The Clandestine Ceremony

So he agrees. And yet he still called her here, anyway.

Riza keeps to herself and stands erect. There’s something troubling him, but she never was good with situations like these.

She’s feeling nervous and unsure, but she doesn’t dare let her guard down. Emotions are one thing, and another once they’re broken.

But… maybe, just maybe, he’ll handle her with care. Hasn’t he always?

“Well then,” says the lieutenant, sighing. “What is this about?”

Been busy. Still am busy, in fact. Hopefully I'll be able to do justice to this blog. 

Cheers! See ya around!

The Clandestine Ceremony

[hisxlieutenant]

The colonel seems… different… somehow. His lighthearted demeanor is still present, but the fact that the purpose of this meeting hasn’t been mentioned yet keeps her in constant suspense. Of course, Riza never minded his company. In fact, if it’s possible to stay behind him, covering his back forever, then she would do so, without hesitating.

But his eyes.

Right now, they hold a message that she assumes would change both of their lives forever.

She refuses to think of anything, but knowing what is to come can’t be avoided. The lieutenant knows her colonel too well, and she fears the future and what lies in wait for the two of them.

Yet, she’ll press on.

“I’m here,” said Riza, face stiff but showing hints of a smile. “So no further wait is necessary. Is there something wrong? Two a.m. is a strange time for a meeting.”

[herxcolonel-blog]

"Yes...yes it is."

The colonel seems out of sorts. He's usually smooth when it comes to things like this...why is he speechless now? Must be like this when it's the real thing, eh?

 He shrugs, feeling stupid and helpless.

Yet at the same time, happy -- happy to know that his feelings are genuine. Happy to find proof that this is real.

Always, Lieutenant. Always.

[Roy stared at Mustang quietly. It really WAS who he thought it was. Holy. Shit.]

“…Roy… Mustang… As in Roy Mustang the Flame Alchemist? THAT Roy Mustang? Holy hell, how did my luck hold out enough for me to meet YOU?”

[herxcolonel-blog]

"Yes, I am Roy Mustang, the Flame Alchemist. It is really interesting to know that I am known even in these parts."

One of the reasons he made a tumblr was to find out how much people knew about him. It looks like he is about to find out. It looks like this Roy Fortune is an interesting fellow ... and someone who knows a lot about him.

But that will have to wait. The lieutenant is almost here.

She must not catch me slacking...

[crimsonxheadphones]

//She’s beginning to understand how he became the colonel in his young age, and is being reminded of why she holds a great deal of respect for this man.

“Far from ordinary… yeah, I guess I’ll admit that much.”

//She laughs.

“And—well—if you put it that way, then I just might consider signing up for the military! You’re kind of amazing.”

[herxcolonel-blog]

"HAHAHAHAHAHA! Yes, many have said that I am amazing. Thank you for saying so as well. I am looking forward to your visit, young Miss."

The colonel senses that there's obviously more to this girl than meets the eye and he's determined to find out more about the school club she's in and what 'field work' she specializes in.

Suddenly, he hears footsteps.

HER footsteps.

Shit.

"Uh, Miss Arisato, I'm afraid I must be going. I'll see you again soon. 'Til next time!"

[Roy blinked in surprise. He hadn’t been expecting a military man like this to turn up. Least of all this guy, if he was who Roy thought he was.]

“Uh, hey there. Nice to meet you, sir. I’m Roy Fortune.”

[herxcolonel-blog]

"Greetings, Roy Fortune. I am Colonel Roy Mustang. It's my first time meeting someone with the same name as me."

The colonel is having a good time -- meeting people from different places with different cultures and learning a lot from them is always grand. Little did he know that the lieutenant is almost done with her rounds and is now on her way back to the office.

[crimsonxheadphones]

“Whoa, whoa, whoa. Am I being recruited into the military?”

//she laughs.

“I’m not sure if I’m qualified. Really, what use do you have for an ordinary girl like me? I’d just be a burden on you guys.”

[herxcolonel-blog]

"No use for an ordinary girl? I beg to differ on both counts."

"I haven't known you for long but I believe you are far from ordinary. And also, alchemy is not a requirement for recruitment in the military."

"Loyalty alone goes a long way. One might be surprised at the things a person can do out of loyalty."

[crimsonxheadphones]

“Yeah, it does seem a bit cliche, doesn’t it?”

//she pauses for a moment.

“I’d say I already have a position, say, as an acting leader of… um, a certain field work. I’m not really sure if I should say anything more. Our president might kill me.”

[herxcolonel-blog]

"What admirable loyalty."

//he smirks

"If ever you would consider residing in Amestris, do drop by the Eastern HQ or the Grand Central and I'll see to it that you are secured a scholarship in the academy -- or a position, if you are qualified."

[crimsonxheadphones]

“Ahahaha! That sounds just about right!”

//she can’t help but giggle.

“Oh, um… it’s more like a school club, actually. Mitsuru-senpai is the president, and actually the daughter of a famous corporation. I’d say she holds an authority high above the police, even. She’s… pretty scary when angry.”

[herxcolonel-blog]

"A school club. A daughter of a famous corporation as the president of the school club ... pretty predictable. How about you? Any plans of having a position in the club?"
