Lieutenant. Welcome back.

What have Elric and Mustang told you?

voice

[strictdiscipline]

They've given me a basic rundown of the situation here, as well as a brief explanation of the events that occurred during the Promised Day.

[ But. ]

Welcome 'back'?

voice

[darwinatrix]

Yes. You've been here before.

Most people don't remember their time spent here before, so I'm not surprised you don't, either.

voice

[strictdiscipline]

[ Well. That answers that. ]

Are there any assignments I should be picking back up then?

voice

[darwinatrix]

Depends. You were a member of RISE, beforehand. I'd imagine you're still loyal to Mustang before all else, aren't you?

[ If she were the type to laugh she would right now, because of all questions, that's the one whose answer never changes. As it is, her answer's simple, succinct. ]

Of course.

voice

[darwinatrix]

[A sigh.] You're wasted on him.

If he'll release you to RISE, your aid wouldn't go amiss.

voice

[strictdiscipline]

I'll take that as a compliment, Major General.

[ With that said: ]

You're welcome to negotiate with him on the terms and conditions, but I suspect the answer will be the same.

[ If only because she's quite content where she is. ]

voice

[darwinatrix]

No, I suppose it wouldn't either. Shame, really. Last time both of you were on board.

voice

[strictdiscipline]

[ 'Both' of them? ]

What changed?

voice

[darwinatrix]

Both of you, apparently. RISE is the same as it was when you left.
