Video/Action

Got it. [the camera pans out from the Invasion of Irritated Golden Eyes to reveal the kid's face. two lines of blood are cut across both cheeks, completely symmetrical, but he pays them no mind]

Alright, listen up. Whatever chump tossed me in this place--and I got a goooood, long list o' suspects--I'm gonna find you.

[he pulls the phone back JUST to jab a metal finger at the screen]

An' then I'm gonna kick your ass!

To everyone else--[he shoots off a half-assed, two-fingered wave] Hey. I'm Edward Elric, an' I guess I'm stuck with you for now. Looks like I'll be lookin' for another group t' sell myself to, so if you need an alchemist, lemme know.

[he stares down the camera like he's got an entire raging rant coming...then wilts with a sigh. a hand goes to his head, and he mutters:] Dammit, this blows. Talk about shit timing.

[action; Genessia; OPEN]

[a 5"5' kid in black stomps through the streets, exploring like he owns the place. his clothes are covered in dirt, and his face is bleeding. he looks like he just scraped by a serious fight, and his right metal prosthetic is clear as day. he's serious, he's determined, he looks like a hobo, and he's READY TO GET STARTED on taking down this world!

Ed heads straight toward the library--only to be escorted away by a few very nice adult NPCs]

Oh, kid, you're so beat up! You must be famished. Come on. The Kusanagi and Haller Home for Children will take good care of you. They house lost kids all the time!

[Ed snaps. he flails at the crowd of fake adults and erupts] I'M NOT A LITTLE KID!!!!!

An Alchemist? What would that be?

[Milla was nearby so rather than using this weird video thing, she'll be talking to him in person.]

[Mikasa being around the Bay isn't exactly strange. She's patrols diligently through Genessia City after all and just makes it a point to check the Bay every so often just in case someone she knows comes by.]

Good luck on that. No one here knows who really brought us here. [Here Ed. Here's a girl with strange Spiderman looking equipment.]

[Rikku may or may not be out fulfilling her pockets right now. Hearing the commotion, she couldn't help but check it out. She was all for taking advantage of the commotion, but the metal arm takes her interest away from that for the time being.]

A fake arm...?

[Interesting... How would that even work anyways? Sure Rikku makes robots and what have you from spare parts, but she's never thought about metal prosthetics.

Also, look who seems underdressed for the weather, even if it is warming up. She doesn't seem to mind otherwise.]

[Hearing a kid being beat up? Yeah, that definitely gets this girl's attention. ...Is that really a kid? ...Well, he is ... definitely not a little kid if that line from himself is true. Better rescue the poor locals instead by rushing there.]

Hey, I can continue from here.

[Or should she go with the "Oh, I'm so glad you found him, I've been looking everywhere for him!" and pretend like she knows him? Well, too late for that. But now when she can see him, she can also see that blood on his face.]

Are you okay?

[Oh look, strange girl is all worried about you now.]

A scientist. Alchemists study the makeup of matter. By following various physical laws, we can transmute that matter into almost whatever we want. Repairs, weapons, whatever.

[he flashes a cocky grin] We're pretty handy t' have around.

Ah. I guess I don't really know much about science myself. It was never really a big thing for us anyways. Back home, we mostly used Artes for everything.

[he lifts a curious brow at the gear, then lifts his eyes to hers]

Yeah, well. Maybe me bein' around will move things along. [he slips his flesh hand into a pocket] Any hints at all?

I've been told that time stops back home while we're here, so we won't miss anything when we return. [No hint of annoyance there... nope..] I personally haven't been looking. For a lot of people here, they would love to go back home, but for me, I'd rather stay here. There's not much future for me or my friends back home.

[Ed glances at the new girl, but he's used to that kind of attention. First...he goes on shouting at the crowd] SCREW OFF! [and they disperse.

He huffs a breath and plants his hands on his hips, satisfied. Finally, he turns to the girl]

You here t' harass me too? [what a great foot to start on, A+ Ed]

No. [Just pickpocket you.] I just heard a commotion and came to check it out.

