[Maka woke up at the bright crack of noon, which in and of itself indicated something was very, very off about her. Oh, she knew what was happening--this had happened before, though it felt ever so slightly different this time. The fact of the matter was that she did not care one bit; well, that wasn't entirely true, but the tiny, tiny voice

That doesn't necessarily seem like a healthy attitude, ma'am.

[hit_me_haaarder]

I'll keep that in mind, mom.

[rapier_ex]

Mom?! I'm a bit young to be anyone's mother, don't you think?

[hit_me_haaarder]

Teenage pregnancy is a growing epidemic.

this seems like a good enough time as any for them to finally meet

[Unfortunately, Giriko doesn't really know the difference between normal!Maka and this Maka, other than the one he fought before didn't put up much of a fight.

Who knows, perhaps today would be different.

There's a presence behind you, Maka, and hot breath on your neck.]

I think this will end well!

[hit_me_haaarder]

Someone doesn't brush their teeeeeeth~

CLEARLY

[ladysawsaw]

[YEP IT'S YOU. UH. WHATEVER YOUR NAME IS.

Still, loom loom breathe breathe you may or may not notice a large gloved hand trying to close in and grab your head.]

Oi, what's this? Shit, finally! You gonna show me a good time, or are you gonna just lie there like a cold fish again?!

[hit_me_haaarder]

[She's not even gonna try to dodge the gloved hand.]

Sorry, lady, but I don't think I'm into chicks. I hate men, though, but that's neither here nor there. Besides, I couldn't care less about anyone besides me having a good time!

WINDOWSILL, more specficially, BEHIND YOU

[plantenough]

[Oh, not!daughter appears to have misplaced her marbles. How entertaining.]

Seeing things from a different perspective today, are we? [In the most casual of casual tones, like she's commenting on the weather.]

[hit_me_haaarder]

Yeah, I guess you could say that.

[plantenough]

I'm sure everyone outside appreciates you... sharing.

I do hope you've thought this through? It seems like an awfully large commitment to disregard everyone and everything you care about.

[hit_me_haaarder]

Yeah, yeah, yeah! I thought about it nice and hard and long!

[braided_icarus]

Oi. Maka.....

[hit_me_haaarder]

Ehehehe. Ed. You should know...you should know pretty well, right? The pain of losing someone...

How annoying is it, eh? If your brother were stronger, if Winry were an alchemist--things would be so much easier, right, right? But, nope! They're both weak. And that makes your life harder and more miserable--just look at those limbs of yours.

So, you understand, right? Right? Alone, in your own embrace--that's the only way to avoid pain and fear, and how to shed useless weight like friends and love.

[braided_icarus]

What are you talking about? Yeah, sometimes to some extent friends and family can be a weakness, but they are also the reason I got as far as I have. Because of their support and their help through everything. Even if being with them means some degree of pain and fear and weakness, it's worth that.

[hit_me_haaarder]

Re-he-he-heeeeally? No arm, no leg, stuck in a stupid town, having to keep an eye on them--yeah, you've got real far 'cause of 'em.

Buuut, we're not gonna get anywhere, huh? I was thinkin' a frustrated nerd as big as I am would understand, but you're just as stubborn as me. But here, now, I figured it out and I feel good. With no fear, there's nothing bad! Get it?!
