Oh...oh..oh Edward!!! *bursts into tears*

You did a fabulous job with this. Thanks for sharing this with everyone.

Now, I need to go find a kleenex. *wibble*

Thank you so much! It's great to know it touched you so (but I'm sorry it made you cry).

I don't know why I've been in the mood for angsty Elric family stuff lately, but I have.

Thanks very much! I'm glad you enjoyed.

You're welcome!

Angsty isn't bad. Just sayin'.

Super late comment here, but this was such a sweet and sad story. I'm a sucker for little Ed and Al, and I think you did a really great job showing their childhood and how grown-up Ed was even then. The scene with Hoho was cute, too, since you never get to see Ed being close with his dad in the series, but there had to have been a time when he wanted his affection.

Rambly, inarticulate comment aside, I really enjoy your fic! I hope you don't mind me adding you?

Thanks very much! I'm also rather fond of baby Elrics (as you could no doubt tell!), so I'm glad you thought I wrote them well. And no worries about the lateness; I've half a dozen or more tabs open right now with things I owe comments on, so I completely understand. ^_^

And of course you can add me! I'll friend you back - though I'll warn you ahead of time about my general boring-ness. ;)

Yay! I doubt you'll bore me, and besides, we have a few fandoms in common, so that automatically makes you pretty cool...

Wow, that was so spot on. Also loved how you built everything up on both Trisha & Hoho's lessons. Brilliant! And rather sad with some fun added in too. (lil Ed's idea of an adult = ♥)

Thanks very much! It's funny how a bit of stream-of-consciousness writing can eventually coalesce into a story. :) (And you know baby!Ed's goal in life was to be tall as his daddy. ;)
