist story, and this chapter will be just to introduce the character, so it will be short and a little bit boring *sweatdrop*

Oh well, enjoy~

The Cliches of life

You know, I always did hate cliches .

You know, how you read those fanfictions about girls falling into some anime universe, somehow managing to survive, and falling in love with some cute guy.

Yeah, those kinds of cliches.

Now, I'm not the kid of girl that is the main character of a story. I'm not really pretty (not that I'm ugly), I don't have a flat chest (which seems to be a common factor), I'm not unbelievably kind or naive, and I don't have a tragic past (another common factor).

In fact, I'm kind of like the character that would be the main character's best friend. I'm not loud or outspoken, I'm pretty reserved and like to think before I act (but I have my spazzy moments). I tend to give fairly good advice, am pretty confident with myself, and always seems to be lost in a daydream......

Anyway, I would be the weird, anime obsessed, best friend that the main character depends on and observes from the background. No, I'm not being harsh on myself, that's just what I'd be characterized as.

Sure, I'd like to be that spunky heroine everybody loves and find true love after vanquishing some arch foe (or getting them to fall for her), but I don't think I could ever find the heart to change myself into something I'm not. I've never been one for conforming.

After all, heroines are either strong or weak, I'm neither. I've been seen as the strong best friend when I stand next to mine, but I have trouble being mean to people, I don't really think many people hate me. I usually keep my snide comments to myself and save my sarcasm for my friends.

I am not romantic, at all. Sure I want to fall in love someday, every girl does. I just can't take any romance novel or fairytale seriously. Whenever I see those Full Moon (Twilight) commercials and Edward telling Bella he's leaving her forever, I burst out laughing. Someone could be dying in the room and I would still laugh. As for fairytales, well, let's just say my mom told me I never believed in old Saint Nick, and only ever watched Hercules and Mulan instead of the Disney princess stories.

I suppose you're wondering why I'm rambling like this. Well, my life is about to turn into one big cliche- with the slight glitch that I am not fit for a leading role.

Well, whatever force is making my life into one of these cliches better watch out, I'm not taking this lying down. I'm doing what I do best- being anticlimactic and not doing what you should do in these types of situations.

I'm taking the cliché out of this.

Though I'm going to eventually to learn that anyone can be a leading role in their own way, the best friend can kick ass after all, and all those other mushy lessons. Who knows, I might even learn to like cliches.

But I don't know that yet, I don't have a clue about anything yet.

All I know is that I'm going to try to draw the Fullmetal Alchemist characters for the first time.

Okay, I know that was boring, but the next one will be when the story actually starts, look forward to it!

R&R~
