[Video] It's worth a shot.

[The bar is not in the best shape compared to the usual videos; the wall has a fresh set of dents and cracks, and periodically a slim girl in a simple black cocktail dress wanders most perkily through the background with exorbitantly heavy looking arm fulls of scraps of wood, brick, upholstery, and other remains of what was probably furniture at

Is everything all right?!

[material_guy]

Not exactly. But, we've got two State Alchemists on hand and we're workin' on gettin' the cash to rebuild. Actually, [Missing the point of her question, he glances around idly from his perch on an offensively green, blood smeared pile of wood and shredded fabric.] since we're in the middle of renovations, it might look a little worse than it did when the damage was all fresh...

[phoenix_temple]

Is anyone hurt? I can help.

[material_guy]

Nn? Iya, since Envy's who he is, getting into a twenty on one bar brawl with a guy who might be any one of us would've made it messy, and I can take him by myself, so I had them clear out... But then those two showed up and... Anyway, everyone here's basically okay.

Rrr... why're you offering to help, anyway?

[phoenix_temple]

Are you sure?

Helping is the only thing I can do. Why would I let healing magic go to waste?

[material_guy]

Healing magic...? Rrr, as you can see, I'm just fine, and the biggest problem for everyone else is relocating for a while while we take care of this... But, I'm working on settin' up a schedule so we can empty some rooms by puttin' 'em on work schedules and sending a few out of town on a few jobs, and if someone's gonna be scouting those two in this world, now's as good a time as any to hustle someone out for a while...

Actually, now that I think of it, that glasses porn would probably be a great fund raiser or a morale boost or something! Hang on, lemme go ask the Monk, he's single again now, maybe he'll be up for it!

[phoenix_temple]

No. I am very much taken and faithful.

[material_guy]

Well. Damn.

Your guy wear glasses?

[phoenix_temple]

No and you would not be permitted to film us even if he did.

[material_guy]

What about audio recordings? Some people're actually really into sexy sounds, too, it turns out!

[phoenix_temple]

No.

[material_guy]

Yer takin' it a lot better this time around, though. Maybe yer warmin' up to the idea!

[phoenix_temple]

Hardly. I simply find less reason to be embarrassed, now being in a relationship of my own.

[material_guy]

The little girl's growin' up---Iya, that sounds like I'm talkin' down to you, but that's not really how I....
