Summary: Edward Elric from various points of view.
Chapter 10: Harry Potter
I believe Mr. Elric just caught his first glimpse of quidditch.
I was plummeting toward the snitch in the spiral pattern Charlie taught me and vaguely felt my feet hit the ground. When I came back from the adrenaline rush, the snitch was in my fist and Mr. Elric's face was just a few centimeters from being struck. Now that he's standing in front of me, he's actually a bit... shorter than I expected.
The crowd went wild. Whether it was for the sudden appearance of the hermit librarian or whether it was for the fact that Slytherin was officially out of the running for the Quidditch cup, I wasn't sure. Anyhow, even as the team carried me away, I was pretty sure that that was the first time Mr. Elric has ever seen anyone on broomsticks, much less an entire quidditch match. He looked exactly like how I felt when Ron first described flying to me.
For the most part, I've kept my mouth shut about him. I haven't been to the library since Madam Pince had her nervous breakdown so everything I've heard of him either came from Hermione, Ron, Ginny, or his underground fanclub (There was a notice written in InvisInk on the wall of the third floor's boy's room).
Originally, all I had to say was that I agreed with Ron when he said Mr. Elric looked like a woman. I still remember that afternoon he rushed in, face aflame, buried his face in his pillow and talked in muffled tones until lack of oxygen caused him to keel over.
But now?
If what Hermione says is true, why haven't we seen this power? And if she's incorrect, then what exactly is he? If he's so disconnected from the wizarding world not to know what quidditch was, then he couldn't possibly have been connected in the first place. That leads to other questions. Where did he learn alchemy, assuming he knew alchemy? How does Dumbledore know him? How did he get the job?
I must go visit the library personally soon.
