That was....

I don't know.

I'm just glad it's over. I've learned that being someone you're not really isn't good for anyone, especially yourself...whether it's intentional or not.

...Thank you, Envy.

And thank you to whoever's responsible for what happened this week. Even though it might have been an accident, it helped me a lot.

No, it isn't good for one's self at all. It distorts your true being, your nature... If one good thing has come of this, it's that it has reassured us of who we really are.

[steelsoul_al]

...in my case, I think I know for the first time who I really am.

It's good to hear that some good came of last week.

I've always known, I just got a little disheartened after arriving here--this world did not seem, at first, like a place in need of a pacifistic diplomat.

I'm Relena, by the way. Relena Darlian.

Just call me Alphonse. It's nice to meet you.

[coldheartflame]

So you made up your mind? Figured it out? One of the two at least?

[steelsoul_al]

...I can't pretend I'm human anymore, Royalle. I'm not. But I can't drown out Alphonse Elric. He's too much a part of me to just toss aside. So there's a compromise, really. I'm...someone else now. But I'm still Alphonse. It's a proper name for one, and besides...I've used it for a very long time. My Greed side can't even remember his human name.

[coldheartflame]

Then you've figured it out. That's good. ...I'm glad.

Not like I did anything.

[steelsoul_al]

No, you did. You helped me a lot. And I appreciate it.

I guess it all worked out, then.
