When Life Gives You Lemons

by Scaehime

...What else can you do besides make lemonade? Ed decides to make apple juice. Winry might make apple pie. Or maybe she'll throw a wrench at the messenger's head. I have a handful of ideas for future updates, but I'm open to requests as long as they don't involve 'romantic' lemons. Shoutouts to requesters if I use an idea. Story art hand-drawn by me. Enjoy!

3. Make apple pies

Make apple pie.

"Wow, this apple pie is delicious, Winry!" Ed exclaimed, not caring about keeping his usual calm facade, and, for some reason, not caring that he didn't care. "Where'd you get such sweet fruit to make it?"

"You really want to know?" Winry replied, smirking mentally.

Ed nodded as he scarfed down another huge bite of the sweet apple pie.

"From the lemons you and Al brought," Winry answered nonchalantly.

"Are you okay, Brother?" Al asked Ed, who had just choked on that bite of pie.

Ed coughed a bit, calmed his breathing, and answered, "Yeah, I'm fine. Thanks, Al." To Winry, he said, "How did you get apple pie using lemons?"

"You have your secrets, and I have mine," she answered with a laugh. "Equivalent exchange, right?"

A/N: Sorry this is a couple days late, to those who have been waiting. To those who haven't, e.g. those who come across this fic later, sorry for taking up this extra space with unnecessary apologies.

God bless!
