It had been a long time since
the younger Elric Brother had
been home and seen his Brother.
He had been studying Alkahestry
with Mei; which required a lot of
time and patients on his end. Not
that he minded; it just took a lot of time.

So long in fact, that Alphonse had
grown into a man since he last was
home. That would explain the strange
looks he had received from Roy when
he had first arrived in Central. He guessed
that people couldn’t believe that he
had grown up. He wasn’t little anymore.
-
Now, Al finally found himself at the front
door of the Rockbell household. He knew
that Ed was there; that’s where the letters
that they sent back and forth were addressed
to. He had told them in his last letter that
he had finished studying and that he was
on his way home; so he had hoped that he
didn’t surprise them too much. So with that,
he took a deep breathe and knocked on the door.
Edward has only returned to Resembol a few days before, after a second trip to Creta. Unlike the first visit he had taken there with his brother once before, he found himself learning about their alchemy. It truly wasn't too much different to Amestrian, but it did have it's own perks.
Returning to the Rockbell house in Resembol truly was a brilliant experience. Pikano served her brilliant stew, Winry checked up on his leg-- sure that wasn't as good as the stew, but still.
The now much taller blond was musing over the notes he had made in the new, leather-bound notebook. That was until he heard a sharp knock, in a recognisable pattern. Al was here. Lifting up a hand to Winry who was heading for the door, Ed got it himself.
"Long time no see, Al!" -- Was said quickly, a large grin on his face, and an arm thrown over his younger brother's shoulders.
