A relatively common trope of fma fanfiction is the modern Amestris au, which is basically your standard modern au for all your slice of life needs except stuff like alchemy and automail still exist, so the author doesn’t have come up with real world equivalents when that’s not really the point of their fic.

This is all fine and dandy, but one thing that’s always bugged me is that most of the time in these fics Al is just like. a normal, not disembodied, fully abled child. There are several issues with this, mainly that this alteration significantly changes the character dynamic between Ed and Al in ways the author often doesn’t account for at all.

This is also a common issue is regular modern aus, but I bring it up in the context of modern Amestris aus because an idea just occurred to me that I don’t think I’ve seen before: since alchemy still exists, why not have Al just straight up still be in the armor? Put that boy in public school and give him the strangest IEP known to man!

Touchscreens don’t recognize his leather fingers so he has a blackberry (which his hands are way too big for so it takes him twice as long to send most messages because he doesn’t like to leave in typos).

He was both pressured into joining and permanently banned from his middle school’s basketball team within the span of a week.

His condition isn’t secret or anything, it was kind of a big deal at the time and it made the news after it happened but after awhile the buzz mostly died down.

They were contacted by one of those medical mysteries documentary shows (a la extraordinary people), and Pinako told them that if they thought she would let an entire camera crew into her house they were fucking insane.

The initial publicity is the only reason the Amestrian government hasn’t kidnapped him or anything, but they do stalk him and the brothers and the Rockbells have definitely noticed.

If Izumi is Ed and Al’s legal guardian they are much more discreet about it because whenever she spots them hiding in the bushes or whatever she starts reciting castle doctrine law “to no one in particular.”

Because the modern world is a bureaucratic panopticon from hell and also CPS exists instead of just going out into the world to find the philosophers stone the Elrics just have to study real hard and try to eventually get into Alchemy MIT I guess.

Al is physically unable to use any kind of headphones because he has no ears.

He and Mei Chang are playing Minecraft right now as we speak.

A commission by @areyousanta based on a doodle I did not too long ago.

This is based off of Edward and Winry in my Fma au that I’m working on! Long story short, after surviving an accident, Winry needs automail of her own.

Art Wip Game

@artisticallyill you asked about the Battle Cody & Obi so here it is

This one is definitely a bad name. While technically accurate, it's not the defining thing about this. Battle Cody & Obi is the name of my drawing that is my Codywan FMAB AU. Truly the title says nothing, and idk what i was thinking when i named the drawing but it's my fmab au

Here's it is so far:

In this au, the jedi are the state alchemists, Obi-Wan is a general and a state alchemist and a highly revered one but I don't know what his alchemy specialization is yet. Cody is his right hand who watches his back and has several big guns and people are scared of him.

I imagine this drawing to be them fighting Maul, who would absolutely just set a bunch of things on fire, not even with alchemy but with straight up matches cuz he's petty like that and Cody and Obi-Wan are trapped by the fire and waiting to see where he strikes next.

When I was ideating this, I realized that their dynamic is already pretty similar to Mustang and Hawkeye, especially with the "we can't date cuz you're my superior officer/subordinate" and the "i will flirt with others as a tactical move but it's fake and the real adoration only comes out with you"

Find wip game post here

#tag game #my wips #obi wan kenobi #commander cody #codywan #codywan fmab au #i have so many thoughts #i also imagine that one scene where roys abouta smush envy and hawkeye stops him #cuz i want a falling obi beign held at gunpoint by his commander because cody will not let him fall #cody makes him a better jedi okay?#obiwan might start to fall and codys there #theyre a team and they work well together #cody the ever serious one and obi putting on some false bravado to go by unnoticed because people underestimate him #its perfect #i think about it all the time #obi wan loses his state alchemist watch all the freaking time #cody always has it #and he clips it to his person so it comes to a point where people think hes the state alchemist #and they dont know what theyre fighting for or who #fives is hughes too smart for his own good #there are a lot of high ranking separatists and sith but i havent assigned them to a deadly sin yet #something to think about when i go to sleep tonight #fanart #digital art #star wars #my art #my wip art #fmab au #star wars fanart #wip

getting validation for my FMAB AU in 2023 is such a weird happy feeling.

anyways it’s basically maes hughes wakes up as a homunculus 2 years post promise day and tries to re-integrate into his normal life with a little chaos as possible + greed is there too for some reason (moral support?? certainly not. my man’s just trying to get to xing)

Do NOT repost!!

I’m having a lot of fun with this au rn omg, it’s so much fun to draw and think of! And little demon Alphonse has my heart!!

I like to think about Edward loving the fact that Alphonse can change his size because he can be the taller brother in the situation lmao

Currently writing a fanfic for this au, it will be a sort of retelling of demon slayer with Ed and Al as the protagonists, but it won't be completely scene or scene, as some thing have been changed.

Special major plot points from demon slayer have been altered to better fit these characters, I'm having a lot of fun writing it!! Idk when it will be out, I'm still writing it 👍🏼

Fanfic IS OUT!!

hi, I am here to share this sheet I did a while back ( like, two months ago now.)

This is part of my Tangeled Au, where Edward and his father Van Hoho lived. Can't seem to find the bedroom sheet, so I will post it once found

What do you guys think? Can you spot the different details?

I just thought of possibly the cutest/coolest au idea for Fmab: after their mom died, instead of Ed and Al being raised by Granny, the military move them all the way up north to Fort Briggs where they are trained and raised by the Major General Armstrong herself. She takes them under her wing and makes them into the strongest Briggs soldiers anyone has seen yet, and just maybe getting attached to them along the way, though you’d only ever hear her speak of them proudly to those closest to her.

The crisis in Amestris has spread across the Eastern Desert towards the country of Xing.

Many of the clans have fled. Some have been seeking out aid, and some for their own wellbeing.

Adding a bit more to my au! I’ll probably post summaries of the characters and plotlines sometime soon.

I do love how every FMAB AU ever ends with "Also Greed is there. Don't ask how. He just is." (I may also be guilty of this lol) (Also your AU looks very good and I want more <3)

part two is here. he serves a purpose!!! and it’s definitely not just me!!! wanting him there!!!

where that one post that said “greed doesn’t just have the ultimate shield, he is the ultimate shield.” that.

More art for the ishvalan ed au!! This time its rendered and is of him when hes older post time skip. The inspiration for this piece was the idea that after traveling the east Edward contemplates going back to the military and working under Mustang as a alchemical researcher. Theres more details but I will leave it at that for now!
