Finally back in Central. Not that visiting Rizenbul was a bad thing, but now that we're back we can get back to work. It's nice not being a bunch of tiny pieces of scrap metal piled up in a crate, too.

...Al? Al, where'd you go? You were just there a minute ago!

BROTHER?! What are you--

That's not funny!!

What's not funny, Al?

Pissed Al is pissed.

[engineerelric.livejournal.com]

I can't believe you're--

Take that off, Brother! Right now!

[trulyfullmetal.livejournal.com]

...*figures it out*

I can't, Al. I'm not wearing this armor, I am this armor.

[engineerelric.livejournal.com]

*Al steps back...in complete and utter shock.*

......You're lying.

[trulyfullmetal.livejournal.com]

No, I'm not.

It's different for you, huh? Your arm and leg...

[engineerelric.livejournal.com]

You wouldn't get in the armor. You brought me back. After all that...

You wouldn't have...


!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Then...

You have someone bound to you too, Brother?!

My arm and leg? What about my arm and leg, Brother?

What are you talking about?!?!

[trulyfullmetal.livejournal.com]

I've been in this armor all along, Al. It's... different for me.

Someone bound to me? What do you--


Your arm and leg, they're not automail.

...

Then it's really as the other Al said. There ARE multiple yous running around.

...But if you were bound to the armor, then...

Who has the Linking seal?! It can't be Alfons...that was who it was when it was me, but...


No. Where I'm from, you brought me back from Armor. I lost my memories when I became whole, and Alfons helped me regain them.

There's a seal, but... *He lifts the helmet up, and there's the bloodseal drawn on the inside of the armor.*

I keep hearing there're other yous inside this armor, but it's not right. That's not how it should be.

[engineerelric.livejournal.com]

*Al takes a look at it...and then nods.*

I don't...remember a lot of the Alchemy involved...but...your Linking Seal should be on the other side...someone is bound to you. And experiences your life through his dreams.

...If it's anything like me, then...


...Brother, I'd rather be in the armor if it meant...preventing you from...
