In the world, there are only two Elrics, and they are all that will ever be, never not-Elrics and never more Elrics, just the two of them, just the one of them, and even when they're apart, it only makes them strain harder towards one another. They are Elric, they are themselves, and that is all that they will ever be.
And it's not that they don't have a family outside of each other, and it's not that they aren't loved as dearly as any children-not-children could ever be. There's no real reason or rhyme to it, and the girl who would be theirs just breathes in and accepts it because they're still hers, even if they never will be.
Winry means steel and strength and a smile and soft bittersweetness, and they love her, deep and dearly and true and completely, and so they push her away, soft-soft-shush-no, and when they leave again, they know she's crying, but because she is loved, she must be kept safe, and though she's strong like blinding sunlight they're terrified of dragging her down with them
