Euphemia looked up to see who she'd been waiting for, and she immediately felt guilty for dragging the young man out to see her in the pathetic state she was in. Smiling as best as she could with that little bit of guilt, she stood up so he could see the extent of the damage to her dress. It was rather torn, the front of the white underskirt ripped up to her thighs and barely long enough in the back to cover her shins while the pale purple part of the skirts were nearly non-existent. Combined with the blood, she knew she looked like an awful mess.

"I'm glad you could make it, Alphonse. You see, this is how I arrived, though I'm... not entirely sure just how I ended up like this. I'm not wounded, which only leaves the worst possibility, but I don't remember a thing."

She wouldnt dare take a step toward him, for fear of chasing him off, so she simply held her hands in front of her and bowed her head slightly for a moment, fingertips brushing over a crimson splotch (she managed to keep herself from recoiling too much -- she just closed her hand so she couldn't touch the blood), before looking back up at him. "If you decide you don't want to help me, I understand. I must be giving you a horrible first impression."
