Category: Side Plots
Summary: Apocalypse, Part II. Things get moar srs. The Gate appears, people die, redemption is had, noble sacrifices are made, tears are shed, and the Gate Babies make their bid for world domination. Violence, blood, explosions, zombies, and alchemy.


BIG BOLD LETTERS: THE GATE APPEARS IN THE SKY. IT IS NOT OPEN. ...YET.

Darren: No offense, you don't seem like, *makes clawing motions in the air in front of him for emphasis* grrr fire and brimstone or anything, but... Dying?

Balthamos: This is an old argument. Everything must come to an end. Aren't you ready for your suffering to end?

IC!Sheska: *trying to calm down* But there are so many books I'll never get to read! *more important than anything else*

OOC!Scar: *hadn't seen Ed was hurt; goes a bit paler in the face and shakes his head, looking away* Shit. OK. Not gonna do any good... *looks up to see the Gate in the sky, wiping his eyes roughly*

IC!Ed: *starts struggling back up to his feet, looking back toward the fight and the giant evil thing of doom in the sky, not quite noticing Mal* Everyone- has to get out of there...

OOC!Roy: ... *distracted from the fact that she's more worried about reading books than anything else by the appearance of the Gate; recognises that it's A Bad Thing and breaks into a run, dragging Sheska after him*

IC!Ran Fan: *totally caught off guard, didn't know the extent of homunculus powers, neck is snapped and thuds to the ground dead, knowing she has failed her master*

Darren: My suffering? I don't remember much suffering until all of this crap starting coming down around our ears. I wasn't suffering til that thing bit me and a got a piece of building or some crap stuck next to my kidney.

IC!Al: *staring up at the Gate* I've seen that before.....

Darren: ...And for the record I don't think either of those are mortal wounds, so please don't get any ideas. ...No offense. You seem nice enough.

Adventure!Wrath: *shoves the crystal into Envy, which explodes, burning Wrath and sending him flying back*

IC!Ed: ........ *narrows his eyes at the Gate, starts moving toward it*

Evil!Al: ::looks away from Izumi, staring at the Gate:: ... Shit.

OOC!Roy: *sees Clara and co. and waves, saving his breath for the running*

OOC!Izumi: I've got nothing better to do. Why not just follow my murderer around?

OOC!Scar: Ed, where're you going...?

OOC!Psiren: Ed! Don't make us hit you over the head! HOSPITAL!

Balthamos: *so disgusted with humanity right now* Repent. *curtly; flies away*

IC!Ed: Stay there. *keeps going, eyes locked on the Gate*

Darren: *yelling after him* MAKE ME!

Evil!Al: Hey, I had fun. You didn't have fun? ::smirks, but is paying much more attention to the Gate than to her and is obviously worried by it::

OOC!Scar: *gripping Clara's arm, but without taking his eyes off Ed* Clara, I- uh- *forces himself to meet her eyes* I think the world's ending?

IC!Gluttony: *stares at IC!Al and grins*

IC!Sheska: *is dragged, has never been much of a help in important moments anyway*

Darren: *suddenly decides clinging to the tree and dry-heaving seems like the best plan for right now yes*

OOC!Psiren: *blinks at Mal* Yes Mal. It is. *this is news?*

IC!Envy: *drops Ran Fan, beaming at Wrath* Still want to be human, kid?

OOC!Psiren: *thought she heard a familiar voice yelling, stands up*

Darren: *barfbarfbarf*

OOC!Izumi: You ungrateful child. I can't believe it took me so long to realize how horrible you are.

IC!Ed: *manages to get himself directly underneath the Gate, staring up at it, face pale from losing so much blood*

IC!Al: Ed, stay away from it!!
IC!Al: *running after him, Gluttony will have to deal*

IC!Ed: *looks back toward Al when he hears him* AL, STAY OVER THERE.

OOC!Roy: *reaches the others, completely out of breath, and finally notices that Ed is bleeding and actually heading towards the Gate* What - what's Ed - doing?

IC!Al: NO WAY! *still running*

Adventure!Wrath: *skin slowly healing from the burn but doesn't heal all the way. now officially out of stones. pulling himself up* Not human. I am what I am.
Adventure!Wrath:But I can be a homunculus without being evil. You're nothing but a leech, a glorified parasite.

IC!Ed: *frowns* ALPHONSE, STAY AWAY.

