Siran smiled at Roze," I hope you never fall into a situation where you need to protect yourself,but that is something discreet enough it can be hidden anywhere."
She walked out of the nest, seeing Roze made her confused,and she did not like the feeling. She would wait for the others elsewhere,she had to go find a place to think. She knew they were leaving the next day. Maybe if I stay in the jeep I can sleep and clear my mind,she thought to herself.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Wrath lifted his head from the counter,as he quickly lowered it again. He was going into his happy place,and ignoring the people around him. He closed his eyes,and relived seeing flashes of his real mother and the Elric's mother. The mystery of if he was remembering Sloth or their mother did not matter,it was their own carelessness that created Sloth.
((Soo tired,and having Writer's block for Wrath))

Roze nodded to Siran, and said, "Thanks..." before she left, and turned to Kimblee. "Let's hope that if I do not use this... that they do not find out about it..." She exhaled, and shook her head. "Tell you the truth, I'm not sure that I'm comfortable carrying such a thing... but I guess it may save my life someday... but at the same time, it could end it..." She sat down in a dirty chair heavily, and somehow it didn't break, but it did groan from her sudden sitting in it. Suddenly, Roze both looked and felt tired. "Sometimes... I don't really know why I go on anymore... because it's not like I got anywhere to go... which is probably the reason I denied the officer's offer and stayed with you..."

[I've started a thread in Central Military Apts. I'm going to start the RP for getting Barry his body back. It's takes place in the future, after the events in this thread, so I plan on staying with this RP too. Anyone who wants, can join. But if you post infrequently, be prepared to have your character dragged along xD]

Kimblee woke several hours later with his head still in Rozes lap. Her hand was on his head and she was fast asleep. He sat up, wincing with pain. His back was screaming at him for staying in that curled up position for so long and his legs were asleep, which he didn't discover till he got to his feet.
He collapsed immediately and screamed as the needles and pins of waking limbs burned like blue blazes. "Holy SHIT!!" He groaned and rolled on his side, clutching his legs.
edit: Riza ( xD )
She found herself curled up with her head in Barry's metal lap. He'd made a pillow for her out of a bag of flour and covered her up with his toga. Siran was laid out across a bench, not covered up at all. She got to her feet and quietly laid a sleeping bag over the curled up woman before yawning and returning to her sleep. It was still dark with only a hint of daylight approaching. She dragged a sleeping bag over her tired body for extra warmth.

(Think you mean Riza, not Roze. XD Else you'd be Shadow-playing me.  ) Roze stayed asleep until Kimblee yelled out. She started, and stood up quickly. "What is it?" she asked quickly. However, she saw Kimblee clutching his legs, and snickered a bit. "Either you've gotten shot in your legs... or they're asleep something fierce." She grinned at him. "What now...?" she asked the man. She didn't know what to do, so she figured he'd have something planned out. |

Siran curled up tighter under the sleeping bag. She had never been one to take kindness,but she jumped when she felt it laid on her,"thanks." she said ,as she went back to sleep.

Kimblee
Later that morning he had a word with Barry. He was a bit undecided about the current mission and was tempted to just go AWOL right away. He didn't, however, feel like incurring the wrath of Colonel Frank Archer. If he went AWOL, he'd have to constantly be looking over his shoulder for 'that day'. That was no way to make a gentle gal like Roze live... always on the run, with no place to set her roots.
He was extremely concerned over this despondent mood that had overtaken her. Seems that her shock was wearing off some and the reality of her grave situation was finally setting in. It made him panicky. If she gave too much thought to her lost home, she might start giving too much thought to the cause of her lost home and friends. And if that happened... well, he could pretty much kiss any real hope of being with her goodbye.
After Barry decided to back out of the mission, he gave Barry his apartment keys and told him go lay low there till he was finished with the job at hand. Much to his surprise, Riza requested to go with him. "Wait, what?" he asked, blinking in surprise. "Ain't you supposed to be babysitting me, per Frank Archer's orders?" he asked her.
"With all due respect, sir, I don't feel like looking over your shoulder day and night."
He had no problem with it. He was her commanding officer for this mission, even if only in name only, but the fewer people he had to give orders to and be responsible for, the better. He made a pot shot at her about cleaning up his place and keeping it up while he was gone. She simply blinked and gave him a deadpan look.
And now it was back to Roze. On the one hand, he wanted her out of harms way. He felt she'd be safer with Barry and Riza at his place. But on the other hand, he was afraid that if she went with them, she'd see his wreck of a place and run for the hills. Or that once 'out of sight' he'd also also be 'out of mind' to her. If he came back to an empty apartment it would be the living end. He sought her out and approached her about it.
"So...Roze," he began awkwardly, "Barry and Riza are going to Central. They're gonna stay at my place till I'm done with this mess. You'd be safer if you went with them, but...." he shrugged, "I'm not the boss of you or nothin. Go with them...or stay with. It's your decision."

