Report 001 [Voice]

(PCD is not turned on yet)

Oh, I hope this works.

(PCD turns on with the sounds of someone clearing their throat, a bit of background static)

Colonel? This is Elizabeth. The store's been...something happened to it. I can't see any customers around, but it doesn't seem like there was a fight. It's just different and empty. All of my coworkers are missing, too.

I'm worried about the package we received yesterday. You know, the pet that started being mean and we had to put down. I can't find it at all. I hope nothing bad comes of this.

Colonel, please get back to me. I'm kind of worried.

(PCD clicks off)

((OOC: I hope Riza's code talk isn't too confusing.))

Lieutenant Colonel? I got demoted two ranks in five minutes? How did that happen?

[Maes' shoulders slump in an exaggerated motion. He fumbles with something out of sight of the PCD, and then holds up a small album, the smile returning to his face.]

Of course I would! You know me too well. Now... would you like to see the pictures of our pie-making, or of the party I threw when she showed up so that everyone could meet her?

Proper procedure. I originally thought you were from my current present, which would then be your future, but as it turns out you're really from my past, or your present. Therefore, you're still a lieutenant colonel at this time.

Sorry to disappoint you, Sir.

(Sighs, but with a small smile on her face.)

I suppose we can start from the beginning, Hughes. Pies it is!

But at the point you're from, I'm a Brigadier General. You should continue to address me with that rank, since it's what you know to be fact. Besides, how often do I get to gloat at Roy? Aside from every time I talk about my wife and daughter!

[Maes grins in triumph and opens up the album. He begins displaying pictures.]

Hooray for pie! These are from when we made apple pie! She's so adorable with just a bit of flour on her ear!

((ooc: Yes, I'm kind of backtracking, but it's picture time! Can't pass that up!))

Since I serve Colonel Mustang, it is my best interest to keep him safe. This includes his ego. Unfortunately, this means you will be demoted...at least in word.

Of course, I will not stop you from gloating. I don't think I can stop you.

(Looks at the pictures with a smile.)

It looks like you had a good time. And apple pie? Did Gracia give you the recipe?

[[ooc: Who doesn't want picture time with Maes? Besides Roy.]]

I think his ego can suffer a few blows every now and then! It will help him! Besides, you've given him a blow or two. I seem to remember a comment about him being useless in the rain!

[Maes nods, turning to more pictures.]

She taught me all I know about making deserts!

((ooc: That's because Roy doesn't know how to have fun. :p))

Hm, I suppose you have a point, Hughes. The non-alchemy freaks have to stick together, right?

(She smiles and looks at the other pictures.)

Gracia always did make lovely pies to bring into the office.

[[ooc: Exactly! Poor stuffy Roy. He needs people to help him!]]

Agreed! And she did. Maybe she'll show up here one of these days!

((ooc: I'd say Riza tries to help, but...then Riza doesn't seem to get out that much, either.))

I'm sure that would make you very happy.

It would.

But all things considered... I'm very happy here.
