"You've reached Winry Rockbell! I'm sorry I'm not here to take your call.

...If this is Ling Yao, no, I won't marry you.

...If this is Edward Elric, what did you do to my automail now?

Please leave me a message, and I'll get back to you as soon as I can!"


[OOC: Please tell me which game you're contacting Winry about! Thanks.]

That's what I usually get! Or the soup in the bread bowl. It's really good, especially the chili.

[Winry links her arm through Bella's to lead her to the counter.]

They make their own sodas here. And teas.

[cleptes]

That does sound good.

[Bela tries to think of what she was going to order as she is brought up to the counter.]

I think I will try one of their homemade teas.

[hands4healing]

[The barista takes her order and Winry's and gives them a little number teepee to take with them to their table.]
Someone will bring your drinks to your table. You can sit everywhere.

So where do you want to sit, Bela?

[It's a sweet little cafe, with bright, big windows and cute little tables with some fresh flowers in tiny vases.]

[cleptes]

Hm.

[She looks around the cafe for a few moments, trying to decide where would be the best place to sit.]

By the window, maybe? I like the light and looking out at the people as they walk by. I did it back home.

[hands4healing]

It's always good to sit in the sun. [Even with a window between the light and you.]

And people watching is fun!

[Winry gestures to a couple of open tables, waiting until Bela sits before she does. The chairs are comfortable enough. Winry settles and drops her messenger bag into one of the empty chairs at their table.

Their barrista brings them their drinks and assures them their food will be coming soon.]

This is a good place to stop. It's on the way to nearly anywhere I want to go in town.

[cleptes]

[When Bela sits down, she carefully places the bag she was carrying down by her feet. She'll pass it over to Winry in a little while.]

It does seem quite central to a lot of places. Which is handy if you need to run a few errands in the town.

[She did do a lot of her errands in Maurtia Falls but it was always nice to go somewhere different.]

[hands4healing]

And I can pick up different things here than in Florida. It's amazing how different some foods are here compared to there!

Different kinds of sandwiches and different foods! Like the fruit here is different than in Florida. I know that's because of the temperatures - some plants don't grow well in the heat and some need a cold season.

[Her enthusiam dims but only a little bit.]

You probably know that already.

[cleptes]

I know of it, but it doesn't mean I understand everything about it either. I'm no farmer nor a gardener.

[She laughs a little.]

How lucky we are to be able to have access to different varieties of food. It's amazing.

[hands4healing]

It is!

[Winry appreciates good food. Perhaps not as much as a certain prince back home but still.

The barrista brings over their food and smiles, making sure they have everything they need before leaving them to eat.]

There are so many different things here. It's really fascinating!

[Gosh, her enthusiasm could be exhausting...]

[cleptes]

[Well, her enthusiasm certainly made a change from other people that Bela knew.]

All part of the experience of being in this place.

[Bela reaches down for the bag she put down on the ground, setting it on the middle of the table.]

This is for you. It's a collection of alchemy books from my shop.

[hands4healing]

Oh - oh, thank you, Bela! That's really kind of you!

[She's so pleased.]

There are so many!

got them plans for me yet

[hands4healing]

[What a foolish question.]

Yes! When would you like to get them?

[cleptes]

Figured it was the least I could do after you helped me. You're welcome.

[She takes a sip from her drink.]

I'm glad you like them.

[hands4healing]

I do, very much! [Winry beams. All these books, all the information.]

[cleptes]

Good. Let me know if they come in handy.

[hands4healing]

I will!

[She's so excited.]

[cleptes]

Excellent. [Bela gives her a smile.] Do you enjoy the work you do here?

[hands4healing]

Mm. I work for Tony Stark's company. It's really great!

Re: Text

[orions_shadow]

afternoon

tomorrow

want me to bring food?

Re: Text

[hands4healing]

Food would be good. I like everything.

[cleptes]

And what kind of company is it?

[hands4healing]

He runs an engineering tech studio. [Well, it's certainly bigger than any shop Winry's ever seen. Maybe God Studios back home, but she's never had the honor to visit.]

I work in the development and design department but I'm really doing what I did back home - build arms and legs for people who need them.

[Winry hesitates but it's more to catch her breath. This part really excites her.] I've been working on designing an eyeball for people who can't see!

[cleptes]

[It would appear that Winry was doing something really worthwhile in this place. Good on her. Bela wasn't that kind of person.]

That sounds very exciting and a good project to work on. You've also got the skills for it so you might as well make the most of them, yeah?

Hey, Winry. This is Newt Geiszler. If you're still up for the project, I was thinking mid-month for our first test run. The fifteenth good for you? Afternoon, and I'll make sure Hermann doesn't have a heavy lunch.
