He quirked an eyebrow.
"Oh really? Who might they be?"
He shifted his grip on the small kid, not quite knowing what to do.
"Who's this little squirt's parents by the way? That guy Denny said he aint the father."
His stomach was protesting loudly now, but he didn't want to just let the kid run off and possibly get hurt.

Martel looked at Markus before answering Barry's question. "Havoc and Hawkeye. Jean's at the club where we work and Hawkeye's been gone for a while" she told him, rolling her eyes as Arden pulled free of her grip and ran over to Nikolai, smacking him on the head.
In response to his other question, she had to think a little. After a moment she had an answer, "Well, there's Scar---but he's only dangerous if you piss him off. Actually, he's the only person I'd really worry about besides Arden over there".

((FTW. Did you just write "Havoc and Hawkeye"?!))
"Hm. Well, I was wondering...Y'know, since I havent eaten for some time..." He gestured weakly at the child in his arms.
"If it isn't a problem could you hold him for a sec while I get myself something? I think you're aware of how long I must've gone without food."
At the second mentioning of scar, he narrowed his eyes.
"Hm...scar is it? Aint he some crazy Ishbalan guy with a tattoo on his arm?"
He could remember it all too well.

Martel nodded, both in response to his question about Scar and whether she'd hold Markus. She took the young infant out of Barry's arms and into her own. "Yeah, Scar's the alchemist-killer from Amestris. Though, he's actually done a lot less killing over here" she told him, glancing for a moment at Nikolai, who was still being smacked by his sister.

"Hm." He was feeling slightly uncomfortable at the mention of killing again.
Heck, he was a mass murderer. But right now he was on foreign ground.
"Thanks." He said weakly, turning to raid the fridge as the Dennt guy had advised him to.
There was a few slices of ham, and along with some bread he found in the cubboard made a rather boring sandwhich.
To be honest, he didn't care. This was the first meal for years, and by god he was gonna enjoy it.

Markus shifted his bottle into one hand, using Barry's body to balance it and flailed his free arm at the two children. Mostly because one of them had tried to free him, in his mind, but he couldn't make out which fuzziness was who yet.
Denny leaned against the kitchen counter, watching the conversation with interest. Martel really wasn't a mother to be messed with, yet he doubted he'd need to tell Barry that.
"The people in this house, regardless of how life was back in Amestris, will either let you do your own thing or use you as a sacrifice. And either way, you'll all be sitting happily at the dinner table the day after." He patted the man's shoulder with a grin, trying to give the guy some hope.

((Good lord. I just realized that I in no way whatsoever can rp Barry as evil xD He was much easier to rp when he was the psycho waddling trashcan with nothing to loose. LOL.))
Barry smiled rather nervously at this.
After all, how could he promise that he wouldn't do the very same?
"Hm...Well, I'll cope somehow. After all, this is a new world, though of course I know near to nothing about it."
The last words came out muffled because he had taken a bite of his sandwhich.
It was of a rather meager taste, but to him it was amazing.
He finished off chewing and swallowed before continuing.
"How similar is this world to Amestris?"

"I'll be back later." Martel said simply as she picked up Nikolai and grabbed Arden's hand. The boy seemed relieved to be out of her abusive sibling's reach as his mother led them out of the house.
-----------
JD facepalmed as he realized he'd been flirting with his cousin. "Ashley! Seriously how am I supposed to recognize you? You get plastic surgery every other week it seems".
The young girl smiled slightly, taking out a make-up kit and applying more blush to her already burning red cheeks.

Denny scratched his chin in thought.
"Well, there are people, buildings, animals. Transportation methods have vastly increased. Almost everyone owns a car and otherwise they use buses, which is like really big cars owned by the state here. This place is thus technologically more advanced." Which had made life a lot easier, plus free time was way more fun now, what with the huge tv and game consoles. "Oh and there's no Alchemy here." He waved his hand a bit.

*Marcoh's Office*
It was good that Martel had decided to start walking to the doctor's instead of waiting for Shaun to pick her up at the house. Otherwise she would no doubt be late as hell. Now she was waiting for Marcoh to get into his office. The children were entertaining themselves: Nikolai by chewing on tongue depressers and Arden by making dolls commit suicide.
----------
"Hey, Jean" Rachel called, coughing slightly. "Can you get that girl out of here? She's spraying enough perfume to give everyone here lung cancer". With that she motioned to Ashley, who was indeed spraying herself with a ton of perfume.

Barry swallowed again, digesting this new information.
"No alchemy huh? Good riddance I say. Hate that stuff. Causes nothing but trouble." He said inbetween mouthfuls.

As if suddenly noticing the new person in the house, Bandit ran over to Barry barking like mad. The small terrier than sniffed the poor man all around his ankles. Once she finished with that, she growled at Barry like he was an enemy worthy of being destroyed.

Barry paused, glancing at the angry canine.
"Easyyy there, I ain't invading no territory on purpose."
He crouched down, though not to close to the dog, so as not to seem so threatening.
"Who's this lil buggar?" he inquired cheerfully. He had always loved dogs.

Bandit just continued to growl at Barry until Greed came into the room, calling the dog over to him.
"Who the hell are you?" the homunculus asked the butcher, raising an eyebrow. He hadn't seen this guy before and was seriously wondering what he was doing in the house.

Barry raised an eyebrow also, and glanced at the strangers hand, on which was a irritatingly familiar tattoo.
"Great. Just what I need, another sin probably plotting to ruin my life." He said loudly, smiling politely at the guy.
"For your information, I'm Barry the Chopper. Killed 23 innocents in Central. Hurled into this world a few hours ago, and I have no idea how and why."
He stood up, and made a mock bow "And you might be?" he said coldly, offering his hand.

"Nice to meet you" Greed said with a slight smirk. "You can just call me Greed. I can see you've already met Bandit here". With that he looked down at the dog who was still growling at Barry like mad.

Barry nodded silently, a small smile twitching at the corner of his lips.
"I see."
He glanced down at the growling dog.
"Yes, we met."

Greed shrugged slightly, looking down at the dog. "Hey, Bandit. Why don't you go attack some rabbits outside?" he suggested to the terrier who darted off in search of a way out of the house. Turning back to Barry, the Homunculus sighed. "Sorry about that. She belongs to my daughter."

Barry continued eating his samwidch, his face clearly describing a typical "o rly?" expression.
"There seems to be a lot of kids around here." He managed.

"Yeah---five I think. My kids, the old hag's daughter, Elysia Hughes and her little brother, and Havoc boy" Greed said, going to over to the fridge and grabbing a beer. He looked over at Barry and asked if he wanted one.
