Hey! I would really like this to be moved to the intermediate section. I started it and I really would like to get some crit and advise on it.

-SHORT STORY-
Ever since I could remember, my life has sucked. Really, I can't remember much of the old days, when Mom was still... alive... After she died, everything just kept spiralling out of control. Al and I made a vow, that we would bring her back.
Well, look where that got us.
I lost my arm and my leg, but that's nothing compared to what happend to my little brother. He lost his whole body, and was damned to live his life out in a unfeeling metal shell.
And it's all my fault.
No! Don't even look at me that way. It IS! I edged him on! It's my fault that any of this happened! It's one thing that will never change! It's an undeniable truth. I did this to myself, and worse, my brother. Even if Al wanted to do that transmutation, I could have stopped him. I should have stopped us both! I'm the older brother! I was, and still am, responsable for Alphonse! I should have done something! But no. I was stupid. And stupidity cost us both drastically. I will never make that same mistake again. The mistake of being so incredibly stupid. The mistake of hurting my younger brother. Never. Again...
...Ahem... Well... on a brighter note... Things have gotten better. After years and years of searching, we found a way to get our bodies back...
But, like everything else in my screwed up life, there was a catch.
Only one of us could do it. One of us could get our body back.
You wanna guess what happened? C'mon. I bet you know.
Yep. We faught over it. Oh no! Not for ourselves. I begged and pleaded for Alphonse to stop being such an idiot, and get his own body back. Al said he could live out like he was. I flipped. I was instantly pissed, furious, and stupidfied at how completely idioic my brother could be! Then... I screamed at him. It was along the lines of ,"YOU'RE AN IDIOT! A COMPLETE IDIOT! HOW COULD YOU BE SUCH AN IDIOT!?"
Yeah, somthing like that. The overuseaged of the word 'idiot' seemed like it fitted that situation...
In the end, Al was the one to get his body back. To this day I still have my automail. I like to think of it as a reminder. Pathetic, isn't it?
Well, ever since Al got his body back, things have been looking up. As soon as held him in my arms for the first time in five years, I felt a weight lifted off my shoulders.
2 months later, today, I start to think...
Maybe...
... my life is starting to suck just little less...
