[Now that he's gotten over his own embarrassment somewhat-]

...So that's what an experiment is like, huh.

[Okay, maybe not entirely over it. That was beyond humiliating and he doesn't even want to acknowledge it anymore. Ugh.]

Whatever, forget it. I have a question for the people who've lived here longer than me. What kind of escape attempts have already happened here? Has anything worked, or even showed small signs of success? If it's not something you want to talk about over the journals, you can find me at the library.

Thanks in advance.

[...Oh right, before he forgets again-]

And if anyone finds a silver pocketwatch in one of the shops, chances are it's mine. I'd appreciate it if you let me know if you see it.

...Don't look inside, either!

[And as promised Ed will be at the library today, either inside pouring over a dozen books or just outside the entrance, probably munching away at something he pilfered during a visit to the bakery. You know, after he realized he hadn't eaten for seven hours or something. As usual he's probably wearing five different layers despite the heat, the nutter.]

Because if your dumb ass gets hurt, who do you think is keeping Winry on the level?

It's not like I go around looking to get hurt!

My point still stands, so keep it in mind!

You could've said it a little differently!

[Is everything about debts and favours with this chick?]

I decided to state it in the least ambiguous way possible! After all, a lot of people- [-like you-] tend to make some bold moves early on and get busted up for it, so if that happens I'm going to collect.

Tch. [So annoying.] You saying that I should just not bother?

[Of course not; it's why she says if, not when. She's not so far gone to discredit whatever solutions he comes up with. ...But she's also not about to say all that, so there's a little sigh before]

Even if I did, you'd just carry on anyway.

...Yeah, of course. [He's a little surprised by that, and somewhat bothered by the fact that she knows; is she that aware of what he's like, or is he that obvious?]

...W-well I mean it's not like we're friends or anything! You have no reason to listen!

[The awkward got her]

Wha- no one said we were friends! [What the hell kind of a reaction is that!?]

Good! So we're agreed.
