-=In the lobby of Midgard, watching snow fall, sipping tea. He looks pensive.=-

[[Yep. He's thinking. Enjoy!]]

[She's not always good at spotting things straight off. To say the least.]

Oh, good morning, Alphonse!

[thesoulbound]

-=he'll still be bright, though.=-

Good morning, Miss Giselle! How are you?

[afterandalasia]

Quite well, thank you~ I was just on my way out. How are you today?

[thesoulbound]

I'm alright. Nothing I can complain about. Where are you off to?

[afterandalasia]

Oh, I was just going to head down to the market. It's difficult to find some things, so I find that going down fairly regularly helps.

[Someone's missing fruit and veg already. This is going to be a frustrating winter..]

You're looking well. It looks as if you've recovered fully from the water~

[thesoulbound]

Oh. Yes, the water. -=clears his throat.=-

You seem to be doing well, too.

[afterandalasia]

Thank you. Yes, I think that things are going okay. [Slight pause.] I think that King Laharl has forgiven me for the snowfight as well. I hope that everything's been quiet at the clinic.

[thesoulbound]

Oh yes. Quite quiet. Which is a good and a bad thing.

[afterandalasia]

I suppose that it must mean that people aren't getting hurt... but what's wrong?

[thesoulbound]

I've just been thinking about home. I guess it's a little nostalgic.

[afterandalasia]

[She goes to sit down next to him.]

I don't remember if you told me where you were from. What was it like there?

[thesoulbound]

My country is called Amestris. My hometown is rural, and very pretty. Rolling hills and green fields. -=there's a soft smile in his face=-

[afterandalasia]

It sounds wonderful. Sometimes I wish that magic portals or Gates led to those sort of worlds, instead of away from them. [She laughs a little, in a way that she might not have done before. It's a little more appreciating of the irony.] I remember you saying that you were from the... 1920s, though?
