Heyo! I don't normally post here, but I look in every once in a while 'cause a lot of the art is pretty. C: Just wanted to add one quick thing about the whole Ed/Roy age difference. Aside from the power thing mentioned by Crow, if it was a 30 year old guy and a 16 year old girl, people would mostly likely still feel weird about it (at least, I would.) Yeah, that's all I wanted to say! Oh, and that last picture ^ is awesome.

YAY <333 HALLO.
FFfs I hate those dipshits. Making my fandom un-fun and stressful ffss.
HOLY SHIIIIT that...that's just awful. If I ever become a successful author and acquire a fandom I'd probably scream at them to STFU because it's just a fucking pairing D: And then just to be mean canonize a slash pairing |D Okay, not really, it'd only happen if the pairing was already planned and all that. And then I'd go and ship slash pairings and crack pairings along with the rest of my awesome, chill fans~ Honestly in a fandom there can't be much worse than the creators openly encouraging these extreme "true" fans. It's just..."Jesus dude you're kind of a dick, aren't you?" White...white slavery what what what is this I don't even *brainbroken*
I guess this means I should be far more outspoken and ranty towards these assholes. Shame the one that has me real riled up baaawlocked me. YOUR WORDS HAVE ENCOURAGED ME TO WHINE MOAR.
Now if you'll excuse me I have about ten sketches to color.
EDIT: ^ Yeah, it is xD The artist has some very pretty artwork.

bespecledcow: We do have a lot of awesome artists here on the Dark Side >:3 Like, pretty much anything by IDEA is to die for. An example: Greedling! :LD. And here have another. What the hell, here's the whole online gallery. There are doujinshi of theirs that I would give a kidney to own. I own scanlations, but they're not the same as hard copies...hnnnng Traumerei, Oasis, Metamorphose Planetarium, Graceful Degradation grrrrx so much love, pretty pretty love *A* Their work with positive and negative space just makes my head spin, it's so good. About the Ed-chick-and-Roy thing? That'd kind've squick me, but it's rarely a deterrent in fandom XD; You'll even see fans who are squeamish around slash genderswitch Ed so they don't have to feel "guilty" about writing RoyEd. Young girl/Old guy isn't uncommon. And it's a lot less creepy when the people writing it ARE sixteen-year-old girls or hell, women in general. Fanfic-fandom is largely a female space, and younger girls lusting after older men is a common phenomenon (girls digging on actors old enough to be their grandparents, etc.) It's creepier, to me, when it's the older guy writing about old guys seducing younger girls, because that's a REAL real-world issue with Unfortunate Implications. ETA: DOUJINSHI SPAM FOR PRETTY ARTS Traumerei by IDEA. Friggin' gorgeous. 80 pages, no real pairs, super depressing/bittersweet. Mindfuck! This is one of my favorites ever, go download it RITE NAO! Samples: 1 2Kanohi (Nokto de la Galaksia Feruojo) by GD-MECHANO. (Links are being fucky and leading to another page, so here's the URL: sharontssailormoon.homestead.com/scgdmechano.html try copy-pasting it into the address bar if it doesn't work.) It's the second download on the page. Anime continuity, but with some manga elements. ~84 pages. Art is to die for, plot is also mindfuck depressing. Took me a few read-throughs to fully get the story (with some help from the notes in the back, on the book this is partially based off of.) I WILL BABBLE ABOUT IT TO YOU IF YOU DON'T GET IT XDDDD There's a RoyEd scene, but it's not explicit, and it's more depressing than romantic. It's supposedly NC-17, but there are notes on one of the last pages saying it's "Lite" so I'm guessing this is the version without the explicit scene. This was published a few months after the end of the first anime. Samples: 1 2

YOU GUYS KNOW WHAT IS AWESOME? GENDERSWITCH. GENDERSWITCH IS AWESOME. DO YOU KNOW WHAT IS EVEN MORE AWESOME? GENDERSWITCH INTO LESBIANS. LESBIANS MAKE EVERYTHING BETTER. do want And for the record, let me say that Girl!Ling would be adorable and much like Ty Lee from AtLA and of course the FMA fandom would hate her >_> I hate fandom double standards; male characters get away with way the hell more shit without fans hating them...Think Harry Potter. If Harry were Harriet, how many pages in do you think fandom would start screeching "SUE!" -grumblegrumble- And Girl!Greed would be that one badass lesbian biker chick with a smokin' leather jacket who I would crush on hopelessly but never actually talk to because I'd be way too intimidated. SHE'S TOO COOL FOR ME (not super worksafe, but not exactly unsafe either, depends on where you work...crap, havin' trouble categorizing this one. But you know what else is not safe for work? NOT WORKING >:B) DO WANT

^ CROW YOU FIND THE BEST CRACK. Ohgod Girl!Ling is fucking adorable akjdlkjdlkmkjfgjkfn (incoherent rambling goes here). THAT...THAT EXPRESSION. IT JUST FITS SO WELL. hdsjkhks.
Girl!Greed! I love Girl!Greed! You're not alone Crow. That would totally be me too. Shy and meek and crushing so hard but never actually doing anything about it :0
HAHAHAH OH CRAP THAT SECOND ONE IS HILARIOUS. FFFS.I laughed; loudly. Thank you for cheering me up Crow, I need that~

Genderbender FMA? Okay that settles it, I'm bisexual. Even if it is only for fictional characters... damn you Aqua, Xion, Kairi and Namine for being absolutely ADORABLE...

Oh hot damn. Sign me up for lesbian!GreedLing. Hell, I'll crush on 'em both, although I'd never be able to talk to Greed with dissolving into giggles and blushing even though generally I go for the shy ukes who need protecting and spoiling.
And fem!Greed would invite fem!Ling to ride around with her on her motorcycle and fem!Ling would squeal and glomp her and it would be cute and fuck, now I want to write fic for that what is wrong with me.
