    Summary

    "'A life for a life,' it had drawled happily. 'But with a twist! Edward, I want to believe you're not so naive to think that reality revolves only around your singular, dispensable timeline, yes?'"

    --

    The Law of Equivalent Exchange is bullshit. That's what Edward Elric decides after he wakes up in a dumpster after he makes a risky deal with Truth. Aizawa Shota's list of problem children just keeps getting longer by the second, and Japan probably isn't ready for the uncontrollable hurricane of destruction that is the Fullmetal Alchemist.

    --

    FMA x BNHA crossover fic because I'm a little bit funky and cringe! Canon divergence where Ed gives up his life to bring Al back, but it doesn't go quite as planned.

    Summary

    Aizawa is given a case directly from Hawks that concerns some sort of witchcraft. He was not given too much but apparently there's a kid involved and he's not allowed to contact the commission. Upon further investigation, he discovers truly horrifying things and he knows he can't do it alone. Nedzu gets involved and helps to point him in the right direction.

    Meanwhile in Amestris, Edward Elric has been missing for a month and with no leads available Mustang is forced to make a decision on whether or not to declare him as dead. Everyone that is able has been searching but without any leads they're starting to lose hope. That is until they get a certain letter from a certain school in Japan.

    Together they will investigate the potential threats. Everything is on the line here and Mustang can only hope that he makes it on time.

    Summary

    “Tell me,” Ling began, voice deadly serious. His gaze was piercing, as though looking into Edward’s very soul. “How many people do you have inside of you?”

    --------

    Edward was born earlier, to a much younger Hohenheim. Even with a much different start to life, one thing still holds true: he loves Alphonse more than anything, even if his beloved brother does stupid things like run off and join the military at age 11.

    Summary

    There was something strange about this world. Something in the air. Ed wasn't quite sure what it was, but he was going to get to the bottom of this.

    When Edward Elric travels through the portal after defeating Father, Truth refuses to accept Ed's alchemy in exchange for Alphonse. He is faced with three choices, none appealing. Either return empty-handed, sacrifice his own life for Alphonse's, or do a favor for Truth. He picks option three, and finds himself waking up on a trash-covered beach in a strange world, one where every man, woman, and child have some strange power. In order to get home, he must accomplish whatever it is that Truth wants from him, and unfortunately, the being is not exactly inclined to provide thorough explanations.

    Summary

    Amestris: the militaristic nation of alchemy, hidden deep within the Quirkless Sector. Most think its mysteries will never be solved, and Class 1-A is inclined to agree—until suddenly summer camp is canceled and they’re headed on a field trip to the most mysterious country in the world, blissfully ignorant of the conspiracies that have been brewing under the surface for centuries.

    The State Alchemist stuck playing babysitter, however, knows more than he should. That’s what got him into this mess in the first place.

    OR: Ed plays bodyguard for Class 1-A visiting Amestris.

    Summary

    Work in progress. "Search for the value of that which you seek, for alchemy already knows." Alchemy knew what Edward wanted when his fingertips touched that circle, but Edward did not yet understand how value differs from price, how equivalent differs from equal. The Gate calculates with one small difference, and Trisha Elric lives - but the cost may be too high for Edward to afford.

    [ Originally published on FFN 16 June 2009. A very detailed, very slow exploration of the creators' headcanon through Edward's eyes - and sometimes Roy's - with lengthy discourses on alchemical theory, juicy helpings of political intrigue, a few near-death experiences here and there, and maybe an assassination attempt or two. Explores in detail the political and social spheres of Amestris and beyond in the context of Roy's ladder-climbing, aided by Edward's presence as a researcher. You could consider this a fix-it, but it's more like a highly involved worldbuilding reboot. Long-running, takes time between updates, but chapters are 20-30k long. Be prepared to indulge and suspend your disbelief. Leave canon at the doorstep; this is something else entirely. ]

    As far back as Al could remember, Ed was an Adult. Sure, he was shorter than Mom, but there was no denying his Big Brother (the best big brother in the world) was an adult.
    But then, he left, along with his Dad. And Mom died.
    And even though Ed came back (Alone. Where was Dad?) Al would do anything for his family to be complete again.
    Even if it meant committing Alchemy's Greatest Taboo.

