[Hello hello! This morning is looking to be a chilly one, if the view of New Bark Town over this particular feed is any indication; the ground is covered in a crisp blanket of white, the scenery is undisturbed, and the...uh, well, the feed is suddenly winging upward to shoot you a lovely and vaguely motion-sickness-inducing view of the sky. There's

So sorry, kid, but your parents aren't around. You're not even in Amestris anymore.
[He doesn't sound particularly sorry.]

Selim won't be bothering with the cheerful tone; that drops quickly, after a quick glance around. The only other people he's seen so far have been "Mom" and this...professor person; other than that, Misdreavus won't talk. His voice is cold, his tone nowhere near befitting of a child his age.]
Do you want to explain?
[It really isn't your place to be condescending, Envy. Older Brother here will make sure you know that.]

Human children shouldn't ask questions so rudely if they want answers.
[He's fairly sure he remembers Lust mentioning this to him, when they'd discussed their alternate worlds, but that had been months ago; it certainly hadn't been the first thing he'd thought of when he turned on the video. But after that tone…he wants the admission, the confirmation from Selim himself before he'll be certain.]
[And what better way to get that than to make him angry? Envy's quite secure in his position as eldest in his own world, he'll be as condescending as he likes.]

At the same time, Selim isn't angry when he responds. After all, "wrath" doesn't exist in him. No, his tone is rather arrogant, but not truly agitated.
Clearly, you just need to be taught a few lessons. He'll handle that eventually. Maybe not now. But soon.]
You're right. Human children shouldn't.

So, you really are the one from that other world. ...Pride, isn't it?

"Other world"?

Turns out there's more than one version of Amestris. I'm not the Envy you're familiar with, and in my world Selim Bradley is nothing more than a human.

Back home, Selim is Pride. The leader of the homunculi and the oldest. His father, as you most likely already know, is Wrath. [ She just offers him a subtle glance. ] For now, please go along with it and cooperate. I'll be sorting things out with him shortly.

[Mildly frustrated because it figures that Selim shows up and he's a homunculus that Envy can't mess with instead of a gullible human kid. Not that he's worried about Pride, because it's not like this one has powers. But he'll cooperate for your sake, Lust.]
Yeah, yeah, okay. I'll play nice.

[ She'll just smile. She knows exactly why he's frustrated but she'll find an NPC for him to harass later. Whateva you do what you want!!!!!!!! ]
Well, it's not like you had a choice when it comes my boss. But I am glad you're willing to cooperate. However, Envy, he might be staying with us too, unless he finds an alternative. [ after all it is what Father would do! ]
