Furu: -smacks Ed- I am not a drunk... I just can't hold.. to many too well.
Ed: Rrrright, and I'm a friggin' Saint.
Well I guess This is Growing Up
The sixteen year old reasonably short blonde haired golden eyed state alchemist was walking slowly down a hallway to the Christmas party within the Central Cities H.Q. .His name, Edward Elric the Fullmetal Alchemist also known as Hagane no Renkenjutsushi. Ed's younger brother Alphonse Elric ,a six-foot-six suit of armor dressed in nothing but a purple apron with a chalk box attached to his right thigh, clanked along silent but happy beside him. Alphonse was quite soft spoken for a suit of auto-mail armor, however Edward was just the opposite loud and crude and always jumping to irrational conclusions at pointless times.
Both the boys were slightly unamused at the prospect of a Christmas party. No doubt that Lieutenant Colonel Roy Mustang would be womanizing, plus the fact that Christmas time was slightly awkward for them. Hoenhime, or as some of the fellow Fanfic readers call him Hoho Papa, left the boys at a very young age as well as their mother did, Trisha Elric. So they never really liked Christmas when it came around and knocked them on their asses minusing the fact that Winry made them go shopping with her but unfortunately she always forgot her own money.
The boys made a left at a new corridor and then a right, and then one more left when they had finally reached the cafeteria. It was hot within the large room because of the excessive amount of dancing and non-dancing people. It was decorated solemnly with white and blue twinkling lights. The two boys found an empty table left of the dance floor and plopped down on chairs opposite each other. Ed tilted his head to the side as he rested his elbow on the white linen table cloth his hand palm up as he rested the side of his face upon it, he listened to the joyous sounds of classical Christmas songs being played by a big-band styled band that was playing on the recently erected stage. Ed's eyes glittered some as he watched his fellow military operatives dance about. Al was the first to speak between the two.
"So, brother," Al said as he glanced down at his older brother, his hands on his lap"What do we do now?" he asked questioningly.
"Sit here, I guess." Ed sighed then shifted his position stretched out and slouched down in the chair putting his hands behind his head "I really don't know."
"Ah Hello boys!" camea happly drunkenvoice from behind Ed, it was that of Lieutenant Colonel Roy Mustang, his raven black hair ruffled up and sticking out in numerous places a wide grin on his face accompanied with red cheeks. "Can I have a sit FullMetal, or are you saving that seat for a woman?"
Ed turned in his seat sharply not trying to completely outburst in a overdramatized fit of rage. His right eyebrow twitched in anger as he replied"Of course," Ed glare at Mustang who just hiccuped" none of these damned people are going to sit here!"
"Oh Good!" said the Colonel continuing to smile as widely as he possibly could, he the pulled out a chair for his brown hair cat-eye female companion.He then took the seat that he left inbetween his friend and Edward."So, FullMetal, aren't you going to be a gentlemen and introduce yourself to Houri?"asked Roy in an annoying tone before leaning over to houri and nuzzling into her neck.
"Hello Houri." Ed sai nodding to the familiar girl then glaring at Roy with a frown on his face thinking to himself "Can't he wait ti'll they're out of my sight, damn!" "Colonel, Houri and I have met before!" he said slightly disturbed at how Roy was almost molestling the pretty young female officer.
"Hello Ed?" replied Houri through a fit of giggles as well as Roy who she now was trying to push off of her lap.
"Oh, Yes, I'd forgotten" replied Roy after clearing his throat."So, Why arn't you dancing with a pretty lady Full Metal?" said Roy as he smiled evilly and turned around to face Ed as he continued to sit on Houris lap.
"Thats none of your business you, pompus bastard!" Ed blinked as his face turned red his eyebrow only slightly twitching.