Roze was, how unusual it might seem to a person living there, cleaning up the place, bit by bit. What she was doing when Kimblee approached her was washing the walls of the place. "What is it, Kimblee?" she asked, putting the sponge mop down and rubbing her forhead. It seemed that she had been working hard, juding by the sweat on her body. When he talked to her, she nodded in understanding. "Thank you... Kimblee... for giving me this chance... For while I do like you... I don't really want to die either... but I'll be waiting for you, remember that, so if you can... try not to die..." She gave him a quick hug, and walked out after Riza. She didn't look back, but that was because she didn't want him to see the tears on her face. "Riza-san... If you're going... take me with you..." she asked, wiping the tears away.

Wrath did not like waiting and more than that,he was bored. He decided to cloud watch but then it became a game only looking for perverse looking clouds. The young humonculus laughed at his own silly game.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Siran pretended to be asleep,as Roze,Barry,and Riza left. She cracked an eye and looked at Kimblee. " You know either way she goes she is going to get dragged into this."
Siran watched Kimblee,as she waited for a response.
(( Sorry having Writer's Block))

He cast an irritated glance at Sirans remark, "Gee, ya think so?" he said with a sarcastic smirk. He knew it wasn't really called for, but he didn't feel like blunt reminders. "She's already dragged into this, compliments of Yours Truly."
He tossed back the rest of the beer he'd been nursing and poured himself a stiff, straight whiskey and knocked it back and filled another. "Poor me, poor me...pour me another." he said with a chuckle, looking her way. He said 'fuck it,' and grabbed the whole bottle and sat next to her on the floor and passed her the bottle. "So..tell me what's on your brain." he invited.

She took the bottle and she drank a sip and handed it back as she said," Pretty stupid thoughts about if I had grown up different I might be like Roze,I never had a violent urge till I was attacked when I was fifeteen,I acted as if I was blind,kept my eyes hidden with a black cloth I could see through. The woman who had took me in convinced me to try and forgive what happened. leave it to a group of three off duty soldiers to provoke someone."she laughed a little.
She took a small breath and continued," They laughed how about how easy it would be I would not be able to identify my attackers,I killed them and then returned to the only home I knew to find my caregiver had died of a heartattack,and I felt someone had to pay for the pain i felt and here I am. I killed soldiers because everyone I met reminded me of those that first attacked me. I felt Roze should have a chance if she ever found herself cornered,maybe prevent her from seeing life in nothing but a haze of crimson.That's what is going on in my head,how about yours."

He was attempting to make light small talk, not hear a life story. But she summed it up quite briefly. She sure didn't seem like the ding bat her first impression had given. As a matter of fact, she was pretty trig. Crafty, even. Yeah, he could relate to crafty.
"You know Siran, Roze hasn't exactly led a sheltered life. Liore was pretty damn rough before me and Envy leveled it to the ground." he said, "She had no family, her boyfriend died, so she pretty much had to get by on her own. Sure, that's not quite the same as what happened to you and all, but we all choose what kind of people we wanna be."
"You turned out the way you are only partly from experience. The rest is pure nature." he added. "Why not admit it? The only reason you continue to kill is because you like it... pure and simple. It's just your nature."
He took a long swig from the bottle and winced as it burned his throat. "Goddamn this stuff is for shit! Where's Greed hidin the good stuff I wonder." he wondered.

Siran looked at him,and then said," I continue because I like the fact that the only guys I kill are those that planned to prey on me in the first place,if I liked the joy of killing that little sand trap of mine would have swallowed you and the three girls up and I would not have given a sideway glance,"she laughed and then added,though it is fun seeing how sexually frustrated you can get someone before they lose their resolve. I never gave it a thought why i kept killing I guess I felt I would keep doing it till the pain went away and then maybe I could find a guy get married and live peacefully.
She looked at him,as he looked distasteful at the beer," i would have my best stuff under lock and key if it were me,but this is the first time I have drank alcohol. Though I was desperate enough to drink blood once."she addes the last part as a joke but it was dry.

