Perhaps she hadn't seen Roy in a month, but if anyone thought that anything short of major revolution - or Lianna needing her - would keep Aly from celebrating Roy's birthday with him. Especially since if she didn't show up, he'd probably try to pretend that it hadn't happened and he was still 29.
No one was falling for that anymore. They were just too polite to say anything.
Aly's first indication that something was wrong came when she realised it was a Sunday afternoon in Amestris. Odd, that - she was pretty certain it should have been a weekday. The day change didn't change where she found him of course, and Aly didn't bother to knock as she made her way into the General's office. "Seriously? We've had a conversation about working on Sunday at least once before, right?" she said, her tone acerbic though her lips were trying hard to smile.
