*The small homunculi could be found perching precariously on the back of a bench near the Central sign everyone saw upon entering. At first, he didn't seem to be paying attention to his surroundings at all, lost in thought as he was. Wrath had contemplated long and hard over his problem, after several conversations with Edward's recently.*

...Huh.

*It seemed like almost everyone he met had some sort of family...or at least a name that tied them to one. He was naive in a lot of ways still, but decided that he wanted a name too. Homunculi deserved them! ...If they wanted them.

He wanted to belong to a family. It wasn't fair! if he couldn't! He deserved it too!*

Mommy...

*He had to find Izumi. She could answer his questions. But...where would she be? Leaping down from his perch, the homunculi stretched, wandering towards the sign.*

*She let out a small yawn as she walked out of the Inn. Her mind was too clouded to focus on one thing alone. She was on her way to the public library but stopped when she saw Wrath and walked over to him.*

Wrath?

MOMMY!

*The young sin launched forward, throwing his arms about her in a hug. It always made him happy to see her again.*

*She opened her arms and wrapped them around him.*

How have you been, my heart?

*He relaxed almost immediately, nestling closer with a soft sigh. Here at least...he had his mother. That made it better than Purgatory.*

...Mmm..

*He reluctantly pulled back to look up at her thoughtfully. Studying her eyes gravely before speaking softly.*

Mommy...how come I don't have a last name. Like...Edward or Alphonse...or anyone else here. Is it...because of what I am?

*She was surprised by this question, but she gave a warm smile and brought up a single hand then ruffled his hair.*

Sweetheart, you do have a last name. You're my son so you have the last name of Curtis. I didn't tell you before because I never had the chance to.

*His smile softened once more, leaning into the hand petting his scruffy hair with a small laugh.*

A name! I have a name now! *he was positively beaming, arms locking about her waist once more.*

Curtis...

*He breathed the name softly, awed. He...really did belong now. Not just a Sin, not just a homunculi. A Curtis. A person.*

Wrath Curtis...

*he tilted his head upwards for approval.*

*She indeed was glad that Wrath was happy. That's all she wanted for the longest time, was to have her son back. She missed seeing his smile, everything about him. It had broken her heart when the Wrath she knew had turned against her back in her world. But perhaps she was brought here for a reason, to have a second chance to take care of her son the way a Mother should.*

I'm glad you like it. Now then, what shall we do today, hmm?

I just want to spend time with you!

*he replied earnestly, gazing up at her.*

Edward can have a break and get some rest

*He added with a low chuckle, flashing her a mischievous grin. He was grateful for her presence here, it gave him a chance to redeem himself. A chance he'd been robbed form when Purgatory had taken him from The Gate.*

*spots Wrath, putting his hair back. It's a bit of a mess, as is the rest of him...he's still got dried blood from healing himself from the chains digging into him. And he knows he and Wrath didn't part on the best of terms, but hey--he's just happy to be himself again after two years.*

Wrath!

*He whirled at the voice, eyes widening. Envy. With dried blood still caked to his skin. Warily he moved towards him, studying him curiously.*

You were the serpent! You got free!

*nods, still grinning. omg, it's Wrath. At proper eye level.*

So what were you up to for the two years I was gone?

Huh...I lived with mommy for a little bit....but she died...and I stayed with Winry and Alphonse...but I died...I got to go into the Gate...but I didn't get to stay. I live in Purgatory with Edward.

*He explained, putting a hand on his hip, looking up at him thoughtfully.*

Purgatory? Huh...

*lil smirk, hand on his own hip...wonder where the kid got it from. XD* So...did you miss me?

... *He thought about it for a moment. Honestly seemed to mull it over.*

Sometimes. But I don't miss you making me your punching bag! *he added, guardedly*

*waves him off* Yeah, yeah. Well, maybe if you grew a spine and stopped whining about Sloth it wouldn't have been so bad.

*lil smirk* Still think she's your mommy?

*looks away for a moment.*

Uh huh. But Izumi's my real mommy.

*He added defensively, bristling as he stepped closer to the other.*

*just more of looking amused...not really looking for a fight either, judging by his body language.*

...you've gotten a lot tougher, haven't you.

*Envy didn't seem to be looking to pick a fight...which Wrath was pleased for. But Envy could change moods, it seemed, in a moment's notice. Better not to completely leave his guard down.*

Uh huh. Had to in Purgatory... It's not like home.

Purgatory...yeah, you mentioned it. What the hell's up with that...?

There are gods there...they say that's what they are. They know things they shouldn't and they bring us there. I was in the Gate...and then I woke up there. They said you were there...but I never saw you.

*He shrugged, meeting his eyes.*

It's just me, Greed, and Edward. But I like this place much better.
