Hey, guys? I don't know if you people have figured it out or need a message like this, but it's been snowing for a full week. Non stop. And not just spittin' snow, but pissin' snow. And it doesn't look like it's going to stop, any time soon. That's a bad thing, just in case you didn't know.


Can you even get out through your front doors? If this keeps up, we're all gonna be buried.

Pretty soon, all the houses are going to be nice and warm because snow insulates, but you're all gonna suffocate if you don't keep some air circulating some way. Just warning you, since everyone's all intent on hopping on out in six feet of virgin snow, expecting to be able to move and shit.


You are all insane.

Ahyeah? I'll keep that in mind then, next time I confuse someone n' almost get him scolded.

'Ey boss, by the way, where'd you find that pink brute'a yours? I was thinkin' of havin' a couple of animals in this shed I gotta fix up still out back come spring time.

Private

[saintedsinner]

Hmm? Marge?


She... she found me when I showed up and I haven't been able to get rid of her since.

Private

[2ndlt-jeanhavoc.livejournal.com]

[......Oh god it has a name.]
Aha, I see. Gonna have to go cow trackin' come the springtime then. Ai says there's chickens around this part here too. If I can keep 'em properly I'll get my daily exercise if you can use th'eggs over there n'dont already- ...actually that's a good question.

What all do you have for animals over there, Boss?

Private

[saintedsinner]

-=ALPHONSE named her! Not him!=-

Just the cow and a bunch o' cats.




[I...think.]

Private

[2ndlt-jeanhavoc.livejournal.com]

[The mention of a bunch of cats definitely makes Jean laugh softly. He's very amused right now.]
Most of which, I'm assumin', are Alphonse's?

Private

[saintedsinner]

-=the grunt says it all.=-

Private

[2ndlt-jeanhavoc.livejournal.com]

[Yeah Jean sure thinks it does as well.]
Ah-Boss, it's not all that bad. Least y'got no allergies to 'em.

[He pauses a long, long pause, because it looks like he's trying to figure out how to say something, then turns his attention to the side for a moment and back at the PCD.]
How much d'you know about my ex, Solaris?

Private

[saintedsinner]

-=ooooh, fuck=-


I know a bit. Plenty, actually.

Private

[2ndlt-jeanhavoc.livejournal.com]

[He nods his head, alright, that's at least a step in the right direction. Jean doesn't ever think he could come around to calling her anything but Solaris.]
Then I'm gonna assume you know Solaris was one of Envy's type. I only wanna know two things.
Did Solaris survive and did The Colonel survive.. n' by survive, I mean is he still fightin' the brass?

Private

[saintedsinner]

Yeah. To both things.

Private

[2ndlt-jeanhavoc.livejournal.com]

[Good.. Solaris was still alive then, and even better the Colonel. God how he worried about that much of it.]
I know it's a touchy subject, Boss n' I appreciate it - you answerin' that is. Truth days or not, could'a just not said a thing at all.
One last one n' then you won't hear it from me again.. In all y'learned about 'em.. can they ever be ... uh..
Dunno how t' put this... Rehabilitated? T'be people again, even with that form?

Private

[saintedsinner]

I don't... know.

First, homunculi aren't people. They never were. They're creatures that Father created for his own bidding. Sometimes they have their own form from the Gate, and sometimes they possess a human and take on their form.

When the homunculus takes over a body, it obliterates the soul and takes over. There's nothing left of the previous person except for memories that the homunculus can access. The only exception...


There was only one exception. Greed. Somehow, Greed and Ling co-habitate in one body, but I think that's more because of Greed's nature than something that was a fluke or some sort of evolutionary process.

Private

[2ndlt-jeanhavoc.livejournal.com]

[Jean takes it as one big "No.". For once, however, he is extremely happy that there's more than a three second reply. It's taken him a while to come to grips with what his last memory of Solaris is and this just kind of helps close the chapter.]

Greed? And Ling? Y'don't mean th' Ling that's here in Adstringendum? That guy's a Homunculus? Should we be keepin' an eye on him?

Private

[saintedsinner]

-=And Ed's starting to feel less useless. He can at least fill Jean in on some stuff.=-

Nono.. This Ling came here before he became Greed. Still doesn't make him any less of a moocher. So... he's okay.

...

He's been infiltrating into the homonculus' places here, though, under the guise of being Greed, last I heard.

Private

[2ndlt-jeanhavoc.livejournal.com]

[Jean looks visibly relieved seeing as Ling's been to his home and knows where he lives - little does he know Lee is Envy.]

He's not such a bad guy, Boss, give him time.
Braver man than I am. Last time I saw Envy was a couple months ago. I'd like t'keep it that way. Been givin' you two any problems?

Private

[saintedsinner]

He's not bad at all! He's just a moocher.

All's been quiet here.

Private

[2ndlt-jeanhavoc.livejournal.com]

Huh... Never would have pegged him like that. Though he does call me Minion. Not that I mind at all.

I hate stirrin' the pot but I just hope quiet isn't cause there's a big explosion in the makin'.

Private

[saintedsinner]

He falls over dead if he's hungry!

Yeah, I know what you mean. If Alucard and Envy get together with that weird Saul guy, we'd be in a heap of trouble.

Private

[2ndlt-jeanhavoc.livejournal.com]

Well I'm sure we'd all fall over dead if we were hungry, Boss.

There's sure potential for a bunch t'go down, isn't there? I'm gonna have t'talk to th'Colonel.. we gotta work somethin' out- a 'just in case' plan. As it stands we got three different places all th'Amestrian's are all spread out to... Least we all live in th'same quarter.

Private

[saintedsinner]

You've never seen him in action.

Yeah, I know what you mean. If one of the houses gets into trouble, it's going to be hard for everyone else to help, especially with freaky weather like this.

Private

[2ndlt-jeanhavoc.livejournal.com]

Gonna have to rectify that once this weather lifts. I liked that thanks givin' thing so much, may just do another random thing.

Exactly my thought, Boss.
[He sighs softly.]
Maybe we oughta have some sorta PCD Conference 'bout it? We're really at a disadvantage and I don't much like it. Mind ya there's not much else we can truly do about it.
[Another sigh, it's frustrating to think about.]

Private

[saintedsinner]

Yeah, that sounds good. -=seems distracted for a moment.=-

Might want to include my old man on that. He was a Nationalist's Alchemist too.

Private

[2ndlt-jeanhavoc.livejournal.com]

[Jean facepalms himself in the duh moment he had.]
I entirely forgot about your Pa showin' up, Boss. 'Course he'd be included.

Private

[saintedsinner]

-=Pfft. Ain't that hard to forget about him. He just sits in his study.=-

Yeah. It'll give him something to do.

Private

[2ndlt-jeanhavoc.livejournal.com]

[Jean can almost feel the animosity from this side of the PCD. He really had hopes that they could have a new start here, just like he said talking to Winry.]

He's new t'Adstring and... well your Ma's here too. I can imagine he'd wanna spend some time with her. We'll put him t'work once us brilliant minds get t'gether.
