Families are like fudge

Characters: Alphonse Elric (its_a_hobby), Edward Elric (steelmade) and Winry Rockbell (endthiscycle)
Location: Around the town
Rating: G?
Time: Aug 10 after BREW viewing.
Description: The Golden trio hangs out together, at long last. Who knows might go down with these three.

For so long, one of the things that had bothered Winry the most was the fact that everyone was assuming BREW actually existed. Up until now no one had ever even seen it, so the existence of this so called wish-granting machine had been one she always doubted.

Now that it was finally unveiled, she didn't know how to feel. At first she had been incredibly disappointed and unimpressed. It looked a little like a jigsaw puzzle. Then when Spirit proved its durability she got that usual tingle. That great and inexplicable desire to take it apart, find out how it ticks, learn about its ins and outs. Sadly that was not an option for her since it could not e removed from the room and with a despondant sigh she drew away from the machine.

She was going to head back to her room in the Casualty Communal when she spotted Edward and Alphonse, and instead hurried over to them.

"Hey guys," her eyes went back to where others were lining up to take a look at the machine, "so what do you guys think?"

"Maybe they'd be willing to let you take a look at it privately some other time," Al said. He didn't trust Shibusen, but he wasn't so stubborn as to refuse to admit they were making more of an effort to win the newcomers over. Al was simultaneously grateful and wary; it was still too soon to tell how all this would play out.

For now, though, he was glad for the opportunity to spend some time with Winry and his brother. Ed hadn't been in the city long enough for the three of them to have had the chance to do much more than catch up. "We don't have any plans that can't wait. Are you in any hurry to get back to the Communal?"

Ed wasn't in the least bit surprised that Winry wanted to 'look' at it. He wasn't really sure how well Shibusen would take to its weapon being taken to pieces. Not that Ed cared, of course - he'd be happy to see the damn thing broken, if it weren't for the fact that they were supposedly dependent on it to get back home. On the other hand, if there was anyone who could figure out how it worked, it was Winry.

He shook his head in tandem with Al's response. "You want to do something?"

Winry gave a thoughtful hum. She would see about that then, perhaps if she studied it under their supervision they would allow her to play around with it a bit. If BREWs code could be broken, perhaps that would be one way to get home. She knew it wasn't going to be easy, after all they were following different laws here, but it was definitely worth looking into.

"I had nothing in mind but when was the last time we were able to just spend some time together? I'm sure there's something in the city we could do!" For all its weirdness, Death City did have a couple things that seemed like they could be pretty fun.
