Back from hiatus.

Envy, if you did anything, be prepared for a wrenching.

Pretty sure lasers would be ineffective, too...

Don't worry, Ed and Naoto will take good care of her. Those kids have really been helping Naoto to develop her maternal instincts.

Who says I'm gonna use lasers....?

Yeah...if Winry will allow it. She hates feeling helpless and needy.

[greenwithme.livejournal.com]

Oh? And what exactly WILL you be using, hm~?

So does Naoto... In many ways, those two are a lot alike, you know?

[hands4healing.livejournal.com]

If I tell you, it'll ruin the surprise. <3

Heh. Winry's somewhat in awe of Naoto.

Naoto and Winry should build a Gundam. Because it's been proven that Homunculi are weak against Gundams!

asklkhfaklhfasasjhda D-Don't say things like that!

[hands4healing.livejournal.com]

Heh, a Gundam....

No, she is. Winry is amazed at how many hats Naoto wears. And the whole, "Ed and Al share their secrets they won't tell Winry" - well. Winry feels like she did when the boys were working to bring back their mom. She loves these boys, but them sharing their secrets with everyone but her really hurts.

The thing is, she isn't jealous of Naoto for being the person the boys go to. It makes her feel more like she's not able to provide what they need, and maybe Naoto is the person who should be. What happened with Envy more or less reinforced this feeling.

akjsdfhakfafafkafha p-poor winry... ;A;

Naoto really has... no idea what she's doing. She's an only child, and was a loner for so much of her life that she didn't develop good social skills with others. She constantly second-guesses herself and worries that she's not the best equipped to be an older sister. All she knows is that she wants to protect her family, no matter what. And she wants them to be happy...

And... she kinda suspects that Winry is jealous of her, but doesn't know how to reassure her. I mean, she's got Kanji. She's not out to take Ed away from Winry. Just... it's hard to be objective when Naoto's been through many of the same circumstances as those kids.

Naoto does very well for someone who doesn't have good social skills. :D And she does very well being an older sister.

Winry wants her family to be happy, too.

She doesn't think that Naoto is trying to take Ed (right now, there isn't anything that could be taken away, anyway). More that Ed and Al obviously trust Naoto more. Maybe they need Naoto more than they need her. And really? Winry would be okay with that, if they were happy. Naoto can take care of herself, she wouldn't be a burden to the Elrics.

Sooo.... XD

Well. She learned. A lot. Earning friends does wonders for your social skills!

God, they're such an adorably dysfunctional family, aren't they?

[hands4healing.livejournal.com]

She learned a lot. :D

They are. Definitely.
