Loose Screws 12 [Video] (Forward Dated to 11/26)

[hands4healing]

[Good morning, everyone! Have a Winry with a bandanna wrapped around her head, standing in the kitchen. There's a soft 'chuff, chuff' sound coming from out of the view. Winry smiles off-screen then turns to the camera.]

Hi! I know this is short notice but I thought, since this is a big day in this world, I'd do something for it.

[She picks up the comm and turns it toward the kitchen. There are loaves of bread rising, a huge pot with steam coming out of it, and a lot of chopped up vegetables, as well as a few pie crusts, obviously ready to be filled.]

I'm making stew and bread and I'll have plenty for you if you want. If you want to come over, let me know and I'll send you the address!

[Another soft chuff off-screen, and the camera swings to show a pair of border collies, one black and white, one mottled merle.]

I do have a pair of dogs here but they're friendly if you have any pets you'd like to bring. So just give me a call and let me know!

[With that, she signs out.]

Guess I must be missin' something, but is it for some sort of holiday?

[He doesn't get it, but it's clear in his eyes that he's interested.]

And what's your dogs' name? I've always wanted one myself, but what with my roomate's pet lizard, ain't sure how that'd go down.

[A new face?]

Hi! This is some sort of celebration day in this world. I don't know much about it but a lot of food is involved?

[The camera swings back to the dogs.]

Zoey is the black and white dog and Boba is the motley. These two might try to eat a lizard!

[akito]

That looks good!

[hands4healing]

Hi Akito!

Do you want to come over and help me eat it?

[She points out of camera-range.]

You can bring Benji to meet Zoey and Boba.

[akito]

Okay! Can I bring some back with me for everyone else?

[tuxedo_magician]

I totally need to stop by. I inherited Ellery and I know he could do with a familiar face.

[hands4healing]

You're welcome to come by, Kaito! And bring Ellery, too!

[tuxedo_magician]

I will, thanks.

[Needless to say, with all the people that have come and gone in this place, Winry is probably his closest friend at the moment. And really, one of the only ones he has left.]

Did you want me to bring anything?

[It's her second favorite mechanic. She had been kind of worried about the girl but hadn't wanted to push.]

I'd love to come over and eat some with you.

[hands4healing]

Jo! I'd be happy to have you over!

[If she knew Jo was worried about her, she'd be surprised.]

Do I need to bring anything? I can stop by a store. [Even though she's sure that would take forever on a special day like today.]

And where do I show up?

[gluestick]

That's real thoughtful of you. I might stop in for a bit, if you don't mind. It's been a while since I've gotten a chance to play with a dog.

[ He still needs to give her a proper thank you for the last time he was here. ]

[hands4healing]

I'd be happy to have you come over and play with the dogs! And so would they. I've been cooking so much, I haven't really had a chance to play with them this morning.

[gluestick]

Well now, can't have that. I'd feel real guilty leaving 'em hanging. How's thirty minutes sound?

[ Action? ]

[acclimatized]

Do you need any more vegetables? I've got loads and it seems a shame to just freeze them.

[hands4healing]

Oh, that would be wonderful! Are you sure you don't need them?

[acclimatized]

Great. And yeah, I'm very sure. They'd just go to waste if I tried to do anything with them.

[resipiscent]

[He's squinting. Riku is aware of Thanksgiving, but he neglected to really consider it as a thing he should do.]

... What do you even do for this thing?

[hands4healing]

[Funny squinched up face.]

As far as I can tell, eat and shop for things to give to other people?

[Light bulb effect.]

Oh, and watch either football or puppies!

[resipiscent]

Huh... So essentially it's an excuse to eat food.

Did you mean to make this public?

['Cause, like... there's generosity, and then there's inviting every imPort in the world to your house.]

[video]

[hands4healing]

...sure?

text;

[superposition]

So it's a blanket invitation to everyone?

[Riza really didn't think Roy would manage to keep her away for this long, but he somehow has managed to--and so she knows that Winry's been left on this (unfamiliar) holiday alone. Riza had just planned to call and check in, but this post made it a little bit easier.]

It looks like you've found a way to entertain yourself. I'm sorry I'm not back yet...I thought I'd have been home already, but I suppose one should expect odd holiday plans from the Colonel.

[hands4healing]

As long as you're having a good time!

[Have a big smile, Riza.]
