installing | ♨ 2 Apple Pies

So I'm back from my photoshoot! I hope you guys didn't miss me. Any juicy gossip I should catch up on since I've been gone?

[Winry is updating her journal from from the fountain in the middle of the plaza. It's a pretty warm night out, but not devastatingly hot. Just perfect for enjoying the night before heading back to her sleeping quarters.

OOC: As her mallynap effect Winry believes that she is an actress. FullMetal Alchemist is a show she acts in, and Winry is simply a character she plays. Her "real" name is Caitlin Glass (like wise she believes her castmates are also actors, and their real names correspond with their Voice Actors). Not only that, but she believes that Luceti is a small residential area that actors and actresses stay at during their off time (they can't go home because they're all still needed to work on their projects - whether they be television shows, movies, or mini-series). She will be addressing previously known CR by their actor/actress, or voice actor/actress. If you don't want her to do so, please let me know. Any new CR will be addressed by whatever name she's given.]

[He spots her at the fountain when returning from the library, a few books under his arm. He takes just a moment to adjust his glasses as he nears her.]

Winry...? [As if it could be anyone else.]

[ ...

You know what, she's just going to roll with it. She's not even 100% positive in her heart of hearts if she was married or not. Or if she had a child or not. So why not, even if she know objectively that Winry Rockbell was kidnapped, she can just keep an even tone and answer-]

You were out at a photoshoot, huh?

Mr. Swasey, we're off set. You can call me by my real name.

[Though honestly "Caitlin" isn't surprised at this. Either John Swasey forgot her name because he doesn't concern himself with a "lower level" actress like herself. Or perhaps he was being an enormous prick, and just refuses to drop character until they're finished shooting. She wouldn't put it past him. He does like to show off how he's ~so beyond~ the rest of the cast.]

Well duh. It is swimsuit season.

['Swasey'. Now that wasn't a pseudonym he's ever used. Not to mention - why would Winry know him by an alias to begin with. Hohenheim leans for a closer look and frowns.]

I'm sorry. Do I have the wrong person?

[But he's almost certain that Winry looked and sounded like this...]

True! You do have a good figure, and the weather hasn't been bad either.

You might insist on keeping this charade, but I don't intend to keep pretending I'm Winry off camera. Don't get me wrong, she's a pretty neat character, but I have my own life. And I don't choose to waste it being someone else all the time. Which is more than I can say for you.

[She is so fed up with having to deal with his attitude on set. She doesn't have many scenes with him, but she hears a lot from the grapevine, and that's enough for her.]

You're right, but at the shoot most of the backgrounds were fabricated, and done indoors. Can't have a fickle thing like weather ruining business.

[Now this is unusual. "Pretending" to be Winry? Of course, they had just gone through a thing where they all thought they were different people, but Winry was nowhere to be found in that reality, to the best of Hoho's recollection. So he just addresses her with a confused frown.]

I'm sorry, but... being me is all that I can do. If you're not Winry, then what am I supposed to call you?

[...Haha] Yeah, that's how a lot of photography's done, of course. But if you ask me, a natural shot on a beach tends to look so much better than that.

[She sighs loudly, and beings her palm to her face.]

My real name is Caitlin, thank you for forgetting again.

You're not implying you'd take a better photo than professional photographers, are you?

Why not?

[She's not really met a lot of pros but... it's a camera. She's good with a camera. How hard could it be? After all, she can make clothe---... yeah, she can. No contradiction here]

Because you lack the equipment and resources?

Details! It's about knowing the subject and having the spirit and talent. I bet you anything I could make the best photo of you anyone's ever seen!

Again... [Was her name... Caitlin? If she hadn't acknowledge the name of Winry, he would sincerely wonder if he just misremembered her name. He rubs at his brow.]

Caitlin. I'm afraid that I'm terribly confused right now. Can you tell me exactly what is going on?

[Winry! Winry's back! And he's about to fretfully demand her location and offer a pick-up, but... yeah, things are not quite right, are they? That doesn't sound like someone fresh from a kidnapping. So, cautiously, and definitely worriedly:]

"Photoshoot"?

[What the hell does that mean? And why would she care about gossip after a long absence?]

[When he spots Winry at the fountain, he's nervous. Anxious even. But he approaches her anyway and swallows.]

Winry?

Photoshoot?

Winry? Is everything okay?

[ Trisha will spot the girl at the fountain. She looks very like Sara, and Trisha already knows from Edward that Winry is around, so... ]

Winry, dear? Is that you?

[ She looks so grown up! ]

Are you mocking me? Come on, man! This isn't cool.

Oh I'd bet against that. You're good, but not that good Aya.

Yes, photoshoot. I thought everybody was made aware of it beforehand?

Don't tell me you're in on this too, Jack.

You know this isn't funny anymore.
