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...]

[snacklist]

You shouldn't be so rude, Brother, you might offend someone.

[And that never ends well.]

[chemeia]

'Sall great trying to act like you can get outta it, but you're gonna end up doing what they say anyway.

[chicksdigitdude]

You like how they're doing it now?

[ Haru--- ]

[resembool_gearhead]

You're going to get in trouble like that, Ed.

[unerring]

Tch; whatever. [he's totally taking this with the seriousness it affords. yup.]

What's the worst that could happen, Al? [because bad things never happen to them, sheesh, what are you talking about!!]

[unerring]

[something is wrong with this picture

if he squints hard enough it'll come to him, right?





....yeah totally right!! distractedly:]

Yeah. Right...

[...nope still processing...]

You usually this quick to be a killjoy?

[snacklist]

Um.

[In his mind's eye, he can see Ed being shrunk down even shorter by the power of the player.]

Maybe nothing... but if you don't come to the game, then I'll be by myself.

[unerring]

[there's this nerve that twitches everytime Ed gets really annoyed...]

There's nothing going on here so don't look so smug. [yeah he's got this under control. no problem man, no problem!]

[unerring]

Don't make that face... It's nothing. Just hot air. [on the player's part, not his, of course!]

[resembool_gearhead]

Nothing? You've said that before and you always get into some sort of trouble.

1/2

[unerring]

[--gghk]

[chicksdigitdude]

Really? Cause it looks like they're making you talk to me.

Having one of these mun thingies ain't so bad you know.

[chemeia]

[ he's reacting a lot better than most guy versions she meets. ]

Nah, just being pragmatic. Hell, you could try. And you might get lucky too.

[unerring]

[no there's a terrible flaw in his plan HOW HAS THIS HAPPENED ALREADY...]

...There's no way I'd leave you behind. [or let Al go without him? what would this be? :(]

[snacklist]

I know, Brother.

[He reaches out and lays a hand on Ed's shoulder.]

Whatever's there, we can face it together.

[unerring]

[it'll come to him..................... just

wait for it]

Luck? [he'll resist a scoff.] I like to rely on a little ingenuity, instead.

Plus, not doing something just 'cause someone said it wasn't possible doesn't sound like me either. [no really what is it he just can't put his finger on it........]

[unerring]

Ever think I was talking to you because I wanted to? [though you're making him change his mind about that geez GEEZ...]

Not seeing the upside, but thanks for the two cents I didn't ask for.

[unerring]

Sh-- sheesh, not always! Gimme a break!

[no it pretty much is always isn't it......]

[chicksdigitdude]

With that look on your face? Not likely.

Unless you're a true gentleman, then I'm flattered.


I'm telling you to lighten up, bonehead. Upsides aren't immediate.

[unerring]

[Ed is nodding. of course; there's no doubt in his mind that they'd make it through -- especially together, but...]

Ugh... This is just a huge waste! [...doesn't mean he can't whine about it

incessantly. he sure doesn't like being forced into this, either.] We don't have time for distractions...

[chemeia]

[ okay, now she's smirking just a bit because this is kinda amusing. and really, part of her can't blame him when she had the same mindset when she was about his age. ]

Doesn't sound like you, huh? Well, can't really argue with that. When I was younger, 'fsome someone told me not to do something, I'd probably do it anyway. 'Cept nowadays I try not to let my pride keep me from focusing on more important things.

[snacklist]

[He agrees on that part at least, he doesn't want to delay their efforts, and his shoulders sag for a moment with a sad little clank. But it only lasts a second before he's lifting his head with determination and optimism!]

Maybe we'll find something useful there, Brother. Or find another way to restore our original bodies.

[unerring]

Yeah? Well, I'm not looking for consolations.

[chicksdigitdude]

You were looking for a fight, but you didn't want one'a those either.



Where ya' going?

[unerring]

[sad clank is sad...

Ed is glancing towards Al at the sound of his helmet lifting, and he doesn't need to see his brother's expression to know what kind of face he'd be making if he could. heh... he knuckles the chest cavity of the armor with a grin.]

Hey, now you're onto something! A new world has different rules, right? Maybe there's a new way we haven't considered before!
