[action] 1 // with ash in your mouth

Oct 12, 2010 15:47

[There is a woman wandering around the Entrance, attempting quite valiantly to stay upright. One hand is pressed tight against a wound at her throat, fresh but no longer bleeding; considering the amount of blood coating her skin, her clothes, and even the loose, long strands of blonde hair trailing down her back, this is probably for the best.

[Hughes is doing the same, and it seems what he told Edward was right-more people from home? Ah, but the Lieutenant Colonel is injured pretty badly. Judging by Edward's expression, he didn't know what the hell happened.

But it looked pretty bad.]

Lieutenant-!

[No really, how much can one person bleed?]

HOO BOY 1/2 for you both. gunpowderreason October 12 2010, 20:17:37 UTC

[she turns with her body rather than her neck, obviously trying to avoid aggravating her injury as much as possible. She blinks once, twice, trying to clear the haze edging in along her vision.]

Edward! [automatically she scans him, up and down and back again. He doesn't look injured, no more missing limbs, everything metal still in place as far as she can tell.] You're alive, that's good--

[finally, she notices Hughes.]

[She doesn't really bother trying to hide her disgust, and fumbles (albeit somewhat weakly) for one of the weapons strapped to her everywhere, for all the good it will do.]

Only a fool tries the same trick twice.

[of course she thinks he's the homunculus who she was pretty sure the Colonel had just incinerated not a half hour ago. She stumbles a bit as she tries to release the safety on her pistol, pitching forward slightly.]

LOUDEST MOST OBNOXIOUS HEALER DUDE EVER TO THE RESCUE Y/N? grylls_bears October 12 2010, 21:13:32 UTC

[WHOA MAN THIS LADY LOOKS EXTREMELY MESSED UP

LIKE, AS BAD AS HE WAS MESSED-UP

MAYBE EVEN WORSE!!!

Showing a surprising amount of intellect considering it's him, Ryohei bounds over, gently supports her by the shoulders and squints critically into her eyes.]

EXCUSE ME, MISS!! I think you need to see a doctor!!!

[NODDING FIRMLY, then:]

--OH YEAH it's your lucky day to the extreme because I kinda am one!! Kinda!! Please sit down so I can fix you up???

[JUST ASSUMING PEOPLE KNOW HE'S THEIR NEW BEST FRIEND AND WILL LET HIM TOUCH THEM]

LMFDSF their acquaintence will be beautiful. gunpowderreason October 12 2010, 21:19:47 UTC

[WOW THIS DUDE IS LOUD. LIKE HE IS REALLY LOUD EXCUSE ME I AM HAVING A BIT OF AN ISSUE OVER HERE CAN YOU PLEASE USE YOUR INSIDE VOICE.]

[But what she actually does is flap one bloody hand in his direction with a very slight wince, and stands up a little straighter.]

Not yet. I'm looking for someone--I would like to know where I am.

So so beautiful. grylls_bears October 12 2010, 21:31:59 UTC

[EXAMINING WHAT HE CAN SEE OF HER SKIN FOR WOUNDS AND STUFF

LOOKING AROUND FOR A NICE PLACE TO SIT DOWN AND NODDING SOOTHINGLY AS SHE SPEAKS]

Yeah!! We're all looking for someone here, mostly!! This place is called Splendor, I think. It's all extremely weird but you get used to it fast!!

[He pulls out the water bottle that is now always clipped to his waist and pops it open offering some to her before realising just HOW EXTREMELY SERIOUS that wound on her neck is]

...I know you extremely want to find your buddy, Miss, but you're not gonna be able to do that real good if you die first, right?? If they're here, they heard you through that extremely handy seal-thingy, and then you're probably better to stay in the same place so they can find you, yeah? So you may as well sit down and let me take care of you to the extreme!!

[HE IS NOT ABOUT JUST PICKING YOU UP SO YOU CAN'T ESCAPE HIS LOVE EXTREME HEALING TECHNIQUE, RIZA.]

gunpowderreason October 12 2010, 21:56:33 UTC

[she's already turned away to look around at her surroundings again, but glances back when he continues speaking.]

I won't die. I have orders. [she turns all the way back to face him, keeping her hand pressed tight to her throat, looking him up and down. After a moment of consideration, she shrugs her rifle higher up her shoulder and reaches for the water with her free hand.] Thank you. Are we in Amestris? [he's dressed so oddly...] You said "we all." I suppose this means there are others who have found themselves lost as well. If there is a military outpost nearby, I would like to know.

[SADLY I WILL HAVE AN APPROPRIATE ICON IF THIS SITUATION COMES TO PASS. She's careful as she drinks, trying not to move her neck any more than she has to.]

[Ran Fan's ears perk at the sound of her voice - she had not heard from Hawkeye in some time]

Lieutenant Hawkeye? Is that you?

Re: [voice] gunpowderreason October 12 2010, 21:59:07 UTC

[SOMETHING LIKE AN HOUR LATER...]

[Hawkeye stares down at the seal in her hand, frowning at the design, and the ridiculous story she had been told about its purpose. When she had heard a familiar voice early, however, she hadn't seen anyone--but she was sure it had been that young girl.]

[Sighing, she finally decides to try.]

That's right. This is...Ran Fan?

Re: [voice] foryoungmaster October 12 2010, 22:00:39 UTC

Yes. These seals seem to let people talk with one another across a distance... it really is a strange thing.

Re: [voice] gunpowderreason October 12 2010, 22:27:03 UTC

[strange is putting it mildly, but she--somewhat grudgingly--lifts the seal slightly closer.]

Like a walkie, I suppose. It's been quite a while...I'm surprised to hear from you in this place.

[THIS IS VOICE BECAUSE I FORGOT WHERE THE GOLDEN HALL IS IN RELATION TO THE METROPOLIS DISTRICT DON'T JUDGE ME!!!]

...Lieutenant?

severely judges. gunpowderreason October 12 2010, 22:00:28 UTC

[ANOTHER FROWN AT THAT STUPID SEAL this is so illogical.]

Mr. Yao, I presume?

STOP IT D: 12thprince October 12 2010, 22:10:25 UTC

That's right!

I guess you're here too then? How are you?

[Because I can't see that whole gash across your throat thing you got going on]

S E V E R E L Y gunpowderreason October 12 2010, 22:28:11 UTC

Have you seen Colonel Mustang anywhere?

[a minor pause!]

Or perhaps a hospital?

[Walking along, exploring the area, and then-- oh goodness, oh goodness. Her hand instinctively flies to her throat, but then moves back down. She opens her mouth, ready to let out a song- but then she remembers. It won't work anymore. Regardless, she moves toward the woman, scared.]

A-Are you alright? Is there anything I can do?

gunpowderreason October 13 2010, 04:07:14 UTC

[Oh. She turns her whole body again to avoid aggravating her injury in the direction of this new person. She looks so frightened that Hawkeye feels a slight pang of fresh guilt. She looks down slightly at the state she's in. She would take off the bloody jacket if it wouldn't expose four more sidearms--doubtlessly not the most reassuring revelation to make at the moment.]

I'm looking for someone.
