Currently just thinking about the FMA pirate au that I’ll probably never write. I’ll draw Al eventually once I work out his design. Maybe I’ll make this digital at some point and colour it too. If anyone’s interested, @elwayken and I have pretty much the whole au worked out.
Here is the consensus of the Chimera! Ed AU;
Be warned there's spoilers I'm pretty sure.
This AU starts out just like the Canon sources: Ed and Al doing human transmutation, it leading to Ed loosing his leg and only moments later his arm due to bonding Al's soul to a suit of armor as Al lost his physical form to the gate, Mustang and Hawkeye coming to Resembool looking for two adult Alchemists only to find out their sources were wrong and learned of the human transmutation as well as the fact that Ed and Al are like 11-10, Ed getting the automail surgery and then a year later getting into the military, Barry the chopper shit; Y'know, everything up to where FMA 03 diverges itself from Brotherhood and manga. At that point the Chimera! Ed AU diverges as well.
(*Giovi note: As much as I'd like to mix elements of FMA 03 and FMAB for this AU, this AU will follow FMAB more as honestly I remember more from Brotherhood; I need to rewatch both 03 and Brotherhood if I'll be honest, but yeah.)
The trip to Lab 5 doesn't go as planned. Ed and Al go, fight both the newly soul possessing armor Barry the chopper as well as the slicer brothers, the homunculi show up and incompacitate Ed. Blah, blah, blah. But, instead of giving Ed to Al; They put him in the hands of some of the scientists who were working on Chimera research and creation in the 5th lab (They most likely moved to a different location to continue their work after it was destroyed by Envy, and Lust.) as to monitor their sacrifice more closely. In turn keeping him from getting killed if he went on more missions as well as just to 'have fun' with him, in a sense.
This would lead to the eventual transmutation experiments that lead to Ed becoming a Chimera.
(*Giovi note: I know most people probably think of cats or dogs in terms of animals to use for chimeras, when I was first thinking of this AU I actually went over other people's works on AO3 of their Chimera Ed's as to see how most would view him behavior wise as well as which animal to pair him with. I saw a few of Ed with dog/wolf, at least one of him transmuted as a cat Chimera; So my assumption that people typically chose such was correct. However, I personally am straying away from that thought. For starters, I don't think they'd believe it to be a good idea that the Fullmetal Alchemist, known for his temper and being a protector, to have a predatory animal mixed into his mindset and body. If anything, that could make him more dangerous to the people working on him, or even the homunculi themselves. Therefore I believe they'd mix him with a prey-animal. As means to both humiliate him, reducing him to a panicked, skittish mindset as well as smaller attributes to be taken even less seriously if he were to go out into public again. This is why I chose an armadillo for Ed, a prey-animal known to curl up and hide when in distress and act rather docile in most situations unless cornered as well as to eat bugs. An animal seen as diseased by most. Honestly, I do think the armidillo is very fitting of Ed. But I digress.)
So, yeah, he goes through various experiments; Having his automail crudely removed as to keep him from preforming Alchemy as well as to keep him from hurting the scientists too badly. When the homunculi aren't constantly hovering over the experiments, possibly going to check over Alphonse to make sure he's still kicking in his rust bucket, Ed is able to make his escape. He had tried to escape a few times in the past, but without his automail, that'd probably make it a lot harder. So he'd try escaping, hiding out within the vents and such of the lab or building they chose to turn into a lab as he finds his automail; Promptly attaching the leg automail limb to his body, of course after getting some basic tools as he wandered the vents into different rooms. It is already painful to have someone else attach automail, let alone reattach, now it is probably a lot worse when its done all by himself; Him being an amateur at best, with only one usable arm and lack of energy from however long he had been hiding in the vents before finding and therefore reattached his limbs. He most likely vomited from the pain alone, shockingly not passing out (But it's Ed, with his determined ass he probably would keep himself from passing out for as long as he could; Especially with such an adrenaline high he probably got on from the pain.)
He most likely reattached the limb wrong, probably not connecting a good few of his nerves; But enough to still allow some movement, to help him escape faster. But not enough to help him out if he were to get into a fight, probably shorting out. His arm was practically useless, having frozen up back initially in the 5th lab when Envy approached him, so he never attached the limb. He just tied it to his back; With a cloth of some sort, taking some hanging up scientists coats and putting them on as well.
