I've bunkered down the cow as best as I can. None of us should be outside now until the weather breaks. The rope leading to the barn is buried, and if I find any of you being stupid and trying to break your cabin fever, you can expect me to kick your ass once you thaw out.

Hey. Don't go out. The wind out there will suck the body heat right out of you.

Date: 2010-01-18 11:47 pm (UTC)If I'm going to die young, the damage is already done, Brother. ... but I have a stronger soul than you'd think, right? I've worked this backwards and forwards, it's just like transmuting an object, so long as it's my own soul.
I don't know what allows me to do it, but... I have this ability. I want to use it to help people, to protect myself, and to keep everyone safe. ... you've made sacrifices too, Brother... you gave up your arm for me. You put yourself through your automail operations.
You may not complain about it, and others might not notice, but I can see how stiff your back is sometimes. It's in your eyes, in the way you walk. I know you're in pain. Think of all the injuries you've gotten in our journey, trying to get our bodies back to normal. Who knows how many years you've lost, even if you don't count the childhood you gave up. For me.
... I don't want to live some long, peaceful life, being protected and set up on the shelf like some china doll. I've never been like that.
I want to be out there, doing things, using my gifts, and at your side.

I love you, Brother, I don't...
[... but he doesn't know how to say that.]

Is there any hot water left in the teapot?
