Added DiffLines:

''Through Fire and Rain'' is an ongoing ''Manga/FullmetalAlchemist'' fanfic by Kemnam. The story begins with Roy Mustang being [[{{NebulousEvilOrganisation}} captured]] and eventually transmuted into a salamander chimera, which doesn't exactly go right. [[spoiler: One of Roy's gloves is accidentally dropped into the circle with him and a salamander and, being an alchemical object, gets mixed in. This results in a '''deep''' affinity for flame alchemy and other interesting things.]]

This fic is on [[https://www.fanfiction.net/s/9427663/Through-Fire-and-Rain Fanfiction.net]] and on [[https://archiveofourown.org/works/12746133/chapters/29072214 AO3]].
