As deftly as it was drawn the dagger is sheathed. The girls looks between Hawkeye and Al, saything nothing in responce to the repremind but her eyes dart to the shard in Miller's hands.

 

[stonegod]

Private Bradley... Hawkeye doesn't move her hand, "Step away from the homunculus."

The other woman narrows her eyes a bit at the statement, watching the Hawkeye closely. As she continues with her accusations against Miller, her eyes become less suspicious, but only slightly.

Al glances again at the robed woman, even though he does not remember ever meeting someone like her. Perhaps it is merely the fact that she has not said a word since entering but he finds her presence vaguely unsettling.

Al's gaze is briefly returned, but then she turns her eyes away. Not quickly, not dismissive, but ... something.

Fool Elric brothers. I will have to be careful.

At the awkward pause in the conversation, the woman finally speaks. "She is not a homunculi---not as far as my... understanding... goes. But, she is something. Best ask her maker, of what is left of him." She looks pointedly at shard in Miller's hand.

OOC: Knew it was here, but a bit busy of late.

"But that's just a scrap of metal. Private Bradley, you reported that her maker is deceased, yes?"

 

[unleashed]

*Rose glances briefly at the dark-haired woman when she looks at Al, a hint of a smile playing across her lips.*

“Well, Al’s soul was attached to a suit of armour once, as I’m sure you know general. Perhaps that is what she means...”

 

[Rystil Arden]

"Is it alive, then? It's just a tiny piece of metal. Can you speak?" she seems to address the shard of metal in Miller's hands, though the shard makes no sign of being anything more than an ordinary piece of metal.

 

[Dire Lemming]

"Of course, a soul binding!" Al steps forward towards Miller "Can I take a look at that?" he asks, pointing to the shard.

 

[Rystil Arden]

*Miller nods slightly and hands the shard to Al.*

 

[Dire Lemming]

Al examines the shard for a blood seal.

[sblock=OOC]I don't suppose anyone bothered to check whether or not Miller had a bellybutton when she was naked. Oh that's right, anime characters always have bellybuttons unless they forget to draw them. [/sblock]

 

[Rystil Arden]

(OOC: When you're sculpting a body out of flesh using precise alchemy, if you want a bellybutton, you get a bellybutton )

*The shard not only has a blood seal, it basically only is the blood seal on a scrap of metal, nothing more.*
