So... I think I've figured out the chemical composition of seastone. It's... really complicated! The structure is like nothing I've ever seen before. Hey, I heard there was another scientist doing research on it, too. Is there any way to get access to any of his published writings? Has he ever published anything on the subject

When are you gonna need help? Happy and I were gonna take Bob fishing again. We wanna catch a kraken!

[not_hollow]

Uh, well, anytime, really. I just don't know that much about fire itself. Like, I'd need to know what your fire needs in order to exist. I mean, beyond the obvious oxygen and fuel. I'm going to try to make Dawn fireproof, so knowing what kinds of things will not burn but also not weaken your ability would be really useful.

[happyflyingcat]

Aye, a Kraken would sure be tasty... anything I can do to help?

[not_hollow]

I need as much information as I can get about Natsu's fire, so I can fireproof Dawn without making him weaker or something while on the boat.

Huh. So I guess this really is alchemy. Only instead of lead into gold...

I'm starting to think seastone would be worth a lot more than gold. Just um, don't let the World Government catch on.

[not_hollow]

Uh, yeah. Gold is pretty easy to make, actually. It's just a pure element. Hehe.

What? Why? I mean, I kinda work for them, would I get in trouble?

Do I need to get rid of this journal post, then?

[doubleppk]

Do you know how to lock or filter your posts?

I wouldn't worry too much. Garp won't care and if he likes you he'll probably make sure you don't get in any trouble. Just um... be careful who you tell about it. DON'T tell any other officers (and Garp would have to look the other way so don't tell him, he won't care if he finds out I think but don't specifically tell him) and as for published findings... Even if such a thing existed they would have been sought out and destroyed.

[not_hollow]

Err, not really. I'm still new to the network. We didn't have stuff like this in Amestris at all! It's really neat! The basics of browsing and typing weren't that hard to pick up. You can filter things? How do I learn how to do that?

What? Why would they be destroyed? I thought I heard that the guy worked for the government. Why would they pay him and then destroy his research? That makes no sense.

I'll help whenever you need me to!

[not_hollow]

Thanks, Levi! I appreciate it. If I do come up with a way to fireproof Dawn, I'm gonna need to make a HUGE reaction, and I'll feel better about having someone else there with me to help me control it. Actually, I should probably have you researching with me so we can be on the same page about what we're doing. That way our efforts will be more in synch and there will be less chance of a rebound.

[fairy_script]

Okay! This is so exciting. I'm going to get to help with alchemy!

[not_hollow]

Well, people keep telling me I should talk to you about it, so I figured you must have some knowledge of it, right?

[usedorgans]

Are you a chemist, by chance?

[not_hollow]

Sort of. I'm an alchemist! I do study a lot of chemistry, though. They're really closely related.

Uh, my name's Alphonse. What's yours?
