Long Time No See {OPEN}

[Guest]

----I've gotta say,
LONG TIME NO SEE

'Rock. Rock. Rock. Oh look, another rock. I am BORED.'

Frowning to himself as he sat on the roof looking like someone took any source of fun away from him, the single-eyed half-homunculus-thing (He honestly had no idea what to call himself anymore, so confusing) sighed, dangling his legs over the street below of his new apartment.

...Actually, it was his old apartment when he used to live here - the benefit of buying, your property doesn't run away on you when on vacation (Take that, bitches) - though Endavi could hardly call two years in hiding a 'vacation'.

If vacations involved a year of boredom and a year of whoredom, then yeah, Endavi has the 'time of his life' - not. In all honesty, being really damned good in the bedroom aside, Endavi would ave to say rather bluntly that those were the two most uneventful and boring years of his life.

All he did was successfully learn more about automail, learn about financial crap from his parents, and went from 'virgin' to 'sex god' due a certain 'career' he had in Xing for a year.

If it weren't for the fact he was long-since used to the idea (a year is a long time, anyone would adjust), Endavi would've probably shivered or spent a bunch of time in Tsune-related emo-despair.

But when he met Tsune, he was sure the silver cutie would understand - Davs wasn't exactly confident he could cheat death with his healing ability via starvation... Though Endavi vowed to keep the part about the fact he rather enjoyed that job out of the equation - no one needs to know that.

But Endavi had to admit, it did pay pretty well.

Shaking the thoughts of whoring himself out again, out of his head, the eye-patch donning man just sighed as he watched the recovering city below - oh, and did he mention he was BORED?

[Jay Furor]

(>xD You shalt have this thread JACKED for abandoning poor Kae-less Sec and Kidato-less Nyx. xD)

Jay was merrily skipping around Central. YES. SKIPPING. Why, exactly? Ah, only because she still couldn't contain the awesome of the new department she headed and the nice uniform she knitted and the awesome rank she was given. I mean, who COULD be not excited when they have the name Brigadier General Jay Furor? THE NAME ALONE IS EPIC. Only thing to beat it would be Fuhrer Furor! Anyways, Jay skipped through Central on a merry skipping spree. In fact, the only reason she stopped skipping is because she noticed someone on a roof a bit away. Curious thing she was, Jay kinda wanted to see who and why someone was standing on a roof in the first place. So, with lack of her old grappling hook automail arm (Darky couldn't do THAT much work with Xerxian Jade!), she instead grabbed a streetlamp and managed to climb it, ending up on the roof after a few short climbing sessions. Easy-peasy.

Upon walking silently across the roof, she then recognized the man she saw. It took a bit of doing, considering he looked HORRIBLE compared to his appearance previously. What HAPPENED to him, anyways? Jay decided to grin and speak up. "Davi! How's life been treating you these days? Yah miss me?~"

[Guest]

"...Huh?" Was all Endavi could respond as he turned to see someone who seemed to recognize him. Blond hair, weird appendages, female... nothing really seemed to ring a bell with the raven, though he had to admit, he did kind of walk out of Amestris two years ago with a hazy memory (ripping out your own eye amongst other things can kind of shake your mind up a little), so he wasn't surprise he forgot a fair bit of his life and time around the place.

He also had to admit the girl was well-endowed, chest-wise, and couldn't help but think that she'd make good money in the brothel he used to work in.

Endavi mentally smacked himself for that - not everyone wanted to be a whore for a living, unlike a certain homunculus-human-halfbreed who had pleased way too many men to count. All he knew was it was enough to make him the highest earner in the place - not his fault he was sexy and he knew it - weird eye or not.

"My apologies, but I don't know who you are," Endavi said in that polite voice (brothel or not, it was high class, they practically beat submissive politeness into him, so it was a habit these days, though he didn't have to look like he cared) as he pulled out a small compact mirror, using it to fix up his eyeshadow and eye-liner, before he put it away and turned to face the blonde woman with suspicion on his features.

"Though you seem to know me."