[She's just going to get to the point..]

How exactly are you able to use an arm like that? [She may not be Winry, but she is intrigued by this. Considering she's a mechanic herself, so to speak.]

Wha? [the NPCs shuffle off, and Ed turns to this total stranger, taken aback. why...does she care? blink blink. as if a crowd of morons would scare him!!

oh...wait. he glances down as if he's just now remembering he got cut, then smears blood across one cheek with a palm]

Oh, uh, yeah. I'm fine. You should see the other guy . . . [actually maybe not, the other guy is a naked baby. uh...]

An alchemist, you say...

{ A beat. He can't say that he can't relate to the frustration of being whisked off to a different world against his will, but this place has at least started to grow on him. }

None of us truly know how and why we were brought here. Efforts to find that out for ourselves have had mixed results.

What're Artes?

[Because some strangers actually care, that's why. Just as simple as that. Also let's just keep her away from seeing that Ed fought against a naked baby or else he'd get his ass kicked by a ~~yet another~~ girl.]

Well if I see him, I'll check up on him too...

[Doesn't sound like she believes this "I'm fine" line much considering how she steps a lot closer him to take a closer look at it.]

Well... There'a lot of different kinds. Some of them light up areas like in Fennmont and some of them are used for fighting or healing. [Which come to think of it.. he could use it..] Unfortunately, I don't specialize in healing Artes.

[She'll summon a ball of fire in her hand just for a simple explaination with the help with Efreet. Not that he can see Efreet.]

I'm sorry t' hear that. [there's a sigh to his voice, as he knows it's no help] I was right in the middle of something, though, before I wound up here. Even if this place does work on slower time, I can't just stand idly by.

Well, unless you're able to find a way out, you're stuck here until this place gets bored with you.

[At least she does feel a little sympathy to him having something to do but...]

We had just returned back where we started with an important task from my world, but being here means that's just going to be put on hold. It's the least of my worries now though, considering theres two people here from my world that are bad news.

Oh, this? [with a mild expression, he lifts his arm and bends it a few times. it doesn't even creak!] It's automail. I don't exactly know how it's made, but my mechanic connects it t' my nerves.

[he grins with pride. Winry is the best mechanic around] Which means it's fully operational.

I'm a bit of a mechanic myself, but I never thought to make something like this before.

Can I see it closer? [She doesn't want to intrude on his space. At least... not now. If they were to become friends probably. At least she's not thinking of pickpocketing you anymore.]

An Alchemist? What is that?

[ A beat, and she adds onto it. ]

Also, should you not try to find a healer of some kind? You look hurt...

[he grins nervously, wry. yeah, definitely keeping her away from the naked baby. still a bit tense, Ed lifts his palms in front of him]

Really, I'm fine, so.

[the slashes fairly shallow, as far as cheeks go. but he's not exactly planning on taking care of it... they're also very recent]

How mixed?

[he needs to know the risks he'll be undertaking, afterall]

We don't know the specifics, but we do know that this world is a nexus of sorts between other worlds. This is evidenced by the sub-archways. The locals of this world seem to welcome us, for the most part. There are... other elements in Fayren who are fearful demagogues, but they are very much a minority.

[Ed sighs. it looks like he'll be explaining this one quite a lot]

An alchemist is a scientist. We transmute matter through equivalent exchange. Like this. Oh, hold up--

[he scurries to prop the phone up against a mailbox. that done, Ed stands back and claps his hands. blue lightning zips along his automail as he slides his flesh palm over the top of his metal arm, forming a blade that stretches past his fist. when he's done, he poses all ~cool~ like a tool]

[ The words are complete gibberish, but when his arm changes in a bright light... Well, she has a million questions out the gate, though she's having trouble asking them just yet.

Might as well start with the obvious one! ]

Your arm... It is made of metal but it can move!?

[ Because clearly that's the most important thing here. ]
