Edward walked in from the cold, looking grumpy as usual. Of course, it was cold outside, and he and the cold were never good friends. "At least it hasn't snowed yet," he muttered, glad to be in the warm house. After all, a running oven and other heating elements was always a good thing in Ed's eyes.

Oh, and as for his gift, he brought over this bottle that was dusty, but unbroken. It was wine for the adults, in which he was certain they'd appreciate. "Where.. do I put this?"

[2ndlt_jeanhavoc]

Jean was glad someone finally felt comfortable enough with him and his home to let themselves in on an open invitation day, and who better to display it than Edward Elric. He sauntered on over to Edward when he came in from the cold and gave him a fond if loose salute.
His eyes turned down to the bottle in Edward's hand and he chuckled, "Just anywhere on the table over by one of the plates of turkey. That's a nice gesture, Boss, Thanks. Stove's still on if you wanna relax by that, I can grab you a chair?"

[saintedsinner]

"Thanks, man," he muttered with a grin, heading on over to the stove. In spite of his harsh reservations about Havoc's woman habits, he genuinely liked the guy. It was when Winry was mentioned in the same sentence as Havoc that he flipped a lid. And he didn't want to see Havoc's heart get broken, especially when Ed knew what was going to happen in the future.

"Wow, you went all out for this thing!" Ed's voice faded slightly as he moved over to the kitchen, seeking out the warmth of the oven. "Food smells great."

This "Chair" that Jean mentioned had been a hand fashioned one, but with another smile Jean brought the chair over and set it down near to the stove.

He shrugged his shoulders, "I had a lot of help. Ai did all the cookin' and Leon's been helpin' me with the house and other sorts. Gives me time to be able to do handy crafts."

He wasn't entirely certain about coming to Jean's gathering, but to ignore it completely wouldn't be a good thing. He was tired though - after the week's event he'd been drained of energy, but when he arrived at Jean's house with a gentle knock on the door he shoved his hands in his pockets, trying to ease a smile across his face.

[ladysummonr]

Yuna stopped by the house, her white vest and pants torn up quite a bit. She'd managed to escape the blasted giant turkeys (and figured most everyone else had, as well), and happened to stumble upon the house which was bustling with lots of noise and some laughter here and there-- and wait, who was that by the door? She recognized that face from a long PCD conversation...

"Roy!" she walked over, just a little winded, and gave him a smile. "Hey! Looks like we finally get to meet in person." She gave a nod, then looked at the house curiously. "Friend of yours?"

[general_mustang]

He hadn't anticipated an interception at the door, so when he heard his name his expression was a little surprised. The moment he realised exactly who it was though, his face easily broke into a smile he'd been so awkwardly schooling.

Instantly, he was hold out his hand to shake Yuna's.

"Seems we do." He chuckled, before nodding toward the door. "A friend of mine from home is hosting a gathering. How hungry are you?"

[2ndlt_jeanhavoc]

Jean raised his eyebrow to yet another knock at his door, people were so polite. But he figured He'd know that "come get the door now" knock anywhere. Excusing himself from a conversation Havoc moved over and opened the door to see Yuna and his Colonel standing right there.

"Colonel!" he said, rather excitedly at that. He was really hoping that Roy would show up, "You brought a date I see? Come in come in, you'll freeze out there."

Lee wiped his forehead, breathing a little harder, as he stopped at Havoc's door. He had jogged the last bit of distance, unsure if he was late or not. He stepped up to knock gently, shifting the basket he had brought with things in it, Ai might be cooking, but that was no reason for her to cook everything by herself.

[2ndlt_jeanhavoc]

Once again the door echoed that familiar sound that had started a trend with Jean smiling every time it happened. Each time he opened the door someone's smiling face was there and that's what made everything worth it.

He moved on over, opening the door once more to spy who was there and stand in the way of course in case he had to do something drastic. Instead! His only weapon was his devilishly handsome smile, "Lee! You made it..! C'mon in - 'ey you didn't have to bring anything you're supposed t'be our guest."

[enviousin]

Lee returned the smile, lifting the basket a bit when he says he didn't need to bring anything... he gave his only coat to Himura-san, so he's wearing a thick sweater instead, a little cold, but not drastically so, laughing.

"Maybe, but think of this as thanks to you and Ai for all of this. It's just mostly breads for people to snack on while we wait and mingle."

He tugs the little towel covering the basket aside to show the pumpkin bread and banana bread, he had a hell of a time with everything that's happened to find the ingredients, but he managed to scrap up enough.

[2ndlt_jeanhavoc]

Jean's truly touched by Lee's generosity and with him lifting things that means his arm is going well too. That made Jean feel a little better, not much but a little bit.

He whistled and was quite impressed by what Lee showed off, that must have not been an easy thing to get going, "That's more than enough thanks. Now we're gonna have to owe ya some back."

He urged Lee inside the house so he could close the door and keep the heat in, but not before a quick look around, "Just set it there on the table and Ai'll come along and fix it up. She's doing a wonderful job." He eyed Lee a little bit, the guy's walking around in autumn attire, "Y'know I have a sweater's kinda small for me. Wanna give it a try? You can see my girls while I dig it out."
