Still a lot I don't know about myself or my home, but at least I know it'll come back.

Mm... and whenever I get the right memories, I should get my alchemy back too. Yesterday, when I was talking to him, Claude said he'd seen me use it, so it'll work here for sure.

That's right...I forgot he knew you before.

*nods*

There's a few people around who did. I... haven't really gotten to talk much to most of them. It's probably hard for them, when they remember me but I'm starting over and don't remember them.

*nods, and leans companionably against your shoulder*

It has to be hard...the way some people remember each other before others do.

*leans back a little*

Mm... At least with them, they'll remember each other eventually. I don't think memories of this place are something the Judges will be giving back.

...Well. You know what I mean.

*smiles over at you*

I guess we'll all just have to make new ones, right? I think talking to them has to help a little; if you were friends before, you can be friends again.

I hope so. I'd like to be, if it's not too hard on them.

I don't know all of them, but someone like Claude...I think he wouldn't mind.

I've gotten to talk to him a bit more than some of the others... I would like to get to know him again. I can kind of see why I must've considered him a friend the first time.

He's been a good friend to me, as long as I've been here.

Yeah? That's a good vote of confidence in him, then. Guess I'll see how it goes getting to know him all over again.

He got here before you? Or about the same time?

A long time before. I think he and Red were some of the first to wake up.

Mm... guess winning isn't based on the amount of time you're here, then.

*leans back a little, arms still on his knees, looking up to the top of the cavern*

Much as I'd like to get to know him better, I hope he gets to go home too.

*nods, matching your posture*

He deserves it if anyone does.

Hope it's not too much longer for him. Even if he does have a lot to share with people here, I'm sure there's people in his home that will miss him.

And with all the people with different kinds of knowledge here...I'm sure we could find a way to keep in touch, somehow. Other than mine, I mean; it only really works for me.

*nods*

And it's not especially fair to you to ask you to carry messages between people. Besides, I'd rather have you come to my world because you wanted to, not because someone asked you to bring a message.

*grins and bumps your shoulder with his*

No fear of that.

*grinning back*

Awesome. Just hope with all the places you've seen, it's interesting enough.

Oh, I think there'll be enough to interest me there.

*laughs*

Good!

...Elric. S'my last name. I'm also called Fullmetal there. It'll make it easier for you to find me when you get to my plane.

*nods*

I'll remember. My last name's Beleren, though it's not like I'm using it much.

Not much use for them around here... there's just not enough of us for it to matter. When it comes to a whole world, it'll make a difference.

The more I remember, the more I'll be able to tell you about who's safe to ask, or where to go. Hopefully I can tell you enough that the only hard part will be finding my plane in the first place.

Hopefully. But even then, I'm pretty sure I'll find you eventually.

*leaning back a bit*

I'm sure you would. But I'd be looking forward to seeing you again. It's a little selfish, I think.
