Sure. -=And he strips out of his coat, then his sweater, then another shirt and finally the undershirt before going to where he's supposed to sit/lie down/stay. In the mean time, he stretched his arms over his head with a small groan before he flopped down.=-
Hmm....Well, yes, I suppose. I'm sure we'll find something, and if not, we can always try build it with material from other empty buildings, in the right location we are after...
[As long as it isn't Armstrong, Ed. Good thing he isn't here to sic on her. He's nice but a little overbearing.]
We will. There's plenty of material to scavenge. -=quiet muttering. He's still plotting areas, rooms, and the like.=- If we can manage to get running water and perhaps electricity, that would be great. Maybe something with a turbine and water to make both work. -=turns to look back at her.=- Think that's something you'd be up for?
I could try come up with some plans for you to look over. I'm not sure how long it would take, but I guess, we are still looking. And once the plans are up and we have the material, you could use your alchemy to make it, right?
Sure you were, Ed. You usually only ever come to see me for maintenance when it's completely destroyed.
[She wasn't deliberately poking at him, this was justifiably true! She has numerous cases of such to back this up, Ed. But there is a small wry, slightly exasperated smile at that more then anything.]
Hm. Not too much. Mostly been trying to make this place a bit more habitable and cleaner, really. Why?
[A pause for a few seconds, then she beams at him.]
In that case, I think you could help with helping clean? I've got most of it done, but there are still some bits I'd like to go over again and might have missed.
[So very used to you being shirtless over the years now Ed, it doesn't phase or embarrass her at all by now. Nope.]
Hmm...Mostly going through and sorting what is in the cupboards and things now. Like I said, I've done most of it already, but there are still a few things.
[Will not be pleased at that, Ed. But for now, she's working on cleaning up while letting him work nearby, though not seeming to pay enough attention to what he is doing to figure he is deliberating gracing the shop with his gaudy creations. Oh, Ed.]
-=... Why are there never enough skulls in a building? Oh-hey. Hi! He glances back to Winry and then back to his work, chewing on his lip. He shouldn't be making those skulls, but that made all the little things look so drab and boring without them. Maybe she wouldn't notice him changing all the knobs to skulls...=-
[No, Ed. Skulls are not a normal and seamless blending into the normal decor of the place. You fail. But, luckily for you, she is still too busy tinkering around cleaning to notice.]
-=Yeeeeeah. She won't notice. And this knob. It's squeaky and so terribly dull. He sneaks a look back at her and transmute it to something small, shiny, and ... well, almost not a skull. He tried. He really did.=-
[Still cleaning and not paying much mind to the clap and sound of alchemy, she's used to it by now and he had said he would not transmute anything gaudy like usual.]
-=Well, it doesn't look like a skull in the right light. He'll just move on to the rest of the knobs, making certain they were all tight and looking the same.=-
[You know the first thing she will do is yell at you over the PCD. And then storm to find you and drag you and Al over to fix it and show you how it SHOULD be done.]

Date: 2010-02-24 12:33 am (UTC)Hi, Winry. You settling in okay?

Date: 2010-02-24 05:10 am (UTC)[She sighs, running a hand through her hair before stepping to the side to let him in and shutting it after him.]
First things first, lets check that arm.

Date: 2010-02-24 12:10 pm (UTC)Is it warm enough in this place for you?
[offline]
Date: 2010-02-24 04:22 pm (UTC)It's warm enough. If it weren't, I'd have said something. Besides, that's what layers are for. I'd be more worried for you, in the cold.
[Ever blunt, but referring to that Ed would pretty much be shirtless most of the time he came over for maintenance.]

Date: 2010-02-24 11:50 pm (UTC)-=belly down, Ed gathered Winry's pillow underneath his head with his left arm, indulging in a sniff.=-
Besides, winter won't last forever. And I'm not frostbitten yet.

Date: 2010-02-26 09:18 am (UTC)[She either doesn't pay the pillow sniffing any mind or didn't notice it, too busy checking if there is dirt in his auto-mail again.]
[offline]
Date: 2010-02-26 12:02 pm (UTC)Find any dirt, yet?
Al and I are going house hunting. We're trying to find something that has some more defense to it.
[offline]
Date: 2010-02-26 05:14 pm (UTC)[She explains absently in response, listening as Ed mentions house hunting.]
That's a good idea then. I'm sure there will be somewhere you find that we can stay, there are plenty of empty buildings I've seen around.
[offline]
Date: 2010-02-26 05:28 pm (UTC)Plenty of buildings, yes. But the question is are the suitable for us, and will it be close to the shop here.
-=Definitely doesn't want her to having to walk far, especially in the dark. Thinks about that, mentally telling himself she's getting an escort.=-

[offline]
Date: 2010-02-27 03:35 am (UTC)Yeah. I think it seems alright, nothing too damaging or clogged up. You should be fine.

Date: 2010-02-27 11:52 am (UTC)-=yeaaaah, sure he was. It was so apparent.=- So what are you up to, today?

[offline]
Date: 2010-02-28 03:18 pm (UTC)Okay. Well, if you're going to do that, then you'll need containers and stuff to keep things organized.
-=any excuse to use his alchemy and put 'reminders' that he's around in her shop. Mostly involving skulls, flames and horns.=-
