summary. Fifty sentences of Ed/Winry love. No blonde alchemists were beaten with wrenches in the making of this piece.

|01| Walking
She loved watching him walk up to her house and hated watching him leave, but she always took a certain amount of pride that, without her, he may not have been able to walk at all.

|02| Waltz
She made a mental note to herself to make his leg lighter so that, maybe next time, it wouldn’t hurt so much when he trod on her feet.

|03| Wishes
As she blew the candles out and made a wish, her heart ached knowing that her wish probably wasn’t going to come true - he wasn’t going to walk through that door anytime soon.

|04| Wonder
Winry smiled at Ed’s look of wonder as their newborn baby grasped his finger with her tiny hand.

|05| Worry
As she watched them both leave, she realised that she didn’t hate the fact that they had to leave the most, she hated the fact that all she could do was worry about them.

|06| Whimsy
Ed knew that, when he got a little crazy and whimsical, she knew that he was more upset and confused than he let on.

|07| Waste/Wasteland
“Fullmetal, I think that young mechanic is wasted on you - such a pretty girl…” Ed had to restrain himself from punching the Colonel; after all, it was against the rules to assault a superior officer.

|08| Whiskey and Rum
Ed glared at the glass in his hand, wondering if the bitter taste of alcohol would wash away the image of her lying in the hospital bed.

|09| War
Winry hated war more than she could ever vocalise, for taking away her parents and maybe one day, for taking Ed away too.

|10| Weddings
Even though she had turned both Elric brothers down, she secretly admitted to herself that maybe, just maybe, she had pictured herself marrying Ed more than once.

|11| Birthday
“Oi, happy birthday for before, okay?” he muttered harshly, purposefully avoiding her eyes, blush darkening his cheeks as he handed her a brand new toolbox.

|12| Blessing
“Hey, Winry, I gave nii-san my blessing already, so he’d better ask you out soon!” Al laughed quietly when he saw Winry and Ed blush furiously at the statement.

|13| Bias
When she heard some of the military women debate who was better out of Roy and Ed, she gave her own honest opinion, knowing full well that she was as biased as a woman could be.

|14| Burning
Ed wondered absently which was hotter, Mustang’s flames or the blush on his face as Winry quickly pecked him on the cheek.

|15| Breathing
As he lay besides her, Winry took in everything, the way the moonlight shone on his face, the softness of his golden strands, of the evenness of his breathing, eventually lulling her to sleep with its gentle rhythm.

|16| Breaking
“I can’t do this anymore, just stand here and watch you leave and come back all torn up!” he realised then and there that she had reached breaking point as she sobbed into his chest.

|17| Belief
“Of course I believe he’ll come back, he always does.” she whispered to her grandmother as the brothers walked away.

|18| Balloon
She had to giggle appreciatively as Ed made a balloon animal to entertain Elysia, but she screamed, first in shock then in anger, when it popped and Elysia began to cry.

|19| Balcony
When she had time to spare, she liked to sit on the balcony, looking out for a suit of armour followed by a little blonde bean, even though, one day, she’d like to see two grown blonde men walking up the path.

|20| Bane
Even though he was the bane of his existence, Ed had to silently thank Mustang for giving him a day off to go visit Winry.

|21| Quiet
Though she wouldn’t admit it, she loved hearing Ed snore through the quiet of the night, simply because it proved he was alive and he was well and he was there.

|22| Quirks
Even though he was away more often than not, she never forgot anything about him: his smile, his laugh, and his odd habit of sleeping with his stomach bared.

|23| Question
Winry felt her breath catch in her throat when Ed asked if he could ask her a question, then let out a sigh of frustration when he asked, “Do you think I could beat Colonel Bastard with this new arm?”

|24| Quarrel
“Winry, I’m sorry, I didn’t mean what I said…” he muttered through the door, and his heart stopped when he heard muffled sobs from the girl inside.

|25| Quitting
Ed knew he could never give up on the quest to return them to their original bodies-he owed it to Al to give him the life he deserved, and he owed it to Winry to be the man she deserved.

|26| Jump
“Geez, Ed, you’re only taller than me if you jump!” Winry teased as she ran away from Ed and his exaggerated cries, “Who are you calling a tiny shrimp who’s so small he gets stuck between your teeth without chewing?!”

|27| Jester
Sometimes he really hated the way the Colonel would tease him about his relationship with Winry because, to him at least, it would never be anything to joke about.

|28| Jousting
As much as she hated it, he loved transmuting his arm into the blade; he figured it was because he loved feeling like he was jousting as in days gone by, fighting to protect her.

|29| Jewel
Winry always seemed more interested in tools than in shiny stones and jewellery, but when she glanced longingly in the jewellery store window, Ed took the hint.

|30| Just
“I like you Ed, even though you’re short and loud and arrogant, I like you… I love you just the way you are.”

|31| Smirk
When the Colonel would make the occasional jibe about his ‘inexperience’, Ed would smirk to himself, ‘If only Colonel Bastard knew!’

|32| Sorrow
Winry can’t help feeling sorrowful every time they left, wondering if she’ll ever see them again.

|33| Stupidity
“I’ve been really stupid you know, Winry, for not realising I loved you a long time ago.”

|34| Serenade
As Winry awoke to the dulcet tones of her husband’s voice, softly singing her awake with her favourite song, she realised that nothing could’ve been sweeter, especially for a man who hated singing.

|35| Sarcasm
She knew Ed was sarcastic more often than not, but she was pleased to note that, whenever he told her that he loved her, there was no sarcasm in his voice.

|36| Sordid
Ed knew to be wary when Roy sidled up to him but was shocked nonetheless when he whispered, “So, Fullmetal, what’s this I hear about a sordid night with your mechanic?”

|37| Soliloquy
“Winry… I-I love you!” he practiced the speech to himself so many times but, whenever he saw her, he found he was lost for words.

|38| Sojourn
Even though her stay in Central was short, she loved the chance to spend more time with him and Al.

|39| Share
They had shared her equally as their closest friend since they were young, but Al was completely fine with Ed dominating her attention as they grew up.

|40| Solitary
Winry walked up the path but, when she noticed the solitary figure in front of the gravestone, she silently turned and walked back.

|41| Nowhere
As restless as he felt sometimes to leave, to get out and move, he was always content to go nowhere just to stay with her.

|42| Neutral
As an alchemist, Ed liked to think of himself as logical and reasonable, but there was no way he could stay neutral when she was involved.

|43| Nuance
Al knew how they felt about each other long before they did: it was always the little things, the subtle nuances in their behaviour, their looks and words that gave away their less-than-platonic feelings.

|44| Near
Even though he was in the next room, he felt so far away; she knew he would remain distant until he achieved his goal.

|45| Natural
Although they had both stressed over it, the first time they kissed, it felt like the most natural thing in the world.

|46| Horizon
There were some days when she would just watch the horizon for their figures, lamp always ready to light them home.

|47| Valiant
He didn’t enjoy getting beaten up, having his body battered an bruised, but he never has to remind himself that he has to fight valiantly for the chance of a happy future with her and Al.

|48| Virtuous
Roy chuckled to himself when Ed sometimes missed his double entendres; obviously he and his mechanic were still virtuous.

|49| Victory
He knows there’s no way he can lose-he has to fight for Amestris, for Al, for her.

|50| Defeat
He could feel the pain in his side, could feel himself slowly losing consciousness and all he could think was, damn it, Al, Winry, I want to see you again!
