"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.]

[ooc: I'm here but my computer is wonky. :D]

[hands4healing]

Oh, hello Mr. Geiszler! Yes, I can be ready to meet with you both on the fifteenth! What time specifically, so I can tell my housemate and make sure the dogs won't be home alone too long?

[hands4healing]

I hope I'm doing a good job with it. I'd rather help people, encourage them to do better.

[cleptes]

Nothing wrong with that. Other people could probably learn something from your example.

[hands4healing]

[Wide eyes.]

Oh, I'm nothing special!

[ok, we might have Peter Petrelli come along too =D]

[driftsintobuffetline]

Oh! Good, you ARE still in town. Hermann located another medic in case you were away. I know it was pretty short notice. Ahhh, let me get back to you on the exact time, just a second.

[[ooc: we're still doing this, I just need to get ducks all in a row and decide just how. Sorry. IRL has been kind of weird this week. Expect a log...presumably backdated to the fifteenth, in a day or two.]]

[cleptes]

No need to be modest.

[Excellent!]

[hands4healing]

I'm here! [A soft chuckle as she waits for the information.]





[OOC: okay, very cool! I'm looking forward to it.]

[hands4healing]

[Winry takes a drink and considers that for a few seconds before answering Bella. She's quite serious when she does.]

I guess I don't feel I am. There are a lot of people back home who do what I do. I may have different ideas on how things should be designed or how they might work but I'm building on the designs of generations who came before me.

[cleptes]

So you're carrying on their work in a sense. I still think that's important, even if other people started the work. And if you have different ideas, it's a good thing. Maybe you will think of something that they haven't and invent it.

[hands4healing]

I am working on that! I've designed a few new things since I've been here.

[driftsintobuffetline]

[ here we go! Sorry for the delay! ]

Okay, is 3pm good? Looks like we're going to try to do this at work. [Because he is terrible. And Hermann would kill him if it stained the carpet at home.]

[hands4healing]

I'm sure I can be there!

[Well...Tony would either be fascinated or horrified. If he wandered in.]

[cleptes]

Glad to hear it. Hope they work out for you, Winry.

[hands4healing]

Me, too.

[A bright smile.]

And I hope your business takes you amazing places, too!

[cleptes]

That's sweet of you to say.

[She smiles in return.]

I hope it does. It would be nice to see where it would lead.

[hands4healing]

In this world, it seems amazing places or...ah, really strange ones.

[cleptes]

Oh yeah, I can see either of those two happening.

[hands4healing]

So can I.

[All too well.]

[cleptes]

Sounds like you've had experience with it before.

[hands4healing]

[Winry sighs, glancing around, as if to make sure no one was paying much attention. No one seemed to be.]

I've been through some things here. I guess I can't complain, others have been through worse but some of the...events that have happened in this world are a lot worse than back home.

[cleptes]

You won't hear any disagreement from me on how awful the events have been here. Definitely worse than some of my experiences back home.

[Which Bela won't go into at the moment for her own personal reasons.]

Guess no one said that it was going to be an easy ride.

[hands4healing]

Mmm, life generally isn't, here or anywhere.

[cleptes]

That's what makes it interesting though, right? Facing up to that challenge and meeting it head on.

[hands4healing]

Yes, it definitely makes it interesting!

[And sometimes difficult. Very, very difficult.]

[There is a plain white box with a red stick-on bow sitting right by the front door with "Winry" written on a label in scrawling handwriting. Inside the box is the best quality wrench set currently available on the market and a note in that same handwriting signed by Kang saying "I hope this brightens up your Christmas."]
