They were on their way home.
It was a stop on their way to somewhere, unfortunately, not presently a permanent halt to their journey. Edward required some much needed maintenance on his automail on occasion. If not at regular intervals, it was unlikely to sustain the stress he put on the pieces prettttty much every day. It wasn’t entirely his fault. Their lives were very trying. Sometimes, in order to survive the onslaught, force needed to be used. And unfortunately, sometimes all that hard work Winry put into the pieces was ruined in one swift motion.
They weren’t in dire straights for the moment. When given a brief reprieve from Edward’s business with the state, they did try to come home when they could. It didn’t always work out that way.
Silence ensued between them, Alphonse distracted by the beauty of the surroundings. It was getting on closer to the cooler seasons, when the leaves changed color and the ground was blanketed in snow. He could barely remember the way that time of year felt. The unique smells that permeated the air, like a natural perfume. Sweet and warm and gentle.
“Are we going to visit mom?” He asked aloud, eyes still focused ahead to nothing in particular. Maybe he wasn’t actually looking at anything. Maybe he was just trying to focus on all the many thoughts bouncing around up there.

Naomi Yuu’s weekend was coming to an end. And she had done little to nothing. Ah, well, yes... she had cleaned up the apartment, tidying up all the nooks and crannies so the place was well kept when her father returned for a brief amount of time. She had cooked herself small meals here and there, had laid face-up on her bed to stare at her boring ceiling... she had day dreamed about a few things as well, watched a little bit of television and read a few words in a few different novels she found around her home.
And yet .. she felt like she had done nothing and had, in a way, wasted her weekend. It was fading away from between her very finger tips as she sat on her bed, sighing to herself. She had already completed the home work given to her for her weekend about an hour ago. What do I do now?.. I don’t feel like playing any games.. She thought to herself, a stern expression drawing upon her complexion.
A very abrupt ringing stuck the silence of her room, causing the young girl to jump in her clothes. Blinking in confusion, her head darted left and right to find the source of the noise. It was her cell phone, buzzing and singing loudly from her desk. Grabbing at it, she flipped it open and answered. “Hello?” She waited. It was her father calling to give her information on when he would be home. It seemed the date he told her was going to be pushed off.. she could feel a part inside of her sink, a bit of sadness coming over her. Nodding silently and passing a few words back and fourth with her father, she promptly hung up the phone and decided to call it a night. Maybe a good night’s sleep and a hard-day working at school would be enough to bring her hopes up. It was only three more days... she could be patient.
She wasn’t exactly expecting some sort of pop quiz first thing the the morning. Her mind wasn’t ready for that kind of use! But she somehow got through it with a portion of confidence. At the very least.. she didn’t fail. Or at least, she truly did hope she didn’t.
Lunch had been much more pleasant however. She had purchased herself some juice from the machine and sucked it down quite hungrily. The rest of her classes went off without a hitch and she left school promptly after the bell had rung. She had no other responsibilities to attend to so she saw no reason to stay too long.
It was when she had gotten home that she.. was a little surprised. There was actually some hustle and bustle going on. There were people peeking out of their windows and their doorways. People are walking around her apartment complex.. it was the weirdest thing ever since nothing really happened in this part of the area. But now there surely was.. and she was soon to discover that it was due to some person moving in. Darting around and dodging the people that wouldn’t get out of her way, she hurried up the stairs with her head down, only to realize that she was about to walk head-first into the same newcomer that everyone was riled up about.
Looking up with a bit of shock, she immediately took one loud stomp backwards. “I... uh.. sorry..”
