asobouyo | 30th Teddy Bear [Action/Written]

[Action // Thursday, September 22nd]

[It's been eight days since her father left, and despite her searching, she hasn't found him. But this was Luceti. He was here even though he couldn't be back home, so obviously he'd just reappear here again, like mama did! With this knowledge firmly in place, and when school would begin--after a few days of staying home, courtesy of a worried mother--she would carefully sneak around after class was over to survey the forest nearby the building. Not enter it. But listen and squint into the dimness of it.

He might be there. They don't know. Just because all of his stuff went away... maybe the robots took it all, too!

Sleeping in mother's room is a must, for now. For both of them. It makes it a little easier, having someone to hug in the mornings or bitter earlier hours.

She answers the door with a determined sort of look on her face, but it falls instantly when she sees who it is. It's not your faults, really. She's still happy to see you, and the small, shy smile a few moments later says as much. It's just... not what she was hoping for. And then, sitting outside became a habit. Well, it was always important on her list of things to do—to sit on the porch and draw or play. Playing can wait. Just for a few more days. Papa might show up. Gotta stay vigilant. No time for journals, or anything like that, right?

... M-maybe just a little journaling. But nothing new. No... she can go back to old entries and look at them again. Any tears? Well... She cried a little, when it first happened. But crying now would be bad. Shikamaru said it, he told her before when she ripped her doll:

Crying didn't fix anything.

So. She would try not to cry. Even if it was... growing harder not to.]

O-oh....!

[Maybe papa had something he needed to take care of. Somewhere.]

Did you get to take care of stuff?

Lots of stuff.

[And he lost a lot in that time too.]

Did you get to see Ed and Al and everyone, too?? 'Cause I heard you get to see people even when they're here! [The thought is interesting enough to help keep her occupied.]

I didn't just see them, the three of us managed to save all of Amestris. [... they had a little help.]

Ooooh! How'd you do that?? I know you guys helped protect everyone but I never got to hear lots about it!

Oh, would you like to hear the whole story? It might be a little scary. [Though he will tone it down to be child friendly.]

[... Nod, nod.]

Well, first there was an evil man who lived beneath Central. He was the father of seven children, the Homonculus. They all had the potential to be as bad as he was. One of them, who was called Greed, had his own plans for greatness and turned away from them. The others caused nothing but trouble. Many of them were stopped by Edward Elric, Alphonse Elric, Colonel Mustang, myself, and others. But even as his children were stopped, he still had control of the entire country. The colonel, Ed, and Al all had to lay low. As for me? I found an ally with Greed. He worked for the evil man for awhile, but soon enough, he was fighting to stop him as well. That's how I had become a Homunculus. Do you remember that?

[He shows the back of his hand, which is now bare.]

[nod, nod]

W-what happened to your tattoo? It's gone!

Edited 2011-09-27 03:47 (UTC)

Greed left. So he took the tattoo with him. [Simple as that! But not really.]

Oh... [That's too bad. :/]

Then what happened?

Eventually Greed decided to work against his 'father'. So we joined forces with Ed and prepared to stop him for destroying Amestris. The night before the day arrived, we separated for ah... personal reasons.

In the end, we stopped the evil man. It was all very exciting.

That's when the sky was all funny, right?

[It's hard to forget something like that.]

That's right, Elicia. The evil man wanted to consume all the life in Amestris. It's a good thing you all gave him indigestion, isn't it?

Mhmm!! And besides, he should've known big bro and the others'd stop him! They're really strong!

Exactly. I'm sure you weren't worried at all when it happened.

Oh, I was scared a little bit, 'cause there was lots of scary stuff happening! I felt real sick and I couldn't stay awake no more! Mama was the same, and everyone outside!

Well, between the two of us, I was a little worried too.

You were? Even though you were one of the really strong heroes?

All of the strong heroes did.

They did...?

[Well it makes sense, but still!]

It was pretty scary, huh?

Just a little. [He looks back down at her.] Oh, I thought you should know, you won't be able to marry me when you're older. [Just going to rip off that band-aid now.]

Oh!!

Are you... not a prince no more?

I'll be emperor soon. But I'll only get to have one wife. So I have to very careful who I pick.

Ooooooh! What kind of girls do you like?

Maybe people can help you find one! A really good wife!
