Excuse me, are you okay?

[[heh..... I-I'm graduating this week too. So I kind of know how you feel. Except I'm at home. *hugs tight*]]

[Another of the weirdly sweet ones... He wonders if the Al in his world was ever as sweet and innocent seeming as these Als. Or as little... Logic said yes to the second, but it was hard to imagine that towering hulk of a boy ever being shorter than him.]

Uh, yeah. I'm fine. Just hoping yet again to find someone from home.

*frowns, but then blinks*

I've met you before, haven't I? I-I mean... you dress a little differently than most of the Edwards here, like how I dress, well, not like a lot of the Alphonses. *motions to his robes* You... look familiar.

oh crap, i can't remember. really? i know at least two of mine have talked to him... mafia_ed June 8 2009, 02:46:36 UTC
I know there's at least one other Ed that dresses kind of similar to me...

[He tilts his head and the mun makes an executive decision because she can't remember the context.]

And, yeah. It is a bit different. Very formal... My name seems to be the most distinctive thing about me. "von Hohenheim."

TBH I don't remember either, except that at least one of mine has talked to him. *fails* otouto_al June 8 2009, 02:57:30 UTC
*frowns* I... don't remember if we discussed names or not.... but... that was my father's last name.

...we go by our mother's, though. So I'm an Elric.

My distinction, is, well, this... *pulls out his wand, and makes some sparks come out the end*

oh good i'm not the only one... mafia_ed June 8 2009, 03:00:48 UTC
[Ed steps back a little and wonders why the boy is waving a sparkler at him...]

Er, yeah, I used my mother's name mostly when I was growing up. It's just since I, um, got introduced to the family business that it got changed.

Well, it's been a year, too much interaction time and too many similar characters @.@ otouto_al June 8 2009, 03:04:58 UTC
Family business?

my fish-taco refuses to maintain structural-integrity... how do the restraunts do it... mafia_ed June 8 2009, 03:09:36 UTC
[Avoids eye-contact.]

It's, er, it's not really important. I just mean that I moved to the city where my dad lives and just kind of... He's an... important business man and things... And I think he wants me to take over for him and some of his... employees definitely do... My... older brother is kind of... insane... maybe...

I see.

.......you don't need to worry about what it is though....I know what it's like to have secrets.

You-we have an older brother where you come from?

damn... I want restraunt magics... mafia_ed June 8 2009, 03:21:53 UTC
Er, thanks...

Well, not, not we really, I mean, Al has one too but he and I aren't actually related... And I have a half-brother but we didn't really know about each other until about a year ago.

I would prefer iron chef magics otouto_al June 8 2009, 03:27:48 UTC
I'd say that it's weird not to be related to you, but.... I guess I've been around so many that... aren't.

...I can't imagine not being related to my Edward though.

You wouldn't like to get a cup of tea, would you?

hm... so long as it is the old japanese one with the terrible dubbing... mafia_ed June 8 2009, 03:36:10 UTC
Well, Al pretends to be my brother at university but that's just so he can keep a close eye on me and make sure I don't do anything too stupid... I don't really know what it's like to have a real brother, but it seems really nice... I mean, I guess they are kind of like my family now but it'd still be... weird...

Sure. Yeah, that sounds great.

Hey, I enjoyed the dubbing. It was certainly better than MXC. otouto_al June 8 2009, 03:44:32 UTC
It is really nice. ...but I miss him a lot. ...and I wonder if he thinks I've died now... or something... and I worry about him....

There's a cafe near here, isn't there?

yarly! there's no point without the bad dubbing! mafia_ed June 8 2009, 03:48:51 UTC
Yeah... Al got... really mad when I disappeared for three hours, so after this... They probably all figure me for dead now. I would.

Yeah, half a block.

[Points.]

*starts towards it at a relatively slow pace*

I hope mine hasn't worried himself to death....

mafia_ed June 8 2009, 03:56:25 UTC
[Follows and nods, agreeing with the sentiment and looking sad and worried.]

Yeah...
