Hello? I'd like to personally speak with all the friends and "guardians" of Elicia Hughes. It's very important, and I would rather speak in person. Meet me on the bridge passed houses thirty one and thirty three.

Everyone else? What are your favorite dinner recipes? I need to spice up my cooking, and sometimes cookbooks just won't do it.

[And those who will come to meet her shall see her standing in the middle of the bridge looking over the side. She's not alone, though. Not too far off will be one alchemist around to make sure everything is okay.

[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.]

[Winry will keep quiet, and listen for Sanji's response.]

[concasse]

[Sanji initially stands stern at Edward's approach, no more irritated than the other but wary all the same - but it's clear by his loosened stance towards the end that whatever the alchemist said, it was enough to smooth over some of his concerns.]

Alright. I'll put faith in this being the right decision for her.

I don't know what else we can do. What happened is a result of us not being careful enough.

[He glances over at Winry. One of them should have been there to protect her, right? That's what guardians are for. They need to make up for that failure.]

[Winry can't help but feel lacking. She wasn't even near the house when this happened- And that's the problem. She can't just be away and assume Elicia's taken care of. Before she goes to her "work" at the smithy she must make sure Elicia is definitely safe before doing anything else.]

And we will do whatever is in out power to make sure it doesn't happen again.