"Wait, what?" he said shaking his head as if to clear it. "What the hell...?"
So that's how she did it! he thought with a wry grin. Well, he was calling her out this time. "Now wait just a goddman minute." he interrupted, "How the hell did you jump from killing to sex in the same sentence?"
He scratched his head in puzzled irritation. Was that how she managed to daze and confuse people? Just throw a completely irrelevant phrase between two statements? It made her sound incredibly flighty and air-headed, but if she did it on purpose... the little vixen! He suddenly started braying in drunken laughter, "So I was right the first time... you really do baffle people with bullshit and then pig stick 'em when their heads are spinning!" He clutched his gut in laughter and fell to his side with a drunken 'thunk'. He cast her a wicked grin and his eyes twinkled with mischief when his head suddenly began to spin. "Oh God..I'm gonna hate myself tomorrow morning. And Envy aint gonna be too happy if he has to nurse a hungover alchemist."
He curled his lip in disgust at her remark about the blood, "Man, that's gross." he said, "Last thing I'd wanna drink is something that taste like a mouth full of pennies."

Siran looked at him,and laughed when she caught him by suprise. She ran her hand through her hair,and then answered him," Because for me,I enjoy the feeling of a man who wants to get his jollies on,and he used the wrong pick up line. First of all I am only half Ishballan,hell I hardly know any of their beliefs,infact I know none of them. So as he falls off on of my knives I feel as good as I do after mediocre sex."
She then waited,as she kept her fake face painted on,she had never let it get to sex,ever since her near experience with rape. She was scared of men,while she found some attractive,she never engaged them in conversation," You think you've figured me out,Zolf,maybe I like confusing people or I am a Ditz, Truth be,my enjoyment comes from the reaction I cause in people." her voice had a seductive tone to it," I could show you how I do that."
She used her gloved hand and ran a finger along his cheek,as she added,"I was joking about the blood,I have licked it off my blade once or twice,but that was too intimidate my victims."she removed her hand once she realized what she was doing,as she actually blushed a little,but quickly hid her face with her hair.Sorry,you look incredibly sexy,when you look that way.
She needed to have a talk with her brain to let her decide what she wanted to say instead of blurting out her first thought.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Wrath walked around town,he could not sleep,or he did not need it anymore,he was not sure,he had gotten bored with his game,and decided to people watch it was boring too,but he could learn about his soon to be partners.
He found a beat up chair by a table,it was still useable,as he sat down and propped his legs up on the table.

He sat up and snorted disdainfully, "Oh yeah? Well where I come from girls like you are called a prick tease. And in your case, a psychotic prick tease."
He gave her warning glance, "You best watch yourself." he added with a hint of malice, "It's all a numbers game lady. The odds are bound to stack up against you and you'll find yourself thoroughly raped someday."
"What a pity that would be, right?" he said with a knife-sharp grin.
He was unsettled and agitated now and got to his feet. He ran his hands over his jeans, smoothing out wrinkles that didn't exist, just to busy his hands.
"I got somethin' to do, I'll cya later." he stalked off and climbed the stairs to the guest bathroom. He muttered curses as he turned the faucet on the shower and yelped as the cold water sprayed his skin.

She looked at him,as she smirked," How can I be a tease,if they start the conversation by calling me an Ishballan Whore,and to take it like a good girl,you saying that deserves me helping him with the problem he put on himself."
She let the smirk drop and said,"Yeah it would,I probably would of become a recluse if they had succeeded.If they had never crossed my path,I would probably be married with kids now,"her voice dropped to a whisper,instead I am afraid of getting intimate afraid they will hurt me before I can hurt them."
As he stood and left,she watched him,she just looked at the floor in front of her. She started thinking what Kimblee and Roze's children would look like. She cracked a smile,and looked towards Wrath as she said," Do you have anything better to do then Lurk?"
He turned towards her and said," No,and I am not lurking I am gathering information,and other things.'

He descended the staircase running a comb through his long, damp hair. His tank top was thrown casually over his shoulder and his other hand held his boots and socks.
He glanced casually at Siran, who seemed engaged in discussion with the wild kid homunculus. He liked that kid.. reminded him of himself at the age of 12. All the way down to the hyper behavior and wild black hair.
He tossed the boots and socks on the floor and sat on the long couch. "You two best try an' get some sleep. Hopefully we'll be taking off tomorrow and get this nasty business over with. I got other stuff that needs doing."
He sighed and stretched out on the couch, ankles crossed and arms folded behind his head. It was getting slightly chilly, so he pulled the afghan from the back of the couch and covered up with it, mumbling something along the lines of 'goodnight' or some such thing.
[OoC: Since it's been weeks since anyone has shown interest in progressing this story line, I'm going to leave this thread. No point having characters putz around aimlessly xD Siran, maybe you could join the thread on getting Barry's body back? It's at Military Apts right now, Kimblee's Crash pad.]