[Jay Furor]

Jay was officially confused. "Holdupholdupholdup. You don't remember me? Jay Furor? Your brother, Jacques, I bought him a new coat? We ticked off Jackwad that time on the bounty?" Jay took a seat next to him, her eyes betraying her obvious confusion. How could he just eh... FORGET two years ago? TWENTY, maybe, but TWO!? It seriously had NOT been that long ago! Did he get amnesia or something? Ah well, Jay would just do what ALWAYS works on TV, and talk to him as if he remembered everything. Yeah, that always works! "Ah, whatever then. Still can't see how you could've forgotten such a notorious criminal goddess as myself, or at least what I used to be, but oh well. So, whatcha been up to these past two years? Haven't since a glimpse of your almighty Wrath-ness in ages~"

(~(xD Just so you know, IC Jay is indeed a pimp now. owo Sooo... Davi COULD be a hooker! xD)~)

[Guest]

"Jacques... Jacques... Ah, he was a homunculus too, wasn't he?" Endavi muttered to himself as he turned to face her completely, his whole figure moving with the grace of a fine woman, over his usual powerful rigid movements he used to pull. His facial expression was even a look of that powerful grace - a serene look, over his usual glared and defiant look.

Endavi had really changed over the two years - he was completely different.

"Jacques wasn't really my brother, I don't have any real siblings," Endavi said in that graceful, polite, yet cold tone as he walked over to her, Mugen at his hip as always as he reguarded her - mildly thinking she was short.

He had to admit, she did seem familiar, but Endavi had really forgotten alot of the little things back in his time here. After all, he was here for five years before leaving, two years ago, so his mind kind of just summed up the five years, and the little dramatic eye-ripping-out thing kind of helped kill a bit of his memory.

Apart from that fight, and Tsune, everything else was pretty hazy, really.

"I've simply been traveling, and I'm no longer technically Wrath, apart from my healing abilities I'm just a normal human. Call me a halfbreed, if you will," Endavi said with a gracious nod as he walked towards the opening the divided the stairwell to the roof, before he opened it, "I admit I need some filling in, so if you want I can cook you something to eat and you can tell me what I've missed in return. Perhaps you can even help me find Tsune,"

Nodding again, as he felt no need to smile, the graceful man then made his way into the building, expecting the girl to follow - after all, he did need the information. He vaguely wondered if he'd surprise her with his... polite attitude, because if he remember correctly, he was a dick when he lived here, but brash and painful has turned into silent and deadly, so it was quite good to say that Endavi was more powerful than he used to be.

But of course he was, it's been two years after all.

[Jay Furor]

Jay nodded along as Endavi spoke. She, of course, knew Jacques hadn't been his REAL, biological brother; but honestly, the two really did seem to Jay like brothers of blood, rather than brothers of the Ouroboros. "Oh, yeah, I knew that. You two were rather close, though." Twas indeed true, as Jay could tell. Jacques had been the only one she'd considered to be akin to Endavi's brother, however. Xanthus, Ever, Darky, Reaver- All of them were indeed homunculi, though Darky was only a shadow of Pride, a half-homunculus, yet none were, by Jay, related to Endavi, by blood or Mark.

And at that point, Endavi noted that he, also, was no longer a true homunculus, to which Jay responded with a nod. That made sense, as one Wrath could not exist while another was active, and while Reaver wasn't QUITE as fun as Endavi, he was indeed Wrathful. "Ah, okay. I have a friend like that, I told you about him, though I doubt you remember him now. I'd always figured you either died or lost your power. New guy's Wrath apparently. Charming fellow, he is, pulled a gun on me for buying wine at his cafe!~ Not nearly as friendly as you, not at all. I think most of the homunculi are gone these days, the original ones anyways. I know Father is. Pride's still the same, though."

And upon an invitation to food, Jay smiled. "Well, well, well, two years and you forget about everything but your manners~ Thanks Davi,that would be lovely."

[Guest]

"Two years in Xing's finest brothel teaches you a few things," Endavi said as he lead her to his apartment, before opening it up and letting her in first - gay as he may be, ladies first was a rule (and something you got smacked for not following at his old workplace - ah, he missed those days - he would've stayed if he wasn't so infatuated with Tsune).

"Sorry If I'm different, I... seemed to have hit my head, you could say, before I left. Tearing out my eye was quite painful," Endavi said with a smile, though it was a cold smile, it was still a smile - and come on, this was Endavi, he NEVER use to smile, "I'm afraid my memories of Amestris are limited, Wrath probably locked them away for me or something, though I must admit, Tsune... Ah, I miss him, I could describe him, but you'd call me a lovesick fool, which I am, I'm afraid,"

Smiling at the thought of the male he hadn't seen in so long, Endavi seemed to be in a short daze, before he literally snapped himself out of it by snapping his fingers, and gracefully making his way into the kitchen with a sheepish look on his face, the eye-patch not disturbing it in the slightest, "I admit I do faintly remember you and Jacques too - were you there when he and I -I think - were raiding some building? I know Tsune was there, and a few other hazy faces. Ah, how is Jacques, by the way? Is he well? Or... has he passed on?"

