[Voice - Locked from Al, Winry, Gracia, and Elicia]

This might seem like a weird question, but I need to ask.

A lot of people - kids, even - act like they're fine with death and killing. The draft taught me that much. And around here dying doesn't even seem to matter because you just come back anyway. Is that what makes it- [Not okay, he can't ( Read more... )

baby's first mallynap, in which ed rambles a little, !homura, !smoker, !shizuo, !alexis, damn your morals to hell, !anise tatlin, !freyjadour, [action], !archie kennedy, !shikamaru, !tony stark, there is a point to this honest, !alphonse, !robert hastings, !silver, hey look it's 3-oct-11 literally, loaded questions, life and death and why, !miyabi, !haruhi, !winry, !chopin, !richard, lost in thought, murder is not okay, !hiccup, !roy mustang, !minato arisato, !ling, [voice], !accelerator, !son goku, !keimi, !vash, ed is still an idiot, !luke fon fabre, !lindsay d ballard, !stahn aileron, !leonardo, !beat, !ginia, uncomfortable subjects

[She's not even going to touch that question. Still, that tone in his voice sparks her to respond.]

...Ed-chin? Are you okay?

[Oh, geez. Probably shouldn't have left it so open, but he did want something of a broad audience. His own fault.]

Yeah... sorry, Keimi. I'm okay.

Okay. [She pauses for a moment. She wants to say I don't believe you, but for some reason, she can't bring herself to say it.]

Maybe... you shouldn't stress yourself out thinking about... stuff like that.

[Spoken from experience. Keimi does her best not to think about all that's happened in her past, and the potential chaos waiting for her when she returns home.]

This isn't something I can just ignore. And... I won't run away from it, either. Not if I want to learn the truth.

[As unpleasant a subject as this is, it's not something he wants to just brush aside. Especially when it affects Alphonse, too.]

That's very brave of you, Ed-chin. I don't think I could ever do that.

I... guess you could call it an occupational hazard, too. As a scientist and an alchemist, I'm bound by the truth. I'd be pretty bad at my job if I just ignored the truths that make me uncomfortable.

[Voice] Woops. Wrong icon. sea_king_bait October 3 2011, 23:23:27 UTC
...Good point. But still... it really takes strength to be able to look at the truth with a straight face. I'm jealous... a little.

It's not like I'm anything special. Anyone can do that if they try hard enough.

Really...? Can you... teach me?

[Show me your ways, Edward-sensei!]

[Voice] truthget October 4 2011, 04:01:08 UTC
T... teach you to learn the truth?

[Bwuuuuuh. He can't even. What.]

[Voice] sea_king_bait October 4 2011, 04:03:44 UTC
Yeah! Or, well, maybe just... take it better? Or something.

[Suddenly that doesn't sound so great.]

I don't really know if that's a skill someone can just teach you. Boost your confidence, maybe, but how you deal with it is all in your head. I'm not a specialist in that kind of thing...
