Thanks! No matter which 'verse, I always felt Winry was the strongest character created. She definitely deserved better from CoS, though I felt that way pretty much post-episode 40 from the 2003 anime.

Soooo. I figure she deserved some sort of happiness.

CoS Winry would've mourn the loss. She would've move on. She would've done everything in her power to be happy. You've captured this beautifully. You're one of the fan fiction writers I most look up to. I hope to see more of your writing in FF or AO3.

[evil_little_dog]

I hope to continue writing for FMA (at least a little! I really want to try getting some of my own stuff out there). And thank you for your very kind words.

[le_confidant]

Of course! Life moves on. :)

I sure would live to read your original stories. I bet they're be as amazing as what I read from you for the fandom.

[evil_little_dog]

I would certainly hope so. :D

I always felt so bad for Winry in CoS. I'm glad you had her move on, nice closure!

[evil_little_dog]

She deserved a lot better. I'm glad you like that I gave her a more hopeful ending.

Awww...Poor Winry. But the ending was so hopeful. Great work.

[evil_little_dog]

Thank you!

Well this is just too sad. But Winry is strong and she will go on.

[evil_little_dog]

I wanted to do something a little more upbeat/different but it didn't work out that way.

[cornerofmadness]

I don't think any of us really managed upbeat that well

[evil_little_dog]

It is a bit difficult.