    Summary

    It's well known that currently, 80% of the world population has a quirk by now, leaving the remaining 20% quirkless. Class 1-A was surprised by the announcement Aizawa-sensei was giving to them for two reasons:

    One, there's going to be an exchange student into the Hero Course, which is very weird considering that U.A. doesn't accept exchange students of any kind; and two, this person is from Amestris: the isolated, militarized country where 99% of the population is quirkless.

    The Promised Day goes very, very wrong. Edward Elric, thrust through to the other side of the Gate in the battle, is left to bear the consequences of his and his father's failures. Holding the regrets and sacrifices of an entire country in his chest, he must find a way to save them all and bring them back home without costing any more lives.
    Fortunately for him, a whole world of magic exists in the world beyond the Gate. But after hundreds of years of trying, it's beginning to feel like he will never be freed of his sins.
    With a grown deep distrust of wizards, when Nicholas Flamel sends his Philosopher's Stone to Hogwarts, Ed takes it upon himself to keep it safe from them, even if he has to face his past mistakes.

    "The North?" Edward asked incredulously, gaping at the order.

    "Yes, Fullmetal, the North. There's an outpost fifty kilometers from the Drachman border, and the previous person stationed there has taken an abrupt leave for around a month or so. Führer Bradley himself has ordered that you see to looking after it until around January when she comes back from her leave." Mustang looked at him with slight irritation over his stack of neglected and overdue paperwork, as if he couldn't believe Edward was angry over being sent halfway across the country.

    Summary

    Edward Elric would die before he was thirty, of that he was sure. It had been seven years since he came to that conclusion—he'd sold his soul and made a deal with the devil to preserve someone else's life. Yet as his borrowed time ran out, Edward realized he'd do it all again. If this were the personal hell he'd been allotted, he'd live it a thousand times over to save Al's life. Because Al was his little brother, and he was all Edward had left. 


    or


    After escaping Germany in 1916, Edward goes against everything he once thought he knew and becomes a criminal to protect and provide for Alphonse. Seven years later, he gets caught up in a string of murders after foolishly attending university. The deeper he gets, Edward's web of lies comes crashing down, because a life built on spider silk can never last.

    Summary

    Edward froze. Slipping his head out from Hohenheim's grasp, he stared into the sun, eyes adjusting to the figure on the balcony. It had Hohenheim's face. And as his father recoiled, asking if that man was the homunculus in the flask, all he could see was that Al's murderer bore the appearance of the only family he had left.

    "What have you done?"

    "You gave me blood. In return, I gave you knowledge and freedom; now I've given you a body that will live forever."

    OR, Edward is born in 1488, and when Father attempts to immortalize Van Hohenheim, Edward is caught up in the circle. Newly immortal, the only family he has left is a man he's grown to resent and his brother's soul, trapped within his chest. Over the course of four hundred years, Edward fights to separate the souls in the stone, because there isn't a world where he won't give up everything for Alphonse.

    Summary

    Accidentally being born 500 years too early, and then accidentally getting your father killed at, like, 12, and then 15 years after you were never supposed to be born you’re standing in the center of a circle of destruction holding a tiny bastard in a flask as your country gets torn to shreds because of one man’s idiocy. And in the middle of that, you become the sole idiot following a non-existent ‘religion’ for some spotty asshole in a white void. Also, limbs? Never heard of those.

    Safe to say, Edward Hohenheim was positively completely fucked over in every way possible.

    He doesn’t even know why he tries to save this stupid country.

    Summary

    Truth was Everything. All, One, the World, the Universe, Everyone, and that just looped back to Everything. It could go on and on. It could see the future, the past, the present, and a thousand different versions of the exact same moment.

    When one (1) Edward Elric shows up at the Gate after attempting the revival of a small dead bird at the age of not-just-quite five, Truth performed a quick background, present, and future-ground check to see what exactly this kid was thinking.

    What It finds makes the boring white void seem a little more exciting.
