Voice

-ow it works? I can't really tell if it's on. Hey Roy, what do you think?

[There's some rustling, followed by a tapping sound as what seems to be a Cyndaquil tapping against the screen of the Pokegear.]

Cynda?

I think it's working. Alright! Now that we've got this Pokegear running we've got to record our lines now for the voicemail! It's got to be something really, really adorable so that everyone who calls us will be able to remember how cute you two boys are. Look I've already got a script-

Quil Cyndaquil!

Hmm? Aw, there's no need to be mad. I don't know why you get so riled up, you ARE a cute little fire-breathing porcupin-OWCH HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT!

[The Gear falls down from Hughes's hand and clutters onto the ground, landing on the "OFF" button and effectively ending that 'recording' session.]

[WELL THEN. There's a voice she thought she'd never hear again, so excuse Winry for a moment, while she thinks her heart might almost stop beating. Okay, girl, breathe. It's not the first time he's here, she's been here at the same time with him too - twice, kind of - but ... he's been gone for almost two years.

Hands still shaking, she decides to go with audio first. Hard swallow. Okay, she can do this. Somehow. Just one of the most amazing persons she's ever known there, alive and sounds like he doesn't remember being here before, but that's okay!!

Wait, you two boys? ... ...Does that mean he caught another pokemon by now, or does it mean that he's a rocket again? Well, only one way to find out.

Right. Need to think of something to say once she actually stops crying. Thanks for that, not like tears of joy are a bad thing but... Ummmm.]

It... actually connects you to a place called network or something, where everyone can hear what you say. There's a voicemail too though, but -- [Winry really doesn't know what to say here, so let's start with some technical basics.]

Your Cyndaquil sounds adorable... though it might take a little time for him to get used to being called adorable or cute.

W...Winry?

[Hughes immediately snatches the gear up from the ground and jams it to his ear. He probably shouldn't shout into the receiver like that, but he's really, really so happy to hear her voice.]

Winry! I didn't know you were here too. How are you? Are you doing OK? Where are you right now?

[usedwrench]

Hello!

[No it's okay to yell, Winry doesn't mind at all. She's just too happy to hear his voice.]

It's a long story, but I've been here for over two years... I'm good, thank you for asking and I hope you're doing OK too. Ed is here with me and we're in Pewter -- that's one of the cities in Kanto.

[notcominghome]

T-two years!?

[Two years is a very long time. Does she even know that he's dead yet? And what about Ed? So many questions! But priorities first!]

Both you and Ed...Are you two married yet?
