Characters: Edward Elric and YOU.
Setting: Wherever. Ed's just wandering around. c:
Format: Either is fine! I'll follow you.
Summary: Set immediately after this thread. Ed and Sollux have parted ways and he'd really like to know more about where he is. :|b
Warnings: Ed's mouth. That's about it for now.

Ed and Sollux had parted ways and he, for one, wasn't complaining. He had more important things to do. Things like finding out if this letter was for real. Somewhere in this tower he would find what he was looking for. I mean, Amestris couldn't be gone... right?

[wat. his brow furrows if they all weren't related he would eat his shoe. he's done it before. once. but, well, yeah.]

I take it you two are related to Sollux?

Related to that kid?

[ one is grinning and the other is mostly neutral. mostly. that doesn't mean a thing, as it can change at the drop of a hat. ]

Can't thay we are!

[.... ooooookay. Ed is pretty sure you're lying. Because that doesn't make sense.]

Really. [NOT AMUSED GUYS.]

[ now both of them are grinning. turn around now while you still can, Edward. ]

Well, you thee... We only jutht met him. Trollth don't have biological relativeth like humanth do. No brotherth. No thitherth. No parentth either. Thometimeth there'th a guardian, or cuthtodian.

Or you can thtop being a thimple minded wriggler and acknowledge the probability of other univertheth and realitieth eckthithting thide by thide.

[ Castor circles to the left, Pollux around to the right. yeah, they're closing in. trapping Edward in between the both of them.

also speaking in unison!!!!! ]

Technically thpeaking, in other wordth, we are Tholluckth.

Simple minded wr -- ?!

[AND SUDDENLY HE IS VERY, VERY UNCOMFORTABLE.]

Never said I didn't believe it was possible.

[oh and the speak in unison! awesome. only not.]

[ hey there, kiddo. just how short are you right now? ]

Then why atthume in the firtht plathe?

[5... 5'2-3ish. but that 5'3 might only be because he has that one antenna hair that he totally take into account. i mean. sob.]

Because where I'm from, looking exactly like someone else means you're related.

[ awesome! perfect armrest! ]

That'th not how it workth either. Looking eckthactly like thomeone maketh you a twin. Being related giveth you a likenethh, but it'th thtill not a match.

[NO. HE IS NOT AN ARMREST. He'll be attempting to duck out of the way now to stand across from the two of you. Not furniture. kthx.]

Didn't know I had to be so specific.

Termth uthally define thpethific thingth... Tho why not?

[ nope. no escape for you, Ed. look at those claws. do you really want that on your good shoulder? ]

[... no. no he does not. he conveniently forgot about those until he felt them digging into his shoulder. he inhales sharply and freezes. he would really like to keep his two remaining limbs, ok? ok.]

True, but even identical twins aren't completely the same. Their personalities are different, maybe one has a slightly bigger nose than the other or has a gap in their teeth while the others are perfectly straight. Twins are still related, they're not the same person.

We are.

[ the answer is just that simple. one mind. two bodies. they are the same. so when one taps a claw into that METAL shoulder, the other's ears perk up. ]

Now that'th not natural.

[ after a beat: ]

Can you move it? On your own?

[ooc: ... is what a thing? the twin thing? um, well my aunts are identical twins and they are very, very different from each other. Two of my friends are identical twins and... that is actually how I was able to tell them apart when I first met them: one's nose is bigger, the other has a gap in her teeth. XD;; I FELT SO STUPID BECAUSE I WOULD LIKE. Have to staaare at them for a minute before I talked to them. Talking to a twin about something you did with the other twin is kind of really awkward lol. XDDD IF THIS WAS NOT WHAT YOU MEANT THEN I'M SORRY I WENT OF ON A TANGENT. o/////o

edit: JUST REALIZED I READ THAT WRONG. Whoops. fjdsklfjd]

'Course I can.

[here, he'll show you! he pulls off the glove on his right hand (because really why bother hiding it at this point) and wiggles his fingers, clenches and unclenched his fist, bends it, etc.]

Why wouldn't I be able to?

(( ooc: LMAO NO. it's really okay. i have a few twins as friends, so i do know that. i meant that THESE twins - if you can call them that - are uh... kind of gear heads. 8/ ))

[ note how closely both of them go to look. this isn't a good thing, Ed. run. run now. too bad they have glasses or else, well... the expression would be clear enough. ]

The deckthterity ith pretty amazing.

Theriouthly, what the fuck. The whole arm. How doeth it work?

[ooc: FMDKSLFJDSL LMFAO BRB FEELING LIKE THE BIGGEST IDIOT EVER HAHAHAHAHA MY LIFE I SWEAR I AM THE BEST AT READING COMPREHENSION. I'M AN ENGLISH MAJOR I SWEAR. LOL. ... fffff it's a good thing Ed's used to gear heads XD

ALSO. Should I just... assume there will be two separate tags? XD; I DON'T MIND IT AT ALL, but lol tagging in the middle of tags makes things confusing. XD;]

[.... That uncomfortable feeling. It's back again. Not that it ever left in the first place, but now it's settling down for the night. Unfortunately that feeling doesn't make him move too far. Winry does this all the time and whenever he went to Rush Valley if he was assaulted. But these two... well, he's uncomfortable enough for him to take a step back.]

Yeah, that's my mechanic for you. Winry really knows her stuff.

(( ooc: oops! that was a surprise. derp. ))

[ oh they notice the back step. they look to Ed and take off their glasses, as they realize making unreadable expressions tend to make humans and trolls nervous. ]

Relackth. We're not that big of grubfithting athhholes.

Edited 2011-08-30 01:05 (UTC)

We wouldn't jump you to take your arm apart.

Not without permithhion.

[good call. that was really, really disconcerting.]

I'd really prefer if you didn't. I don't have extra pieces of automail laying around.

[.... oh. oh shit. Winry... Winry isn't here. If anything happens to this arm he is screwed. that tiny hint of panic. DO YOU SEE IT?]

[ welp. that leads them to this question: ]

What happenth if thith one breakth?

...

[rubs his face with his non-metallic hand and closes his eyes. fuck. he just. grumbles. there's a bit of an exasperated groan in his voice.

... Guess I'll have to find myself a new mechanic.

[and saying that hurts more than he thought it would.]
