Report 060 - [Video]
[Riza turns on her PCD to make an announcement...
...only to be interrupted right away by three dogs all vying for her attention. At the same time. Black Hayate and Dakota manage to get on either side of her on the couch while Sirius (in dog form) pants happily in front of her. This would be okay if they were sitting still, but as luck would have it, they weren't. Soon enough they're trying to walk all over her and howling in happiness, though Riza really looks anything but happy, so what is causing this behavior?]
Boys, down.
[No response.]
Boys, down! Now!
[She snaps her fingers and points forcefully off-screen. Slowly, Hayate and Dakota follow her orders, but Sirius, while intimidated, only lays down in front of her. And cooperates.]
...Don't even think of giving me a face. I'm still mad at you.
[Riza finally has a moment to breathe.]
Oh my God...
[Private//Unhackable to Alphonse]
Right, as I was trying to say. I hate to be a bother right now and if I ask too much of you, then don't worry about declining. As you can see I'm a little overwhelmed and the cat is really not happy with all this excitement. If you could take him off of my hands for a while, I would really appreciate it. Again, don't feel bad if you can't, I just know I can trust you to take care of him. Thank you.

It doesn't matter. It's over now. I'm fine.

Where was I when this happened?

By my side.
[She doesn't know exactly when the Animus took her finger, but if she knows Roy at all, she knows he didn't leave her bedside while she was dead. Always waiting, always watching.]
It wasn't your fault.

How did it happen?

She has to be careful with him.]
...The natural order of things doesn't always apply here. You have to know that. We don't age here and...
[She swallows thickly, knowing her next words just won't go over well, no matter how she says them.]
...When we die, we don't stay dead.

He remembers her lying in the cavern, blood pouring from her slit throat. He remembers destroying the tattoo on her back, the sickly smell of burnt flesh.
He squeezes her hand tightly.]
Just don't do it again.

And that was how you lost your finger?

Strange, what they think has equal value. Your life is worth much more than a finger.

You've done a remarkable job of avoiding my question.

I was trying to save a friend, but I was too late. I couldn't stop his killer, either. I'm just a human, after all.
