While this has been placed under the Ed/Winry section of FF.net, the focus is less about their relationship than it is with Hohenheim attempting to connect with Ed through a "birds and the bees" talk. The characterization is wonderful, with Ed getting as easily flustered and angry when he gets a direct to his pride as he does in the manga, and Hohenheim remaining a good mix of cluelessness and wiseness. The writing, like Hiromu Arakawa's original style, balances the angst and humour perfectly. The best part is Hohenheim's prods at trying to figure out Ed and his light-hearted teasing, as well as Ed's over-the-top reactions.
