Started thinking about Claire's question, tonight.

I was going to answer it, but- there seems to be a lot going on over there, that I'd.. rather stay away from.

Of course my immediate response was 'robot' because- well... automail.
but, apparently it's a personality-type question so-

I don't know. I guess alien, then. Sort of a ridiculous thing to even bother thinking about, really... Seems more pleasant than other questions though, and that's always a plus - I'm not complaining either way, they're always something interesting to think about.


Sometimes, they're more helpful than they seem - the questions. Having something random to think about helps get me back on track, towards the end of the night.

If alchemy only works sometimes... or only certain alchemy works- maybe we're doing something wrong.

It's so nice that Claire's questions provide such help to the common public.


And what, exactly, did you feel that you needed to stay away from?

[alchemyxfreak]

All of the people talking about killing you, I'm pretty sure.

I only read half of what was going on, though. Since, really, it's none of my business.

[regenerable.livejournal.com]

Yeah. It's best to not read any of that. I.. um... yeah.

I'm glad you thought about my question though, Ed.

Is alchemy your ability?

[alchemyxfreak]

I guess you could say that - it's a skill, really. A lot of people refer to their 'powers' being taken away... Alchemy's a science, it's not some magic trick or really even an ability. Any decent scientist can do a little bit of it, where I'm from.

I don't know why the 'Gods' of this place would take it away, but.. I'm still working on what does and doesn't work here.

If you think about it, we're aliens when viewed by another, but that's just me I guess...

I rather stay away from robot; they can be monsters.

[alchemyxfreak]

You're right. Everyone that's here comes from another world, or- something. So... In a sense, we're all aliens to somebody.

I don't... really have much experience with robots, actually.

I'm relieved in knowing, that I'm not the only person who finds themselves aimlessly wandering within the depths of the mind.

It's why I decided that, I was going to aid others aside from causing initial pain.

[alchemyxfreak]

It's good to be thoughtful...

Though, I've often been told not as good to get lost in whatever thoughts you have.

True,

Although it is seen as healthy to reflect on the past - just not over indulging - I suppose.
