[LEAVE IT TO ED TO BRUSH OFF WHAT WINRY SAID!!]
Finding the river bank, I yawned and sat down in the lush grass and looked to the ripples in the water and though of anything I could. I took my sketchbook from my back pack and started sketching the river and mountains, using the moonlight as my light source. Winry stood, hiding her eyes. "Your damsel in distress is waiting for you. I'm going to my room. You don't need me to bother you. Besides, I have a new automail arm and leg to work on for you." She said coldly and walked towards the steps. |
((XDD Oops.))
"Winry!" Edward called as she turned her back on him. "She hasn't done anything to you, how can you just leave her out there!" She didn't seem to stop..or slow down. He raced and caught her as she got to the first step, grabbing her arm. "Winry." He started. "Shiba....Shiba..helped us...helped me." He let her arm go, hanging his head, and pulling back his sleeve. "If it hadn't been for her..then...me and Al..would still be..." He trailed off. "Please...I dont' ask for much...just help me find her." |
[did you see mah art!!!!]
She heard him call to her and she kept on going, walking faster. He grabbed her arm; she felt it... his right hand was not the automail she knew... she turned slowly and looked to his eyes. He then hung his head and she drew her eyes to the arm he was exposing to her. "Edward... your arm..." She said, stunned. "When were you going to tell me?!" She shouted at him. "Do you honestly think I don't care that youre human again? This means more to me than you think and you seem to not even care what I'm feeling right now..." She sighed and continued up the steps. "You know as well as I do, Risembool is the safest place in the region. We all were out past dark as kids and nothing ever happened to us. Youre all over reacting. If shes as good as you say she is, let her be. Shell come back when shes ready. In the mean time, Id like to spend some much needed alone-time with you... theres a few things we need to discuss.. so when youre ready to talk... I'll be in my room. I know in my heart she's safe..." She continued up the steps. back on the bank, I whipped out my water colors and a small cup with the river water in it and began to paint the sketch I had just done. i was in my glory with the beautiful scenery... hopefully they weren't too worried about me. |
((Jes, it was vereh pretteh...safe huh? Sez JOO!! I miss meh third party X3))
"Uh--Winry!" Edward felt ashamed, she was right, first time home in a few months and he starts off by yelling at her. "It was like that when we were kids...but I doubt it's like that anymore." He watched sorrowfully as she turned back up the stairs and he shook his head. "I'll be back when I find Shiba!" He called. "We'll talk then." Alphonse and Pinako were walking the roads next to the Rockbell home, Den out in front, nose to the ground. "Do you smell anything Den?" Alphonse asked. He only got a whine in response. The brush out of the way rustled once, and the click of shades preceeded a baritone huff. "So, you're still at that 'art' thing huh..." |
[omfg the girls are so noisy and roudy tonight!!!at the dorm]
"Its always quiet around here and you know it. You just don't want her out of your sights..." She said coldly to him, going upstairs and slamming her bedroom door. Inside, she started to make her bed and looked around at the drawings she had done in preparations for his new automail arm, the new design she had made, just for him... she gritted her teeth and pushed all the drawings into the trash can at the end of the desk and she sat down, and looked up at the cork board full of ideas, measurements, and among all the papers was a photos of the three of them as kids. She rested her head in her hand and merely smiled. "Why... are you so dense, Edward?" she said to no one. [that last line I have no idea what youre talking about, so im not gonna respond. I'm unsure if Pinako is speaking or what..] |
((LOL, hope you can get some sleep through it all.))
