001 Enter the Alchemist

[snacklist]

[Sometime after the initial panic of finding himself in a strange place where books talked at you when you opened them, there were no Homunculi or anyone familiar at all, and... everything ever; much later at night after things have started to sink in, there is a polite sounding voice over the journals after a self conscious throat clearing.]

Good evening! My name is Alphonse Elric and... do any you know Brother? His name is Edward and he's the... [little] ...alchemist with a red coat.

[What more can he really say? This is still so overwhelming and ridiculous.]

...I hope I can meet you all in person soon, talking over... a book seems a bit impersonal for a first meeting. [And then, in case that made anyone think he didn't want to talk now, he hastily added:] But it's nice to meet you anyway.

[ooc: Open to all]

[He chuckles softly, the sound quite tinny and hollow.]

Those are some great descriptions, there's no way I'd ever miss them now.

[goldencirclet]

That's great! Thank you!

...are y'speakin' in a can?

[snacklist]

[Ahah... ha... ha.]

Um, no, not exactly.

[goldencirclet]

Oh, okay. Maybe it's the new journals.

[snacklist]

...new journals?

[goldencirclet]

There used t'be a lot written in them, but now all the old stuff's gone.

[snacklist]

Oh.

That's not a good thing, I hope it gets found.

[goldencirclet]

Maybe it was just runnin' outta pages.

[snacklist]

I like that idea, it's less sad than knowledge disappearing.

[goldencirclet]

Yeah! So it just had t'make more room, y'know?

[snacklist]

You'll have to try filling it up again!

[goldencirclet]

I should make new drawings in 'em fer people.

[snacklist]

You're an artist? I'd love to see some drawings.

[goldencirclet]

I ain't an artist like Nora but I like to draw... I'll draw ya somethin'!

[snacklist]

Wow, thanks, Goku!

[goldencirclet]

Here y'go!



It's me an' my pet called Pillow. He ain't that big, though.

[snacklist]

Wow, that's really good! What kind of animal is Pillow?

[goldencirclet]

He's a tribble! I've never heard about tribbles before but he's real nice an' purrs.

[snacklist]

I've never heard of a tribble either, but it sounds so cute!

[Ahh, he's already in raptures.]

[goldencirclet]

I'll show him t'ya!

[snacklist]

Really? Thanks!

[goldencirclet]

Where are ya?

[snacklist]

[Insert room number here, as he doesn't have one yet.]

[goldencirclet]

Okay! I'll be right over!

[snacklist]

[And there's a 7'3" suit of armour opening the door.]

Hi!
