re: au musebox shenanigans
Seriously? You're planning a whole storyline based off this crap? And now you're trying to drag other people into it besides Al's mun.
You're batshit, lady.
I liked the stuff where I beat the crap up Lelouch and Light better. Supposed to be having a drink with Kallen and Suzaku, y'know.

I only get paids if they're in games, I have 39 journals I actually use......
Al would have been carted off to some orphanage probably.
[He's really thinking about this now. A lot of what he knew about the Middle class was based on books, he couldn't predict anything for sure.
Still. He remembers that she's there - barely.] Were you-?
i don't have that many, fortunately sob
[ She says it as she jerks up her head, preparing to glare at the other boy before remembering that's she's still talking to herself, even if this version is male. She won't worry about comments about how a girl can take care of herself or pity because this is Ed and she knows herself too well, despite the differences.
So, giving an apologetic look before glancing away, she repeats herself but in a softer tone. ]
Was I...? What?
yeah I'm crazy, I don't give up....
And honestly, he's just... puzzled. What just happened there?
Quietly] Were you sent to an orphanage?
The lower class, you'd just be on your own... No one would care. [He doesn't even know if William made it alive] but for Al they would have found someone to take care of him- wouldn't they...?
[No, this is not a personal insult. He doesn't think she's inferior because she's female, they're just from different worlds. In his world ten is not old enough to be on your own.
It's almost like he's hoping her answer will relieve some of his fear on the matter, more than anything else.]
nothing wrong with that at all c:
No, we lived together. Mom... left us some money. We lived with some friends for a while, and then with our teacher.
After that— [ A beat. It would probably be best if she avoided the year she and Al had tried to resurrect their mom altogether. ]
I joined the military. As a State Alchemist. That's when I was twelve. 'Cause of my status, they couldn't take Al from me. So we lived on our own.
no subject
He can't imagine living with a teacher, but he lets that one slide for now.]
Twelve-? [He quirks an eyebrow at that.] And I get crap for being sixteen.
[A pause. He did notice that beat, but part of him chalks it up to her thinking no one would believe she was in the military more than- censoring out a year of her life.]
At least you two had each other.
no subject
[ Any other time, she might have been smirking with arrogance and pride. But not this time. She does manage the slightest of smiles. ]
At least we had each other.
