Por Ella Soy Riza

Hello world!

We have finally set up our drum kit again, now in the basement instead of my room. (BASEMENT BAND!~) (I'm actually coming with potential band names.) Now if only we could find our written music...

I have been using my sketchpad a little bit more, like I had said I wanted to do. I will most likely rip out some of the pages, though, because the last one I have done has just the most horrible sketches... I wanted to cringe at everything.

I have been thinking more about crossover fanfics. I will most likely not publish any, unless I have a genius plot and know I can make a good ending for it. Until then, I'll just put any I write in my private collection. The two I have thought about and have done at least a summary for is Fullmetal Alchemist with Adventure Time (this could be super lame, but if I develop this into a full story, I will make it well thought-out and interesting) or Por Ella Soy Eva.

Most people must be like "Wut" at that last title, so let me explain a little more. It is a Mexican soap opera that was shown on TV 2-3 years ago. It was actually very unique and interesting, so it was just about the only telenovela I've ever been sucked into. Imagine: my grandma, my mom, my sister, and I were all obsessed with the show during its last month. We were freaking out on the day of the finale.

Not only did it have a big twist compared to most drama plots, it also had good leads. It's because of that show that I am such a big fan of Jaime Camil! (I always squee when I see him in a commercial or something.) Lucero is awesome-possum too, of course, although my fave thing about her is her hair. *giggle*

Back to the crossover thing. I guess it wouldn't be a crossover, it would be more like playing out Por Ella Soy Eva with FMA characters. This would be the summary of this AU (alternate universe), unless I changed the role of one or two of these people... you could mix up who does what easily for this, but this is the first casting I thought of.

Edward Elric was framed for a serious crime he did not commit. He was about to go to jail for life before he died in an accident. ...At least, everyone THINKS he's dead. 

No, he is actually very much alive, hiding from the world. He needs to find proof that he is innocent before he can be freed and be with his love Winry Rockbell. He recovers over several months, (waiting for the media to calm down,) and forms a crazy plan with his cousin, Riza Hawkeye (the only one to know he is still alive): use a new identity while he investigates.

Now disguised as a woman named Riza (Hawkeye is letting him use her name), Ed enters back into Amestris and finds a job in the same company as Winry, who is now going out with Ling Yao, the man who framed him.

Between watching over Winry, glaring at her criminal boyfriend, living life as "Riza Hawkeye", and keeping his real identity from being discovered, it's a surprise life manages to throw him into other loads of trouble and craziness. 

Let's not forget that "being Riza" includes having a boyfriend...

That boyfriend part? In the show, the main character ends up being asked out by "her" boss, and becomes the "girlfriend" of the man so as not to make people suspicious. I did not get into the series until long after that happens, and when my mom told me, I was like *ew*. But since Juan Carlos, AKA "Eva", is totally straight, he always makes the poor guy back off. No kissing or touching or anything close to that.

My guess is that in this FMA version, that poor guy to fall head-over-heels for Ed/Riza would be Roy Mustang. *bursts out laughing* NO, maybe it should be Alex Armstrong! *starts crying from laughter*

Besides the fact that I definitely don't remember enough of Por Ella Soy Eva to write this, and I'm not willing enough to watch all of it, another problem would be trying to figure out where all of the characters would fit. Like, where am I supposed to put Alphonse? He's gotta be somewhere! I don't want to cut him out of this AU!

A few more things to mention. I watched How to Train Your Dragon 2 and Maleficent with my dad during the week. Both were great, of course.

My sister and I also spent at least 2 hours at the Mcwane Science Center in Birmingham, which is actually super awesome. Even better because they had an animation exhibit made by Cartoon Network, which had a ton of really awesome things to do. We found out that a guy was going to propose to his girlfriend there when some workers were hanging up pictures for the special event. The plan was that he and her and her kids were going to walk throughout the whole building, come across pictures of them together every once in a while, and at the very end pop the question. That is a really cute and creative idea! Both my sister and I wished we could have been present when he asked her to marry him, but we weren't exactly going to stop doing our own thing to stalk him until he finally did it. *nervous laugh*
