"Alchemy~ The science of understanding

Deconstructing and reconstructing matter

It is impossible to create something out of nothing

If one wishes to obtain something, something of equal value must be given

This is the law of equivalent exchange

The basis of all alchemy"

I've ran those words through my head over and over again...

The Law of Equivalence...

I've based my entire existence around that principle, that's right, not just my alchemy, but every fiber of my being.

~...~

"The Science of Understanding"

I don't understand how I feel.

~...~

"Deconstructing and Reconstructing Matter"

I cannot deconstruct this twisting inside myself, this deep rhythmic tremble that I feel when I see him...nor can I reconstruct it into something I can comprehend.

~...~

"It is impossible to create something out of nothing"

Then where does this feeling come from, I can't explain where I got it...It's just...there.

~...~

"If one wishes to obtain something, something of equal value must be given."

So...If I gave my heart, my soul, my entire self to him that would absolutely guarantee he'd do the same?

~...~

"This is the law of equivalent exchange"

Really?

~...~

"The basis of all Alchemy"

And the basis of my entire life, up until now.

~...~

I can honestly say that if the law of equivalent exchange is an all powerful law, that governs all.

He defies any and all types of equivalence.

(A/N...This is just something that I randomly decided to write after watching the intro to Brotherhood...I might end up writing a story around it...maybe..oh and this is Ed's POV...)
