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!

That's what people keep telling me, that you're the one who's supposed to be like this. I can't...

...used to be? Then you fixed it?

I--nii-san did. But then he was sent away to the other world. Well, an other world

To another world...? If he was able to fix it, then...

What about his automail?

I... he still has it. Well... Rose said he was whole... but then to get me back he got it again.

Dammit, no. There has to be a way to get both our bodies back, I'm not letting my Al live the rest of his life like that!

...if I could... I would too. But being with him... with you.... with my nii-san is more important.

I knew you'd say something like that, but the automail's so rough on him...

I know..... but... I'd rather even be in the armor again and be near nii-san than apart and alone.

You don't want to be like this and I don't want you like this either. Until all these people started telling me Al and I were supposed to be reversed I never stopped to realize how lucky our situation was.

It's not lucky at all....

That's what I thought. But it'd be worse if you were the one in this armor.

No it wouldn't! not at all!

You.... that makes no sense, nii-san!

Dammit, Al, just listen to me. I'm the older brother, it was all my idea, and I'm the one who deserved to be punished for it. I was just dragging you along.

I agreed to it. I did every bit as much as you did. I could have said no! I could have stopped you! I never did! It's just as much my fault and I deserve every bit as much of the blame.

And I've already lived two years without being able to see my nii-san smile. I can't imagine living through seven.

...and all of it is my fault. You don't deserve any of this.

What did i just say? It's not!

Listen to me for once, Al!

Did the me in your world not do the same thing? WE DID IT TOGETHER. WE BOTH ARE TO BLAME.

...I-I... you can't blame yourself like this, nii-san.

HE WOULDN'T HAVE DONE IT WITHOUT ME. Get this through your head!

All the blame is on me.

Do you think I didn't love her and miss her every bit as much as you did?

... ...

*Just gonna keep on believing Al is naive and innocent, thx.*

........

............

I'm glad you're back to normal, though.

You-you need to get back too....

I will, someday. Getting our bodies back is the whole reason Al and I live, now.
