What...

What was his price.

Al - what the hell was his price? Why did you agree in the first place? My baby brother and he lost his body because of me and - oh god.

[/private]

He - he gave it up again -

I am the worst brother on the planet. Everywhere, in fact. Oh god. This is not happening. No no no no -

We'll just give him some red stones. And then he'll stop just being tired and hungry, and we can find out who he is! He'll be fine.

[corrupted_steel]

HE IS NOT GOING TO BE OKAY, I mean he's not going to be fine 'cause he's missing his memories and oh god he gave up his body and he shouldn't have done that -

Wait, what? Where the hell are you going to get Red Stones?

[sins_rebellion]

New homunculi always are missing a lot of their memories. A lot never get more than a few back. He even has people around who knew him. He'll be fine.

We don't have to get them.

I-I know, but...he's never going to be the same Al I knew ever again! I never - [voice climbs a pitch] I never wanted him to do it, being a homunculi isn't really the best thing that could happen ever and I can't bear to see him like that and and and I still can't think straight -

So, how do we...?

[sins_rebellion]

[Muttered]Maybe not the best thing that could happen to some.

Everyone changes, Ed. And he was already a different Al. At least you don't have to worry about him dying.

They're already here. So we just give him some.

...well, to some who didn't have a choice in the matter...

I. But he's Al and it's not like - why does he have to - well that's a whole world of relief, really. Immortality sometimes isn't all it's cracked up to be. It's just...I'm worried about him, Envy...

...where? I never knew there were any here.

Who's ever had a choice about it besides this Al? You think all the other times the dead people just resurrected themselves?

He's only part Al now. He'll handle it like anyone else. Worrying won't change anything.

I have plenty. A stash of them the bitch gave me. Adds up over four centuries, even having to use or give away some of them.

...He shouldn't have made that choice. He shouldn't.

But. He. What if he's so different - wait I know he's going to be very different and oh hell I don't know if I'll be able to stand that.

...what. I never saw you - so you're willingly going to give them away?

[sins_rebellion]

He's allowed to make his own choices.

He'll be different and he'll be himself. That's how it always is.

I haven't had any reason to pull any out. Bitch gave them to me for injuries and new homunculi. I've given them away a number of times, both with and without strings attached.