IC!Envy: *snarls, aiming a stab for Wrath*

Evil!Al: ::cracks up:: Don't quit your day job. Oh wait. ::heading back up that fire escape, determined to do something about that Gate::

IC!Ed: *clenches his jaw, puts his hands together, then bends down and makes walls come up and surround him, blocking Al*

IC!Al: What are you DOING!? *draws an array on the wall, going to take it down*

Adventure!Wrath: *now or never, stabs Envy with the crystal and clapping his hands around it. Is stabbed but explodes the crystal inside Envy*

OOC!Psiren: *staring at Ed, Al, and Gate* ...What is that? *shakes her head* Mal, I'm going to find a phone and call an ambulance, since ED IS BEING AN IDIOT. ...Coming or staying?

IC!Envy: *OW, is very burnt and bloodied and generally injured, but grins anyway because he got Wrath right through the liver*

IC!Sheska: *in tears* Hi Clara.

IC!Ed: *staring at the Gate again* I think I can get your body back... And then make the Gate go away...

OOC!Scar: *faintly* I'll stay with you.

C!Envy: *has a badass horse and a flaming crown, oh yeah*

IC!Al: *invisible tears in his voice* Stop it, Ed! You can't do it by yourself!

Adventure!Wrath: *falls onto his chest, bleeding and burnt, dying* Shit. Shit. *looks around for Clara, needs to tell her something*

IC!Ed: ...If it's true that I- caused all of this dimension shit in the first place... I think I probably can.

OOC!Scar: *looked around at the wrong moment; feels that he's going to sick* That's a lot of blood.

IC!Al: Well NOT WITHOUT ME YOU AREN'T! *lays his hands on the array, making himself a door*

OOC!Psiren: *looking harried, holds her hand out to Mal since he don't look so good* Hi Sheska. Sorry, I need to find a phone....

IC!Ed: *looks toward Al again* AL, I SAID TO STAY BACK.

OOC!Scar: Clara, look. *holds her hand tightly, nodding to Wrath*

OOC!Roy: *listening to Ed and Al, frowning deeply* ... Does anyone know wh-what Ed's trying to - to do?

OOC!Izumi: ...You're hilarious! *floats after him, fully intent on following him everywhere*

Adventure!Wrath: *pulls out the stones, knowing he could have one more chance at life but afraid of becoming evil

IC!Al: Ed you idiot, I. WILL. NOT.

BIG BOLD LETTERS: THE GATE STARTS TO OPEN.....

OOC!Psiren: *looks, eyes widening* Adventure Wrath!

Adventure!Wrath: *clenches his teeth* No. *tosses them away* I don't want to be a monster.

Evil!Al: Yeah, well, so- ::freezes at the sight of the opening Gate::

OOC!Roy: *stares at the Gate* Oh, my - *starts walking towards Ed and Al* EDWARD! I think you should come away from there!

IC!Ed: YES YOU WILL- *looks back up as it starts to open*

Adventure!Wrath:*seeing Clara* Clara?

IC!Envy: *healing really slowly and shaking, still has time to roll his eyes*

OOC!Scar: *sees Ran Fan dead and Wrath dying and looks away, swallowing - shit, is that Ed right by the Gate* Ed, don't-!

C!Envy: *notices his double, halting his horse a few paces away and watching quietly*

IC!Sheska: He's trying to close the Gate I think. From what I know of alchemy this is... incredible.

OOC!Psiren: *eyes Envy nervously, thinks what the hell and goes over to Wrath, looking pale* You're not healing very fast.... *worried*

OOC!Scar: *looks at Sheska quickly* You think - he could stop all this?

IC!Ed: *clutches tightly at his wound before moving even closer to the Gate, slowly and deliberately, all serious business*

Adventure!Wrath: *smiles at her* I'm not healing at all. If I eat the stones then I'm no better than Envy. I don't want to live like that.

OOC!Izumi: *looks at Gate impassively* That can't be good.

IC!Al: *while his brother is distracted creeps in through the wall and closes it behind him* How do we do it?

Adventure!Wrath: I wanted to tell you something though. *forcing himself to look at her* I'm sorry. I never meant to hurt you nor any innocent.

IC!Ed: *stops, looks to Al, eyes widening* A-Al- Dammit, Al, I said to go back!!!

OOC!Roy: *stops, not really wanting to get any closer to the Gate but also really wanting to get Edward away from it* Edward! Get away from there - th-that - that's an order!

IC!Al: *staring at the Gate in fascination* Nii-san, where have I seen that before?

Adventure!Wrath: Envy perverted me to something else, and I'm at fault for not resisting it more but I'm glad I can at least appologize to you.

