Rating: teen
Warnings: none really
Prompt: I'm interested in a story that tells how Pinako and Hohenheim first met and whatever amount of their early interactions that you'd like to include (include Hohenheim/Pinako or just friendship as you see fit). Any Additional Prompts: Some Al/Paninya romance, if you please! After Alphonse gets his body back and the ladies are taking a shine to the handsome gentleman.

Title -- When Sorrows Comes
Author-- cornerofmadness
Disclaimer -- Arakawa owns all, I’m just having lots of fun.
Rating -- R for violence and sexual situations
Characters/Pairing -- Roy/Riza, Ed/Winry, Maes/Gracia, Alex Louis/OC, lots of Ishbalan OC’s
Timeline/Spoilers -- Technically it’s a few years post CoS with manga elements
Word Count -- 34,777
genre mystery/suspense
Warning -- violence and descriptions of murder.
Summary -- As Ed, Al and Alt!Maes settle into life in Amestris, they have to help Roy in his role as ambassador whose main duties are to speed along the Ishbalan homeland restoration. In the middle of this, a series killer seems desperate to get Mustang’s attention while Riza is no longer always at his side, guarding, instead, the new Fuhrer.
Author’s Note -- Written for fmabigbang 2011 edition. Thanks to evil_little_dog for the beta. Thanks to both yuukihikari and soraina_skye for the art! Thanks, also, to my flist for all the cheering on! While technically this is part of a series that includes Source of Sorrow and Sorrow’s Dark Array this is a stand alone story. As mentioned above, this is a hybrid first anime/manga story. All the events of the first anime stand and the additions are Xing as a country and Olivia Armstrong as Fuhrer. As Roy is working with the Ishbalans and about the only named one in the first anime was Scar, the ones here are OC’s (seen also in the two other stories).

When sorrows come, they come not single spies, but in battalions!” – William Shakespeare
