[Ever since New Years, he's taken to trying to stay indoors when he can, venturing out only when necessary. Since the arrival of a certain short blond alchemist's parents, he's been trying to keep an even lower profile... because it's cold outside, and automail is metal, and getting punched by a cold metal fist is not high on his list of priorities.

After all, what if it was like getting your tongue stuck to an ice cube? What if he wound up stuck to Edward's arm? And of course, this opens up a whole new can of worms that he doesn't even want to think about because he isn't the one with the metal limbs...

But even more pressing is the fact that he's noticed something here and there on the floor of his apartment: feathers. His feathers. Not a lot, but definitely not just one or two. This means the question must be asked, and so he turns to the journal and its video function.]

Perhaps someone else will be able to answer this, but is this [A pause as he turns the journal to point at the feathers on the floor] normal?

Maybe Ed will do it! It'd be worth asking, at least.

[If only so he can see the reaction.]

[voice]

[inabook]

...That's unfortunately an accurate reaction.

[repudiate]

Please make sure you don't actually swallow some before you'd realise it. That would be kind of gross.

[Action!]

[ignitethesky]

[Her smile is met with one of his own and a nod of acknowledgment.] Roy Mustang. It's a pleasure... though the circumstances could have stood to be a little better.

[But at least she can fix that, right?]

[Buttons and pins and thread? That doesn’t sound too hard. And it’s all little things, so it wouldn’t require too much effort...]

I’ll see what I can do. And in the event that it can be done here, to whom am I giving them?

voice;

[ignitethesky]

I should probably leave the asking to you, since he’s liable to try and test my metal-eating skills if I did it.

[Voice]

[ignitethesky]

Hey, there aren’t that many of us here.

[ video ]

[ignitethesky]

Hopefully the wings are the only part we have.

[Video]

[rather_be_surfing]

Ah.

[That simple word carries so much unsaid, Roy. So. Much.]

Just arrived?

[voice]

[window_watching]

[She chuckles a little.]

Well, now you know.

[Voice]

[window_watching]

Ye-- [Pauses.....

yep.] I'm not sure I can argue with you on that point. [SORRY ED.]

[Video]

[ignitethesky]

A few months ago, actually. At times it feels like it's been a lot longer.

[voice]

[ignitethesky]

It's a shame he wasn't a sweet little girl instead. His outbursts were far less volatile and he was much friendlier in general when he was female.

[Video]

[rather_be_surfing]

Yeah; I know what you mean. Keeping track of time in this place can get a little disorienting.

[Action!]

[geniustheveil]

[She'll do as much as she can, at least.]

I'm sorry for the circumstances as well. Please come in.

[voice]

[deathsdoctor]

[A wry small smile.] I unfortunately used all mine up earlier. My apologies.

But come down to one of the clinics. I'm sure it's a natural shedding, given that there's no pain, but we can take a look and make sure.

[Video]

[ignitethesky]

I'm glad to know I'm not the only one who thinks so.

voice;

[ex_affability656]

He's probably going to try doing that anyway.

[Video]

[seakingbait]

Oh! I never introduced myself!

[She laughs nervously, scratching the back of her head.]

I'm Keimi, it's really nice to meet you!

voice;

[ignitethesky]

Probably, but at the very least, it wouldn't be for asking him about eating fire.

voice;

[ex_affability656]

Nope! Just for hitting on his mom, instead.

[...] You know their father showed up, too, right?

voice;

[ignitethesky]

Yeeeah... I saw that one after the fact. A lot of Amestrians, but none of the good ones. [AKA. attractive single women]

So what foods taste good when pureed?

[Hey, it's good to know for future reference, right?]

[ video ]

[repudiate]

Well, maybe they didn't exactly base the wings off birds'.. It could be based of angel wings instead, although I have no clue whether angels are supposed to molt or not.

[Voice]

[avaricious]

There's four times as many of you as Xingese. For a country as small as yours, it doesn't make that much sense.

[voice]

[window_watching]

When he-- [She will just. Wtf for a while on that.]

I don't think I heard you right. When....he was a girl?
