[Edward has kept quiet for the most part, just there for back-up in case any of Elicia's so-called "friends" kick up a fuss about what Winry's saying, but if his skills are being called into question, he needs to step in. Thus:]

Hey.

[He approaches with a determined expression - he's not angry, he knows (even if he wouldn't admit it) that he doesn't look like much - and sets a hand on Winry's shoulder. They might be young, but they're all Elicia's got from home now.]

If someone starts a fight that I can't handle, then they'll just be proving to everyone that they're not fit to be around Elicia. Either way, we're not looking for some kind of turf war here. We just want to protect a little girl.

[If people have trouble swallowing that concept, well. He'll give them some trouble.]
