Equivalent Exchange: Episode 3--Crimson Eternal

[Dire Lemming]

Alphonse takes the letter and heads for the door "Yes, of course. Thanks, General Hawkeye, seeya later." Just before Al leaves he turns and asks "Oh, um, what about Lieutenant Miller? Where can we get her some clothes?"

 

[unleashed]

Rose sighs when Hawkeye mentions the library is off-limits, “I guess I’m not going to be much help with your research then, Al,” but follows him anyway.

 

[Raylis]

"Oh, um, what about Lieutenant Miller? Where can we get her some clothes?"

"I could take her shopping for some. She looks at Hawkeye, "It won't take long and if I can't go in the library then there's no point of me going there with Al.

With a glance at the aformentioned boy, "Winry didn't come with you, did she?"

 

[Dire Lemming]

Al nods to Rose, and shakes his his at Elysia. Then a moment later he seems to realize something. "Oh! Uh, Elysia, this is Rose, um have you met before?"

 

[Raylis]

Elysia smiles at Rose "Nice to meet you, Rose."

 

[unleashed]

“Nice to meet you, Elysia,” Rose replies, smiling in return as she takes a good look at her. “Well, you’ve grown into a beautiful young woman, not that we’ve met before, but hearing about you from Winry makes me almost feel like we have. I’m sure she’ll be sorry she missed seeing you, but she didn’t have the time to join us on our journey.”

Turning her head towards Al, she says, “You know Al, I think I’ll go with Elysia while you’re at the library, at least that way I won’t just be sitting around.”

 

[Dire Lemming]

Alphonse nods, "Alright, then let's meet back at the hotel." Al glances at Miller, who hasn't said a word since her vague questions to Hawkeye. "Um, is that alright with you?"

 

[unleashed]

Watching Miller out of the corner of her eye, Rose says, “That sounds good, Al. Though we’ll come with you as far as the library, before we go find Kate some more appropriate clothes. That way Kate can bring us all up to speed on events... if she wouldn’t mind of course,” she adds, turning towards Miller and smiling.

"I am afraid that the Lieutenant Miller lookalike will not be shopping for clothes today. As I said before, I am taking her into military custody. If she actually is some kind of homunculus or something else and is just playing possum, it would be a reckless endangerment of the public to allow her the chance to escape and return to being at large," Hawkeye explains simply.

"I understand Riza. You're doing the right thing," Miller nods solemnly in agreement.

 

[unleashed]

“She’s still permitted to accompany us to the library though, right General?” Rose asks, looking from Miller to Hawkeye.
