How many times am I going to have to repeat this sentence?

Alfons, can we talk?

Nothing's the matter! Jeez, I didn't do anything!

[nemoubliepas.livejournal.com]

*sighs*

Edward, did you...want to come inside, or something?

[failed-alchemy.livejournal.com]

*cue the end of the flailfest*

Oh...um...

Are you sure you don't want to chase me off for listening...?

[diedinafire.livejournal.com]

...hurry up and get in here before we change our minds.

[nemoubliepas.livejournal.com]

It's fine, Edward.

Just come in...

[failed-alchemy.livejournal.com]

*would've said brat, but he'd be calling himself a brat, now wouldn't he. 8D*

...fine, fine. *gets up, dusting himself off, and heads to the door*

[diedinafire.livejournal.com]

*Yes he would.*

[nemoubliepas.livejournal.com]

*goes to let Edward in, coughing a bit as he goes ._.;;*

[failed-alchemy.livejournal.com]

*blinks as soon as Alfons opens the door* Alfons...don't you think you should sit down? *already moving to come inside, but...he's more than a tad bit worried. :S*

[diedinafire.livejournal.com]

I was telling him that too.

[nemoubliepas.livejournal.com]

I-I'm fine, though...I'll be fine.

[failed-alchemy.livejournal.com]

No, you're not. And you haven't been for a long time... *putting a hand on Alfons's shoulder, gently pushing him towards a chair to make him sit down* Just...let us figure out something we can do about this...

[diedinafire.livejournal.com]

*Pushing a chair over so Edward doesn't have as far to push Alfons.*

[nemoubliepas.livejournal.com]

*sits down ._.;;*

It's not too bad...

You two shouldn't worry so much...

[failed-alchemy.livejournal.com]

*trying to get a look at Alfons's hands* Coughing up blood is bad, Alfons. Very bad.

We have every right to be worried about you...

[diedinafire.livejournal.com]

What, would you rather have us not care?

[nemoubliepas.livejournal.com]

*pulls his hand away, not wanting Ed to see the blood from earlier*

I...I don't want you not to care, but...

Really...you two shouldn't fuss over me, or anything.

[failed-alchemy.livejournal.com]

We have to, because you never seem to want to take care of yourself!

[diedinafire.livejournal.com]

...yeah, what he said.

[nemoubliepas.livejournal.com]

*flinches*

...I'm sorry then.

[failed-alchemy.livejournal.com]

*quiet* Neither of us want you to die, Alfons. And we're going to do our best to make sure that doesn't happen. But you have to stop being so damn fatalistic...

[diedinafire.livejournal.com]

Like I said, you can't do the things you want if you get killed doing them. So just listen to us.

[nemoubliepas.livejournal.com]

...it's too late, Eduard. I already told you.

I'm not going to just give up on the things I love!

[failed-alchemy.livejournal.com]

Dammit, Alfons! It's never too late! You can't think like that!

*reaching up into his sleeve, quickly undoing his right arm and letting it drop to the floor*

Do you have any idea what things would be like if I'd just given up the way you are now? Al would be dead. Along with a lot of other people. And you and I would have never even met. What do you think will happen if you just give up and die now? What will happen to the people who matter the most to you?

*Staring in shock at Edward's arm, and lack thereof, so doesn't really have anything constructive to say.*
