I just like writing these. They're. . . therapeutic. You know?
DISCLAIMED right of le bat.
I happen to be very bored right now. . .
What If. . . Falman didn't know everything?
It was a normal day at HQ. Roy was groaning about his paperwork (quietly, so his trigger-happy Lieutenant wouldn't hear him) and generally wishing he were elsewhere.
Just then, Falman walked in. Roy decided this was an excellent excuse to stop signing papers (his hand was cramping, too) and start a conversation.
"Falman!" he said imperiously.
Vato Falman snapped into a salute, impeccable as always. "Sir!"
Roy grinned. "What's the capital of Aerugo?"
(Don't blame Roy for being random. All people are random when bored and desperate to get out of doing boring stuff.)
(Besides, they all randomly quizzed Falman sometimes. He knew this stuff through and through.)
Falman frowned. His eyes glazed over. Sweat beaded on his brow and at his hairline.
Havoc, who was watching the show, grinned. "Come on, Falman, we don't have all day!"
"Just say it, Falman," came the groaned addition from Breda (he had a bad headache).
Fuery smiled politely. "I'd like to hear what the capital of Aerugo is," he said softly.
Riza nodded. "Say it so the Colonel can return to work."
Roy frowned, disappointed that his (admittedly awful) plan had failed.
Falman, meanwhile, was growing steadily more distressed. "I. . . I. . ." He looked at his comrades in horror. "I don't remember."
.

"WHAT?!"
Only Riza managed to avoid passing out from the shock, but she did look rather pale for the next hour or so.
Al glared at Ed, who was smirking viciously. "What did you do now, Brother?"
Ed looked up at the giant suit of armor innocently. "Who, me?"
Al glared.
Ed laughed. "It's just a silly little prank." He smiled as his fingers brushed his pocket watch, his partner in crime. "They'll be fine. . . once they get over the shock. Falman will remember, too."
Al stared suspiciously at his older brother. Something about the way he was fingering the chain from the watch in his pocket didn't settle well with him. . . He shrugged mentally. It was probably nothing. It wasn't like Ed knew how to hypnotize people with that watch or anything. . . THAT would be dangerous.
End
LOL, I feel bad for how misinformed Al is. XD
RFF, my friends! Then I'll write more!
Love ya! lulu
