Edward

Whoever invented stew was a genius. I mean, it's got milk in it, but it still tastes good.

Edward

Teacher, I......we......(flash back to Trisha's death)......we transmuted.....transmuted our mother!

(Izumi kicks him so hard he flies into a tree)

Edward [Voice over]: We talked about what would happen if we died here, remember?

Alphonse [Voice over]: Yeah, a lot of people would be sad…

Edward [Voice over]: That’s a subjective opinion, but look at it objectively, if I died the world would continue to move along as if nothing had happened…

Alphonse [Voice over]: Because you’re just a small part of it- OW!

Edward [Voice over]: Don’t call me small! Now when the small part, in this case me, dies, the body remains.

Alphonse [Voice over]: Water, carbon, ammonia, lime, phosphorus, salt, saltpeter, sulfur, magnesium, fluorine, iron, and aluminum, right?

Edward [Voice over]: Right. The body is only a combination of those simple elements, nothing more. We’re destined to be decomposed by bacteria and become nutrients for plants, and if you follow the process further, those plants nourish herbivores.

Alphonse [Voice over]: And those herbivores nourish carnivores… Even others like us… And though we lose awareness, our lives keep moving through the system.

Edward

I’m sorry… [He stabs the rabbit]

Edward [Voice over]: The great flow that maintains the universe, we call it the cycle of life, course of nature. Each of us is just a small part of that current: One in the all. And with out all the individual ones, the all can’t exist. This world flows by following greater laws we can’t even imagine, to recognize that flow, and work within it, to decompose, and recreate…

Elrics [Voice over]: That is Alchemy…

Young Edward

(flashback to the night they tried to bring back their mother) No... it isn't what I wanted... it's all my fault... I'm sorry... Give him back... He's my brother... My leg, my arms, my heart... I'll give you whatever you want... just give him back... HE'S MY BROTHER!

Edward

[throws a rock] Get off her!

[Wrath jumps back. Izumi coughs a few times]

Edward

[transmutes his arm into a blade and runs toward them] You bastard!!

That's alchemy.

Edward

Comon, guys, a band of thugs in the forest? That's so cliche...

Edward

All right! You asked for it! [claps his hands together, as if to perform Alchemy, but nothing happens] Sorry, force of habit!

Edward

This is our home, now. This is where we belong.

Edward

[to Roy] SHADDUP! If your security was as tight as your ass, we wouldn't of got involved in the first place!

Edward

[walking in the desert] It's hotter than two chimeras mating in a boiler room...

Edward

Fuzake n Na! (Could be considered a catch phrase of sorts, as Edward is constantly heard saying it. It's a very informal, masculine way of using the verb "Fuzakeru" which means 'Joke', 'tease', 'lie', etc. Basically it means "Don't kid around", though based on the circumstances, it can translate to anything from "Don't screw with me!", "Cut it out!", "You bastard!", or as sometimes translated in fan works, "Don't fuck with me!" In the dubbed anime, it is mostly commonly translated as "Stop jerking me around!")

Scenes with Edward 127

Edward

So, if you pray and polish the alter enough times, someone who’s dead will be brought back to life?

Something like that!

Edward

Water: 35 l. Carbon: 20 kg. Ammonia: 4 l. Lime: 1.5 kg. Phosphorus: 800 g. Salt: 250 g. Saltpeter: 100 g. Sulfur: 80 g. Fluorine 7.5 g. Iron 5 g. Silicon 3 g. and trace amounts of 15 other elements.

What’s that?

Edward

It’s all the ingredients of the average adult human body down to the last speck of protein in your eyelashes. And even though science has given us the entire physical breakdown, there’s never been a successful attempt at bring a human to life… There’s still something missing… Something scientists haven’t been able to find in centuries of research… So what makes you think that hack job priest with his parlor tricks is going to be able to? And in case you’re wondering… All those ingredients can be bought on a child’s allowance. Humans can be built on the cheap. There’s no magic to it.

