... We can stay away from that clan. [ he really doesn't want to wake up and find ling sitting on his couch, eating his food when he can actually eat it. ]

[automailed]

You just want to visit May. [Yeah he knows it, bro. You like them lolis.]

[ahobby.livejournal.com]

I do not!

[automailed]

Yeah, you do! Where else are you gonna learn alkahestry, right?

[Little brother's got a crush~]

[ahobby.livejournal.com]

[ You're a JERK. ]

She's not a very good teacher!

[automailed]

She's not? Is that why you haven't been able to learn anything from her yet?

[ahobby.livejournal.com]

We didn't have a lot of time, but it was frustrating. Teacher was good at outlining the concepts clearly. May has trouble explaining things in scientific terms. [ AND HE CAN'T FEEL THE DAMN FLOW MAY. STOP SAYING TO FEEL THE FLOW. ]

[automailed]

How'd she explain it then? How the hell can you describe alchemy without scientific terms? [That makes no sense, bro.]

[truthhides.livejournal.com]

She told me that I had to feel "the flow". [ HE DOES NOT SOUND PLEASED. ]

[automailed]

...Feel the flow? That doesn't make any sense.

[truthhides.livejournal.com]

I still don't understand what she was talking about.

[automailed]

[It's not really making much sense to Edward, either. Alchemy works my manipulating the earth. It's that simple. If they could learn it under the age of ten, alkahestry at their age should be a snap.

Al might be surprised, though, when Edward flops down on the sand, waving a hand somewhat dismissively.]</small. Whatever, whatever. It's not like we don't have lots of time to learn how to do it here. Just forget about it for today.

[ he's been seeing little bits of this all week and it still weirds him out to see ed passing up a chance to study another possible way to get home.

still. winry might hit them if they try to cut the trip short to do some research... subject change time. ]

Let's take a look around.

[automailed]

[Explore time! Okay then. Edward pushes himself to his feet, dusting sand off of himself and tugging on his sandals.]

Sure, let's see what's out there. Besides the beach, anyway- maybe there's something cool in the mountain.

[truthhides.livejournal.com]

[ looking over toward the mountain! ]

If we go now, they might not notice. [ and they won't get yelled at for their wanderlust. ]

[automailed]

We're supposed to be having fun, and everyone else can go swimming but us. They can't get mad at us for finding something else to do. [Let's gooooo~]

[truthhides.livejournal.com]

Race you. [ because it's not a day at the beach without a race. ]

[automailed]

Ha! You're on! [With a competitive grin he takes off down the beach at a dash. And he has longer legs now so it won't be as easy for Al to win! except he probably will anyway]

[truthhides.livejournal.com]

Cheater!

[ HAVEN'T YOU EVER HEARD OF 1, 2, 3 GO?

OH WELL. OFF ROBO BRO GOES. oh you are faster now. OH WELL. this is the perk of being a suit of armor ]

[automailed]

Gotta stay alert at all times, Al!

[Al will probably catch up quickly, but Ed's determined to give him a run for his money. Mind you with no goal in mind and Al lacking a body, he pretty much wins by default, since he doesn't get tired. Edward runs ahead as quickly as his legs will carry him, listening for the clank-clank-clank to get closer.]

[truthhides.livejournal.com]

[ RUN RUN RUN RUN RUUUUN. you may have gotten a cheater's headstart, but he'll win this race no problems at all.

and if you cheat again, bro? this will turn into an alchemy race. ]

[automailed]

[Oh bother, he doesn't last as long as he'd hoped. STILL! He holds the lead for longer than usual, and that's a source of pride, at least to him. Eventually though he starts to tire, gradually falling behind until he finally just flops over in the sand.

Ahhh why does he always have to lose so much. D|]

[truthhides.livejournal.com]

[ whoops. al stops!

one day you'll beat him, when he's not a robot. ] Brother, are you coming?

[automailed]

[HUFF. HUFF. DAMN YOU, TIRELESS ARMOR.]

Isn't this far enough?

[truthhides.livejournal.com]

[ PSH. ]

I could carry you.
