Author’s Note - Originally this was started for evil_little_dog and mjules for the holidays. I thought they’d enjoy where this story will go eventually. It was adapted and completed for fmabigbang Thanks to evil_little_dog and lyrangalia for the beta on the first few chapters and to evil_little_dog for the beta on the rest. THANK YOU to the lovely art I received from my artists, seeshelle & Yoporock. I’m so happy with it all.
Author’s Note #2 This is alternative reality. I started it two years ago long before we knew Roy’s exact relation to the Madam so that is different. Also, when this was started, I had no idea what would really happen with everyone at the end of the manga so there are some obvious deviations.

Author’s Note – Written for fma_fic_contest's 'elements/periodic table' prompt. this struck me as I was prepping a lecture for today. Thanks to evil_little_dog for the beta. She accused me of watching the Tom Lehrer episode of NCIS that reran the other day. Actually I learned the periodic table when I was getting my chem. Degree using Lehrer’s song and that’s where the idea came from (and yes I did just see that NCIS eppy again.:-)) And if you want to hear Lehrer’s Element song it’s all over the net.
