It was a spectacular rant. Tired, stressed and having spent far too much time in his father's company, Ed snapped.

Hohenheim endured the tirade with a surprised expression that offered no hint toward his real feelings. He might have been surprised by some of the accusations leveled at him. He might have been surprised by some of his son's more inventive epithets. He might have just been surprised by the incredible volume Ed reached.

Whatever the case, Ed eventually wound down. Breathing heavily, he glared at his father.

Hohenheim stared back.

At length, he found words.

"Your pants are unzipped."

Notes: There's something about the way manga!Hohenheim seems to be on a different wavelength from everyone else that I find endearing.
