It was the first time Envy attended the human dinner, without disguise. Of course, he didn't really need to eat or drink. He joined only because he lived in a Roy's house who invited them all to dinner. Although in the fact, he also wanted to see how they react when they saw he had dinner with them.
But, no one reacted as Envy expected. They just say hello (hi, Envy!), and chatted with one another, as if Envy's frequent dinner with them.
As if he were a human.
And although it felt somewhat comfortable, he was also surprised. Hellooo, there is a homunculus here! Are human so easy to release their awareness?
But it seems there was one person watching him. Since the beginning of dinner, a little girl with a cat . . . oh, no, the panda on her shoulder, occasionally looked at him with a child-like wonder. And after that, she would whisper something into her panda.
...
"It's strange, Shao Mei, I can't sense it too."
That girl looked at Envy again.
"Usually I can sense it from everyone, even homunculus. But this . . ." Mei Chang frowned.
Shao Mei make some gesture.
"Talk to . . . him? Well . . . okay."
...
May Chang turned to Envy, "Envy, can I ask you something?"
Envy shrugged, "then ask."
"Are you male or female?"
...
". . . . ."
". . . . ."
". . . . ."
". . . . ."
". . . . ."
Silent for a moment. And then,
"OF COURSE HE IS A MALE, YOU STUPID BEAN!" Edward yelled.
"OH YEAH? SO WHY HE LOOKS LIKE A FEMALE TOO, YOU SHRIMP!" said May Chang
"I thought he is a female." Winry whispered to Riza.
Riza nodded, "me too!"
"Of course he is a male," Al said, "look at his shoulder."
"And his chest." Roy Mustang continued.
"But that curve," Jean Havoc stared at him, "it should belong to woman!"
"I bet he is genderless." Thought Scar.
"I know, I know!" Ran Fan claps her hand, "he must be bigender! What do you think, young master?"
"Huh? Who cares? I'm not planning to marry him or her."
"He is definitely male!"
"Female!"
"Male!"
"Female!"
"Genderless!"
"Bigender!"
"A sissy?"
This was too much for Envy.
"SHUT UP YOU ARE ALL IDIOTS!" He hit the table, and broke it at the same times. Everyone fell silent.
"Actually, I'm supposed to be neither male nor female. But, if you are talking about my daily form, I'm male! Understand?"
"Ooh . . ." They all nodded.
"So . . . you are a male?" Edward asked.
"NO! Didn't you hear his explanation? He is genderless!" Winry complaint.
"But his daily form is a male!"
"But actually he is genderless!"
"Male!"
"Genderless!"
"Male!"
"Genderless!"
"MALE!"
"GENDERLESS!"
Debate continues. And Envy, in the middle of the quarrel, sighed.
"Geez, how can I live with these people?"
YAY! This is my first fanfic! Sorry for my horrible grammars *sigh* I need more practice.
Well, actually I'm a HUGE Naruto fan, and made my account to write naruto fanfiction. But I was just watching FMA Brotherhood and then read the manga to finish, and it's freakin' cool! Edward is my favorite character and Envy is my favorite villain character, and May Chang is my favorite female character. (Oh, I'm rambling again). Well, please review and suggestion to make it better.
PS: Do you realize that in the last line, Envy used the word 'people' instead of 'human'?
