You really think so?

[ex_affability656]

Well, sure. If you want something enough to wish for it, it's bound to happen. Usually because you make it happen.

[godbent]

These are pure and honest desires, Winry.

[installing]

I doubt everyone would agree with you.

[installing]

I guess you're right again, Mr. Hughes. I should have thought of that.

[ex_affability656]

Well, I don't want to keep you from your rest. Should I leave the cake with you?

[installing]

Yes. Again, thank you very much.

[godbent]

Wanna bet? I'll poll Luceti!

[installing]

Do it.

[godbent]

Fine, I will!

[GLARING NURSE :I

However, Ed's birthday, Neku's, getting sick herself, Christmas, New Years, and Mikuru showing up will distract her from this]

[installing]

Fine. [Finishing off tea now.]

[ex_affability656]

It's the least I can do. [He sets the cake down on the dresser. Enjoy it!] I hope you start feeling better soon.

[godbent]

Fine.

[PUFFING OUT HER CHEEKS.

Perfect birthday?? amirite]

[After the rather awkward meeting with Ling, Edward leaves the care package with Ran Fan and follows Winry out of the apartment. He's quiet for the moment, busily worrying about what to do about Ling, how to deal with this little problem, and wondering whether or not Hohenheim can help. This is definitely an unexpected issue, and he's really hates feeling helpless about it.

At least Greed had been easier to talk to...]

[Action]

[installing]

[She's quiet for a while as they walk, but questions keep coming up and she can't help thinking about them. Especially the ones about Hohenheim.]

Hey, Ed?

[Action]

[automailed]

[His voice is distracted when he responds, still kind of lost in thought.]

Hm?

[Action]

[installing]

Hohenheim- He's not a homunculus, is he?

[Action]

[automailed]

[That makes Edward pause in his step, lifting his chin and, after a moment, glancing over at her. He then looks away again, stuffing his hands awkwardly into his pockets.]

...No. Homunculus can't have kids.

[Action]

[installing]

Then... what is he?

[Action]

[automailed]

[He's... wary. but at this point, keeping secrets from her will just result in more questions. Between his comments to Ling and Ling's situation, she knows enough that filling in the gaps is all he can do. He can't just brush it off after that conversation.

Dammit, and he'd really wanted to protect her from at least this much.]

Did anybody ever tell you what the Philosopher's Stones were made of?

[Action]

[installing]

No...?

[Action]

[automailed]

[Aaand that just makes it worse.]

Stones can only be created by sacrificing human lives. A single stone, about this size- [He lifts his hand to mimic holding something no bigger than a marble-] Requires at least a dozen people. The bigger the stone, the more lives it takes.

[Action]

[Winry stops walking for a moment to stare at Ed. She's silent for a bit before:]

So that's why Ling was talking about soul- Wait, does your dad have one?

[Action]

[automailed]

[Edward falls silent again, his eyes narrowing, clenched hands hidden in his pockets. He'd managed to keep the issue of the Philosopher's Stone and his father out of his mind for a while after he'd arrived, but with Hohenheim here now, it's... hard to forget. It's hard to forget a lot of things, living the way he is now. The state of his father's body is just one small piece of the puzzle that's impossible to keep off his mind these days.]

....He is one.

[Action]

[installing]

He's-

Then what about you and Al-?
