Do they say the last six months? I didn't remember that bit. And unfortunately, I can't remember whether Marco says it starts or ends 13 years ago, or just _was_ thirteen years ago. But Roy even looks younger in all of the Ishbal flashbacks, at least to me.

And heh, I didn't even think about Ed...to me it explains why he seems so incredibly idealistic at certain points, particularly in the flashbacks, and why he went to Ishbal, when it seemed to me that Hughes really strongly implied in the flashback in 25 that he could have avoided it if he had really wanted to.
