-=Ed's studying. Or doing something with a book and notebook and scribbling things down. He looks up for a moment, rubbing his eyes.=-

Oh.. hey, this thing's on again. -=Stupid thing.=-

Anyone seen Al recently? I found these journals in my room, and they look like his handwriting but... -=He sighs a bit, bringing up his right hand. His fleshy right hand.=- This is ridiculous. Why would he be writing like he was me? And how we got our bodies back?

It's another weird thing the Animus are doing, right? Making us believe in these weird pieces of history they've dropped everywhere. It's another mind fuck, isn't it?





[[For the duration of the what-if event, Ed has NO AUTOMAIL. Feel free to point that out.]]

Aye, the Animus are up to more games. [Roland looks a little uncertain. He's spoken to a girl who is Castiel, but he's certain Cas was a man before. And now this...] Ed, was your right arm not... ah, I think the term you used was auto-mail? [He's one to talk. His right hand has reacquired those missing fingers.]

[video]

[saintedsinner]

Huh? No, that's my brother Al. -=But the question makes him look back a the journal.=-

It's weird that you're validating this journal like that, though. But really. Al has the automail. I don't.

Strange. A number of the memories I have of this place have been altered, then.

[exarmatio]

What do you mean, he's writing like he's you?

[saintedsinner]

Well, take this passage: "I didn't want to leave him in that dome, but with the way he cajoled that bastard into the idea, I couldn't get him out. They had a point, I hate to admit. The only one able to deal with Pride effectively was Al."

-=he looks up.=- Al...wasn't in the armor, then.

[exarmatio]

... but I thought...

Ed, where's your automail?

[taijiya]

I spoke to Al yesterday... he was nice enough to explain this city to me. [She examines Ed and, not knowing that he's supposed to have automail in the first place, sees nothing out of the ordinary.] Are you the family he spoke of?

Re: [video]

[saintedsinner]

Oh yeah. I'm Ed. -=a bit of a smile there.=-

Leave it to Al to still be upbeat about things.

Re: [video]

[taijiya]

It's nice to meet you, Ed. I'm Sango, and this is Kirara. [Cue the greeting meow from the kitten.]

He did seem very cheerful... and very taken with Kirara here.

[bunny_flower]

... Your arm, Edward-san?

[saintedsinner]

Yeah? -=looks confused.=-

What about my arm?

[bunny_flower]

What happened to it?

[istoppedtime.livejournal.com]

There's some sort of event going on. Haven't figured out just what yet.

[video]

[saintedsinner]

You too, huh? I keep feeling like it's on the tip of my tongue, sometimes.

-=Of course, getting the brush off from Rachel didn't help.=-

I'm sure I'll figure it out soon enough.

[video]

[istoppedtime.livejournal.com]

What's in the journals anyway?

Ahahaha. Guess whose getting lurked on more than Alphonse because of this... |D

[hisbutler_bound]

I don't understand what you mean. I'm fine.

Yay creeper guy!

[saintedsinner]

Well, congratulations. I'm fine too.

[hisbutler_bound]

I can't help but sense a bit of sarcasm, Edward.

[thelonegenin]

The Animus ain't changed nothin', stupid.

[saintedsinner]

Oh, they changed something. -=he's there rubbing something on his own face as if to imply Naruto has something on his.=-

Only the really dumb ones can't tell.

[thelonegenin]

...

[That's makes his eyes narrow. Is there something feral in them?]

You need'ta watch your mouth.

[al_truism]

What's up?

[saintedsinner]

I found these journals in my room, Al. They.... they're in your handwriting-sorta. But the point of view is as if I wrote them.

Come on up here and see for yourself.

[She's never met Ed so she probably doesn't see much different with him]

Must be. Some of my gear is missing and I found a sketchbook lying around. The stuff is pretty good and I suck at drawing so it can't be mine.

Still I don't know how anyone else could have known some of the stuff in here. You think they made it up to trick us?

[saintedsinner]

Of course they did! That's what the Animus do!
