Kickin' it off with a personal favorite!!

Alright so what better way of starting a new blog than with one of my favorite crossovers?
In fact, this is so awesome, that I'm going to review the whole thing! (Don't worry, it's short.)

So, without further ado, we have our first review!!

Title: Land Over Sea
Author: The loveless Alchemist
Series: Fullmetal Alchemist x The Little Mermaid
TL;DR version: OOC. A little 'wtf were you thinking'. Gives me sadness that it hasn't been updated, because I'm interested to see where it would go. Also, an amazing quote. Female!Edward x Male!Winry with wimpy!Alphonse and seagull!Hughes (yet to be seen). Basically The Little Mermaid with Fullmetal Alchemist characters.



Land Over Sea.
Intro.

Winter sat on the ship looking out into the sea…

Winter is supposed to be Winry's male name, though it's quite feminine.

The sea what a wonderful place in this world. Winter thought as he sat on the side of the ship pipe and wrench in hand, while the wind blew his short blonde hair.

Den, his dog, sat mere inches away waiting for his moment to attack his owner and lick him to death.

Den unlike most dogs had a leg missing…but was replaced by an automail leg that winter had made for him.

"Come on Den! Granny's waiting to show us something!" Winter called to the dog as he got up and started towards the middle of the ship where something huge sat, while granny Pinako stood by it….

Not too bad so far. A few commas missing or put in where they don't belong but not too bad. Though, I wonder what prompted 'Winter' to realize that Pinako had something for them.

Chapter 1.

This is where the REAL fun begins.

Disclaimer:

*Author and Hinamori Amu come out of nowhere*

Author~ Ready to help me Amu?

Amu~ With what?

Author~ *sigh* Not again! I make you guys show up for a reason you know!

Amu~ Oh right!

Author~ Anyway I don't own…

Amu~ Anything to do with FMA Or the little mermaid…or Me for that matter!

Author~ All the criedt goes to the owners the only thing I own is the idea of this story!

Amu~ Why exactly do you Make us extra character show up anyway?

Author~ *Gives Amu a lecture while the readers read*

Okay I really hate this sort of stuff, where the author is talking to a character. We know you're not really talking to them, we can tell you're not a schizophrenic. Still, it just gets on my nerves. I read a fanfic once where more than half of the actual writing is this sort of nonsense, where the author and her friend beat up Naruto and Edward for something or other.

One

"Ed we've seen it now let's go!" A merman with bronze colored hair called to his sister

"There is no way I'm going back home right now! Plus we just go here Alphonse!" Edwina said

"That's right, Alphonse! We go here! This is our place in life. It's where we BELONG."

The golden haired mermaid speed up in her swimming to the abandoned ship she was so egger to see…

Guys, egger is my new favorite word. Now, some one mind defining it for me?

"Isn't it just the coolest!" Edwina asked her brother

"We'll yeah but, what about the sharks, Ed?" Alphonse asked as they got nearer to the ship

"Oh come on Al! You scaredy catfish! There are NO sharks here! Don't be such a guppy!" Edwina said and then swam through a hole of the abandoned ships side

So many things wrong with the punctuation, no? This author seems to love using exclamation points but disregards periods! Let's try it out and see how annoyed I can make people!

"I'm not a guppy…" Alphonse said under his breath

"Ed!" Alphonse called from outside of the ship

We really didn't need a paragraph break here! I hate these things too where you have one line of text and a new paragraph which is also one line of text! I REALLY hate when the whole thing is just quotations!!!

"Al! If you're so scared then you can stay out there and be a look out!" Edwina said poking her head out of the hole and then going back in

"Uh….on second thought I think I'll come with you!" Alphonse said swimming fast through the hole to get to Edwina who was looking at a smoking pipe with a smile

"What's that?" Alphonse asked as he got close to see what she had in her hand

"I don't know! But I bet Hughes does!" Edwina said excitedly

Oh God, I HOPE Hughes does! We'll be so lost if we don't know what this does! No, seriously, guys! I really want to read about Hughes!

