** Beautifully haunting. Lovely job.

Bleak indeed, and I am glad it stands alone despite its lack of completion, which is too appropriate.

Too bad there isn't a sequel. I love it, you've got the characters spot-on and I love how you present the story.

Only bad thing- it won't be continued.

Really sad... I can't believe all the things that happened to them...

Well, I just started reading the manga (I saw the anime) so I was a little confused. But you wrote it so well that I sort of understood it.

Col... I like this one. Post-war and warfics are my favorite genre for FMA. (which is why I started writing one!) It's a plot that's just waiting to happen in the manga.. I can't wait! Ed is so good natured, it's going to kill a part of him to become a killer. I like the idea of Winry setting up a resistance movement. She's just strong enough to do something like that. I can't see her sitting on her butt while there's a war ripping the nation apart.

And no matter how good Mustang's intentions are... if he starts a civil war, that blood is going to be on his hands. It's fitting that you killed him for his ideals. He'd certainly be willing to pay that final price.

Nice work! It was dark in the right places and light there in the end. Nice to end on a bright spot. I've gotta check out more of your fics. ;)

Oh wow, very intense! I love this! I was excited when I saw the End? ... but I did expect that was probably a dramatic effect for hope in the future. This story really did twist my stomach a few ways... you describe scenes so wonderfully (or horrifically, LOL). Can't wait for more Ed/Win stories! XD

wow...that's all i can really say. This is such a sad story, and about war is very true. This is something i never have thought of, and it's really good

wow i wanted to cry but it was to sacred for that.i can understand why you don't want to 's a dead story but it still took my breath you for writing have my fan fic love and support.

Oh, just lovely. The images are quite evocative and as a one shot, it's a great piece. I don't think you need to continue it at all.

. Darn, I was going to ask for one...ah well, great job on this!

It was really angsty, but not to the point where you want to cry. I feel really bad for Ed and Win...but I know they'll get better.

So once again, great job on this!

thta was awsom i loved it! )

I am speechless.

Honestly, this is beyond words. It is perfect. It is heartbreaking and beautiful.

Wow... another great piece. I really love your style of writing to future events-such as how to really get through a war and the hardships of what might happen. It's a great line to write on and i'm sure i'm not the only one waiting to see what new war story you have next.

Wow! That was great, I love your use of descriptions. I also love the ending, hope-filled and promising a bright new day. (Now I sound like a fortune cookie)Although, did the civil war and the Rush Valley Resistence really happen in the manga or is that from your own imgination? It's a really cool idea though and I enjoyed this piece a lot! Keep up the great work, please!

Wow, how terribly gruesome, yet beautiful at the same time. How sad:(
