I am so glad one of my high school classmates was a big FMA fan. Now I can finally put the crash course she gave me on its anime to good use. I love how this (re)introduction to the brothers starts off, especially Ed. He's such a sweetheart in this chapter, and his protective streak is so adorable. Looking forward to where this story will be going. :)
