[14 Formulae]

[ironysoul]

I guess that happens a lot around here? Miss Uta told me we get a weekend like that once a month... It wasn't as bad as some of the other curses for me I mean but I didn't like it anyway. It was really chaotic.

Private to Tohru
I didn't want to bother you during the curse and things were really bad here but maybe we could meet sometime and talk about the animal shelter? If you're still interested, I mean, I don't want to pressure you!

Private to Winry
Are you feeling any better?

Private to Ed
Hey, Brother, I was reading a lot in the guide about the deities and it says they'll make trades or swaps for things you want and -- it's Equivalent Exchange. I think this place is just like home.

Maybe -- maybe if we know that we can find a way out for you and me and Winry and the Colonel.

I mean I'm sure you thought of this and I'm sure the Colonel tried too but there has to be something we can do.

That's not too bad!

[Hunny shakes his head.]

No, Kao-chan stays here too! And Tianzi-chan! There used to be the rest of my friends too but they went back home. Ne, you're not on your own either, are you?! You mentioned your brother?

[ironysoul.livejournal.com]

I've got my brother. And my best friend Winry is here, too. So it's not so bad. I'm glad you're not alone, though!

[wantscakie.livejournal.com]

That's good! I wonder how Chika-chan is...he's my little brother! I haven't seen him for so long now!

But I'm glad I have any friends at all here, not everyone does!

[ironysoul.livejournal.com]

It's very sad to be separated from your brother.

[Al "eats" half the cake whole. Pooooor Hunny.]

That must be very lonely.

[wantscakie.livejournal.com]

I don't see him very much at home either, because he's always training!

[Hunny cuts himself more cake and offers another slice to Al]

Uh huh. I hope everyone here manages to at least make one friend!

[ironysoul.livejournal.com]

I bet they will! Making friends isn't hard in this place.

[Al accepts the cake graciously. I mean, even Kimblee made friends here, so clearly it's doable.]

[wantscakie.livejournal.com]

It's not! Lots of people here are very nice! Like you, Al-san!

[Once he finished his second slice of cake, he leans over to pick up Bun-bun to cuddle.]

Do you like bunnies too?!

[ironysoul.livejournal.com]

I like kitties best, but I like bunnies too!

[One of his earliest memories was holding a baby bunny. He and Ed had found the burrow and Mom had showed them how to feed the babies until they grew up.

Of course, there are other memories involving bunnies and a snare and a fire but he's not gonna tell those ones to Hunny.]

[wantscakie.livejournal.com]

Kitties are cute as well! We have two! I think they're in Kao-chan's room right now. Do you have any?

[Bun-bun snuffles his nose at some remaining cake crumbs.]

[ironysoul.livejournal.com]

Well, I run an animal shelter. So they're not really mine.

[Al offers one big hand to Bun-Bun, wiggling his fingers to entice the creature.]

[wantscakie.livejournal.com]

Really?! That's a great idea! Can I help?

[Bun-bun walks trustingly towards Al's hand and twitches his nose a little. Then he tries hopping onto it.]

[ironysoul.livejournal.com]

[Awww! Al holds his hand steady. Landing pad for the bunny!]

We'd love your help, Hunny. It's hard work taking care of all the kitties.

[wantscakie.livejournal.com]

Okay! I'm good at taking care of kitties!

[And the bunny lands safely! He makes himself at home on Al's hand.]

[ironysoul.livejournal.com]

[Awww, bunny! Al carefully lifts Bun-Bun to eye level to touch noses, wishing -- not for the first time -- that he could feel the fur and the tickling whiskers.]

I'm sure you are! That's great!
