03 – Out to play


Alphonse loves children and loves playing with them. Children, young ones, often see past his armour and see the child, like them, that resides inside. They accept him more than adults, the adult that he has to act like and hates all the same. He never tires of seeing pictures of Elysia, seeing her grow, seeing her play and laugh, even though it hurts him to see her do things he left behind years ago. He treasures the photo of Elysia, tired after a day of playing with him and Edward, draped across his armour, his body, sleeping peacefully with a smile on her face that Alphonse mirrors in his mind.
