[000] Open Log: Month One

[ironysoul]

[Logs in this post may take place any time during the first month or so following the Promised Day. Al's symptoms will be extremely severe.



Al is most likely asleep.

If he's not asleep, he will be soon.

When he is awake he is very overloaded and hypersensitive to all sensory stimuli. This means:
- If anything touches his skin, he will be in extreme pain.
- Changes in the light/noise/scent levels will result in extreme pain.
- He's probably in pain, and therefore heavily medicated.

His medications will most likely make him... sleep.

He cannot tolerate any food or liquids well. If you attempt to feed him he will vomit.

Due to the severity of his condition, visitors will likely be restricted to family and those he requests to see. Visitation times will be short.

This log takes place in Risembool.]

[Ed shall come and visit, he will be seated and remain seated, with a crummy IV in his arm, and three days is the soonest he'll be able to visit. Bandages visible around his head, patches on his cheeks, and his left arm is wrapped in a bandage as well.]

[Winry has taken care of one Elric brother before, including all the icky things that taking care of patients entails.

She steps into the room, adjusting the curtains to make sure Al has light but not enough to bother his eyes.]

[Hohenheim will sit quietly in the corner of the room, elbows on his knees, chin resting on his folded hands. The very figure of contemplation.

He still can't believe that Ed sacrificed his ability to use alchemy to bring Al back from the Gate. No... he can believe it. Those boys began their journey together as brothers, so it's only fitting that they finish it together. Even so, Hohenheim can't help thinking that it should have been him to make the sacrifice. To put things right as a father should. Ed's bought him a little more time, yes, but not much. Hohenheim knows that he's dying: he can feel his body breaking down little by little with each passing day...

Ah... But he is grateful for Ed's sacrifice, nonetheless. Without it, he wouldn't be sitting here right now at Al's side, ready and willing to do anything that might speed his youngest son's recovery.]

[Miraculously, Naoto only suffered a few minor injuries during all the fighting. A bandage on her head and hands, that's all. She'll recover, soon enough.

Al's sleeping, of course, but it's for the best. Despite his emaciated form, she can't help but smile. He finally has his real body back. All those years of suffering and strife--it would be presumptuous to say that they've come to an end, for Al still has a long road ahead of him in terms of recovery--but it was all worth it. The brothers finally attained their goal.

Naoto has never felt more proud of those boys than she does now.]

[after finally having worked up the courage to come visit, Eris will just be knocking quietly on the door]
