002 → Terrible Feelings
[ Winry has been coping pretty well with her new environment. Some mornings still feel strange, when she wakes up in a house that isn't hers, but she's learning to adapt. She's even gotten into the hang of school and sometimes pays attention.
But one thing is bothering her. There's one thing about Mayfield that's been tugging at her worse than anything. She's been doing her best to ignore it and logic her way out of it but everyday is a new reminder. ]

Hey... this is only my second time using the phone like this, so sorry if I mess up... I was wondering... Someone from home, that I know is... is dead, is here now... I was wondering how often that sort of thing happened and... and also... [ she takes a deep breath ] It's stupid, but I think... I think I'm jealous. It's really so dumb... But I wish... I wish my parents could come back too.
I thought I'd gotten over this. It's wrong of me to wish the dead could come back, I know that, but... [ Winry pauses, realizing that she has started rambling. The rambles are going in circles and she's just being a bother at this point. ] Sorry, I guess this was silly to talk about. I think what I want to know is... if someone can scold me for being jealous of my friends for having their mom back when I don't have mine...
ACTION → high school ]
[ Despite the depressing phonecall, Winry is mostly in high spirits when she attends school that day. When lunchtime comes around she'll be actively looking to sit with new people and make friends, so don't be surprised if she approaches you. ]
Hey there! Is this seat taken?
ACTION → christmas tree ]
[ And after school, after going to buy some extra food to store away at the house, Winry will stop by the giant Christmas tree. It's her first time celebrating Christmas, let alone seeing such a giant tree covered in lights, so she's just going to stand there to stare. ]
I never knew lights could come in so many colours... [ She tilts her head thoughtfully. ] I wonder if I could use this technology on automail somehow...? An automail rainbow flashlight...? ... I'd make that just to see Ed walk around like a Christmas tree. [ she snickers. ]
