Summary
“I volunteer! I volunteer as tribute!”
His shout draws all the eyes that were previously glued to Al towards him, and Al too whirls around. “Brother—no!”
They promised, they promised not to do this, and Ed had really only agreed because it was Al’s first reaping, the chances of him being selected were so low … If Ed had known how gut-wrenching that terror was, the terror of watching the Peacekeepers come for his little brother, he would never have agreed in the first place.
He would rather break his promise than have to watch his brother die.
--
Before Edward can make it through the Games, he first has to make it through an interview with Caesar Flickerman.

Summary
‘‘I used to think Fullmetal was a crude nod at your prosthetics…’’
Roy Mustang’s words were laced with a thoughtful hum, and Edward tried not to feel hurt by the misassumption. Many heard his title and assumed it came down to his automail arm and leg. Ed had just hoped the Colonel – after everything – would’ve been different; that Mustang would’ve looked past Edward’s ill-fitting uniform and cripplingly-heavy automail and only see him as a person.
‘‘But,’’ Mustang continued, pensive, ‘‘I think they spelled your title wrong. You’re not Fullmetal, you should be Fullmettle. As in, you are full of mettle.’’
Edward blinked, utterly baffled.
‘‘Mettle, kid. M-E-T-T-L-E.’’
Mustang spelled it out for him. Literally. A genuine smile tugged at the Colonel’s lips as he rumbled out a fleeting chuckle, affectionately sweeping a hand over the top of Edward's golden crown. The boy's throat constricted as an annoying warm blur suddenly invaded his vision. He had experienced more kind words and actions under this man’s brief command than he had experienced in a long, long time.
It was just a shame that it was only a temporary arrangement.

Summary
Roy never thought he would see another pair of golden eyes in his life.
The first thing Roy set his gaze on had not been the huge suit of armour, nor the little boy’s double amputation or the wheelchair, and not even the soulless look in his eyes. It had been the colour of them.
It felt like he’d lost the ability to breathe. Seeing that kid made him choke on his tongue, cutting off oxygen to his lungs as if he’d just been punched in the gut. He might as well have, from how fast his heart dropped.
---
or, Hohenheim has a reoccurring trait of walking out on his kids, and his wife dying a year later. Also all three kids have golden eyes and a tendency to immediately go try human transmutation after a traumatizing event. This changes how Roy sees the Elric brothers. His brothers.
