Part of me wishes the ending to Brohood had been Ed bursting into the Rockbell house, with Al slung over his shoulder like a sack of potatoes, and yelling “LOOK WHO I FOUND”
What do you mean this isn’t canon? Anti-Fraternization law? What are you talking about? Basically, Al and Mei are back from Xing, and Ed volunteered to take them to Roy’s office for some Xing-related business.
AHH, finally finished this! Wanted to post this last July 7 as a gift for myself but nope. Many thanks to @pahndah who’s been so patient with me on the anatomy ;u; as well as my FMA trash bbs @swordbreaker and @thecoolandspicyotaku for helping me with the ranking of Riza and Roy! (who’s already a Colonel and a General, respectively. I also hope you notice the uniform exchange) I know nothing, as in nothing, about the Military, so v many thanks to you two! (all uniform mistakes are mine!)
“Excuse me,” said Duke Edward Elric of Resembool Kingdom. He bowed, though it was quite the feat considering he was wearing layers upon layers of stiff clothing. Honestly, the entire thing was superfluous. “I’m here to court Princess Winry Rockbell.”
Queen Pinako tutted. Because tutting seems like a thing you’d do in a Regency type of AU.
“Sorry, you’re too short,” said Pinako. “The Princess doesn’t like men below five feet.”
“WHAT!?” Edward crowed. He stomped over but two armored knights (??) ushered him back. He stood on his toes to no avail as he was not tall enough to see over them. “LISTEN HERE, YOU MINIATURE HAG–”
Suddenly, Princess Winry spun into the room. Her 500-layer skirt unfurled like a rose. She stopped in front of the tiny duke.
“State your purpose,” she said.
“Winry, I’ve known you since we were kids. I literally walked Den like an hour ago.”
“Guaaaards!” she began, to which Ed blanched. Something about suits of armor unsettled him, though he couldn’t put his finger on why.
“WAIT!” he exclaimed. “I just want to ask you to marry me.”
Winry blushed.
Ed blushed.
They stared at each other, blushing.
“Oh,” said Winry.
They blushed some more.
After blushing for a solid minute or so, Ed cleared his throat. “So, uh….wanna, like, do this?”
Winry nodded. “Yes. Let’s get married effective immediately. As you know, we’re fifteen which means we’re ticking time bombs in this period. Before one of us contracts the plague, we must get married.”
