Happy birthday!!!! More FMA!
He’s fucking tired.
In Xerxes, he’s Van Edris. In Xerxes, he’s the son of a former slave, having narrowly escaped being born into his father’s fate by virtue of him being awarded freedom by the time of his birth. In Xerxes, he’s an uncommon commodity, an alchemist with a skill that hasn’t been seen since his father fucked off to who knows where.
In Amestris, he’s Edward Elric. In Amestris, he’s the son of Trisha Elric who was born free and died free because while there are lots of different forms of freedom, in Amestris there’s one that everyone shares. In Amestris, he’s unknown and unremarkable and no one gives a fuck about what he does.
“You’ve got to be kidding me,” he says flatly.
This is what he gets for visiting his father’s country. It’s just fucking unfortunate that the really good alchemical texts are here.
He should have let Al (Van Altun, as they know him, even though the two of them having been using their Amestrian names almost their whole lives, regardless of what country they were in) do it. They’re not nearly as weird about him.
Pakor is alright, as far as kings go. He’s freed a lot of people, is poking at the laws of ownership that has governed his country for centuries to see if he can do anything about them without getting beheaded for it. He’s also known Ed since he was a barely able to walk, back when his father still made court appearances and brought the family along with him. Former slave against most talented alchemist in the country, and people tended to politely ignore the former. Hell, Ed’s been counting on the same thing since he was twelve.
Of course, now it’s coming back to bite him. People say he’s a genius, but if he was really smart he would have stayed far, far away from court. Like in Amestris, perhaps.
“You’re fluent in both languages,” Pakor says, coaxing.
“So are you,” he says accusingly. “We’re speaking Amestrian right now!”
Pakor sighs and switches to Xerxian. “You also speak Xingese and Drachman. You’re a difficult man to keep secrets from.”
“I’m also Amestrian!” he shouts. “And free, might I add! You can’t sell me off to slavery just to get some intel!”
“It’s not like we’ll brand you,” he says, affronted, and Ed is reminded that alright for a king is still pretty shitty. “We just need someone to do a little – double checking. To ensure the situation in Amestris is as it’s advertised.”
“You want to gift me to the Fuhrer to spy on him and you’re, what, just hoping he doesn’t notice that I understand everything and know everything and am, oh yeah, one of his citizens? I’ve been to Central before! With my luck, I’ll get recognized the first day here and then run out of Amestris! And, again, Amestris doesn’t have slaves! The leader of the country really can’t have one.”
Pakor sighs. “You’re very dramatic, Edris. It won’t be so bad. Here, I’ll say you’re my personal slave and that you’re on loan. It’ll be for cultural exchange purposes. He speaks Xingese, so you can communicate in that language without letting on you know Amestrian.”
Ed pinches the bridge of his nose. “This is a stupid fucking idea.”
“If you do this,” Pakor says, “I’ll give you the key to the royal library.”
Ed slowly lowers his hand, eyes narrowing. “I’ve been asking you to let me in there for years.”
“I figured I’d need to bargain it away eventually,” he says. “I was hoping you’d marry one of my daughters for it.” Having even light court obligations is bad enough, he’s in no way stupid enough to marry in. “You’re very difficult, you know. I’m your king. I shouldn’t have to bargain with you.”
“Tough shit,” Ed says, because Pakor may have known him for nearly twenty years, but that knowing goes both ways. Besides, he can’t piss him off because then he and Al will stop reparing all their shit bridges and infrastructure. “Fine. But if I lose my Amestrian citizenship over this, I’m going to be pissed.”
“Noted,” Pakor says brightly.
Uhg.
It doesn’t help that everything he’s heard about Fuhrer Mustang makes the man sound insufferable.

God, you know Ed would have the strongest flames
They’re literally called Dying Will Flames and Ed basically embodies the indomitable human will
He quite literally killed and bargained with two different gods and escaped death who knows how many times through sheer force of will
No wonder the Arcobaleno want him so bad
See this is the vibe I'm going for right here.
Tsuna's Flames are Strong, stronger than any the Vongola has seen since Giotto himself.
Al is also Strong, terrifyingly so, but he's Quieter(TM) than either of his brothers.
But Ed? Ed's Flames are monstrous.
And the moment that he realizes this new world with this new adorable brother is going to try and eat him and his??
Well, Ed has always been at his most power with something on the line.
Ed is a tsunami, a hurricane, a loving cataclysm in constant motion that draws you up and in and keeps you forever. If you're strong enough. If your own Flames can keep up.
A Sky capable of holding other Skies.
Ed could have held the Sky Pacifier for centuries if Kawahira had gotten his hands on him.
Of course the Arcobaleno want him.

my 2 favorite things to draw......the devils nest and Face Shapes. this concept was made for me
under the cut is some rambling about the gang in an actual dungeon meshi au (ft Major Spoilers)
the chimeras would all still be beastmen obviously. every day i thank ryoko kui for my life for putting chimeras in her thing. roa and dolcetto i think would have been pit fighters as an equivalent to being soldiers, martels also ex military but i feel like "got blown up, woke up half snake" would translate well to getting fused with a monster in a dungeon. and then bido would have a more izutsumi type backstory
greed would have earned their loyalty somehow but im not fully settled on What his deal would be. like conceptually the original homunculus is very similar to a demon (weird mystery entity) (bound to serve) (eternally Craving) (trapped in a thing and wants out) but greed specifically is, like, a chill version that i dont think would want to eat peoples desires because he likes it when people have those. and i dont know if a Chill Demon is justifiable lore-wise. counterpoint though: he would really love having a fursona. tell me YOUR thoughts in the comments below i guess (or my askbox whatever)

Every time Ed meets an Arcobaleno, Reborn is foaming at the mouth and beating them off with a stick because that is his!!! Sky!!! Back!!! Off!!!
(On Ed’s part, he just thinks he’s beefing with all the Not Babies except Lal bc she reminds him on some level of Hawkeye and he’s not dumb enough to beef with anyone who even remotely resembles her)
Oh god yes. Reborn is pressed. Because yes the Arcobaleno are also His but goddamn it, he doesn't need them butting in on his business right now.
Meanwhile, Ed treats Lal like Hawkeye, ignores the fuck out of Colonnello's loud ass, gets along surprisingly well with Skull because Aestethic, is always |.| this close to punting Fon through a wall, thinks Viper is pretentious, thinks Reborn is Very Pretentious, and is ready to knife fight Verde's no ethics having ass in any parking lot at any time ever.
Meanwhile, they all find him some degree of delightful and fascinating.
