This is going to be fun!

I can't decide what kind of costume I should wear for the party. Does anyone have an idea I could borrow?

Oh, and what's everyone else going to wear? Or maybe it should be a surprise...

I might be able to transmute something into a costume for you, if you still need it.

[fairy_script]

Transmute? What does that mean?

[edsplosion]

I'm an alchemist.

I think you or... Lucy? One of you talked to my brother, Al.

[fairy_script]

Um...I think that must have been Lu-chan; I don't think I know anyone named Al. Is that him in your icon?

I've read about alchemy! Where I come from, it's theorized to be the beginning of magic. That's really neat! So you can turn lead into gold and all that? Do you have to follow rules of equivalent exchange? That always came up a lot when I read about it.

[edsplosion]

Yeah it is.

There always has to be equivalent exchange. The only way to break that is if you have the Philosopher's Stone.

Lead into gold is actually outlawed by the military. So is human transmutation.

And alchemy is science, not magic.

[fairy_script]

He's very big. How come he has a suit of armor and you don't?

Ah, I thought so. I've read a little about the Philosopher's Stone, but it seems to be one of those things that's perpetually shrouded in mystery.

Oh! Really? Wow. What's wrong with turning lead into gold? Oh, I guess it could upset the economy a lot...

Yes, that's the idea. It has its roots in science, but magic has its roots in alchemy!

Al is awesome! Levi, he is the one who helped pait the Fairy Tail mark on Dawn!

Also, hello Ed, I'm Lucy.
