Huh....

This isn't Lior. I'm not sure this is even where I got off the train.

I guess I should check in with the Colonel and get my orders...

Ah! Excuse me, but is there a military base nearby? Or, if not, a public phone I could use? I would very much appreciate it!

[OOC: Explanation is longer than the post. *dies*

Al's been Road Not Taken'd to a reality where he refused to help his brother with their mom. Ed attempted to resurrect her and died in the process, despite Al's frantic attempts to save him. Al has two automail hands which he wears gloves to hide. The rest of his body is fifteen and human. He joined the military in an attempt to find a way to bring his brother back. Personality-wise, he's mostly the same -- a little sadder and a little tougher. But he has a body! Yay!]

The youngest ever. Isn't that why you recruited me?

I see. Though what of Fullmetal? You did have talent.

Thank you, sir.

Firstly, ignore the man below.

Secondly, how is it that you became a State Alchemist.

[ironysoul.livejournal.com]

Yes, Sir.

After the accident and my surgeries you came to the Rockbell house and offered to help me locate a means of reviving my brother if I joined the military.

Then Fullmetal...

And the accident; you refer to the human transmutation?

Fullmetal?

Yes.

[snapofmyfingers.livejournal.com]

Yes, Fullmetal.

Hm. He's dead then, and you are searching for the stone?

filtered; viewable to Hawkeye

[ironysoul.livejournal.com]

...Yes. I'm searching for the Stone so I can bring back Brother.

If I'd helped him.. if I'd paid more attention, he wouldn't have died.

You can't know what the future might have been.

I should probably warn you that things are not always the same in the city as we remember them at home.

What do you mean, Sir?

Your brother.

....What about my brother, Sir?

He's possibly around here somewhere.

...What?

...Colonel-

This is a mess.

Unless Fullmetal is indisposed, he's going to see this.

private

[guardianed.livejournal.com]

No doubt.

It's obviously a curse, but I doubt that will make it any easier.

private

[snapofmyfingers.livejournal.com]

No, and after? After he's back to that body.

private

[guardianed.livejournal.com]

After is always the worst.

He'll take that badly. ...As will Edward.

private

[snapofmyfingers.livejournal.com]

Fullmetal's still pushing himself, even here, looking for an answer.

private

[guardianed.livejournal.com]

He would. Even knowing that a return home would, in all likelihood, render it all meaningless.

private

[snapofmyfingers.livejournal.com]

Never letting up...

private

[guardianed.livejournal.com]

You two are-

He's determined.

I don't think there's much we can do to make this easier.
