... Mm. The same.

[Reaching out, tentatively, like he wants to hug you but isn't quite sure...]

What happened?
nometal_alchemist: Old Ed smiling gently (Thank you)

*he more or less has grandkids, he's cool with hugging. seeing your movement, but... you're Chrono. he'll take the initiative of hugging instead*

It is good to see you again. Especially if you had a long life before this.

I don't remember it.

[You don't have to say it like that!! ...But yes, fine, hugging. 8(]

Yeah... I'm sorry you had to end up in another one of these places.
nometal_alchemist: Old Ed looking sadly wistful (Lost loves)

[personal profile] nometal_alchemist 2012-02-02 05:46 am (UTC)(link)
*what? it's true. it's not like he doesn't know you.*

There might not be a way back, but maybe there's a way forward from here. A place where we can be with them all again after this last trial.

[Releasing a long breath]

That last trial is the problem. I don't know about you, but... I'm really tired.
nometal_alchemist: Old Ed looking thoughtful or slightly sad (Better left unsaid)

[personal profile] nometal_alchemist 2012-02-02 05:54 am (UTC)(link)
I would have been fine with more years of life, myself, but I had settled. It was time... Jace and I... we traveled one last time beforehand, because we were tired, too.

I didn't need something like this. Sounds like you didn't, either.

... Not at all. I was supposed to be catching up with someone. Now she's being kept waiting.
nometal_alchemist: Old Ed looking sadly wistful (Lost loves)

[personal profile] nometal_alchemist 2012-02-02 04:32 pm (UTC)(link)
I can't quite remember all the details, but I think we're both leaving someone waiting for us. We'll have to do our best to find the way forward so they don't have to wait too long.

[Sighing]

... I don't think there's a way out, Edward.
nometal_alchemist: Old Ed in profile, looking slightly sad (The roads we traveled)

[personal profile] nometal_alchemist 2012-02-03 01:06 am (UTC)(link)
Maybe there isn't... but it doesn't mean I'll stop looking for one. We deserve a chance to rest properly.

I suspect they'll let us go after we live out a natural lifespan here. But until then...
nometal_alchemist: Old Ed smiling or looking slightly perplexed (Just an old man)

[personal profile] nometal_alchemist 2012-02-03 02:23 am (UTC)(link)
Haah... For me, that might not be too long. For you... haven't you already reached that point?
overclocking: (truth-telling)

[personal profile] overclocking 2012-02-03 02:43 am (UTC)(link)
... Not quite, no. Demons live for centuries.

[Hence my INTENSE DISPLEASURE]
nometal_alchemist: Old Ed looking sadly wistful (Lost loves)

[personal profile] nometal_alchemist 2012-02-03 03:03 am (UTC)(link)
*sighs*

We'll just have to search for another way. It took a long time for the truth of Sabra to be revealed, this place might be the same way.

Haha...I don't know. I think I might be too tired to fight another war...
nometal_alchemist: Old Ed smiling or looking slightly perplexed (Just an old man)

[personal profile] nometal_alchemist 2012-02-04 01:10 am (UTC)(link)
*laughs softly, but without much humor*

Maybe we'll be lucky enough that there won't have to be another war.
