...kind of lost. The General will murder me for missing the train...

...

...Can anyone tell me where I am? [holds up state alchemist watch] I'm Lieutenant Colonel Edward Elric. Any and all pertinent information will be rewarded accordingly.

Another Edward...if I see so many of them my imagination might start to get ahead of itself...

I think you're in a City called Central. That's what everyone around here's been saying. Myself, I'm Alfons Heiderich. It's a pleasure to meet you.

((I'll have to admit, poor Girl!Hei's a bit freaked out by the...the PROFESSIONAL Ed that she's seeing here))

[corrupted_steel]

[...stares for a good ten seconds before coughing abruptly.]

Another...Edward?

This isn't quite like the Central I know, for one thing, it's much too...quiet. A pleasure to meet you too, Alfons.

...

[continues staring unabashedly. what the hell, she looks like his brother. with boobs.]

[gotothestars]

*Noting the staring, Alfons flushes a bit, but still keeps her face even.*

Yes. As far as I can gather, different versions of various people from different worlds have all gathered in one spot...though for what reason, I'm not too sure. The most I can think of is that it's a rip in time and space...maybe a dimensional rift was opened that caused all of us, from parallel dimensions (which would explain why we were all the same people, just with different faces and different lives and abilities)...it's still a farfetched theory, but...

That is true. It's probably Central, but another Central...

...

I'm not making much sense, am I?

A-And ah...

*She shifts uncomfortably, twisting some of her shoulderblade-length hair between one of her fingers. This staring was making her horribly nervous.*

I-Is there something on my face?

[corrupted_steel]

That doesn't even make sense, Miss Alfons. Another Central? Parallel worlds? That is insane.

[blinks twice before realizing she's talking to him again]

You. You just...you look like someone I know. But I've never met you before. And. Uh. There is nothing, uh, wrong with your face, I mean - not that I meant that -

...

...you're okay.

[otouto_al]

I think we all want to know that.....

...nii-san.

[corrupted_steel]

...

I'm hallucinating.

You're supposed to be dead. I haven't even gotten your body back yet.

[otouto_al]

*Shivers*

That-that's because that's not, I mean I'm not.....

[corrupted_steel]

...

...tell me I'm dreaming. I saw the blood seal break in half. You can't be here.

[chibiningen]

...I don't fucking BELIEVE this.

[corrupted_steel]

...so don't believe it, it is not my problem.

[nemoubliepas]

Sind Sie verloren, auch?

[corrupted_steel]

...is that English?

[nemoubliepas]

...nein. Ist Deutsche.

Tut mir leid...mein Englisch ist nicht very gut...

[corrupted_steel]

...

I gather that it is not. From your sentence structure it is this...Deutsche. Why the hell are you here if you can't even -

Maybe...you could...try sign language? Or something like that. I'm afraid I don't understand you. [makes a vague finger-wiggling motion]

[nearerthesun]

...lieutenant colonel? Who do you think you're kidding?

[corrupted_steel]

No-one. I'm even up for a promotion if I just haven't gotten stuck in this...place.

Experience, kid, experience.

[nearerthesun]

This "place" is Central. How can you be a lieutenant colonel and not even know that?

[corrupted_steel]

Central isn't overflowing with people who have my face. Unless someone managed to make multiple Envies, which would be a problem.

...

[stares.] Envy, are you just dicking around with me or are you really another Edward?