Edward was out the door and down the road within a few minutes, it may not have been a cold fear that gripped him, but there was still nervousness...Shiba..nice as she was, always seemed to get into a predicament wherever she went. A single eyebrow lifted and the large Ishvarllan ((See mah third party XDD I missed him so.)) moved farther out of the brush and cleared his throat loudly. "Shiba..wasn't it?" He asked, moving to get a better view of the peice she was working on. "Hmm.." |
[OH I'm sure Ill be up late working on an art i'm entering into a Gaia Contest for my penpal... x.x and yes NOW i understand XD]
Startled, I dropped my brush and looked back at the tall, dark man behind me. "S-Scar!? What are you doing here!?" I asked, my voice cracking. "Is this youre campsite? I'm sorry, I'll leave!" I said, hurriedly standing up and dropping the watercolor painting from my lap to the grass, face up and safe. I ran to the bank, scooping up my brush and cup and rinsed them out. "Sorry, I just need to wash these real fast and i'll be out of you hair..." Even though I was fused with him, i still felt weired around him, especially since I was the one who killed his only companion. |
((LOL Well, don't go falling asleep in your classes X3))
Scar, confused at her sudden frantic behavior, quirked an eyebrow and watched as she headed for the river. "I'm not staying here long." He said loud enough so that she could hear. "I'm merely passing through, will you stop that fidgeting and worrying!" He crossed his arms and looked away. "You're getting all worked up over nothing." I'm lonely. He'd wanted to say. I'd forgotten how it was to travel alone, and it's been a while since I've talked with anyone...ever since I buried Kiri....you have every right to hate me...please, do so, but forgive me if my objectives this time aren't of destruction. |
[Nah never!! XD During the crit, maybeh...]
I looked up at him as i came back with clean brushes. "Oh? Why not? What brings you so far from home?" I asked, my heart calming down. He had a look on gentleness in his eyes and I smiled at him, knowing full well he was feeling the loss of Kiri now. I kneeled beside my bag and shoved my brushes into a case and then looked to the still drying watercolor. I sat, relaxing again on the bank and closed my eyes, enjoying the brisk breeze of the summer night. "You miss her, don't you?" I simply asked, keeping my eyes closed. I kind of hoped he would sit and join me instead of just standing behind me like the tower he was. |
((Hidey Hidey!))
"...Home?" Oh, she meant the backalleys and open desert in the Eastern Region. "Nothing in particular." I couldn't take one more sleepless night next to that grave. Scar ignored Shiba for the most part, gazing off into the Horizion, wondering why he was still there, surely there was something better he could be doing...but...then he would still have to deal with the silence. "Wha--?" He stammered at her question. "What makes you think that?" He shifted uneasily from foot to foot and ran a hand through gray hair. "Maybe.." He said after an excruciatingly long pause. |
[HI! <3 How are yah today???]
"Yeah, you know, East City, I think? But you wander right? Oh well, forgive my asking or prying." I felt uneasy a bit around him; I was always walking on egg shells, watching how I worded things around him, in case he would explode out of anger over something that came out wrong. "What makes me think that? I can see your eyes behind those sunglasses... You look exhausted, meaning a few sleepless nights maybe? I know how that feels; staying up all night to do a painting really takes it out of ya. Oh but listen to me, going on about such nonsense. I must be boring you. Please, sit with me. I was feeling a bit lonely as well." I let out a long sigh and looked back at him. "I miss her too, and I'm sorry for what I did... but it had to be done... will you ever forgive me Aniki?" I picked up my painting and pulled the page out and handed it to him. |
((FREAKIN' COLLLLLDDDDD!! >.< And I seem to have lost the link to Angelic Twins o.0 Where it went I have no clue......going into total OOCness here...I only hope that the actual Scar will forgives...*Ish looming behind meh*.....*sweatdrop* Then again maybeh not...heh))
He paused and shook his head. "Forget it..." He blinked at her invitation and cocked his head to one side, again running a hand through his hair, bad, bad, habit, always out of uneasiness too. "Oh?..uh..s-sure." He took two steps forward, but then she....she said it. "You...you..." He turned his gaze to the ground and flopped beside her on the cool ground. "You idiot." He said. When he raised his face to the sky again, he was smiling, not very wide, but it was there. "Would you believe that you had the courage to do what I couldn't?" He looked over to Shiba and sighed. "She'd asked me countless times..to kill her those first few weeks, I tried..once, but seeing her pull herself back together...I couldn't do it a second time...or a third...you granted her...her first and final wish." He pushed her painting back to her and shook his head. "That's your livelihood, take good care of it, and besides...it would only slow me down..... thank....thank you though." |
