I just want to say congrats for posting!! I know full well how taxing these things can be, so I'm happy for you that you managed to finish and posting yours. c: I'll read this once I have the time.

Haha, thanks. Indeed Big Bangs are quite tiring (am working on another Big Bang for a different fandom though this time I'm writing a short story based on an art XD). I'm actually jealous you're able to do several at once. I can't do that. XD I actually still need to post the second half of the story, but I'm waiting for my beta(s) to look over a couple more chapters first. :x

Looking forward to your thoughts on my story when you get the chance! It'll still be here unless LJ and DW blows up or something. XD

Yeah, they're really exhausting to write out although at the same time, its really worth it when you post them in the end... sob, I actually have two more to post still. One later once I get the art links, and another on Thursday (and that one is 100k long, cry).

I'll be sure to tell you what I think - I like the sound of the premise already, so you can bet I'll read it the moment I have the chance. :D

I really like the beginning, especially the acknowledgement that it will not be easy to forge peace with their former enemies

Glad to hear you like the beginning! I actually already hinted that in my Big Bang last year but yeah the way I see it peace with the other countries will take some time. Amestris, forging enemies since its creation, LOL.

this is very true

wow this is nicely set up! Can't wait to see where it goes!

I'm sorry it's taken me so long to get through this - I started it, liked what I read, and then had to shut down the computer and couldn't come back. But now I've completed this first chapter and I am very intrigued! I love how seamlessly you're weaving together the rebuild of Ishval with the attempt to fix relations with Aerugo, and including the details from the video game.

And of course, I'm loving the Royai. But that's obvious.

Long story short, this is very very good and I'm really enjoying it!

Don't worry about it. Like I said at Tumblr a lot has been going for you. *hugs* Thanks! I originally had the idea of Amestris fixing relations with Aerugo back with my other Big Bang Down the Road (which you can go back to now if you so desire :P ). After I finish with that story though I was playing around the idea of expanding that along with Roy and Riza dealing with Ishval in another story and thus this first chapter.

Hehe, glad you love the Royai! :D
