Love the flashback moment with Hughes at the beginning.
Jean and Becky's wedding was so very adorably them and I loved every moment of it. It was good to see everyone having fun before all hell breaks loose.
This is such a political mess, I love it! *laughs* Angry!Al was great, I almost wish we could have seen more of that. And I laughed hard at Havoc's hoping he's not the one left in charge, even though it was a tense serious moment. (I love Havoc. You write him so well. <3)
Ed and Roy made me sad--I kinda had a feeling this was coming, but I'm glad Ed was persistent Roy's agreed to give it a try afterward. Also loved the bit about Hohenheim and Ed admitting that he does miss him. <3
I have so much love for this series. Glad to hear there'll be more soon! :D
(Also, kitteh music is the best kind! <3)

Angry Al is fun to write because it doesn't happen so often. And Roy needs people to challenge him sometimes. In a weird way, the added pressure of everything being about to explode is probably helpful for making people focus on the important stuff. XD
(They are noisy kittehs so it's a good job I like it <3)

Ed is the voice of reason a lot in this fic, if it's not what to name the cat. XD Yes, Roy's attitude sort of doesn't serve any practical good. I imagined he had a sort of unexamined mental block about serious relationships for the reasons mentioned, and was somewhat shocked to find out that he was accidentally in one, and with someone who saw through him at that (despite being a ridiculous amount younger than him). Poor Roy's dignity.
