For-Chan: "Hey! Roy's just as much of an amateur as we are! He only just started. Pops only just got around to explaining the situation to him."

"Stand, yes, walk, probably not far." Roy transfers his weight from the wall to Havoc.
Dark: "but he's still done it more often than we have." Al pointed out. he knows it's not going to work though.

Havoc wraps an arm around her and tugs her closer. wow, she feels nice. "let's go."
For-Chan: "He could always use the backup," Ed says.

Roy leans in, glad that Havoc's there to hold him up and help him, otherwise he might be spending the night in the alley, or worse, being perved on by Ed!
Dark: (yeah and he's serious perv ^^)
Dark: he tugs the Alchemist closer to him and exits the alleyway, making sure no one notices them. Havoc hopes that no one notices them. he's really glad to have her closes like this. she feels so nice! "are you hungry or something? food always helps."
Dark: Al sighs. "you just want to impress you crush."
For-Chan: "Yeah? So?" Ed snaps defensivly. Truthfully, its the first crush he's ever had. Before he's been stuck around annoying girls like Winry and Meilin. It's his first time realizing that he didn't have to get stuck with a girl, he could have a boy. Or in Roy's case a man. It was lust at first site.

No one really seems to look their way. It's like, now that Roy isn't out fighting monsters, he's invisible, or at least he doesn't stand out as much as he should. He vaguely recalls Hohenheim mentioning something like that. Something about being seen when he needed to be, but otherwise being invisible. That might be it, but it's hard to remember right now. He nods. "Food might help," he agrees. At the very least it will give him an extra boost of energy. Hopefully that and a good dose of caffeine will help.
Dark: Al raises his hand in a defensive gesture. "i'm not saying it's a bad thing... i just don't think you're going about it the right way..." x.x

he helps sets her down in a seat by in a relatively empty McDonald's, getting her a meal and setting it down next to her. no this is not a date. stop thinking like Ed. "this should help."
For-Chan: "Fine, then what's the right way?" Ed demands.

"Thanks," Roy says gratefully. He goes for the drink first, taking big sips. Then he turns his attention to the fries, nibbling on them for a bit. Finally, he pokes at the burger, lifting the bun to see what's on it. He pulls the top bun off and removes the pickles and uses a french fry to scrape off some mustard. Once that's done, he squishes it back together and takes a big bite, not caring if he looks danty or well mannered or not.
Dark: Al sweats a little. "i donno... maybe... be a little less forward?" he suggested. he didn't want his brother to get mad at him.

she's so cute! he can't help think as he watches her arrange and poke at her food. in an attempt to not look like he's staring, he shifts his attention to the scenery which is no way as interesting or as prettier as he so he ends up looking at her again. "feel better?"
For-Chan: "I don't do subtle Al. I can't do subtle. Roy already likes the math teacher. I have to get between them and make sure that he doesn't fall for Roy!"

Roy nods, licking at some ketchup on the corner of his lips. "Yes, thanks." The food and the soda is getting him going again. He still feels a little weak and tired, but he feels ten times better than when he first woke in the alleyway.
Dark: "nothing to thank me for!" Havoc said. "you only saved my butt like twice now. a cheap, high in calories meal is the least i can do." he grinned at her.

"but... annoying Roy-san isn't going to make you any more appealing in his eyes," Al said, fretting a little. "and... well... i mean... Havoc-sensei's um..."
Dark: (a part of me really wants to say "taller" XD)
For-Chan: (*dies laughing*)
For-Chan: "Havoc-sensei's what?" Ed asks suspiciously. "He's not already gay is he?!" Al's power of observation when it comes to people is just a little sharper than Ed's, mostly due to Ed's temper and Al's cooler head.

"You trying to fatten me up?" Roy jokes, happily eating the fries despite his words.
Dark: Al shakes his head. "no. i mean, i don't think he is. he seems pretty straight to me..." he trails off. he takes a breathe, how to word this. "it's just that Roy-san's a man... and Havoc-sensei is more mature and grown up."
For-Chan: Ed glances at him, eyes sharp. "You calling me an immature little flea?"
Dark: (exactly XD)
Dark: "oh yeah, you caught me," Havoc laughs.

"no!" Al says quickly, shaking his head. "forget it." x.x
For-Chan: "The last thing I need is a big butt with clothes like these." Roy smiles as he sips his drink.

"Oh no you don't! You're not getting out of it that easily. Tell me the truth. I can handle it!" Ed insists.
Dark: Havoc laughed. "...that is an interesting outfit."

Al really wishes he hadn't started this. he opens his mouth and then pauses. "speaking of Roy-san... where is he anyway? it's been hours? you don't think he's still with Havoc-sensei?" sorry Roy x.x
For-Chan: "I didn't pick it out." He shrugs. "I just hope I don't look too ridiculous."

Ed's eyes widen. "Dammit!"
Dark: "you look..." Havoc paused. "well, you look better in it than most people do." ^^;;;;

"i hope Roy-san is okay," Al adds. though he's thinking physically he knows that Ed's gonna think like a perv.
For-Chan: "I've never seen anyone else wearing such an...interesting outfit." Roy said, bemused.

"Shit! I hope he didn't take Roy's virginity." Ed clenches his fist.
Dark: (XDDD)
Dark: Al sweatdrops. "niisan, i don;t think that Roy-san's a virgin anymore." >.>;;;

"ever been to anime cons?" he asked, joking mostly.
For-Chan: "Shit!" Ed says again. "This is so unfair! Why was I born so late?!"

