A: DORMITORY LEVEL

[Canada has dressed herself in something that is not a skintight catsuit, though her clothes are hopelessly covered with bits of white fur. She's still picking it off as she walks out of Room 1-03]

Kumalila if you had to lay on my things, couldn't you have tried not to shed on them? They're the only set I have...O-Oh tabernac, I'll have to wear that suit again when I wash these--

Kumarika? [spins in a slow circle, dismayed] Oh where did she go now...


B: LIBRARY LEVEL

[A small trail of destruction is leading Canada through the stacks and she doesn't even have time to spy what the titles are of the books Kumariie has knocked from the shelves. Well she assumes it is Kumaria because who else would spend their time knocking books off the shelves? No one that is who. Maybe Sealand. When she's bored.

Either way, the trail is leading her in such a convoluted route that she is sure she will get lost in books and never bee seen again]


C: CAFETERIA LEVEL

[Oh...Oh there she is of course. Food. Food that Canada should probably eat if the rumbling of her stomach is any indication. She slumps down in a chair beside Kumaru and closes her eyes]

I did not need this workout Kumari. Honestly.

He brought the books close to his chest and held onto them. That was... not something he'd ever considered, really. Illegal? It's not like children working was common in Amestris, but it happened.

"But... if they really saved me," he said, "and they--they're letting me stay here, I want to help out. It's equivalent exchange, right?"

She reached out and ruffled his hair, nodding. Maybe he was from somewhere that hadn't gained such laws.

"In my country, you wouldn't have to work until you were 18. It's not about equivalent exchange, it's about common decency."

[greennotgold]

He flinched; he wasn't used to people who weren't Russel doing that.

"But..." Clearly it was different where she was from. And she was an adult; he was just a child. She'd know better, right? "It--it's just some books, though."

Canada pulled her hand back immediately, mumbling an apology before her smile returned.

"Yes, it is just some books. Just don't feel the need to be perfect--Oh, by the way, I am Canada. What is your name?"

[greennotgold]

He fidgeted a little as he answered. "I-I'm Fletcher, ma'am. Fletcher Tringham. It's nice to meet you."

She seemed nice... At least if he had to be trapped here, it was with good people.

"It's nice to meet you as well. If you need any help, I am in Room 1-03."

[greennotgold]

"Thank you," he said. "Um. I, I really appreciate it." Not that he was any less out of place or scared, though.