Evil!Al: ::makes his way up to the top of the building and watches the Gate from what he figures is a safe enough distance for now, also looking down at those still below on occasion, unusually quiet::

IC!Ed: ... *grits his teeth, turning back to it* This... thing is what took your body. It- should still be somewhere inside...

IC!Al: *hands on his hips* And you think I'm gonna let you look alone?

IC!Sheska: *blink blink. hopeful* Maybe? *not wanting to admit there is almost no chance*

IC!Envy: *is healing very slowly too, slinking away to somewhere quieter, confused and in pain*

IC!Ed: If I'm the one who caused all this, then I'm the only one who should need to go in... *sways a little where he stands, takes another step toward it*

C!Envy: *follows his double, calling out after a few moments* Having trouble there?

OOC!Psiren: *smiles, pets his hair* It's okay, Adventure Wrath, I know... I forgive you. I... Adventure Wrath, if you don't eat, I think you're going to die.... *blinks back tears*

IC!Gluttony: *really concerned about Bleeding Homunculi, comes closer* Wrath? Envy? DDDD:

Gate: *a flurry of thin black arms shoot out, wrapping around Ed and Al both and hauling them towards the darkness...*

Adventure!Wrath: *cough* I don't want to die but, every stone I eat is several human lives. How could I every justify that? I should have tried harder but I'm out of chances.

OOC!Izumi: *watching Gate, actually shocked* Ed! Al! *confused... those are HER BABIES*

Adventure!Wrath: Gluttony. I'm sorry but I'm going to have to leave. Thanks for being my friend. *looking up at the Gate* Looks like my brothers and sisters are here.

OOC!Scar: *staring at the Gate where Ed and Al were a moment ago* What..? *voice breaking*

OOC!Psiren: *actually crying now* You're right. Oh, you're right. You're so brave. I'm going to miss you!

OOC!Roy: *staggers backwards, horrified* ... Edward ...

OOC!Scar: *covering his mouth with his hand, looks about to pass out*

IC!Gluttony: DDDDDDDD: No, Wrath eat redstone!

Evil!Al: ::is quiet, then shrugs:: Eh, they deserved it, for being idiots.

IC!Envy: *crawling to his feet, clutching at some of the red stones that Wrath threw away and crunching them greedily*

Adventure!Wrath: *couldn't smile wider* Thanks Clara. *to Gluttony* Sorry. I'm not like that any more.

IC!Gluttony: *tries to grab some for Wrath*

OOC!Roy: *just staring at the Gate, not wanting to believe what just happened*

C!Envy: *rolls his eyes* Fine, fine. Ignore me. I was going to see if you wanted to have some fun, but I guess not.

IC!Envy: *lunges unexpectedly at Gluttony, trying to punch him, feeling that this is a betrayal* FUCK YOU.

OOC!Psiren: *crying more, pulls Wrath onto her lap, blood and all so she can hug him*

Adventure!Wrath: *reaching out for the Gate* I was born in the Gate. Now it's time for me to return. *arms drop and last bit of life leaves him. dies*

C!Envy: *oh wait no, this is better than what he had planned, anyway; watches Envy go for Gluttony and grins*

IC!Envy: *breathing very hard, fists clenched* EVEN YOU TURN ON ME?!

IC!Gluttony: *is punched, goes rolling backwards, then stares at Envy, shocked* But... Wrath! *points, then notices he's dead, starts keening*

IC!Envy: Fuck WRATH! Fuck YOU! Fuck ALL OF IT!

OOC!Psiren: *crying, but has presence of mind to start dragging herself and Wrath away from Crazy!Envy*

C!Envy: *begins to wonder if this situation wouldn't be better with explosives*

IC!Gluttony: *clutches head, keening in sorrow and upset at Envy's anger*

OOC!Scar: This isn't happening.

IC!Sheska: *looking up at the Gate* They're gone...?

BIG BOLD LETTERS: GATE BABIES START CRAWLING OUT OF GATE.

OOC!Roy: *stares for a moment, then turns and runs back towards Mal and Sheska* ... I th-think we sh-should maybe get - get away f-from here ...?

IC!Sheska: *nod* Maybe that's a good idea.

OOC!Scar: *nods, not really wanting to say anything at the moment; lays his hand on Clara's shoulder*

OOC!Izumi: *in her own world now, has fallen to her knees* My children....

IC!Envy: *staggering to his feet, spots his double, looking quite manic now*

IC!Sheska: *now noticing all the dead people, gives a surpressed scream*

C!Envy: *finally!* Hello there.

