Okay, I know I said that AlxMei is more obvious in the manga than it was in Brotherhood, but… seriously. It’s far more salient in the manga. Everybody ships it. Everyone.
Alchemy is based on the law of equivalent exchange. The price of even a failed human transmutation was enormous. It cost my brother his left leg, and it cost me my whole body. Do you see it? My brother drew that with his own blood. His leg had been taken. He was bleeding. I can’t imagine the pain he was in. But through all that, he still gave up his right arm to transmute my soul, and bonded me to this suit of armor. Now, I just want to help him get his body back to the way it was. He wants to find a way to get me back to normal, too. It won’t be easy. We might even get killed along the way. But that’s the path we chose. All we can do is keep moving.
Basically, Ed and Al are science prodigies attending a super prestigious academy through a mysterious scholarship. This, the school itself, and half the country’s businesses are all run by the same corporation that’s up to some shady business.
This is so silly but I put more doodles + story here:
