Oh, I love the voices you have for both these characters. Beautifully done!

YAYS. :D

Even though I've always understood Ed, Al, and Winry's feelings toward guns, I also thought that it was entirely possible that they would have to end up using them in a crisis.

I like how Winry is able to surprise Riza with her strength, which again, makes sense as you descibed it. :)

Thanks so much for this!

Hey, Winry did better than I did my first time holding a gun (in that she hit the target at all). I really enjoyed Riza admitting she'd underestimated Winry's strength (girl's gotta have some biceps) and also how she has an idealistic thought almost despite herself. Also Winry thinking that she'll need more lessons (of course she doesn't become an expert in a week). Nicely done.

Really good voices here, I could hear both Winry and Riza in my mind. I like that Riza's apartment is still messy, no matter where she is.

I love that Winry's uncertain and unsure that Riza will agree to help her but she still takes the chance to make herself stronger. Well done.
