➤ 4th Transmutation [Sizefield!]


A. » ActionMayfield High School ☼ U.S. History

[So you know what sucks? Being short. Ok, no, not just short, but being an inch tall. That really sucks. Even worse? GETTING TOTED TO SCHOOL INSIDE A PURSE, THAT'S WHAT.

And of course it couldn't even be someone he remotely liked, oh no. It had to be Lust. There he was, trying to sneak out of that stupid house and then before he knew what was happening was shoved in some pocket next to a tube of red lipstick (that he totally transmuted, by the way. Nothing quite like going to fix your makeup and pulling out a tube of bright red crayon.) because she "had to keep him safe".

BULLSHIT. BULL. SHIT.

This was just an excuse to humiliate him and make his life as miserable as possible. So far? Mission accomplished. This tiny alchemist has never been tinier and it looks like his temper shrank to match his size. Which, if you're curious and decide to measure, actually isn't even an inch. In fact, the top of that one piece of hair that sticks up doesn't quite reach that mark.

People shrink and somehow he's smaller than all of them. WHAT IS HIS LIFE?

Anyway. To those lucky students who happen to have Lust as teacher for their U.S. history class, they might notice a tiny addition to her desk. There is +1 State Alchemist being used as a paper weight. When graded papers are handed back out, they might notice that the stamped letters have not been made in a "traditional" way. Oh, no. They're made up of tiny footprints and the bottom of Ed's boots are stained black. Damn ink isn't coming off.

B. » ActionTeacher's LoungeLunch

[There was no way Lust was going to leave Ed by himself. Too dangerous. What if he fell off the desk? Or someone stepped on him? Or heard him screaming obscenities, thought he was a bug and squished him with a textbook? No, Lust couldn't have that happen.

Instead, she takes her minuscule charge with her to the teacher's lounge for lunch. In front of her is a line of items based on height. The tube of lipstick Ed transmuted is among them and as for Ed himself? Dead last.

((ooc: responses will be from either Ed, Lust, or both! Just let us know who you want in the tag!))


C. » ActionAround Town - Close to Mayfield HighLate Afternoon/Early Evening

[FREEDOM. He's not sure how it happened, but somehow he managed to get away from Lust and make it outside without getting stepped on. Unfortunately, he didn't get very far before he ran into a problem. There was an ant who apparently marked him as a threat. He was going to have to fight this ant. HE HAD TO FIGHT AN ANT.

Just as it was about to close in on him, Ed claps his hands and touches the ground. Alchemic energy, which from a person of normal height looked a bit like strangely colored, prolonged, especially bright, electric shock, spreads outward towards the ant and a large (to Ed anyway) stone fist erupts from the ground, slams into the ant and sends the bastard flying.

TAKE THAT YOU FUCKING LITTLE JACKASS!

[ While a gun could certainly do it if it was a fatal attack, she still has those little harpy claws in case you miss a fatal area. Of course, this would result in passive aggressive tension between both classes, and mysterious eggings every Friday.

No, no, just kidding! Regardless, Roy's proposition to Lust is a little laughable to her but that's really her feelings about everything related to humanity. ]


Oh, Edward. I needed to retain sight, and those tricky suburban curves could send you flying into the glove compartment. [ That was some rather quick thinking but she turns her attention back to Roy. ]

I believe Edward is more than knowledgeable about chemistry so he can afford to miss a class because of his slight shrinkage. [ ...ha. ha. ha. ]

I think that was the catalyst, still, I wonder why it made Edward so tiny and me so big.

[She peers intently at the desk where the tiny voice seems to be coming from]

mi~i. I am glad to see you having fun time with your Mayfield family. Would you rather that I looked after you, Edward? It is better than you being on the floor. I would have not liked to see you become hurt, sir.

[He glances between the two of them, unsure of how to proceed. He doesn't feel good about leaving Edward with her, but his options are unfortunately limited. He never expected that excuse to work - but now what?]

Well the difference is so minor I'd hardly call it something worth coddling the boy over. Just let him carry on as normal.

Perhaps your bodies are different? Then again, this is Mayfield. [ In other words, don't ask for a straight answer.

Lust slowly clear things out of her way so Ruri can see him. ]

He has fun time with me often. It's part of our very special bond. [ Lust isn't aware of Rika's knowledge on her, but, she does notice Rika's facial changes. She entirely disregards it, because she knows how some humans get. However, there is a slight smile on her face. ]

My apologies, Rika, but Edward has to stay here with me.

Edward, you know more than anyone, if it was close it would have been fatal.

[ She then glances down at the irritated Ed. ] I'm sure if he's shorter than your average test tube, he's not in a condition to come in. Finally, Mr. Mustang, I'm sure a "normal" Ed wouldn't want to be in your class, period.

cannot resist this

[He shrugs at Lust's words.]

I figured it was just because the teachers cared too much about their students to notice me waltzing in.

[Then, he squats down and inspects Edward.]

Naw, I wouldn't call it babysitting, more like shrimp-sitting. You know, I bet they could make a mold of him and get tons of money off of selling Fullmetal Alchemist toys back home. People love this little guy for some reason.

Other than the immediate difference of male and female yes, I'd imagine there are quite a lot of differences. Still, I think being tiny like that would be a bit more convenient, at least there are doll clothes.

Ed...ward... you're...



Are you okay? Um... did you just beat up an ant..?

[identity profile] badend-replay.livejournal.com 2011-10-29 04:14 am (UTC)(link)
m-miii...



... I-I just want to be sure Edward is safe... I don't want you to be hurt...

[identity profile] fatedmagica.livejournal.com 2011-10-29 04:34 am (UTC)(link)


I-I see... I didn't realize ants were so mean... but um... Where were you hoping to go? I mean... I'm sure you can handle walking there on your own but um. I don't mind helping, if you'd like?

[identity profile] fatedmagica.livejournal.com 2011-10-29 04:54 am (UTC)(link)
Ah...hm... well, um...



Well... I guess, my house is pretty normal right now... um... have you ever been to the diner...? Or Cosplay Cafe..? I could show you those? Or get a pastry from the bakery...?

Or maybe they knew your mentality instantly and thought you were just late. [ Lust will just quip at his intelligence as she restricts herself from giggling like a mad woman at Greed's words. That was quite clever but now sh'e'll just wait for the fall out and make herself look like the good person. ]

[identity profile] luxuriality.livejournal.com 2011-10-29 09:05 am (UTC)(link)
Edward, what do you think you're doing? Making a poor girl well up with tears because you're yelling at her? If you react like this to the sweetest, most innocent people, who's to stop you from tearing others to shreds when they notice that you're short. [ Edward knows the tone as sarcastic and biting, Rika will now know the tone as comforting and gentle one. ] Now, apologize to the girl for what you've done to her.

Edward will be safe with me, don't worry.

I guess that is true. Unfortunately, doll clothes are a tiny bit too large for this kid. But, I'm sure he'll manage this for a week, or a day, or however long Mayfield wishes to play us.

[ She says this in a slight upbeat tone, as if she readily agrees and loves Ruri's opinion. ]
