Four years...

[s-sniffling]

Do you really think so?
slayerofgiants: (Sad)

[personal profile] slayerofgiants 2012-04-28 02:32 am (UTC)(link)
I cannot do much to make up for it from here...
nometal_alchemist: Old Ed smiling softly (It's not okay but we're all right)

I will never be convinced that we're trapped here eternally. You'll have your chance.

[he keeps holding on to that hope but sometimes...]

[cling more]

I hope so. I hate to think...the effect my actions are having at this moment.

*awww... gives your head a grandfatherly pat :<*

I'll do whatever I can to help you put things right. All right?

[that is very comforting. '-']

T-thank you. I just...I really want to make things right. But...I do not regret what I did. [which kind of makes him feel like crap.]

I know that's terrible, but. I wanted to bring her back.

Mono? She was...everything to me.

[he's getting used to talking about her without bawling like a baby. there is more fondness in his words now.]

She was all I had left.
nometal_alchemist: Old Ed smiling softly (Somehow I just know)

[personal profile] nometal_alchemist 2012-04-28 04:22 am (UTC)(link)
You loved her.

Can you tell me about her?
slayerofgiants: (Looking away)

[personal profile] slayerofgiants 2012-04-28 05:01 am (UTC)(link)
Very much.

[there's a pause]

Mono was -- is perfect. I think you would have liked her. She carries herself so gracefully. Like a princess. She is the kindest, most caring person I have ever known.

[s-smiling slightly]

She liked to sew. She made my poncho, even. She knew I wanted to become an apprentice at the local temple -- to make up for my...to, prove to the gods I was not an ill omen. She told me if I wore their uniform, they would see my dedication. So she made it for me, and she was right. They gave me a chance because of her.

She was supportive that way. I would not be anything without her.

She sounds like a wonderful person. And I'm glad you have something she made for you, to keep you connected to her. I'm sure you'll see each other again.

I have to! Being without her is like having a piece of myself missing. I can never be whole without her.

[just...his very dramatic way of saying he misses her.]
nometal_alchemist: Old Ed looking thoughtfully sad (The distance needed to reach you)

*gosh does he know how that feels ;;*

I know.

[personal profile] slayerofgiants 2012-04-29 09:29 pm (UTC)(link)
How do you deal with it, Edward? How?
nometal_alchemist: Old Ed looking thoughtfully sad (The distance needed to reach you)

[personal profile] nometal_alchemist 2012-04-30 03:43 am (UTC)(link)
It's not easy... it's painful, and difficult, but I know that if I just give up and stop moving, and let grief overwhelm me, then I really won't ever see him again, and that idea is so much worse than what I feel right now, without him here at my side, that I have to keep moving on. To take care of the people who are here, and to keep working toward being able to see him again someday.

[just going to hug tighter at his words]

I can try then.

* ;; hugging back*

As much as I can, I'll be here to support you.

It's what family does, right?
slayerofgiants: (Looking away)

[personal profile] slayerofgiants 2012-05-08 12:44 am (UTC)(link)
[f-family. '-'

OKAY I'M JUST GONNA' HUG YOU FOR A WHILE, THAT COOL?]
