Marry Poppins

- Lieutenant Hawkeye, the sun is almost gone now… we should stop here for today.

Hawkeye sighed and acknowledged.

- Go, Havoc, I want to stay a little more.

Havoc leaved, letting her without a last stare. She'd use to stay until it was dark, waiting patiently for General Mustang and Colonel Elric. Havoc knew she would hope for years, she would wait them faithfully. No matter what would happen or what people would say. He guessed it was useless to try to convince her, then.

Hawkeye stared at the headquarters again. There was nothing but she was sure she had seen Edward and someone else.

Envy chuckled.

- You should get dressed, now, o'chibi-san, I'm not sure that the military will be glad to see you like this.

Pride stared silently at Envy and started to dress. Envy looked towards the city until he heard a suffocated moan. He turned back.

- Pride ? What the hell… ? Envy stopped, wordless in front of what he was seeing.

Pride had dressed himself but, if Envy had to invent a word for that, it would surely be something like "foolishly-dressed" : Pride had put his pants on his head, boots as gloves and gloves as boots. Envy didn't know, though, how Pride could have done to put his skirt instead of his pants and his butt-skirt around his neck, as a weird blue cape.

Envy sighed and walked toward Pride.

- I guess, my dearest little stupid shrimp, that we have a very, very long way before achieving our aim...

Pride just raised an eyebrow, he didn't see what was wrong with the uniform. Wasn't he wearing it, as he has been told ? So, what's the matter ? How weird, could Envy be, sometimes…

When Hawkeye began to think about coming back to her apartment, she saw two figures walking out of the headquarters. She stared at them, as if she didn't believed what she was seeing.

- Ge… General Mustang ? And colonel Elric !