[The Angelic Twins is IN private roleplays, same as this one. I just posted in there, so it should still be ion the first page.Actual Scar hm?? *ish clueless*]
I sighed, looking over at him. "I.. wish I could have helped her... She was like a little sister, and as annoying she may have seemed to you...she loved you, you know. More than you think. She talked about you alot." I shook my head. "It wasn't out of courage... more out of pity because i knew she couldn't live a normal life, with the Colonial knowing who and what she looked like." I sighed and took the painting back and put it back in the book and closed it. "I figured maybe you'd like to keep it as a memory of this moment... I know youre a hard ass, and you find it hard to open up to people.. but I have the magic to change that." |
((I know, as soon as I posted I found it LOL
But as for the other stuffs...meh brain, ignore please XDD)) Red eyes were unfocused and misty, voice little more than a murmur. "Yeah." Memories flooded back, some unwanted and others cherished. He ran a hand over his arm where she'd bandaged a wound, while chastising him for being reckless again. "She..was not much more than a stray....like you... like me." To Scar, it didn't matter the reason that Shiba did what she did, but more of the end that came out of it. He jerked his head around and pursed his mouth in a scowl. "Hard Ass? Who are you calling a Hard Ass?" |
[ XD mah spring break is next week <3]
"Being a stray isn't so bad." I smiled and winked at him when he yelled about the hard ass comment. "C'mon now, you know what I mean." I sighed and looked back to the sky. "Such a beautiful night... Im sure Kiri is looking down on us from the stars as we speak..." I wondered where Edward was, Im sure he was aware I was missing by now. I shoved my book into my bag and zipped it up and brought my knees to my chest. "Scar, have you ever met Edwards friend Winry? Or seen her at all?" |
((LUCKIII!!! >.> I dun get mine until like the last week in MArch...ick.))
With a low growl, Scar turned his gaze to the sky that Shiba seemed to intent on. "....Maybe...maybe." Blink...blink, blink "Winry? Who is that?" One look was all it took. "...having..issues with said Winry?" He asked knowingly. ((Omg...advice corner paging Doctor Phil please...ignore me..I'm on a non-existent sugar rush XDD)) ((Enter the short one:)) Edward was stopped in the middle of the road looking one way and then another. "Damn it all, where could she have gone?!" He waved when he saw Alphonse and Pinako coming back his way. "HEY!" He called as they came closer. "Did you find Shiba yet!?" "No, Den didn't smell anything, and no one we asked saw her.""Where could she have gone?" "....The river?" Alphonse asked slowly. After all, it seemed that would be the place she would go..places like that held so many memories. "That's the only place left." Pinako said with a sigh. "You two go on, take Den and I'll meet you back at the house." Edward turned to his brother and with a nod they both headed off. |
[Ours.. were only 6 weeks into the semester, and we have like...alot more to go. Its gonna be a long..semester *sigh* I need the break, yeah, but ill be working anyway.]
I sighed. "Winry is like Eds sister, so he says, but shes been acting really cold towards me since we got here, and I think she liked him and doesn't want me near him... gah this is girl stuff, I apologize. I'll leave you to your peace.." I stood up and brushed my butt of and stretched my back out. Out of the corner of my eye, I saw the boys heading my way and I looked down at him, poking his hair. "Hey sweets, if you wanted an encounter with the Elrics, nows the time, unless you scram." I remembered he hadn't seen Al in his human form; God only knows how he'd react. |
((WHY!!? Why in the world would you want to work over your break? 0.o...course mine are going to taken with my mom to see Dancers at Dolly wood..¬_¬ What'cha gonna do...she's my mum))
"Ah...I see." He said with a smirk. "Well, permit me to offer a bit of advice: Don't wait too long to say something, else the one thing you actually care about...will be gone." Scar let his head bounce back and forth with every poke, finally turning his head to look back. There was Fullmetal..but the one running with him..was familliar, and strange. "Ah, then.....I see." He rose and removed his glasses, wiping them off on his coat tail before turning back to Shiba. "Just remember what I said, alright?" He sighed and lay his forhead against Shiba's waiting just a few more moments. "I wonder....if she had been born diffrently...would she have been like you?" A breeze and he was gone, fading away into the darkness. "SHIBA!" Edward called as he slowed to a jog, coming to a stop by her. "W-Who was that?" He and Alphonse were both out of breath, and only too glad to see that she wasn't hurt. "Are you alright? Why'd you run off like that?" |
[My mom needs me to work, im having money issues and I need to work as much as I can while im not in school...]
