There are also fanfics that explore alternate universes. In these, the relationship between Ed and Al could be different from the canon. Maybe they are in a world where alchemy works differently, or they have different personalities. This allows for a lot of creativity in exploring their relationship in new settings and scenarios. It can also lead to different interpretations of their bond, whether it becomes more strained or even closer in these alternate worlds.
One possible fanfic could be 'Ed's Magical Adventure in Hogwarts'. In this, Ed uses his alchemical skills in the wizarding world. He might teach the students about different ways of manipulating matter, which is quite similar to magic in some aspects. For example, he could show how to transform basic elements, just like a transfiguration spell.
There's 'Envy's Redemption in Ed's Eyes'. In this fanfic, Envy, who is usually seen as a villain, has a journey of self - discovery with Ed by his side. It's interesting to see how the story unfolds as they interact more and more.
One common theme is friendship. Roy and Ed often form a deep bond in these fanfics. Another theme is mentorship, with Roy sometimes guiding Ed. And there's also the theme of mutual respect. They respect each other's skills and determination.
Well, if Ed was a teacher in a FMA - Harry Potter crossover fanfic, it could be really interesting. He might teach alchemy in Hogwarts. Imagine him trying to explain the principles of alchemy to the wizards, who are used to magic in a different way. He could get frustrated with the lack of understanding at first, but eventually find students who are really into it. He might also have some run - ins with the more traditional teachers who don't quite understand his methods.
In a crossover fanfic, Ed might teach a class on the practical applications of energy manipulation. Alchemy in FMA is all about understanding and controlling energy. He could show the Hogwarts students how to use their magic in more efficient and creative ways, similar to how he uses alchemy. For instance, he could teach them how to focus their magic energy for a more powerful spell, just like he focuses his alchemical energy for a difficult transmutation.
Since it's a fanfiction, it could go in many directions. It might be a story where the characters in FMA are given a chance to see Edward's last transmutation as if it were a replay. This could lead to self - reflection among them. For example, Alphonse might think about how far they've come and how this transmutation was a turning point in their journey. Or it could be a more creative take where the 'watching' is a metaphorical concept and the fanfiction delves deep into the emotions and consequences of that last transmutation in a very different narrative style compared to the original FMA story.
Sure. There is a fanfic named 'Roy and Ed: Alchemy and Trust'. In this story, the author emphasizes how their trust in each other is as important as their alchemical abilities. Another fanfic is 'Roy's Guidance for Ed'. It's about Roy taking Ed under his wing and guiding him not just in alchemy but also in life. And 'Ed and Roy: Partners in Alchemy' is a fanfic that focuses on their partnership in the world of alchemy, showing how they rely on each other to overcome challenges.
They could start by searching on popular fanfiction websites like Fanfiction.net or Archive of Our Own. These platforms have a wide variety of FMA fanfictions that they can explore. Just by using keywords like 'Fullmetal Alchemist' and their own names 'Ed' and 'Al' in the search bar, they'll likely find many relevant stories.
Well, 'Fullmetal Hearts' is a fanfiction that Ed and Al might enjoy watching. It focuses on the relationship between the brothers and how they grow even closer through different adventures. There's also 'Beyond the Gate of Truth', which explores what could happen if they ventured further into the mysteries of alchemy in a unique way.
