Yep, yep, you did a great job on this fic! I read it earlier and didn't comment, sorry! Ed's reason for staying was comedic genious. Had a light hearted but real feel to it.

[artemisrae]

Thank you! I actualy prefer writing the light hearted stuff, so I'm glad you guys like it!

[dreamer1789]

XD XD Thank you for writing! That was priceless.

“You and Ed deserve each other, you know that?”
Loved the way threats of Winry and Izumi fail, yet Roy works instantly. ^^

It was only the assurance that Ed would not bolt in front of an audience - an audience that included Mustang, and Izumi Curtis, and several of the Rockbell’s larger, burlier customers - that let Al leave Ed behind confidently. That sounds so Ed.

This piece of love is quite packed with action. ♥

[artemisrae]

Thank you! Truly though, Mustang would have been merciless if Ed had ditched. I don't know that I could have done that to him - although I HAVE tortured him in a lot of other ways...

[dreamer1789]

I'm quite convinced you would have managed. ^^

So, what kind of stunts will be pulled when Al gets married? ;)

[artemisrae]

So, what kind of stunts will be pulled when Al gets married? ;)

Well that depends. I'm not sure if Ed is the type to create trouble or just sit sulking in the corner...

[evil_little_dog]

bwahahahahaah. This is so what I needed after feeling yucky all night. Thanks.

That both of them were trying to escape makes it all the better. Heeee.

[artemisrae]

See? Artemis Rae, here to serve!

And it's not that they didn't want to get married! It was the people, who were watching! All those people! Normal stage fright!

[evil_little_dog]

It was the people, who were watching! All those people! Normal stage fright!

Riiiiiiight. Somehow, I don't buy that of Ed, Mr. Show Off himself....

[artemisrae]

Maybe he was just terrified of the idea of Roy and Izumi running into each other?

[monique_27]

*LOL* OMG that's awesome! *snickerfit*

So much love for this fic. <3 The characterizations are perfect, I love Al's persuasion, Ed's buttons, and omg Riza and Winry! *lol* Thanks so much for sharing. *^.^*

[artemisrae]

Ahh thank you - I always struggle with characterization, so I'm happy you approve.

[zuppi]

Excellent! XD

Absolutely excellent. Al is right, they certainly deserve each other! I've read quite a few fics were Ed gets cold feet but this is the first one I've seen where Winry is always trying to escape! It's a great twist.

The image of Riza trying to drag Winry back in through the window has me in stitches! XD

[artemisrae]

I've read a lot of fics where Ed gets cold feet as well, which is perfectly natural, but Winry and Ed have very similar personalities. I could totally see her getting cold feet, no matter how excited she is to get married.

Thank god for Al and Riza, honestly. I don't know where Ed and Winry would be without them.

[zuppi]

That's true.

God, they're both so dense. It's what I love about them as a couple, but you're right, they definitely need Al and Riza to keep them in line!
