[he's randomly doodling arrays in chalk all over the HQ square, knowing full well that he cannot activate them. he's currently wearing his own clothes and whistling.]

I wish I knew why my bluebird never needed an array. And why I miss this disgusting alchemy so...

..ah... I think i'm saying it wrong then. ^^;;;;


Is all of you in there? Or only a part?
Seal, or temporary attachment?

[its-a-hobby.livejournal.com]

A part? Um, I don't think my armor works that way.

[can-i-keep-it.livejournal.com]

It does for me. ^^

[can-i-keep-it.livejournal.com]

Ah... this may be rather... sudden... or... too personal... but....

...can I see it?

[its-a-hobby.livejournal.com]

If you already know about it, then I guess it couldn't hurt. But we need to find somewhere more private.

[can-i-keep-it.livejournal.com]

...I can show you what I meant too, if you want. ^^;

[its-a-hobby.livejournal.com]

Okay. There are actually a lot of things I'd like to ask you.

[can-i-keep-it.livejournal.com]

...any idea where we can go?

[its-a-hobby.livejournal.com]

Um, not really, this is the first time I've been... wherever this is. What about you?

[can-i-keep-it.livejournal.com]

....umm... would an alleyway be ok? Otherwise......

[its-a-hobby.livejournal.com]

[Nods and heads for the nearest secluded alley-type place, looking around to be sure they're alone.]

I don't suppose you have any idea what's going on here, do you?

[can-i-keep-it.livejournal.com]

Well... I was trying to follow my brother through the gate to the other world... and ended up here.

That's really as much as I know.......

[its-a-hobby.livejournal.com]

That Ed in the weird outfit said something about a Gate too, but I'm afraid I don't know what you're talking about.

If you don't mind my asking, why was your brother trying to go to another world?

you --

[can-i-keep-it.livejournal.com]

...isn't that where your body is?

[its-a-hobby.livejournal.com]

I'm not sure if I still have a body. We have theories, but--

Is that how you got back to normal? Your body was waiting for you at this Gate?

[can-i-keep-it.livejournal.com]

You have to! I mean--


...I honestly don't remember.

[its-a-hobby.livejournal.com]

Sorry, I really didn't mean to upset you! If that's what happened to you, then there's a good chance there's something similar where I come from and we just don't know about it yet. And even if there isn't, I'm sure we'll figure something out.

You don't remember getting your body back?

[can-i-keep-it.livejournal.com]

It's fine. It's not your fault.


...I remember trying to bring mom back... and something going wrong... and then waking up in the underground city.

[its-a-hobby.livejournal.com]

Except for the underground city part, that's all pretty familiar. Is your brother missing an arm and a leg too?

[can-i-keep-it.livejournal.com]

*nods*

*Closes eyes and tries to remember the details he's memorized from Winry*
Right arm up to the shoulder, and left leg above the knee.

[its-a-hobby.livejournal.com]

I know it isn't easy to talk about. This is almost too weird for me to deal with. Oh! You wanted to see the seal, right?

[Checks to make sure no one's watching before taking off the helmet and kneeling a bit.]

[can-i-keep-it.livejournal.com]

I kinda know what you mean....

Oh.... *Reaches out, almost to touch it, but stops short*


...I almost didn't believe................

[its-a-hobby.livejournal.com]

[Straightens back up and puts the helmet back on.]

It isn't familiar to you?
