| | Well, Colonel Jackass gave me some time off for Christmas. He told me,
"You've been working fairly hard, with little to no results. Even so, I
think you should take a break - go home to Risenbool for a while."
Heh, who would've thought that the Morally-Bankrupt Colonel had a heart after all?
So, Al an I hopped a train to Risenbool. To be honest, I was a little
scared when Winry saw us. I couldn't tell if she wanted to kiss me or
kill me! We sat down in the Rockbell kitchen and talked, Al and I
telling Winry and old lady Pinako what we've been doing. Winry did some
tune-ups on my automail, and Pinako made us dinner. Man, did it feel
good to be home. I missed Pinako's home-cooked meals, but I probably
could have done without Winry's constant nagging. "Oh, you know you
like it," Says Al. Feh, whatever.
I got kind of bored after our first day home. I guess I've really
started to get used to the city life. Al was happy, though, so I
couldn't have asked for more. Anyway, once Christmas rolled around,
Pinako made a huge dinner - ham, potatos, yams, stuffing, gravy - you
name it, and it was there. I stuffed myself like a turkey it was so
good! Gah, even thinking about it now is making my mouth water.
Then we all opened presents - I got Winry some automail tools from Rush
Valley from the last time we were there, Winry got Al a stuffed cat
plush-thing (hopefully it'll keep him away from the REAL fleabags for a
while), and she got me some travel-sized tools for quick-fixes on my
automail. Pinako got Winry a new computer chair for Christmas, because
apparently she was getting tired of using the kitchen chairs. It was
really hilarious watching her try to put it together, though. "Goddamn
it! What? I can put together automail, but I can't figure out how to
put this damned thing together?! *hits it with a wrench*" ...Yeah. Al
gave her the advice of "Read the instructions!" But then again, this IS
Winry we're talking about. The rest of the day we just spent having
some good, old-time
fun.
Now it's late - or, well...I guess you could say it's early. Winry's
probably going to shoot me if she finds me up this late (and on her computer...<_< >_>), so I guess
I'll go.
Merry Christmas, everyone!
