Fifth Report - I Bet You Thought I Forgot, Yuri

[guy_in_armor]

You know Yuri, I'm a little disappointed in you. I hope you honestly didn't believe I'd forget your birthday last week. I was originally planning on posting an embarrassing picture, but in the end, I figured I'd just go with something a bit more fun. Plus, this one includes some of our friends here at Brawl. I couldn't really resist. Also, in

Both of those images are great.

Hey, Flynn. Can I ask you something?

[automailmaker]

Ahaha, um. Not something I'd dicuss in public.

Really? How so?

[guy_in_armor]

Oh. I see. I beg your pardon then, I won't press any further. Unless you wish to make the thread private?

Well, the work of a Commandant is incredibly tiring to say the least.

[automailmaker]

Well... sure. If you'd like to listen.

Well, good luck with that.

Of course, it would be my pleasure.

What's troubling you?

Re: /Private to Winry

[automailmaker]

Well, I had a fight with a man named Kratos Aurion the other day.

Re: /Private to Winry

[guy_in_armor]

Oh, I know Kratos.

What happened?

Re: /Private to Winry

[automailmaker]

Well, we argued over something I'm not sure it would be right for me to explain to you, but then his son Lloyd stood up for me.
Seeing that I was upset Lloyd came to visit me and-- And he took an unscheduled train. He turned into a two year old and was almost eaten by a cow.

I just... feel really guilty over a lot of things concerning Lloyd and his father, and I can't shake it.

...

Almost eaten by a cow?

Re: /Private to Winry

[automailmaker]

Yeah, well. It was dark. And the cow thought Lloyd's hair was grass...

Re: /Private to Winry

[guy_in_armor]

That's...I don't even have words.

However, you shouldn't feel guilty. You were doing your best for a friend, even if it didn't work out the way you intended. The thought itself was a noble one.

The poor boy was scared half to death. I think his dad wants me dead.

Every time I try to help I just... screw it up even more. I think I should just give up.

Re: /Private to Winry

[guy_in_armor]

If that's the case, I will protect you.

But if it truly matters to you, you should never give up on a cause.

Re: /Private to Winry

[automailmaker]

You're too kind, really.

I don't want to! But... I can't help but feel I'm just making it worse.

Re: /Private to Winry

[guy_in_armor]

It would be my honor. You're a good friend.

Sometimes things have to get worse before they can get better.

Re: /Private to Winry

[automailmaker]

Thanks, Flynn. I needed that reassurance.
