[In the middle of lovingly nuzzling his computer and its peripherals, Greed hits the on switch on the camera.] --thing is awesome! The best, the best, the best, this place is the BEST! [He notices the video feed is on, and is quite happy with this discovery. Grabbing the camera, he props it into place and leaning in close enough the image blurs.]

No way... No fucking way! You're lying! There's no way that you could have discovered the secret to true immortality! There's just no way!

WHEN! I mean, when I get my powers back! Because I will get them back! If those twerps can get their bodies back, then so can I! I just have to figure out how to do it, that's all!

[material_guy]

That body. It came out of that "Father" didn't it?

He's gone.

You sayin' you're gonna be able to get him out as a human and then get yer powers back? Or's the plan to get your powers back to get him out? You do got a clear plan, don'tcha?

[video]

[greenwithme]

Of course I've got a plan, moron! I'm smarter than you, remember?

This body may have come outta Father, but that's not the only way to create a Homunculus... Or did you forget that any alchemist that performs human transmutation can create a Homunculus? The military created those doll soldiers, too, right?

So, if I can get an alchemist to perform a human transmutation and create a Homunculus body, then have someone put my soul into it, I should be able to regain my powers... At the very least, I'll have a much sturdier body that's harder to kill, at any rate.

Doll soldiers? In other words, this secret of the soul's somethin' you want, too. It'll be good news for me, too, if I can get my powers in any body I move into.

Protip: Our powers are tied to our souls, not our bodies. That's why Wrath can still use his powers, even though he was inserted into a human body. Same thing for the other you. Even though he jumped bodies into the Xingese prince, he could still use your Ultimate Shield.

Thought you knew that already...

[video]

[material_guy]

That's bad news for you.

[video]

[greenwithme]

How's that?

[video]

[material_guy]

Your soul. You've got it, right? In that body you're in now.

[video]

[greenwithme]

I... I think so... I mean, it's kinda empty inside without all the other souls from the Philosopher's Stone, but I'm pretty sure it's still in there...

[video]

[material_guy]

So, you've got that soul. [Greed stretches out his arms, leans back and casually taps his research papers on the back of the couch.] That the powers are attached to. [Tap] And. [Tap]. You can't use 'em.

[He taps the papers to his own head, cocking it to the side. In the midst of a research project, even if he's not doing any of the research, he feels pretty intellectual today.] What's that tell you?

[video]

[greenwithme]

How the fuck should I know?! Maybe it's got somethin' to do with not having the Mark of the Ouroboros anymore! Wrath's still got it, he just keeps it hidden. And that Xingese prince got it when the other you jumped bodies, so...

[video]

[material_guy]

You think just getting a tattoo's gonna get your powers back? If it jumps bodies like that, don't it just mean the tattoo not carryin' over with your soul means those powers're gone, too?

[video]

[greenwithme]

I don't know! My powers are special, compared to yours... Maybe they're not as easily compatible with a human body because of the energy it takes to transmute my entire body, not just parts of it, like you and Lust...

Maybe if I could get my hands on a Philospher's Stone, that'd be enough to supply me with enough energy to attempt a full-body transmutation...?

[video]

[material_guy]

If a normal person ate 'em, wouldn't it just chip their teeth? Or come out the other end...

[video]

[greenwithme]

What the--? I'm not going to eat it, you moron! I'll just absorb it, like I did with the doll soldiers!
