[Tap. Tap. Tap. This was something Winry was used to hearing at this point. A pencil tapping against a notepad. She had been working on many a drawing, but never anything new. Improvements to those who needed it. Checking that things were fine for another, but she rarely found herself making any new prosthetics from scratch. Nothing she could put her name to anyway.

In a way she felt happy that she didn't have to, it meant the healers here were doing an extremely good job. But the other part of her found herself questioning a lot. Was there even a point in her being here at this job? Did she really deserve the pay? Could she maybe ask to give her less? Or maybe she figured it was time to move on from it, try something new. But she knew as she sighed she just couldn't.]

That's another design done... [She turns the page over, already going to start on the next design, but it wasn't long before she found herself pausing. Pencil just inches away from the paper once more. After a moment she put it down before moving to lean away from the desk she had been currently sitting at.]

I should really hand in my letter. I mean I will finish what I need to here before the two weeks, but... I should maybe have already had what I am going to do planned.

[She sighed slightly as she soon moved to stand up moving to grab the device before it finally shuts off.]

Action: Genessia Hospital
[Winry had left the office for the time being. Her plan was to hand in her letter of resignation or her two weeks notice at the hospital. She knew it was for the best since she wasn't exactly happy working there anymore for the pay she was getting.

She would have rather had less or maybe she could have done something for someone with the extra money, but Winry knew the other reason for it. She just figured it was the best time to try elsewhere. So with that in mind she was walking the corridors, saying hello to people she meets along the way.]

Video
[After she had finally handed in her notice she made sure the feed was on. A small solemn smile placed upon it.]

So... I handed in my notice at work today. I figured now is the time to try somewhere else and use what I have learned elsewhere. Be in at another hospital or even getting my own place. [She honestly didn't know which it would be. While having her own place might seem normal, she wasn't sure she could do it alone. She always had someone.]

But because of it, I realised that... I should really consider my living arrangements again.

[It wasn't long before there was a crash coming from behind her as Winry was quick to turn around.]

Togepi, what did I tell you about going in there?! [She was quick to move to deal with it as the feed switched off.]

Winry? Thinking about changing jobs, then?

SOMEWHERE ELSE?

WHY?

Edited 2018-08-30 21:10 (UTC)

I think it's more thinking about taking it to another city. Another place that might need it more than Genessia.

After all some of the best healers work at the hospital so I know people there are doing well and don't really need someone like me there.

I feel like I could be more help somewhere else.

Though if I went somewhere like Nova City I would probably still live in Genessia as apartments in Nova City are expensive.

Have you tried Fayren then? Yes, there are a lot of healers that live there but maybe your inventions can be applied to other uses.

You're always needed, Winry.

...Not yet. [Winry seemed awkward at the mention. She was still planning on going there but the memories of what happened still linger.]

Though I'm not sure how prosthetics can be applied to that world. I mean if they can be infused with magic that would be something, but I wouldn't be able to do that.

[She smiled slightly.]

Ah, thank you for saying that.

[ Sorry Winry, Kay is oblivious to what went on there. ] Ah, I see the problem.

Maybe it's worth giving Nova City a chance? There are a lot of androids there that might need repairs or upgrade from someone trustworthy.

[ He can't smile back so he gives a brief nod. ]

Is the truth.

No, really. Cassian always complains that I am terrible at lying.

Oh.

[Immediately all better.]

... But wouldn't the commute be terrible? Surely there's a way for you to live comfortably in Nova City, if only to travel less. [Even if it means losing his bestie as a neighbor.

That thought makes him frown again.]

But doesn't that fall more under robotics?

[She couldn't help but laugh slightly.]

Nw I am curious as to why he thinks you are bad at lying? Like do you have an obvious tell or something?

I could always learn how to drive.

[She shook her head slightly.]

With the amount, I would be making most of the money no matter where would go on to the apartment. I would rather have an even amount going into every day and housing.

Yes but most robotics aren't any different than advanced mechanics.

He seems me attempt to lie before and I just have no creativity for lies. It's hard to say something that it isn't true. For droids, at least.

Aren't they? Guess I'll have to look that up when I can.

I see. I guess that is my something new learned today. I'm at least glad you don't lie though.

Pretty much. How do you thing people tarted making droids? First it was only machines that could make their life easy, then advances software and better frames but the base is still mechanical.

Thanks. More people shouldn't lie but for some it's inevitable.

Where I was from we didn't actually have things like droids. So it was always a good learning experience for me here.

Yeah... I mean people lie to not hurt other people sometimes. Still not right though, but some lies I understand.

This world offers us a lot of new experiences never had in our world. I never saw magic before but I learned about it here.

There are white lies that might be acceptable.

I saw alchemy, but not magic. So I agree that was another I never knew of before.

As for white lies that were the thing I was thinking about. Depending on what the white lie was in the first place.

Alchemy? What's the difference?

There's always limits, it's a matter of knowing them. Sometimes lying is a way to make people suffer less.

Ah, true. Driving a car would be an option for you... My goodness, the commute though. You would still spend so much time traveling.

What is the work you are considering?

Do not ask. I don't know that much about it. If my friends were here you'd know a lot more and the differences.

I guess that is true. it's like people saying they are fine when they aren't to not hurt others.

It would, but at least one wouldn't have as many stops along the way.

As for what work... maybe the same, just in another city since most healers and such seem to go to Genessia hospital.

Should I be worried?

Exactly. Little white lies like those.

Oh, no, no. You shouldn't be worried.

I understand those kinds at least. I think I even do them myself sometimes.

Hm, okay then. I try not to be.

Everyone does that sort, it's not a big deal at least. They cane make life easier.

And I suppose Nova would make sense for that, given your expertise in machinery...

So then... Do you intend to move? Or... [He worries that begging she stays is selfish (it is,) but also... bestie....... why does the idea of her moving away hurt him so much???]

Yeah, but they can annoy people as well if they find out otherwise.

I also admit I would depending on what it was.

It would make the most sense, but it's could also be the reason I pick another city. So that I can be of more use in somewhere like Attleon.

[She paused for a moment.]

If it's Nova City, no. Because unless I get a roommate I couldn't afford to and... really don't think I would want someone to have to deal with my mess.

Attleton could be a good place to live as well. It is cheaper there... Fayren seems to be behind the times in terms of science, but I'd assume they have magical healing?

[He won't even suggest Everglade. He'll die if Winry moves to Everglade.]

You're not that messy, though. I think you'd make a lovely roommate.

True but since white lies are usually small things, they don't get too mad or forget about them quickly. So there's that!

I guess that is always a positive. I think I will keep that in mind if I ever get mad at a little white lie.

Eliot, you've never seen my room messy. it can get pretty bad if I am focused on a project.

[She just always makes sure to tidy if people are coming over.]

I can't imagine it! Though, you needn't clean up before I visit. I don't want to interrupting your work flow.

It doesn't change my workflow. Plus a clean household is a good thing anyway.