Edwina stuffed the item in her red bag hanging on her shoulder…

"we're gonna go see that stupid seagull again? Dad said we couldn't!" Alphonse said

This is where I start to wonder if 'Dad' is Hoenheim or Parental!Roy! I really hope it's Parental!Roy, I love him!

"Yeah who gives a damn about dad I'm gonna go see Hughes! You better not tattle either!" Edwina said before spotting a fork on the floor of the ship

At least Ed's in character! Still doesn't give a damn about his father! Unless this IS Parental!Roy we're talking about!...Then he still doesn't give a damn!

"Look at that Alphonse!" Edwina said

Edwina swam to the sparkling fork and picked it up to admire it…

"I wonder what this is! It's got to be something totally cool!" Edwina said and then shoved it in her bag

Out of the corner of Alphonse's eye he saw something move across the hole of the ship they came through…

"uh Ed….there's something out there!" Alphonse said as he pointed to the hole

"Don't be ridiculous Alphonse! I said there are no sharks, so there are no sharks!" Edwina said confidently

Okay I'm sorry but it's about here when I think 'Edwina? Edwina was really the only name the author could think of? Edwina?'! I mean seriously... Edwina? Maybe even make up a name, I don't know but... Edwina???

"Then what's that?" Alphonse screamed as he pointed to the window of the ship

I don't know, Alphonse, what is that?!

The shark crashed through the window and chased the two around the inside of the ship.

Whoa! It was a shark! I didn't see that coming! Also, this makes me think some what of Scooby-Doo and their in and out of doors shenanigans! That, or they're just running around in circles in one big room!

Until they had come to a dead end that had a small hole window as an escape…But Alphonse got stuck on his way out…

"GET YOUR FAT ASS THROUGHT THE HOLE ALPHONSE!" Edwina screamed as she pushed him

YES! MORE IN CHARACTER-NESS FOR EDWAR--EDWINA!! Though, how you can get 'your fat ass throught' something confuses me greatly!

Alphonse finally managed to get himself through…The shark burst through the ships wall and chased them tell Edwina and Alphonse swam through a anchor's hole trapping the shark…

"Take that Big old Meanie!" Edwina said sticking her tounge out at the Shark

And now Ed is completely OUT of character! Ed would never call some one a 'Big Old Meanie'!! He/she'd call them a 'freaking bastard'!

The shark made an attempt to eat Edwina but missed as she swam to the surface with her brother not to far behind her…

Author~ ….And that Amu is the reason I make you guys appear here in the disclaimer!

Amu~ Well that makes no sense what's so ever!

Author~ Its not supposed to!

Then stop doing it!

Amu~ Whatever! So when are you gonna do a fic about Shugo Chara?

Author~ Soon Amu Soon!

Amu~ Coolio

Author~ Anyway…Review! I Love reading what you all think! BTW Why does it seem that whenever I'm hyper and I put a story on Fanfiction why do I always do this!

Amu~ We may never know!

Author~ Review please~~

Amu & Author~ Peace out Girl scouts!

Sadly, we may never hear from Amu & Author again! I just really want to know how they fit Hawkeye or Izumi into all this!



This one really isn't that bad! Funny to say the least, but still readable! I hadn't stabbed my eyes out during this so I suppose that all's well that--

Edwina: Whoa, what the hell is this shit?! And why the hell am I a girl?!

Alphonse: See, Ed... *snrk* There's a funny answer to that question...

Edwina: WHY ARE WE MERMAIDS.

Alphonse: What are you-- OH CRUD WE'RE MERMAIDS.

Edwina: No duh, Alphonse.

Wellz: Aw man the first fanfic and I'm already starting to lose it.

Edwina: You sure you had it to begin with?

Wellz: ALRIGHT THIS IS NONSENSE *shoves figments of her imagination back into the closet*

BACK TO BUSINESS.

As I was saying, all's well that ends well.... While "GET YOUR FAT ASS THROUGH THE HOLE" is my new favorite quote.

NEXT TIME: I'll introduce a short one-shot with a little 'what just happened' and 'why' between two English-based fandoms!

  1. We used to think the name Edwina was hilarious because it sounded *almost* like Ed Wiener. And obviously anything with "wiener" in it was comedy gold.