WELL IF THERE’S NO MAGIC THEN YOU BRING SOMEONE BACK TO LIFE!

Edward

It’s just a matter of time Rose. Science will find a way. Science is the answer to everything. If I were you… I’d drop the scriptures… And pick up an alchemy book… We’re the closest thing to gods there are…

You’re not a god. You’re nothing close to it.

Edward

And neither is the sun. It’s just a mass of hydrogen. Get close to it, like Cornello claims… And all you’ll do is burn up…

Great, Ed. Put your total cynicism on someone else…

CCray

Don’t worry, Elric. Your brother will join you soon.

Cray! What are you doing?!

CCray

These two are enemies of God. This is His will Rose. Not mine. (Points the gun at Ed)

I don’t think so Mister.

Edward

(Grunts, and throws the helmet at Cray)

I got it! I got it!

Edward

Strike!

Ah! He doesn’t have a head!

Edward

Haha, yeah, that’s Al.

Please don’t be scared, Rose. This is how I am…

You’re not there!

It’s true. I don’t have a body. But I’m here. This is my punishment for setting foot on holy ground where mortals are forbidden. We made a mistake, Rose. And we’re paying for it.

Ahhh!

Edward

Rose, wait!

Cray’s was right! They are evil! What have I done? The made me doubt you, Cornello! Forgive me, please!

Edward

I can’t see a church social down here can you? Uh? There she is!

You’ve wrestled with the darkness and prevailed, Rose. Thank you for bringing them here. State Alchemist, brutal enforcers, I had a feeling one of you would show up some day!

Edward

Well let’s not chalk that up to pious premonitions, okay? You knew we’d come for the stone!

Err… You mean this young man?

Edward

Grr… I knew it, alchemy without a transmutation circle, completely ignoring the principle of Equivalent Exchange! It could only mean one thing…!

Yes the mythical gin, legendary amplifier, the philosopher’s stone…

Edward

That’s it Al, it’s ours… Cough it up Cornello! That stone belongs to me now! And if you hand it over peacefully we won’t tell the people here what you’ve been doing!

Let me introduce you to one of my creations, you of all people will be able to appreciate this...a chimera!

Edward

You combined animals, the most depraved kind of alchemy there is.

Maybe so, but most effective!

Edward

Alright big fella want to play? Let’s go for it!

H-how how did you do that without a transmutation circle!?! Uggh! Bring me his head my pet! (Throws the bird off his shoulder and transmutes it into a giant bird)

Edward

(Points his sword at the bird) Hmm… Uh… (The bird breaks the spear and grabs Ed’s leg) Ah!

Ha-ha… Now snap it!

Edward

(Looks at the bird apparently fine) Wrong leg, pal…. (Bird’s talons break) And here’s the right arm! (Punches the bird across the room, Ed smirks, and looks to his side, at the chimera jumps on him) AHHH!

(Smirks, then frowns.) Heh! Huh?

Edward

What’s the matter, you poor bastard? Can’t get a good taste? (Lifts the chimera up with his arm, and flings him to the side.)

LLust

Mouthwatering, eh, Gluttony? (Gluttony laughs)

That’s impossible… Those claws on your leg… The teeth on your arm! No one could survive that… Unless… Uh! Your limbs! They’re fake!

Edward

Brilliant deduction…!

Oh God...

Edward

Don't look away, Rose! You need to see what happens when you try to bring a human to life, when you cross into God's territory or whatever the hell it is! Is this what you want?! Look!

His arm...his leg, they're machines!

I see… Now I understand you Elric. You crossed the line. You did what is strictly forbidden, you tried to create human life and your bodies were taken to the other side!

(Softly gasps)

Edward

Told you Rose, get to close to the Sun, and you burn…

Apparently so, but you were crazy enough to find out for yourself! You are the Fullmetal! The Fullmetal Alchemist!
