"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.]

[She's not Den, he knows that but Zoey would make a good companion. The dog is already happy here in the house and Al knows that Ed won't make them get rid of her.]

I thought maybe it would be nice to have a pet around the house.

[Al doesn't say it's because he knows she was missing Den. But if he could smile at the sight of the two of them, he would be.]

[Zoey starts licking Winry's hand then steps onto her legs and licks her face. Winry giggles, but doesn't try to fend her off.]

Hey, you're friendly!

[The slinky dogs back home weren't this friendly, but they worked for their living. Winry manages to distract Zoey by pointing at the ball on the ground near Al, and Zoey raced across to grab it.]

It would be nice!

[Ed wouldn't argue...much, but they did have another roommate, America.

Winry smiles at Al.] We have to make sure someone's always able to take care of her, though.

[Al watches the two of them together and is definitely thinking to himself that this was a good idea, no matter what might happen in the future.]

A lot of the working dogs are used at farms here but not all of them. Some people take them in as pets.

[He gets it. Sometimes Al would just sit and watch the dogs herd the animals back in Risembool.]

Don't worry, I already took care of that. If all of us leave then there's a native family that will take her in.

[Winry leaped to her feet to give Al a hug.]

Thank you so much, Al!

She's beautiful.

[He hugs her back gently.]

You're welcome, Winry. I'm glad you like her.

I do, very much!

[Zoey runs over with her ball, dropping it at Winry's feet. Winry let go of Al to pick up the ball, flinging it across the yard.]

Thank you, Al. Again.

Maybe you could take her to work with you, that way she has company during the day.

[Since it seems like Ed is trying to start up a business and get away from milk delivery.

He just nods when she thanks him again.]

I'd like that! And she would, too.

You really are the best, Al. [Grabbing up as high as she can, she half-leaps so she can give him a kiss on the cheek of his helmet.]

She's already well trained so you wouldn't have to worry about that.

[Oh. He hasn't forgotten that once, several years ago, he had a crush on Winry.]

She's wonderful, Al. I can't even tell you how much it means to me that you got her for me.

You don't have to, Winry.

[He can tell that she could use some companionship in the form of an animal. She's not Den but that's okay.]

[Oh, Al. She's going to make you such an apple pie and give you such a hug as soon as she can.]

Do you want to take her for a walk?

[Both will be happily accepted.]

Sure! We can take her to the park.

C'mon, Zoey! Let's get you leashed up and take you for a walk!

[Zoey ran around in circles but stopped in front of Winry, barking.]

[He moves to the porch and scoops up her leash which he hands over to Winry.]

It's a good thing that it's nice all year here. We won't have to walk her in the snow.

[Winry hooks the leash to Zoey's collar.]

Snow... [She shivers.] Ugh, Briggs was so cold! I can't believe I just wore tights up there. What was I thinking?

[Oh, right, about Ed's arm and leg.]

Border collies are the cutest!

I'd like to have another one some day, but for now, I'll stick with terriers.

growing up I had dogs but now I have cats. they are wonderful

We always had barn cats til we moved to Florida.

I'd be afraid to have any animals in Florida.

I only had problems once...when my terrier killed and ate a coral snake.

oh wow, that's terrible

It was. I'd lost another dog to old age just a couple of months prior, so it was hard.
