saintedsinner-=Ed's been busy outside. Namely, he's been hauling dried, cut grass and placing it into a bin along with other edibles for one pink cow. It's been a long day, and one can tell he's been working hard with the slight burn on his shoulders and the sweat making his hair cling to his skin.=-
There. I think this is a good start.
-=It keeps his mind off things, this kind of work. After the week long deal of feeling other's emotions, Merlin turning crazy and the loss of some key companions here, it's all Ed could do to keep sane. But he won't let it show on this network.=-
Hey, Mustang? You still running around here somewhere or did you decide to go back and give Father what for?

-=He's not going to take the risk of someone turning into a FREAK that has knowledge about his automail, either.=-

Date: 2010-08-30 03:11 pm (UTC)I know. Or, at least, I know now - but that still doesn't excuse what I did. What I said.
I... [Takes a shaky breath.] it won't happen again. I won't let it.
I just. Wanted to apologize, is all.

Date: 2010-08-30 03:18 pm (UTC)-=Flat tone, Truth hurts, fucking disappointed.=-
[Voice]
Date: 2010-08-30 03:23 pm (UTC)I. I've killed before. I won't deny that. But it has only ever been to protect the ones I love, and I've never taken any enjoyment from it.
I would rather die than become what I did that past week.

Date: 2010-08-30 03:55 pm (UTC)[Oh, it is so fortunate that Merlin chose not to go to video for this, because he's having a hard enough time controlling his voice to worry about his face as well. James told him not to cry. He's trying.]
I. I'm sorry that you feel that way.
I won't - I won't bother you again.
[Voice]
Date: 2010-08-30 03:58 pm (UTC)-=Not what he meant at all! If you're sorry, do something about it instead of whimpering about it. But Ed was never one to explain such things. Merlin will have to go to Winry or Alphonse for that insight.=-

Date: 2010-08-30 05:34 pm (UTC)If he wants to whine and blubber about shit that can't be changed instead of just pressing onward, that's not my problem.
[Private//Unhackable]
Date: 2010-08-30 05:40 pm (UTC)[Sigh.]
He doesn't know you. He came into this already afraid, already hurting, knowing that nobody here has any reason to trust him after what he did. He's been here a month, Ed. He's all alone, away from all of his friends, and Rhode's influence took complete advantage of him, and now he's tryng to deal with the consequences.
He was trying to apologize to you.

Date: 2010-08-30 05:46 pm (UTC)...
-=Then a huff as he wipes his face=-
He's gotta show a back bone if he's going anywhere near my arm and leg. Haven't seen it yet.
[Private//Unhackable]
Date: 2010-08-30 05:55 pm (UTC)You might want to tell him that's what you meant, then.
[Al's not going to. That would be babying Ed.]
[Private//Unhackable]
Date: 2010-08-30 06:02 pm (UTC)I'll be back later. Going for a walk.
[Private//Unhackable]
Date: 2010-08-30 06:08 pm (UTC)[He couldn't have scolded him THAT hard, right? Nah, he's up to something.]
