voice test....!!

[unerring]

Yeah, yeah, whatever. Like I'm gonna get hyped up over this of all things? [can you smell the apathy? Ed is being so thorough in making sure everyone is aware how little he cares, because that's sure how to prove you don't give a shit!!!1 yeah. that's how it goes.]

Do me a favor and run this by me again, 'cause I'm pretty sure I missed the part of this little 'game' scenario that says I've got to do a damn thing you say. [like go to said game, for example...]

[chemeia]

You hafta answer the question first. Need all the data, y'know?

[unerring]

Tch. [okay he's not going to walk head-first into that one by giving her the answer she wants, so...!!]

There's someone I gotta protect. Simple as that.

[chemeia]

Al'll just call you an idiot for saying something like that. No matter how many times he's gotta be told not to call his older sibling an idiot. He'd probably also say you should be polite to your mun or some crap like that, but I'm all for ignoring that part.

[unerring]

[wait here comes that squint again...]

How'd you know I was talking about--

[oh no is it finally dawning on him

FINALLY

THIS FAR INTO THE CONVERSATION]

[chemeia]

[ GOOD JOB, ED. he gets the biggest eyeroll she can manage. ]

That's gotta be a record. Maybe Al's right.

[unerring]

woeiurlaks--

sorry Ed isn't here right now please leave a message in his stupid fat gaping mouth

apparently pointing isn't rude either so enjoy that finger in your face god why are you associating with this loser]

[chemeia]

[ considering that was pretty much her reaction the first time she met a male version of herself, she'll let it slide.

but not without an exasperated sigh, a frustrated rub of her head, and then placing both hands firmly on her hips. ]

Geeze, would you calm down already?

[unerring]

Y-- YOU'RE, A--

[nope still

...having a moment, here, just. bear with him...]

[chemeia]

Girl? Yeah, and so what? So's Winry. And the Lieutenant. And Teacher. And General Armstrong. Why's it such a big deal that I'm a girl?!

[unerring]

[clearly there's a rational, logical explanation for this. so, Ed should analyze the situation, figure out what's happened and approach it with a similar vein of--]

The-- The HELL is going on here?!

[...well, no one could accuse him of possessing too much finesse at times like these.]

[chemeia]

[ oh. oh no he didn't. it's not supposed to go like this. why are boys so stupid?!

clearly there is only way to handle this... ]

DAMMIT, STOP YELLING!

[unerring]

Then START EXPLAINING! What the hell is going on with you?!

[chemeia]

I'm a GIRL! I've always BEEN a girl! I was BORN a girl! Our lives are the same except I was just born this way!

[unerring]

Th-- That's just--

--You CAN'T be--

...I'm a--

[yes starting forty times will clearly get the words out, Ed.]

[chemeia]

Why not? I can fight and do alchemy just as well as you can.

[unerring]

There's no way. There's just no way!

This is some kind of trick, right? There's no way our lives can be some kind of... parallel without only that detail being different!

[chemeia]

[ slaps her hands together, a crackle of energy sparking between her palms before she slides her left arm over her right. the transmutation that results alters her automail into the signature armblade. ]

Wanna test that theory?

[unerring]

[oho. he has to admit-- it's a pretty nice show.

the cocky grin goes here, followed up by-- what else?-- a clap that mirrors that of his apparent gender!swapped doppelganger.]

If you are who you say you are, you already know the answer, don't you?

[chemeia]

[ the cocky grin is the same as the one on her lips, naturally, and she shifts into a fighting stance. one that's probably the same as what he'd might take. ]

Al keeps saying I should be more ladylike, so I thought I'd check first.

[ not that she's really much ladylike. at all. ]

[unerring]

Then now might be a good time to tell ya...

[he's sliding his hand over the automail with the familiar dance of sparks, and his posture nearly matches hers to a T.]

I'm not above hitting a-- [in he comes, charging in a rush] --girl!

[chemeia]

[ it's like sparring with Al, but just a bit different. the aim isn't downwards because they're roughly the same height, so adjusting takes a split-second. whirling on her feet, her automail arm comes up to block any blows sent her way. ]

That's good, 'cause it'd be a pity to kick your ass without much of a fight!

[ someone should probably step in before they hurt each other. and of course, the irony of her fighting herself (even if that other self is male) hasn't quite sunk in yet. ]

jacking so hard. 8D

[alkahestry]

[Seriously? SERIOUSLY? He turns his back for two seconds!]

Do I have to separate you two?

1/2

[unerring]

[metal clashes against metal, and just as Ed was leaning in to give what was DOUBTLESSLY the single most witty and scathing retort ever--]

2/2

[unerring]

[.......

suddenly an alphonse





no his mojo.....................]

[chemeia]

[ oh.

oh, it's Al.

....so much for preparing her next attack.

they're both in trouble now, aren't they?

hopping away and holding up both hands, she grimaces.

look! look, she's being good, really! ]

H-He started it!