Roy shakes his head. "No. Do a lot of people walk around like this?"
Dark: "so Roy-san wouldn't be known as the Insane Alchemist." Al muttered to himself.

"all sorts of crazy outfits," he said. "but like i said, at least you look good in it."
For-Chan: Ed settles down into another black sulk, muttering to himself darkly.

"Thanks." He smiles. "But I think your opinion is a little biased since I saved your life so many times."
Dark: "does it really matter if it is or not?" Havoc asked, resting his cheek in his hand. talking to her makes him so comfortable... almost like talking to Roy. strange feeling of comfort and peace. huh, strange.

Al sweatdrops and reaches for his brother, rubbing his head. "it's okay niisan," Al said. "want some ice cream?"
For-Chan: Ed almost thinks of snapping at him fro treating him like a kid...but it's Al. He can only snap at Al so much before he regrets it. Instead, he sighs and nods. "Yeah, sure. Ice cream."

"I suppose not." Roy smiles again as he finishes up his fries, the burger long gone.
Dark: Al smiles at him, sweetly and warmly. he takes his brother's hand and leads him towards an ice cream store. "we can try new flavors."

Havoc seems pleased with the answer. "want anything else."
For-Chan: Ed nods as he obediantly follows along. Even angry holding Al's hand calms him down and makes things settle to rights, for now at least.

"Buy a girl a sundae?" Roy asks, still a little hungry, he didn't get to eat lunch after all.
Dark: Havoc nods gladly and he stands to do that. "chocolate? strawberry?"

Al leads him to a nice little ice cream place. "ohhh there are so many here. some are different than the place we went to be before." Al really likes ice cream. he squeezes Ed's hand in joy.
For-Chan: "Strawberry, with nuts please." ^_^

Ed smiles, squeezing back. "Look, they have a giant sundae with ten scoops of ice cream. If we get that, you can try ten different flavors at once."
Dark: "yes ma'am," Havoc said and went to get it. he came back and placed it down in front of him. "your ice cream."

Al's eyes got all wide. "i can't eat all that!"
For-Chan: "That's why we're sharing. We can finish it off, so start picking," Ed says, enjoying the look of surprise on his brother's face.

"Thank you," Roy smiles as he picks up the spoon and dips it into the sundae, getting a nice even bite. He hums happily as he eats it. So good.
Dark: he bounced on a little and did, smiling happily. his eyes twinkled in ebullience.

"you look much better," Havoc points, nodding.
For-Chan: Ed grins. "There's just one condition. Once scoop must be rocky road."

"I feel a lot better than before." Roy nods, taking another bite of his Sundae.
Dark: Al stops, looking at him. "but... bleh..." x.x
For-Chan: "What? You have nine other flavors to eat, don't bleh me." He pokes him in the side.
Dark: Al squeaks and swats at Ed's hand. "fine fine, you keep it away from my flavors." x.x
Dark: "a little foods all you needed," Havoc said. "you put all those building back together... how did you do that anyway?"
For-Chan: "Yeah yeah," Ed waves his hand.

Roy points his spoon at Havoc. "It's magic," he says, conspirationally, his eyes shining.
Dark: Havoc sweatdrops. "i'm a math teacher. i don't believe in magic." he smiles at her though. she's so cute!

and so the ice cream is order and Al chooses a little booth by the window to eat at. "oh this looks so good!"
For-Chan: "Fine then. It's really alchemy. Turn lead into gold. Equal exchange and such. But it's close enough to magic isn't it?" He holds out his spoon, letting Havoc see the white plastic change into gold.

Ed smiles as they settle down with the ice cream. "Well, let's dig in." Spoon in hand, he goes for the dreaded rocky road first.


Dark: Havoc surprised by the example, eyes wide and mouth hanging open for a moment. "it's damn near close to magic. so it really wasn't just a cool name, you really are an Alchemist."

Al avoids it, going for the rum raisin which is absolutely wonderful. "ahhh this is so good!"
For-Chan: Roy nods. "Smart boy." He uses the gold spoon to continue eating his ice cream.

"Yeah," Ed has to agree. It's delicious.
Dark: he's happy that Ed's in a better mood. the less he thinks about Havoc-sensei, and Roy-san especially, the happier Al is. "we are so coming back here again."

he nods. that's interesting. he didn't think alchemy existed. well he didn't think monsters existed so he supposes he can accept the alchemy thing. he was gonna ask about the monsters then, if they used alchemy too when he notices some ice cream on the side of her face. automatically he reaches over and wipes it off with his thumb. "you got some right here," he says as he does the wiping, then sticking his thumb in his mouth. again without thinking.
For-Chan: "Hai, hai," Ed says, more focused on the ice cream now. Of course, he has to pause every few minutes to battle off an ice cream headache.

Roy looks up, eyes wide as a blush spreads across his cheeks. "Thanks," he squeaks, looking down at the sundae. He can't believe that Havoc just did that...but he did! He ate ice cream off his face!
Dark: Havoc just glad she didn't smack him. maybe she does like him! he almost blushes at the thought. "ah... no problem."

Al chuckles and lets Ed enjoy his ice cream. a little peace with his brother is so nice. it's been a long time.
For-Chan: Roy scrapes up the last of the strawberry syrup from the bottom of the cup and licks it off of his spoon. Finally, there's no more ice cream left to distract him, so he looks up at Havoc, a faint blush still coloring his cheeks.

Ed is happy now. He has ice cream. He's sharing with his brother. Good times, good times. His pervy thoughts can wait till later. Now he's just enjoying himself.
