#ednoah

Summary: In the seven years since Edward Elric had last seen the Gate, he really felt he'd pulled his life together. He'd gotten married, had a couple of kids, and actually managed to settle down. But when his life is thrown into chaos, he finds himself suddenly waking up somewhere he's never seen before: 1927 Germany. In the four years since Edward Elric had last seen the Gate, he really felt he'd pulled his life together. He'd managed to get Al adjusted to this world, got an apartment, and even found himself a best friend in Noah. But when his life is thrown into chaos, he finds himself suddenly waking up somewhere familiar: Amestris. Except... this isn't his Amestris. (Also known as "BH Ed and 03 Ed switch bodies and cause chaos in the other's life.")

[ID: A digital drawing of Noah from Fullmetal Alchemist smelling three flowers while she looks at the viewer, blushing. The work is colored with a different color palette, so Noah is wearing green clothes, besides the white cloth and yellow jewelry. Each flower she holds has a different color: white, yellow and red/orange, from left to right. The background is green, with a few red/orange and yellow flowers behind Noah. /End ID]

Nasturtiums for Noah (except I can't draw flowers and I drew this while sleep-deprived so their sizes are probably not accurate)

... it's literally the name of the palette btw

Also POV you're Edward Elric and you wonder what you've done to meet such a gorgeous woman

DO NOT REPOST WITHOUT PERMISSION!

Hate will be blocked.

It’s only later, when Al has gone to sleep, that Noah comes to sit with him by the dying fire and hands him a beer.

Their hands briefly touch in the exchange. Ed takes it without a word, though his skin feels warm where her fingers just were.

They sit in silence for a moment. Ed lets out a silent sigh.

“You were thinking about Alfons, right?”

He tenses up, wants to protest and lie. There’s no use. Noah has seen right through him.

There’s no point in hiding. So he lets himself be seen.

“Yes."

If you would like a fic that is both a prequel and a standalone of Ed and Winry finding happiness separately (before everything goes to shit in the main fic)
