001. [Video/Action for New Bark Town]

[blackholedson]

[Hello hello! This morning is looking to be a chilly one, if the view of New Bark Town over this particular feed is any indication; the ground is covered in a crisp blanket of white, the scenery is undisturbed, and the...uh, well, the feed is suddenly winging upward to shoot you a lovely and vaguely motion-sickness-inducing view of the sky. There's

[Gorthan tends to not think much of posts from cute kids, because cute kids are yet another one of those many things about Earth and its civilization that he's still not sure whether he should consider repulsive or absolutely adorable, slightly leaning towards the latter most of the time. But. He has clear memories of something that Kimblee said once.]

Fuhrer King Bradley. The name isn't new.

[Selim will just be staring at the screen for a moment, trying to figure out if this is a good thing or not; he doesn't recognize this person and he looks nothing like anyone in Amestris - really, what's that on his face? - but they claim to know something about the Fuhrer...hmmm.]

Do you know my father, then?

[Let's just 8D for all we're worth, then!]

I'm afraid all I know is that he is a military authority in the country of Amestris.

I have never met him, nor do I know what he looks like. But, judging from the little I know of him, I'm sure he is a fascinating individual.

Oh! Yes - he takes care of all the people in Amestris. He's their leader, and a good man.

Who told you about him? Do you know someone from Amestris, then?

Don't worry about your mom or dad. I'm pretty sure they won't notice you're gone.

[...Edward Elric. Great. This. This is lovely. Fullmetal's been causing issues at Briggs, hasn't he? Interfering with Sloth - though that can't exactly have been entirely the fault of Fullmetal here, given Sloth's normal level of utter genius, but still - and causing various issues all over for Kimblee, hasn't he? So it's possible that he knows more than he should.

...at the same time, that's a bit of a weird response for someone who knows more than he should, isn't it...?

...you know what, let's just fanboy him hard and see what happens.]

Ah, it's you - Mr. Fullmetal Alchemist! Thank you so much for responding so quickly; it sounds like you know what's going on - but of course you do, right?

[RIGHT?! oh god so much 8D it hurts

If it's possible for someone to be in your face through a video screen, Selim is currently in your face, Ed.]

[ w e l p

she certainly wasn't expecting her boss to show up.

Does this mean she gets paid at least? ]

[ OKAY NOW SHE'S COMPOSED SO SWITCHING ON THE FEED AND MAKING A LOCK.

She's making a lock she's checking it twice

She's going to find out if you're selim or pride!

Lusty claws is coming to tooown... ]

My, my, I certainly wouldn't expect you to show up. It's interesting to see who comes in here next. May I ask, Selim, just how is your Father's plans in central going? [ She's testing the waters first. She believes he's Selim given that Envy managed to find him first and the act dropping faster than she can fucking blink is definitely a strong indicator. ]

[...Lust?

Hang on, hang on. It's going to take a moment to process this fully, because this isn't something that should be happening. You're dead; you've been dead for a while now. He knows better than to assume it's Envy, simply because Envy should know better than to try to pull something like this in all seriousness. So no, this...is Lust, then.

Mind = blown.]

We're a long way from Central, aren't we?

[And there's the usual confidence, the lightness in his tone stopping just short of being mocking. He isn't aiming it at her, of course; more the situation as a whole.]

Father's plans are going well, though we've missed our sister so much - but more on that later, I think.

After all, the answers you can give me are much more pressing, aren't they?

[No more little kids, Johto, okay? Isn't the whole "you wake up in a new world" thing bad enough for teens and adults?]
