Elemental Chess Trilogy/Heartwarming
Just as awesome as the series from which it was inspired, the Elemental Chess Trilogy contains just as much funny, sad and awesome as the original Fullmetal Alchemist, where readers have been known to ask the author if she is actually Arakawa in disguise. As such, here is the Heartwarming entry.
Flowers of Antimony
- Alphonse's reaction when he finds out that Edward is getting married.
- Roy and Riza's subtle but meaningful conversation in Chapter 3:
"You equate protection with love, Colonel?" |
- Edward's explanation of a chimera to Winry in Chapter 5 which is so ridiculous it crosses over with a Crowning Moment of Funny:
Edward: "A chimera is what you get when you get two life forms and more or less merge them into one being." |
- The Team Mustang reunion in Chapter 6.
- Riza's promise to Winry:
"You asked me why I was a soldier. I told you that it's because there's someone I need to protect, and you seemed to understand that. Well, starting right now, I have two people I need to protect." Obeying some maternal instinct, she brushes hair out of Winry's eyes. "I will bring him back safely. All right?" |
The Game of Three Generals
- When Roy is put on trial for the murder of Fuhrer Grumman we get this exchange.
Prosecutor: Well, maybe you love your ambition more than you love your wife. |
