It pisses me off so bad the sheer lack of disability rep in people's fma modern aus so I made this because I think I'm actually going to commit acts of violence if I see one more au where Al is able bodied or Ed has both arms.
More information about the au below the cut
I did a bit of research on prosthetics for this because I'm not an amputee so I don't have any personal experience with prosthetics. Ed's leg is fairly standard as far as electric above the knee prosthetics go but he has a leg cover so it resembles his automail from the show. (he probably has other options too so he can change them out as he pleases) Ed also doesn't have an arm prosthetic. From what I can tell there's not many options as far as prosthetics go for people who've lost their arm at the shoulder and I'm gonna be honest I don't think Ed would really want a prosthetic arm until modern prosthetic technology is more similar to what is available in the FMA universe.
I haven't exactly decided what Al has but whatever I do decide will have to be genetic because he inherited it from his mother. I'll definitely have to do some research on what might have symptoms that are kinda the real life equivalent of Al's situation in the show. I also forgot to mention he has insomnia. I wasn't sure how to adapt the Al is a sweet little kid stuck in a suit of armor that scares people thing but you win some you loose some.
Please please please ask me questions about this au I really want to talk about it :000
Edit: oh my god this post was a pain in the ass to get formatted correctly but hopefully it's fine now

Flashback to the time I showed my friend who doesn’t watch anime Fullmetal Alchemist 2003 and then Brotherhood, and she asked why they bimbofied Edward.
She kept saying “if this was other edward, he would’ve fixed this problem already”.

I am obsessed with the way Mustang just took over the role of Ed and Al’s dad. He took one look at those boys and went “oops guess im a father now” whether he was aware of it or not.
“It’s been awhile since we saw each other… why don’t we have a cup of tea?”
HE MISSES THEM AND WANTS TO HAVE TEA WITH EDWARD TO TALK ABOUT THINGS. THIS MAN IS LITERALLY A FATHER.
AND THE WAY HE JUST?? SETS UP MEETINGS WITH PEOPLE TO HELP ED??? (Yes, even though Tucker is a horrible person, he potentially had a lot of information that could’ve been very useful to Edward. And Mustang wasted absolutely no time in helping him.)
AND THE WAY HE SENDS HAVOC TO GO PICK THEM UP. HE LITERALLY PULLED THE “Sorry I’m busy and I can’t pick up my kids can you go get them for me”

Happy 20th Fullmetal Alchemist (2003)
03 was my introduction to fma back in 2014 and I fell in love fast and hard. It instantly became my favorite anime and remains it to this day. I really hadn't watched many good anime prior to it though, I was watching a lot of whatever I happened across. But still it's remained incredibly special to me and I'm really glad it ended up being one of the anime I happened to come across then.
