This weather is Quite Bracing!
[That voice. . . those who recognize it could never forget the man is belong to. No matter how much they tried to, and no matter how hard they tried to repress those memories. (The sparkles, oh god the sparkles and the crying and the hugging and the SPARKLES!) To everyone else however, it was a normal manly masculine

And, boy, is this guy huge. Almost as big as O'Chunks.]
Sir I... think I can help explaining a thing or two.

Armstrong blinks and turn to face the small blonde woman. Then he smiles widely and bows from the waist]
I would be most obliged to you Ma'am if you would be so kind!

Well, this place where you are now, it's called Luceti.
I know it's weird ending up here with no explanation, but this place isn't so bad. Pretty much everything here is free and we are free to do whatever we fell like.
Except escaping, of course.

I see.
[Armstrong gives a slight frown.]
So, we cannot leave this place? That is most disquieting to learn.

I know it's kind of disheartening to hear that, but if it's any consolation, I heard time freeze back home, while you are here, so you don't really have to worry about it too much, if you were in the middle of something important. [Like she was...]

That is good news. My sister would be very annoyed if I just vanished with no explanation! And I would be very upset to leave her in a lurch like that!
[But Armstrong is forgetting his manners, which is horrible.]
Oh! My apologies, let me introduce myself. I am Major Alex Louis Armstrong, at your service!
[Armstrong bows form the waist and Sparkles.]

Not to mention those sparks are kind of adorable, even if a little bit 'off' when paired with such a burly guy.]
It's a pleasure Major Armstrong. [She bows a little as well.] I'm Peach, and I'll be glad to help you with anything you might need.

Armstrong gave Peach a brilliant smile.]
Pleased to meet you Miss Peach! You can call me Armstrong. Since we are not home there really no reason to call me Major.
Thank you.

And, I'll remember to call you by your name only. [She smiles back. It's hard to see someone so sympathetic and happy after landing on Luceti, so his reaction is kind of refreshing.]
Ah! I just remembered. You are in need of some warmer clothes, right? I can take you to the nearby town. They have plenty of stores there and I'm sure we'll be able to find something fit for you.

[Armstrong is just Naturally resilient. And naturally Happy. It'll kick in more later.]
If you can just direct me into Town I'd like to look around more before getting more clothes!
[Since Armstrong is SO HUGE, there is a slim chance nothing would fit.]

Say, where are you from Mr. Armstrong? [Just making some small talk as they walk to town.]

[He's big tall and sparkly. The only thing he has to worry about are crows.]
I am from Central City in Amestris. Where are you from Miss Peach?
[Armstrong is good with small talk.]

I'm from Toad Town, in the Mushroom Kingdom. [Yep. It sounds like she's making that up. But she isn't.]
Reply
Armstrong raises a non-existing eyebrow at where Peach is from.]
I've never heard of Toad Town, or the Mushroom kingdom before. Most curious.
I wonder how we can be from such different places, yet come to arrive here? It is most curious.

Well, it's not so unlikely. At least for me. Back home, we had portals that lead to other dimensions.
Sure we didn't end up in places against our will like here, but it comes to prove such a thing isn't impossible.

I see.
[Okay now the Mushroom Kingdom sounds very interesting.]
There are many mysteries in the world. I should be so surprised that traveling to different worlds is possible. It's just not likely back home.