Evil!Al: ::takes bomb out of satchel and tosses it up in the air toward the gate, trying to get gate babies' attention::

IC!Envy: *narrow eyed* Why are you here?

OOC!Psiren: *barely feels a shock at this latest development, looks at Mal and picks up Wrath, tears streaming down her face* Let's go.

IC!Alfons: ::poofs into existence in the middle of the road somewhere nearby, and slides safety goggles up onto his forehead, then rubs it a little, looking around:: Was ist d- ::suddenly recognizes where he is::

Adventure!Wrath: *back in the Gate now, watching everything from above, Gate child again*

Evil!Al: ::heading back down the fire escape as the bomb bursts::

BIG BOLD LETTERS: BABIES ARE DISPLEASED, START CRAWLING IN AL'S DIRECTION.

C!Envy: Why not? I'm a Horseman now. *grins broadly and moves his head to the side, burning crown flaring and shimmering*

IC!Envy: Horseman? *frowns, but is calming down somehow*

C!Envy: Of the Apocalypse. Yeah. Crazy, huh?

OOC!Psiren: *Wrath's body dissolves in her arms, covering her with red goo* .............

IC!Envy: How did you ... ?

IC!Sheska: *following the group numbly, trying to keep from totally shutting down*

BIG BOLD LETTERS: BABIES MOLD THEMSELVES TO MACHINES AND DEAD PEOPLE, ANIMATING THEM.

Evil!Al: ::looks up to see if they're following, and spots a gathering of random civillians in the plaza not far away, who are similarly panicking... tosses another bomb up and attempts to lead the gate babies to delicious hosts::

BIG BOLD LETTERS: HAVE FUN WITH THAT.

C!Envy: Well I was bored a few days ago, so I found this big guy on a horse. Eventually I got tired of following him and I blew him up with a grenade. *shrugs* Want to see something fantastic?

IC!Envy: .....Sure. *a little sullen but definitely not stark raving any more; doesn't seem to care the others are escaping*

Gatebaby!Car: *OM NOM NOM PEDESTRIANS*

OOC!Psiren: *grabs for Mal's hand and starts GETTING THE FUCK AWAY FROM THIS MADNESS*

OOC!Scar: *grabs Clara's hand and Sheska's, running as well*

IC!Ran Fan: *rises from the dead, twists neck back into normal position, cold and dead looking. wanders around stabbing people*

IC!Alfons: ::is in the path of Clara and Mal's flight, and stands shakily as he sees them approaching, not liking the looks of this one bit::

C!Envy: *holds out a hand in an awe-inspiring, commanding way and smiles blandly; a grenade appears in his palm*

OOC!Roy: *runs after them, because there is no way he's being left on his own right now*

IC!Envy: *raises his eyebrows* What, that's it?

OOC!Scar: *looking over his shoulder, had just been worrying about Roy* Roy, come on!

C!Envy: I figured out I could do that yesterday. Endless entertainment, let me tell you. *blank stare at his double* ...It's a grenade.

OOC!Psiren: *almost runs into Alfons* .........!

IC!Envy: I know it's a fucking grenade I'm not blind. *snippy*

IC!Alfons: Clara? What is going on...? ::terrified wut::

IC!Gluttony: *keeeeeeeeeeeening, ignoring the world*

Darren: *finally done with his dry heaves, leaning heavily against the tree while people run around him in general chaos*

C!Envy: You asked. *rolls his eyes* I thought you of all people might appreciate it.

OOC!Psiren: ...It's the Apocalypse! *grabs for his hand too*

OOC!Roy: *catches up with them* Do - do we actually know wh-where we're going?

Darren: *recognizes a voice in the screaming mayhem* ...CLARA!

IC!Envy: Well I guess I'm a little harder to impress than that. *feeling a bit ill after those crystals Wrath used on him, and the way Gluttony turned on him*

OOC!Scar: No fuckin' clue.

IC!Alfons: ::takes hand and runs along:: What? But- ::looking around and yeah, looks apocalyptic to him:: Gott im Himmel...

OOC!Psiren: *jumps about a mile, looking around* My God DARREN!

IC!Sheska: Some place with no people, or animate objects?

