Summary
Across from Roy, his unit, and the Elrics, was a strange… thing. It had the vague shape of a human, but instead of flesh and blood, it was emptiness. It was the void around them compressed, forming something of nothing. The featureless face suddenly split, an eerie toothed grin that made Roy’s hair stand on end. Run, his instincts shrieked, even as they despaired: Nowhere to hide, nowhere to run, you can’t hide, not from that.
“Long time no see, Truth.”
“Ah, ~Li-ttle Al-che-mist~! So nice of you to drop by!”
…
Roy Mustang had never quite figured out if the Elric brothers were a blessing or a curse. After this particular chain of events, he came to understand it was neither, God just found them amusing.

Summary
“See, that’s something that I don’t, that I can’t, get,” Edward admitted, shaking his head. “I don’t believe in a God, especially not one that people claim is good or just or knows what is ‘right’. The Universe isn’t just or merciful, that’s something humans have to make for ourselves. The Universe just… Is.”
“You’ve seen the Thing beyond the Gate,” Roy said idly. It wasn’t something he liked to recall, but he did remember It. It was hard not to… especially when It was the last thing he’d seen before his world went dark. In any case… “That thing calls Itself God.”
Edward rolled his eyes. “It also calls itself Truth.”
…
Or, an exploration of Edward Elric, the Universe, and God.
