Well-- okay I guess. Most of this is headcanon since he's a bit-part character, sob.


1) See that hat he wears? His mother knitted it for him. As for why it's so ridiculous-looking...
2) She got sick (probably from her husband's alchemy work) and died before it could be finished. Fletcher was four at the time. He carried it around for years until he'd grown enough to fit it.
3) He went through a phase when he was seven where he pretended to be able to talk to plants. He had his brother Russel fooled for about two days.
4) Russel and Fletcher have a semi-regular routine where Russel will put his head on Fletcher's head and comment, "You've grown." And Fletcher's response is, "Watch out, I'm gaining on you!"
5) He secretly yearns to be at least half a foot taller than Russel when he's grown up.
6) When Alphonse (spoilers) de-aged and lost his memory at the end of the series, Fletcher cried. A lot.
7) Is an atheist. Like probably most alchemists, actually.
8) Birthday is April 10.
9) Fletcher climbs trees like nobody's business. Don't even challenge him to a tree-climbing race because you will lose.
10) Has not had formal schooling in upwards of two years, but still knows more science than most of the adults in his village.