"Thanks Aniki." I watch him as he stood and took off his glasses; I smiled. "You look more handsome without glasses on..." I blushed as he leaned down and put his forehead on mine and I smiled looking into his red eyes. I simply smiled. "I'm sure she would have Scar.." I said and with the breeze, eh was gone. I looked to the approaching boys and waved. "Hey boys!" I picked up my bag and slung it over my shoulder and looked to them. "Jeeze why so frantic? It was an old friend, don't worry about it. And I didn't run off, I... just needed to get away, i feel uncomfortable at Winry's home, I feel like she doesn't want me there..." |
((OOooooooooooh. Well, that explains a few things don't it?))
Edward, who was bent over double at this point trying to regain his breath, looked up and stared. "Frantic? Why wouldn't we be, you left without saying a word! We got worried!" Edward looked back to the dark brush and cocked his head. Old friend?..I wonder. "Anyway!" He shook his head and pointed back with his thumb. "We should be getting back...I mean...I know you don't feel at home there, and Winry...well...she's in one of her 'moods' but..really....where else are you going to go? Strays are strays right? You're like us. I'm sure we can all sit down when we get back and ration this out like adults."...maybe. |
[ Yesh... it sucks being poor and in college >.>]
I bowed to him. "I'm sorry... I just needed to get out of there... I heard you two yelling and knew it was about me, and I just don't want to get between you two, lik I knew was going to happen before I even came with you." I nodded and smiled at him and winked at Alphonse, who was the one I knew that ratted me out; I gave him a reassuring grin and walked ahead of them. "C'mon, before she misses you." |
((Amen. *ish dirt poor*))
Edward blushed and looked away, scratching the back of his head. "Yeah...s-sorry about that....Shiba...you're never going to get in the way of anything, okay? I just...I don't know...maybe I am an idiot." Alphonse blushed at the grin and bowed his head in a silent apology, he was only worried about her, that was all. "Oh!" "Oh!" Came the chorused murmur as both boys hurried to catch up. |
I looked back at him as I walked on.
"I am in the way there... i know the look she gave me, I'm invading on her 'together' time with the two of you, especially you, Edward. I'm not dumb... I know you are when it comes to girls... but thats pretty bad if you just can't see it..." i scratched the back of my head, wondering how long shes been giving him hints like this and him not realizing them. "I just don't want you two to fight because of me, that's all. I don't need you two to lose your only family because I showed up outta the blue with you and grew a little attached to the both of you.." |
((Last one, Gomen))
Edward stopped, right in the middle of the road and looked at her back. "See? See what? Is this one of those 'girl things'? What looks? Shiba? Shhhiiiibbbbaaaa!" Alphonse shook his head and looked back. "Geeze, you're going to have to cut him some slack Shiba, he's still as dense as ever, it's like you and him all over again." Edward was so confused. |
[awww okies... I guess ill see u next tues, unless if u can get on anytime, text me <3 nighty]
I stopped, hearing his footsteps quiet and I stuck my tongue out at him. "Let me put it out there so its easy for your idiot blond head to understand...Winry looks at you like you look at me! She got jealous when I touched your face earlier, hence why she threw the shoe at me and you and I hurried upstairs with Alphonse. Shes jealous! Shes angry because you've just met me and you seem to like me more than you like her, and it bothers her, because shes liked you ever since you guys were young!" I shrugged and continued walking. "You boys... is it because youre blond or just... dense?" I put my hands up behind my head and whistled my way onward. "I'll be sleeping outside tonight, under the stars. No need to sleep inside when its this beautiful, and when someone inside the house hates me. Besides, theres not enough room in that small house for me anywhere anyway. I dont wanna get in the way and be a burden to your family. I dont mind sleeping outside, really." |
