Ed slumped onto the sofa.

"A hard day Al," he said pulling his shoes off his feet, "But we finally got them,"

Ed held a small box out in front of him.

"Yes brother. I'm sure it was worth the trouble though." Al replied, bringing him a glass of orange juice.

"Yep."

Al came and sat beside his brother carrying a box the same as his.

"Right let's open them." Ed grinned clapping his hands together and forming a knife on his auto-mail arm.

The two brothers ripped the boxes apart and pulled out... their shiny, new... iPod's!

Ed's face lit up. Ever since they had heard about them while visiting their friends Lizzie and Maxine they had wanted one. Now they finally had one their lives were complete! The brothers were ecstatic!

"I need to get angry birds on mine!" Ed yelled running across the room to a plug on the wall so he could charge it.

"I'm going to get Facebook so I can talk to Winry and Rosé!" Al said holding down the on button triumphantly. He knew it was pre-charged.

"Hey!" Ed yelled, "You better not flirt with either of them Al! You know I like them! Well I suppose you can flirt with Rosé."

If Al could blush, he would have done.

"I don't want to flirt with either of them brother. I just want to keep in touch. That's all." Al mumbled.

"Well good because we don't have time for girls anyway." Ed pointed out while furiously tapping his screen.

"Yes brother." Al whispered, "Brother you're gonna break it if you keep hitting it that hard!"

Ed stopped and took a deep breath.

"They did warn us that we would have to be patient." he said putting the iPod on the floor next to him.

"Brother,"

"Yes Al," Ed said staring at his screen.

"I can't get it to work."

Ed looked up.

"Oh," Ed said as it dawned on him, "It's heat sensitive and with you being made out of metal, well you have no heat."

"Oh..." Al sighed glumly.

"It's okay though Al!" Ed smiled, "You can use the heat producing gloves that are in my room."

"Why do you...?"

Al didn't finish. He decided not to bother asking because he probably wouldn't get a simple answer anyway. He walked up the stairs and returned with a pair of white 'heat gloves'.

When the brothers had finally got their iPods set up they went on the app store.

"Al?"

"Yes brother?"

"What apps are you going to get?"

"Um not sure. Definitely Facebook and probably some sort of reading thing. Why?"

"I can't decide what to get."

Ed sat back on the floor and picked up his iPod. He clicked on Notes and began to write out his recent alchemic findings. It then popped into his head.

"Al, do you think they have an alchemy app?"

Al looked up from his book about robots and dragons and thought.

"They might do, they do say apple have an app for everything..."

Ed considered this for only a second before proceeding to type 'alchemy' into the search box. After a few seconds some apps popped up.

"Al, they have an alchemy app!" Ed told him excitedly, "And it's free!"

Ed clicked on the green install icon by the side of the logo. He waited patiently, twiddling his thumbs until it had fully installed.