C!Envy: *the nerve* Disappointing. *looks at the grenade in his palm a second, considering*

Darren: ...Hi. *smiles grimly, trying not to hack bile onto her shoes*

IC!Envy: Yeah that's just what I was thinking. *brushing the hair from his face cattily*

OOC!Scar: Wait, in here. *points to a shop on the side of the street, fishing in his pocket for the key*

C!Envy: ...*makes a disgusted noise and chucks the grenade, pulling the pin as it leaves his hand*

IC!Gluttony: *oblivious to the world until Gate Baby starts trying to crawl on him* DDDDDD8

OOC!Psiren: *drops Mal and Alfons' hands, going over to him* Dear God are you alright?!

OOC!Scar: *continues unlocking the old record store, holding the door open* Get inside, quick, everyone.

OOC!Roy: *goes into the shop, looking around for any potential danger and thankful to find none ... yet, anyway*

IC!Sheska: *going the hell in*

IC!Alfons: ::hurries on in, omg::

IC!Envy: *catches it by reflex and EXPLODES*

Darren: Aside from being recently informed that I'm about to die? I've been better, but yeah. I think it looks worse than it is. How're you? *somehow still trying to be as debonair as possible in her presence*

IC!Gluttony: *tearing at Gate Baby, trying to get it off, DOES NOT WANT*

Evil!Al: ::meanwhile, is running from a horde of gate baby parasited people, snickering with glee at what he's done::

C!Envy: ............................*suddenly covered in gooey chunks of Double*

IC!Ran Fan: *lurching up to the alley of Ren and pieces of Envy, recognizes Ren as the one who kill her, starts towards him*

OOC!Psiren: *stare* ...I'm covered in blood. Let's get inside, shall we? *offers him a shoulder, since he looks like he might fall over*

BIG BOLD LETTERS: EARTHQUAKE. TINY BIT STRONGER, TINY BIT LONGER.

Darren: *stoically refuses the shoulder, grimacing but otherwise steady* None of that blood's yours, then? *lets her lead*

IC!Gluttony: *throws Baby at lamp post, Baby squeals at impact*

OOC!Scar: *pushes Sheska out of the way as an overhead light comes crashing down, but gets hit in the elbow and swears loudly*

IC!Sheska: *jumps under a table, records spilling around her like a rain of vinyl*

Darren: *falls into Clara at the sudden earthquake, swearing* Ah-- Sorry!

OOC!Roy: *staggers, knocking a load of records to the floor; tries to avoid falling debris*

OOC!Scar: *staggers back onto balance and to the door, closing it and locking it firmly behind him, sighing shakily and clutching his elbow*

IC!Alfons: ::holds on to shop counter for duration of earthquake, then sighs heavily and sinks down onto the floor, leaning his back against the counteOOC!Roy:: This is... ::risks a glance outside, at the freakish sky, at the gate babies...::

IC!Ran Fan: *jumping at Ren, trying to shank him from behind*

OOC!Psiren: *falls into Darren, clings until tremor is over* ...MAL, DO YOU THINK IT'S SAFE TO BE INSIDE?

OOC!Scar: Better than being outside. Did you see those things? *hands shaking, goes to the window* Is there any way to keep them out?

C!Envy: *sits steady on his horse, watching everyone imperiously and enjoying it greatly; unaffected by the earthquake and only turning around when something seems to be disturbing his horse* ...Hello. *glares at RanFan!zombie*

IC!Gluttony: *Gate Baby not affected by hitting a lamp post, crawls towards Gluttony again*

OOC!Roy: ... I have no idea. Are you OK?

OOC!Scar: .........No. *covers his eyes with his hand, grimacing and trying not to cry*

Darren: *knows he shouldn't feel awesome about Clara clinging when the effing world is coming down, but hey; small victories* Come on, we need to get somewhere things won't fall on us if that happens again!

IC!Ran Fan: *influenced both by mindless killing Gate baby and by revenge* ----will kill--- revenge--- *stab stab*

C!Envy: ...Um. You realize we've never met, right?

OOC!Roy: *hurries over and places an arm around Mal's shoulders*

War's Horse: *sidesteps icky zombie and hopes it's rider doesn't try and get it to trample the thing*

IC!Sheska: *carefully looking out from her hiding place* I read a zombie survival book. We need to barricade the door and windows and get shotguns.

OOC!Psiren: *torn... earthquake... but Babies... waffling outside the door and still clinging* Roy? Alfons? Any chance you can make the building earthquake-proof with alchemy?

OOC!Scar: *nods, hiding behind his hand* Yeah, OK. We c-can d-do that.

IC!Ran Fan: ----remember your----face *jumping onto the horse with ninja zombie agility and trying despirately to stab Ren*

OOC!Psiren: *where's Ed when you need him?*

IC!Alfons: ::considers this:: Maybe? It's been a while...

