Rebound
Who: Greed (and sorta Alphonse)
Broadcast: Yes
Action: A park on the Starlight
When: February 28th, after this post
[The transmission starts abruptly with a flash of red light. When the image clears, there's a few blades of grass in the way and a grotesque image of a man's back, only it's embedded with pieces of metal armor as well as what looks like an armored hand sticking out from the side. It's all the result of some hideous rebound. The man sways unbalanced and seemingly oblivious to the mess made upon his back. He stands there for a few seconds before stumbling forward and kneeling to something beyond the angle of the camera.]
Alphonse!? [There is the sound of banging on metal.] Alphonse! Dammit, answer me!
[There is nothing. No answer. Just silence.]
Say something you shitty brat! We were getting out of this shit hole together! Don't say you--
[And then, just like that, the feed cuts out without explanation.]

... no. Not as far as I can tell. There's still... something missing.

... I can redraft notes and the spells we used in Adstringendum, to escape from there. Combining alchemy and ritual work might prove to be more powerful than just your skills alone.
[ she straightens, though, to go ]
Alphonse will be back. If you need anything, I'm Rei. You can reach me on the network. I'm on the First Breath.
[action]
[As ever, his dismissive tone makes it clear he had little chance of doing that. Maybe later he might be curious at the notion of combining techniques for escape - but it wasn't what was at the front of his mind just yet.]

time to go figure out what in the actual hell happened to alphonse. ]
