Yeah, it's been a long while...About a week, right? Sorry! But I had no iternet access for being 'rude' or something to my dad...Sorry bout that... Well, in other news I officially have mononeucleous, so no school for another week. Well, I'm certain to die of boredom. -.- fun. And I have to have a second blood test in a month, my life is overflowing with joy -.-
Berri(magical fluffy anonymous reviewer!) It's not intentional. I have no idea how I make Hitomi that way. It scares me a little. Yes her volcabulary has gotten bigger, by just a little bit :) Thanks, I'm finally feeling better now!
Disclaimer: I own nothing but the experience of watching the wonderfully bloody FMA movie xD
Blue bore into green as moments ticked by in silence.
The girl half risen in blankets strewn across the bed haphazardly, the pillow was teetering on the edge of the bed, considering whether or not to tumble down to the floor.
The boy standing just a few feet into the room, blonde hair still ruffled from sleep, fingers just slipping off the door handle.
"Is speaking a bad thing?" The voice that came from her mouth was clear and confused, her emerald eyes looked up quizzically, her brow furrowed slightly.
Since when did Hitomi act so human?
"Well no, but…" Ryou ran his fingers through his hair, "Well, since when can you speak so well?"
The girl stared up at him, one eye almost closed, forehead wrinkled in thought.
"Well, how should I know?" She asked simply. Ryou sighed and sat down in his creaky chair, a small voice in his mind reminded him to get a new one.
Taking a deep breath he stated plainly, "That's not very helpful," He met her gaze with a flat one of his own.
"Oh," She murmured, "Umm…well, then what would be?" Emerald blinked in the bright sunlight filtering through the window.
"Anything," Ryou sighed, "Anything you can think of about yourself and how you got here,"
"Umm…" Green eyes turned up to the ceiling, she tugged on her bottom lip with a finger in thought.
"Well… I like strawberries!" She exclaimed with a grin, holding up one index finger in accomplishment.
"…That's great," Ryou sighed blankly, slowly slipping off his chair.
"Oh! And I remember…" Her eyes became glazed as a image of dirt littered with a few blade of grass slipped by, "I remember a ant!"
"…Huh…?" Ryou raised one eyebrow and gave her a stupid look.
"Yeah…but that's all, sorry," She shrugged and smiled apologetically.
"Never mind, just forget it," The blonde sighed and trotted out the door, "Oh, breakfast's downstairs," He threw over his shoulder, pausing just inside the room.
He continued on, stuffing his hand in his pockets, glaring down at the floorboards.
She stared down at the rumpled bed sheets for a moment or two longer, then, rising to her feet, she smiled and set about fixing the bed.
"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
Tart launched through the air screaming, finally slamming hard into his target, which toppled to the ground.
"Quit it!" Kish snapped, struggling for release, "I'm not going to give you my strawberries!"
"But you're eating them!" Tart wailed.
"That's what one does with food," Kish told the younger, rising to his feet and promptly eating another fruit.
"Kish, in here." A monotone command floated out of the nearby room to hover in the air for a moment or two.
Sticking his tongue out at the defeated alien boy on the ground Kish paraded into the next room, proudly holding up his basket of strawberries.
"Tests are finished," Pai remarked in reply to the 'swish' of the doors opening, not taking his eyes of the screen in front of him.
"So soon?" Was the sarcastic answer he got, "Didn't you finish a few days ago?"
The olive haired alien reclined mid-air, tossing a strawberry casually into his mouth. After a few moments of silence he sighed in defeat,
"What do they say, Pai?" He asked flatly, glaring over at his silent companion.
"It's a cat,"
"…No really, what do they say?"
"It's a c-"
"Yes but can we expand on that?"
"The weaker spirit of the host body, it is one of a cat, unable to operate the host body by itself it simply provides the cat form,"
There was a pause in which Kish thought really hard about what the other had said, trying to figure it out and Pai started to play tic-tac-toe on his computer.
"So…it's entierly worthless…?" Kish questioned, come to a conclusion of his own.
"Not entirely," Pai looked up for a moment, "Without this spirit the body cannot change it's form or understand and speak the language of cats, nor use any other ability it may have had from being a cat,"
There was another long pause. While Kish thought about what Pai had said, the mauve alien returned to his game of tic-tac-toe on his computer screen.
"So…it's almost entirely worthless…?" Kish asked hopefully, praying to avoid another complicated explanation.
"…Basically,"
"Ah,"
Well there you go. I think that wasn't too bad, was it? Now I have to go before my giant potatoe eats me. Leave a review please!