When he did make his escape, he was nearly found out, having ran through a corridor he had watched scientists leave through even through days of the initial transmutation and the experiments that shortly followed that. If it weren't for Havoc conveniently searching the area for a different threat (Scar probably, he had split up from Mustang to search. But they also had been searching for Ed after he went missing, it being much harder to do with how tight lipped Al, Ross, and Brosh were being about the whole situation. They still had their jobs to do though); Ed probably wouldn't of escaped successfully.
The only issue was, Havoc's first instinct when seeing Ed was to point a gun at him; At first unknowing that it was indeed Ed.
Ed's appearance had greatly changed after the experiments occurred. These experiments being much lower budget, most likely kept from Bradley himself given Ed was "called dibs on" by him, and probably were to conclude whether or not Chimeras could be made using cheaper methods. (So unlike the Devil's Nest gang) Ed now looked more animalistic and smaller, his back unnaturally curved like a macaroni noodle, his face furry and almost shrew like with little whiskers and a snout, his eyes cataracted and white like Nina's had been when she was transmuted with Alexander, his right arm now only containing three fingers with long claws at the end of them. Rounded ears on top of his head. Yet he still had his long, golden hair with golden bangs. Still had that, although much dimmed out, fire in his eyes that inexplicably made everyone know who he was. And his voice. His voice sounded just like his own, yet with a bit more squeakiness to it. In the back of his throat, he seemed to emit a squeaking, almost beeping sound. Especially as he looked over Havoc when he was found.
So yeah, that's basically sumerizes the context you'll need of the AU once I start drawing out it's comic. It may take me a bit to draw the comic out, however, please be patient with me. All posts with the tag "#Chimera ed au" , "#Chimera ed" all pertain to this AU. That is going to be how ill organize the posts for now.
Anyway, if you have any questions, wanna give suggestions for the AU, or even just wanna tell me to stfu about the AUs; Use the ask box on my acc or just comment. I'll answer whatever I can. :)
Reblogging this bc I thought of a silly question for y'all.
By answering 'yes', that means you guys can interact with the comic through my ask box or by commenting; By answering 'no', you don't want that and you'd prefer the story to be non-interactive.
I just want opinions from you all, especially given this AU was the most requested in my earlier poll.

Edward's Mercy
Ed:) I drew this for my buddy!
Conqueror of Shamballa doodles but with no color because I'm lazy.
I'm still fucking sobbing over Wrath. My son. My lil skrunkly man. EUGHWAH.
Also I hc that when Ed is in his later teens he has a bunch of acne scars/acne; So very silly.
I promise to draw more soon:(
Colored one of the COS doodles to use as a pfp
Yeah give Ed a lil snake!!! (might not be what I said but he deserves a lil friend)
I'm glad you like the eyes, I've never been good with eyelashes but they're a reoccurring theme I see in your art so I thought I'd do him justice by giving him eyelashes.
Also no problem! I'm happy you like it!:)
Did a lil lineart sketch of your lmk au Ed; Thought it'd be silly to add a lil python too
But here you go :)
HEJHVBWGNW I JUST GOT THIS NOTIFICATION HOLD ON. OH MY GOOOOOOOOOOOD
MY BOY!!! IT'S MY BOY!!! The eyes turned out SO COOL and the snake!! You're absolutely right Ed should have a pet snake in this au (that's not what you said but it's canon now, thanks). God this is so. SO SD,VJNWJVN W. I LOVE IT DUDE THANK YOU

@orange-t-apple
Hiii I did the thing as so as I woke up lmao
I did lil notes and stuff.
Idk what else to say that I haven't already said and/or depicted and written here.
/This is fmab only, not for 03 even though I used 03 ref stuff./
this headline is sending me into the stratosphere
Do you guys ever think about the fact Ed kinda just let Wrath choke him? He didn't stop him, sure he put his hand on his forearm but that wasn't stopping him.
He could've tried transmuting his automail, transmuting the carbon that makes up Wraths body. He could've very much tried hurting him or tried killing him.
But he didn't.
I think it's because Ed was thinking he deserved it. Mostly because of his words to Izumi after Wrath ran off:
"He was.. Crying. While I can't even squeeze out a single tear, that poor kid's crying like a baby. Like he, like he was crying because I couldn't."
I think Wrath and Ed are one in the same, Wrath is like Ed's intrusiveness and emotionalness but at a higher level. More extreme in a sense. But they're so alike I love them.
Idk how to explain it, I'll explain more later maybe.
