[#18] Hand for Healing

[wontjustwait]

[ Well, after getting over the initial trauma of losing her hand, Winry's dragged herself out of the self-pity corner. Sure, being one-handed is going to take a bit of getting used to, but she's not one who likes sitting around. ]

That's what I get... At least it looks like it's healing nicely....nngh... [ though, looking at it makes Winry cringe. ]

Oh, Shorty's girl has made an appearance here, too...

And I told you before, I'm Greed.

[wontjustwait]

Ling, what're you--- oh right. That.

Well then, Greed, let me know if I can drop by to visit sometime, okay? [ worried regardless. ]

[onyourtab]

...Huh? Uhh, sure?

[wontjustwait]

Yeah... I lost my hand... But you know, at my job back home I see people who've missing their arms and legs for years and they're perfectly happy! What sort of message would I be sending my customers if I just gave up over this?

[kimitoaruiteku]

I'm okay, Winry. I went to visit Ed all on my own! [Trying to be reassuring that he can take care of himself.] How are you...? I heard about your hand...

[wontjustwait]

Be careful, Al. Next time, we should visit him together, okay?

I'm okay. I still have my other hand, you know. I can learn to use my left just as well as my right.

[kimitoaruiteku]

I hope you can get it back one day...

[best_papa_evar]

I'm going to figure out a way to fix this problem if there's no change--stay strong, Winry.

Are you feeling okay?

[wontjustwait]

okay... thanks, Mr.Hughes...

[ really not handling the missing limb as well as she tries. ]

Yeah, I'm okay. I think the fast healing at Mayfield helped me get over the blood loss, so now it's just... the hand. [ or lack there of. ]

[best_papa_evar]

Is it your dominant hand?

[braided_icarus]

Yeah. Make plans, and once we figure what to do about your hand, you can get started and I can go home from this goddamned hospital already.

[wontjustwait]

I'll come by for a visit soon, then, to take measurements.

Don't worry, I'll figure something out. Losing a hand isn't going to stop me. Kind of an ironic injury for me though, huh?

[braided_icarus]

Yeah, okay. Probably grown a little since last time anyway.

.....Yeah. [Considering what he had said to her after Scar. That's one of the first things he had thought at finding out her 'price'. And he hates it.]
