Transmutation - 12

[wheresmyhouse]

Edward, it appears there's been a change in plans.  I have some business back up North, something left unfinished since our last visit

It'd be pretty boring here by myself. What's going on?

[wheresmyhouse]

Did I ever explain to you why I was up North to begin with?

[upyourscolonel]

I don't think so, I was too busy flipping out over the Drachma incident.

[wheresmyhouse]

The incident involving a rather large, tunnel digging pest.

[wisdom_pearl]

Ah. ...I must apologize if I am intruding on something personal...but I wish both you and Ed a safe journey.

[wheresmyhouse]

Oh, not at all, miss. And I'm grateful for the well-wishes.

How are you doing yourself, Miss Zelda?

[wisdom_pearl]

...You'll try your best to refrain from taking off-schedule trains, I hope?

Ah. I am...fine.

Yourself?

[wheresmyhouse]

Good heavens yes.

...Are you sure?

I'm doing better than expected, actually. Things have become quite nice around here.

[youresoshort]

Is something wrong, Mr. Hohenheim?

[wheresmyhouse]

Ah, Colonel. You recall the pest problem I mentioned up North?

I received a phone call today, it appears the supplies are ready. I'll be heading up North to see if I can take care of it.

[youresoshort]

I see. I will make sure everything is ready for your arrival.

You'll have to forgive me, but I'm afraid I won't be able to meet you at this moment.

[wheresmyhouse]

That's fine, Edward will be accompanying me.

Is everything alright?

[automailmaker]

You want to take Ed with you to the north? He'll need an automail change.

[wheresmyhouse]

I believe he's already seen Pinako about that.

[automailmaker]

Oh, alright. I'm not around anyway.

[wheresmyhouse]

Yes, he said he didn't want to trouble you, especially since this is somewhat urgent.
