001. [Video/Action for New Bark Town]

[Hello hello! This morning is looking to be a chilly one, if the view of New Bark Town over this particular feed is any indication; the ground is covered in a crisp blanket of white, the scenery is undisturbed, and the...uh, well, the feed is suddenly winging upward to shoot you a lovely and vaguely motion-sickness-inducing view of the sky. There's a soft, childish noise of fascination with it before the view shifts again - when it finally focuses on something that isn't the trees or the passing clouds, its camera appears to have settled on a young boy. He looks to be around the age of ten, with messy black hair and dark eyes that seem to be glittering with a violet tint to them.

...he also looks like he's freezing, because what on earth is being dressed properly for this weather. Seems he didn't get the memo that hey, it's cold outside, a coat is probably a good idea.

However! He's smiling despite the cold, offering the brightest 8D expression that a young boy can give through that much shivering.]


Ah, so is this how this works? Um...hello! My name is Selim Bradley, and it seems that I'm...well, a bit lost...

[His gaze shifts a bit, suddenly downcast, and he frowns, thinking.]

I woke up in a strange house, you see, with a woman claiming to be my mother - but I'd never seen her before in my life! My real mother is probably worried sick; she and Father warned me that this might happen one day. My father is a very important person; there was always the fear that I would be kidnapped in the night. So it's really urgent that I get back to them right away!

I'm sure my father would be willing to offer you some sort of reward for helping sort this out - if anyone can tell me how to get in contact with Fuhrer King Bradley, I need to know right away.

Tha-

[He jumps suddenly and stops short, having been interrupted by a godawful screech from somewhere behind him; a Misdreavus is visible behind him when he turns his body to look at it. When he returns to the device, his expression is...more than a little sheepish.]

Thank you for listening, and if anyone knows where I can, um, return this pet that was given to me - wait, is that rude? Because I don't mean to be rude! I just...don't...really want it, and that strange man in town refuses to take it back, he just welcomes me to the world of, um, po-kay-mons again.

...yes, I think that's all. Thanks again!

[ ..... He's never spoken to you before, but he does know who you are. Everyone knows who you are...

He's fairly sure you don't know who he is, because, why would you? But the uniform he has on might help you at least know that he's a familiar face. ]


Er... I don't believe you were kidnapped, but... it's kind of a long story!

[Well, Envy certainly didn't expect to see this face showing up from home. He recognizes Selim, of course he does, how could he not recognize Pride's adopted brat? He's even seen the kid in person a few times, in disguise of course. And hell if that bright eyed, parent-loving attitude didn't just grate on his nerves. So he's feeling a little bit of spiteful glee that Selim is wandering around New Bark in the snow, no lie.]

So sorry, kid, but your parents aren't around. You're not even in Amestris anymore.

[He doesn't sound particularly sorry.]

[Archer doesn't reply to the video right away. He's more overwhelmed with the surprise that the Fuhrer's son is here. Oh, and the fact that if he helps the Fuhrer's son while he's here, he might very well earn another promotion. Brigadier General Archer has a nice ring to it.]

[After another moment of ensuring he looks his best (it's the Fuhrer's son, of course appearance matters! He wouldn't want to be forgettable, now would he?), Archer finally turns on the 'Gear.]


I suppose you could say you were kidnapped; but this is hardly the sort of situation that you're describing.

[While Archer doesn't sound like he's talking down to Selim, he certainly does sound more pleasant than he normally does! This is his "I'm totally sane, right guys?" tone here, so just roll with it.]

It's difficult to explain, but this seems to be a different world entirely, separate from Amestris. Several of us have been brought here as well.

[ Have the equally MOST CHEERFUL of replies, Selim.

She's not interested in any rewards, she just looks concerned. You look too young to be stuck here alone and she's not sure if telling you your parents won't be worried is a good thing in this case because what child wants to hear that they won't be missed and alkfasd this is sort of terrible but D: WHAT DO I DO?! ]


Hello Selim-san! I'm Tohru Honda, I'd be happy to answer any questions for you if you'd like. [ Starting with the Pokemon, because lawl she had that same reaction when she first showed up. ]

[Gorthan tends to not think much of posts from cute kids, because cute kids are yet another one of those many things about Earth and its civilization that he's still not sure whether he should consider repulsive or absolutely adorable, slightly leaning towards the latter most of the time. But. He has clear memories of something that Kimblee said once.]

Fuhrer King Bradley. The name isn't new.

she certainly wasn't expecting her boss to show up.

Does this mean she gets paid at least? ]
