Does anyone know how to make armor -- er, not like medieval armor, but if I laid out some schematics, could anyone make some? I could pay, obviously, but after the paintball game, I figured it might be a good idea to get my hands on something a little more helpful than the clothes on my back.
[ And his barrier, but... ]
If anyone can, or is interested, I'd appreciate the help.
[ He paused, then. Thinking. ] Anyway, I just wanted to ask about that. But, today's July first, too. We're not there, but...
This place isn't full of just Americans, I'm going to assume. When I come from, [ When, not where. ] it's more about heritage than national identity, but Canada Day's still big, at least to us. It's mostly an excuse to drink beer and eat a lot of unhealthy food -- and let off things that explode. [ A slight, wry twist of amusement is in his voice, a little laugh. ] There hasn't been much excuse for celebrating, and I'm sure there will be more happening on the fourth around here, but if anyone wants a beer... I'm pretty sure I'd be up for buying a round.

[Making basic ballistic armor would be next to effortless. But that would be setting the bar pretty low.]
Also, as far as nationality is concerned, its my experience that festivities are best when not exclusive. While you may not share a heritage you are welcome to celebrate it.
no subject
As for, ah, the festivities, it's not about being exclusive. It's more of a...reaching out, thing. Looking for other people who identify with the sentiment.

It's a bit like that when I'm from. Things are more about heritage than national identity. [It's nice to have someone else to say when I'm from with.] Since you offered to buy I might be up for a round.
video
But if you want a beer, all you have to do is say so. I'll never say no to a round -- or two.

[... Yeah, no, he really doesn't know. Kaidan might recognize the accent as generically American, and the man certainly looks the part, too.
Why he has no clue about the fourth of July? Well... That's something to be discovered, no?]
[video]
It's a national holiday for the Americans. It's their Independence Day, so they set off fireworks, eat food, and generally be about as, ah, "American" as they can be -- at least it always seemed that way. [ A pause. ] I never exactly spent much time in the area.

(I'm so sorry, I've been abysmal with tags this month. I'll be better now that my move is over)
It's all good! I hope your move went well!!!
(it did. It's been dragging on for a few months bc of paperwork and logistics, ugh)
(yiiiiiiiiiiikes that's the worst! I'm glad it's settling though! That's always nice to relax!)
(oh it so is, yes.)

I can build armor! I mean, it can't be nearly as difficult as making automail.

The lack of armor here is something that's been very strange about this world, especially in wartime. What's offered at the various places I've looked is ... less than sufficient, so I wish you luck.

So, he might as well ask:]
What is Canada Day celebrating?
[And there's a pause.]
And what kind of armor do you even need? Won't most of it weigh you down?
video.
[ A beat. ]
As for the armor, it's more for protection. I don't really need to move that fast across the battlefield. The guns generally move bullets faster than I can go.

[A pause and slight frown. Ed is more than a little confused with the rest but he thinks he sorts of gets the idea. Some sort of holiday thing from some other world, this 'America'.]
No idea about America or what happens on this Canada Day. A holiday, I take it? We didn't really have much of that sort of thing back home in Amestris.
video;
[ A pause, though, because who doesn't have national holidays? ]
Why don't you have holidays back home? I mean, is it just not something that happens? [ Check your holiday privilege, kaidan. ]
