THIRTY-ONE : Burn burn the hate that gets you through

[wristsniper]

[GREETINGS, Mayfield! Olivier has awakened quite early on the first of August, despite having killed a man rather cruelly the day before (yes we moved the date). It doesn't seem to bother her. Very discreetly, she has removed the offending bloodstains from the walls, covered those on the carpet, and turned over the couch cushions

....What's that smell, Majo-- [Pausing when he gets a better look at her as he enters the kitchen. He'd just come back after work to grab a few more things to take to Al's since he was intending to stay there for a couple of days with his brother being sick and all.]

....What happened?

[Just tugging this new oriental rug into place...]

You know what it is, Fullmetal.

Crimson. He had to be dealt with.

[Eyeing said rug suspiciously when she explains, eyes widen slightly before he frowns and purses his lips.]

...."Dealt with"?

He needed to be taught a lesson. I'm sick of his threats, and had Eirin not been here, he would have caused me to lose the use of my hands.

[braided_icarus]

I know...I know, but that is not even an eye for an eye. Even if it is Crimson and he's a bastard.

Re: IN PERSON~

[wristsniper]

I never cared about it being fair, Fullmetal. I care about getting my point across.

IN PERSON~

[braided_icarus]

Even if that means killing?

[Because no matter how much death he sees here, he never agrees with killing. Mayfield has not changed that much, if anything, only intensified his desire to get through without killing.]

I'm a soldier, Fullmetal. Do you think I don't know the value of a life?

IN PERSON~

[braided_icarus]

I know that. But still--I couldn't...Not unless it was an accident in self defense, if even then.

[He's still so soft. And he knows it. But, they had managed to get this far, right? So maybe they could pull through, without staining their hands anymore then they already were.]

I killed him, and I will kill him again and again if I must. It's none of your business, and it's not on your hands.

[GLARING at you is not that difficult, Ed.]

Re: IN PERSON~

[braided_icarus]

I know it's not on my hands, and I know it's....Kimbley, but still. I-....if you get him pissed enough and you know he has regained his alchemy, Major General. If he comes here, after the two of us? Involves others close to us who really had nothing to do with it?

[Staring right back, Olivia. One thing he will not accept under any circumstances - innocent civilian involvement.]

IN PERSON~

[wristsniper]

If he involves others, then more than just I will kill him. And none of us in this home are innocent. We've all killed or harmed others before, even Dist.

If you don't want people involved, don't bring them here. Until I find another base of operations, this is my stronghold. My fortress.

IN PERSON~

[braided_icarus]

....He better not involve anyone else, just to get to us.

At this rate, Al might be safer where he is, for now. At least until that witch regains her powers. Hopefully she doesn't know Al and I are friends with Maka yet.

IN PERSON~

[wristsniper]

I'll defend you, if it's my fault. But I'll warn you now; if you know he's coming, take care of yourselves. I don't have time to babysit.

...What the hell have you two gotten into this time?

Re: IN PERSON~

[braided_icarus]

Right. Thanks, and of course you know I will.

....A-ah, well, Maka is one of my--our friends here, and since she is apparently the one that took down Arachne back in their home world...I'm doubting she would be too happy Maka is here. If she found out Al and I were friends with her she could try use us against her or something. If she finds out.

...In other words, it's someone else's problem.