OOC!Roy: ... We could ... try?

Darren: *glancing around at the growing crowd, dimly aware of being glad that Clara's clinging so he doesn't have to*

OOC!Scar: *shakes Roy off, sniffing loudly and going over to a low metal shelf, scooting it towards the door*

IC!Sheska: *pulls out a piece of paper and pen, starts scrawling alchemy circles then offers them up* Would any of these help?

C!Envy: Oh, you probably mean my double. I just blew him up, actually. Hey- *does not appreciate the stabbing! grabs at her trying to tear her in half*

OOC!Psiren: *looks at Gate Baby zombies coming up the street* Darren... I think I'd rather risk the earthquakes....

OOC!Roy: *lets Mal get on with barricading the door* Thanks, Sheska* takes the piece of paper and takes a look, before offering it to Alfons* What do you think?

IC!Gluttony: *looks at Gate Baby*

Darren: *follows where she's looking* ...Agreed. And I vote finding weapons.

IC!Alfons: Ja, maybe... ::takes a look, not totally sure he wants to try arrayless alchemy after so long:: It should help, danke.

Darren: Big, sharp ones.

OOC!Scar: *pulling closed the metal shutter on the window and locking them with the key, glad the owner had always been so damn paranoid about theft*

IC!Ran Fan: *is torn in half but, hey, doesn't bother her that much, going for his face* -----killllll.

IC!Sheska: *is helpful?, smile*

C!Envy: Oh my- ENOUGH OF THAT, YOU! *makes to grab her by an arm, doing a shot-put throw with her upper half*

OOC!Psiren: *goes inside finally... does not let go of Darren* ...Maybe Roy and Alfons could help with that, too? After we've made sure the roof won't fall in....

Evil!Al: ::leads gatebaby!people to more people, and takes off as they have fun slaughering and parasiting each other, woo; heads back toward where the others were last, but then hangs back at the sight of Ren and zombie!Ran Fan::

IC!Gluttony: *looks at Gate Baby army*

Darren: Clara, seriously. Weapons.

IC!Ran Fan: *is flung a ways, starts crawling towards him* ---revenge-----

OOC!Scar: *finishes with the window and tosses the key hopelessly onto the floor covered in strewn records*

IC!Alfons: ::has pen in pocket, lulz, and copies the array onto his palm for ease of use, then starts finding bits of metal and plastic and whatnot to stabilize the walls and roof with::

OOC!Psiren: ...What are you telling me for? I don't have any!

C!Envy: *digs his heels in and chirrups to the horse, trotting off in the opposite direction of the nasty dead thing*

Darren: Yeah, that's kind of the point! We need to find some!

OOC!Scar: They can. Make some. Alchemy. *choking out the words*

Darren: *notices Mal for the first time* Hunh?

IC!Sheska: *thinks for a moment, starts scribbling some more diagrams* I think those alchemy books I read were actually useful!

OOC!Roy: Uh. *pulls his gloves out of his pocket* Um, I might be able to slow them down ... *pulls the gloves on and peers through the door before snapping his fingers and sending a couple of explosions out into the street*

OOC!Psiren: *lets go of Darren and goes to Mal, worried* Mal, are you okay?

IC!Alfons: ::manages a smile at Sheska's words but can't talk and transmute at the same time - is worried enough that he'll screw it up without the talking part::

OOC!Scar: *thinks he's done pretty much all he can and so sinks to the ground, pressing his forehead to his knees*

OOC!Psiren: *puts her arms around him?*

OOC!Scar: Not really, no.

Darren: *finds himself suddenly standing on his own and has about ten seconds of confusion before his knees buckle and he decides leaning nonchalantly against the nearest wall is a good plan*

OOC!Scar: *sniffs loudly, looking the other way and wiping his eyes, embarassed* Shit. Ed- shit.

OOC!Roy: *explodes some more of the street, for good measure, then takes his gloves off and starts collecting stuff they can transmute into weaponry*

OOC!Psiren: *rubbing his back* What about Ed? ...Where is he? *oh shit did we leave him out there?!*

IC!Sheska: *looking at Mal, the tears returning to her* I wished so hard this day wouldn't come. I can't belive that they all...
IC!Sheska:*swallows* Um, Ed is... *can't manage to finish*

IC!Gluttony: *runs the fuck away from the Gate Babies, because he DOES NOT LIKE THEM*

OOC!Scar: *can't answer her, shaking his head and looking up to try to stop crying*
