Another new arrival

[Wearing a satin red gown that has gold lace trim. She wears a white silk robe over this. Upon her feet are formal shoes. She shouldn't be wearing them because she has been scolded before for doing so (they should only be worn for important occasions) and she was out wearing them while picking tea leaves. In her hand is a basket of the small leaves. Her eyes widen when she realizes she's not where she was anymore.]

H...Hello?

[[OOC: you knew this was going to happen sooner or later. Say hi to G-Switch au-ish Ling Yao]]

...

[What. Brain malfunction. One moment please]

[She feels a presence behind her. She's pretty good with knowing when someone is or isn't watching her. She turns and when she does look at him, her mouth almost drops open. She however, does not let this happen because that would be an improper thing for her to do. Even though she is shocked, she tries to keep her composure.]

Oh, hello.

[Okay, let's try this again.]

...Hello.

Lost, miss?

I suppose you could say that. This place is..It's not where I was before. I was picking tea leaves in my garden and was about to attend the royal dinner but ended up here.

[She glances at the buildings and suddenly blushes.]

Oh, I apologize! My manners must have slipped me. My name is Ling Yao, Empress of Xing. It's nice to meet you.

[Several things there just make him STOP]

...Ah, yes, it's a pleasure.

My name is Ling Yao, the seventh prince of Xing.

[Well, now she's a bit confused. Perhaps this was all a coincidence? And if having the same name and also having traces of each others looks was indeed one, how awkward would that be? No, there's too many things for it to be a mere coincidence.]

Ling...Seventh prince? How....?

"How?" is a very good question, miss.

[Hand is now pointing to the welcome sign]

This is Central, if you are familiar with Amestris. Many strange things happen here.

[She raises her eyebrows and takes a look at the buildings. Things appear to be familiar and yet at the same time not.]

But this is not the Central I'm used to. This is quite different.

[Interestget]

How so?

[Touches a single finger to her lips and takes another look at the buildings.]

This place feels..Not as advanced as the one I know and..Doesn't look it either. Not to mention the flags are blue instead of green. The vehicles here look old fashioned like something out of a book too. Plus there aren't as many shops around either. Oh! And there's supposed to be a massive three story shopping center over there.

[She explains and points at an empty lot.]

But it isn't.

More advanced...?

[Crosses his arms and thinks]

I see. And Xing? Is it the same way?

[Blushes]

In Xing the elders have refused to make such advances. They believe that a laid back society is better than one with technological chaos. I can't say that I blame them. It's nice to visit Central once in a while but the hustle and bustle of everything, well..Xing is much more peaceful. Very beautiful. We're old fashioned I guess you could say.

[Snorts a little]

The Elder's have always been uptight pricks. Unless they're different in your time. I suppose I'm not surprised to hear all this.

Is Xing divided by clans then? You became the ...Empress by attaining immortality?

Oh..

[She giggles softly and places a hand over her mouth then blushes. She stops and removes her hand from her mouth then shrugs, keeping a smile upon her face.]

Yes they are very stubborn and Xing is not divided by clans. I became the Empress by a strange twist of fate I suppose you could say.

[Suprise, his name is Ling]

Xing isn't? How did you attain the throne, then?

[Sore topic. She casually places her left hand behind her back. Sure she's wearing a cloth bandage to cover up the mark, but she does this out of instinct.]

That is a subject..Perhaps we could save for another time..

[That does not go unnoticed, no it does not. BUT. He'll save it for another time. Still curious though.]

A rain-check then. Ah, but you are Empero-Empress, my apologies. You are the Empress, and this gives me a sense of calm in regards to my own ambitions.

*Staring. No. Not just staring. S-T-A-R-I-N-G*

[She doesn't enjoy it when people stare at her all that much of course. She says her next words firm and yet friendly and soft at the same time.]

It's impolite to stare, you know. Are you going to continue with doing that or will you give a formal introduction as to who you are?

Couldn't help but stare. Haven't seen a gorgeous woman such as yourself around these parts at all yet. On a scale of one to ten, you're off the charts babe.

*Grins*

My name is Greed.

[She thinks about it. She hasn't heard of anyone named Greed before. How peculiar and yet mysterious at the same time. She enjoys a good mystery.]

My name is Ling Yao, Empress of Xing. It's nice to meet you.

Em...Press...?

*Dingdingding royalty. Damn if he could get a piece of that! Because after all he IS Greed. He bows quickly*

It's a pleasure to meet you your highness.

[She blushes and nods.]

I have to say that I've never met a person named Greed before. Very interesting name.

Well, it's unique. Like me.

*Smirks like the conceited bastard that he is*

What can I say, it fits.

As should a name.

[She blushes faintly.]

And I believe all of us are unique in our own ways.

Huh. Good way of thinkin'.

You're not only beautiful but smart too.

[He's looking at her and thinking, hot foreign looking woman! He tries not to drool all over himself.]

Uhmm...Hi!

[A friendly voice. She turns to the direction of where it came from and smiles.]

Hello.

My name is Edward Elric. What's yours?

Ling Yao!

It's nice to meet you.

I've heard that name before. So, you're new then I take it?

Yes. I am. I was in Xing before.

Xing? You mean the place out past the great desert?

Miss, are you lost?

[She gives a slow nod.]

This is Central but not the Central I know. It's rather strange. Perhaps this is a dream?

[She remembers her manners quickly.]

My name is Ling Yao, Empress of Xing. It's nice to meet you...

[Takes her hand and kisses it softly. It's something that he does when he meets ladies of royalty]

I am Roy Mustang, prince of Diercies. The pleasure is all mine, really.

And no, this is not a dream. It's as real as you and I.

[She blushes. Her cheeks are turning a bright pink color.]

Not a dream?..Diercies? I've never heard of such a place. Could you tell me a bit about it?

[Curiosity he likes that.]

It's amazing. Well minus the war going on. It's hard to describe. It has the simplicity of a lush countryside but at the same time the advances of modern times.

You're new here aren't ya?

New....Here?

Yeah and you might wanna read the sign behind you.

Sign?

[She turns around and looks at the welcome sign. She gets a strange expression upon her face.]

Oh my!

Yup! Welcome to Fake Central!
