"It's so long..." Roy's voice could barely be heard outside his office door, where all four of his male subordinates were now crouched, ears straining to catch every word he said. "...much longer than I would have expected, considering your size."

Alphonse's voice, also emanating from the office, answered, "W-well... Brother's was like that, too. Wasn't it?"

"It was." Roy sounded positively amused. "Though not as broad as yours, naturally. And his was curved. Even still, it was rather nice to handle, when he'd let me."

Fury gasped at this, and both Farman and Havoc clamped their hands over his mouth.

Alphonse's voice cut in. "C-curved? W-well... that is..." Embarrassed silence, followed by, "I... don't really remember what it looked like, and there aren't too many pictures that give me a full view..."

It was at this point that all four men burst into Roy's office. Breda and Fury wanted to confirm their suspicions, whereas Farman wanted to prevent another round of dealing with the Investigation Department.