The old Endavi probably would've said something to 'Is that idiot dead yet?', but alas, Endavi went through an amazing change over the past 2 years, but 'being in love' did funny things to you - even turning assholes into gentlemen, it could.

"By any chance do you mind Tempura Ramen? Even after all of these years, it's still a personaly favourite of mine,"

[Jay Furor]

Jay's eyes lit at the word brothel. Erm... From her experience brothel was a fancy-pants way of saying Pimp Inn, which was EXACTLY the business variety that SHE co-owned! How wonderful, perhaps if he ever decided to go back to brotheling, he could work for her! Which, Jayishly as always, she was quick to point out. "A brothel eh? I wouldn't figure you for that line of work, Davi. Well, if you ever want to go back to that line of work, come see me and my friend Alex at the New Optain Inn, ne?~" Giving a slight grin and a wink, she stepped through the door, while thanking him for such gentlemanly deeds as getting the door for her. Then he mentioned Tsune again. Tsune, Tsune... The name struck a ring in her mind but she couldn't quite place the name...

"Hmm... This Tsune guy, what's he like? I know I know him, I just don't remember him. Been a very full two years for me too, went back to the military. A dog can't go back to being a cat, I guess~" He then described their encounter beforehand, to which she nodded encouragingly. "Yep~ On the roof, and I capped some cops for getting in my business, and that cat-girl, eh... Falon! Yeah, she ran up the building and started rubbing on your leg, purring and stuff. " Jay grinned, as he seemed to be regaining his memory, which was always a very good thing, good thing indeed.

As to his next question, Jay didn't really know quite how to answer it. "Dunno, really... Last I saw him, me'n this kid, Kana, lovely killer that boy was, were trying to put down some poor girl, happened to see Kana's victim. Next thing I know, Jacques was there, helping us out. Then we dipped up outta there, and I didn't never see him again. Oh! And the kid, eh, Kana! He kept talking about you, saying you were there with him, his Davi-chan, or something. Creepy kid. I liked him, though." And as she contemplated what had happened to Jacques and Kana, she nodded in agreement to the ramen. She liked Aerugese food anyways, so it was all good. Hmm... And where was that girl, come to think of it?

[Guest]

"A brothel eh? I wouldn't figure you for that line of work, Davi. Well, if you ever want to go back to that line of work, come see me and my friend Alex at the New Optain Inn, ne?~" She offered with a grin as Endavi sighed, not bothering to keep up the smile any more as his expression darkened; "I appreciate the offer, Miss Furor, but I guess, to put it as the old me would say it, 'being fucked up the ass by a bunch of disgusting bastards isn't my idea of fun' - I feel disgusting enough as is, I can afford to not whore myself out to men when I'm in the country I met Tsune in - it would be the worst."

As Jay talked, Endavi frowned, remembering the clingly cat girl, before sighing and beginning to make the ramen - he promised food in exchange for information, after all, though he had a feeling he'd get the information either way - the girl liked to talk; "Tsune was... beyond words. In Aurego, we'd call him a Tsundere. Long silver hair, beautiful cerulean eyes - a sharp tongue, yet kind... ah, I'm babbling again. It's hard to believe a fashion-driven hard-head like I used to be has been driven by something as menial as love for the past two years - stupid, but it's true," He responded in kind with a small reminiscent smile - his memory hazy, but he said what he remembered about his love- "Oh! He had an auto-mail arm as well, I remember fixing it once - I did a crappy job, being a beginner, but he seemed happy with it... Ah, sorry, I'm babbling again - I do remember Falon, strange girl she was. Wrath complained about her a fair bit I think, I'm not sure, I used to ignore him back then,"

As she spoke again, a childish look of hope and surprise shot across the man's face as he suddenly raced over to the girl and gripped her shoulders in surprise, forgetting his meal for the time being - "Kana? Are you serious? Kana's alive? I haven't seen him for nearly a decade, I thought he was dead...! He was my best friend, before I left Aurego and all this homunculus stuff happened. I was a foolish child,"

Smiling happily, now knowing that his childhood friend hadn't died so long ago, the man returned to the kitchen bench as he untied his hair, chuckling lightly as he began to knead the dough (perfectionist to the core - cooked from scratch was the only road to satisfaction); "It's a long story, but we used to attend the same dojo together, where I gained Mugen. He was like my brother, and I must admit, I miss him, but alas, I've a different ghost to chase,"

Obviously, he was referring to Tsune.

[Jay Furor]

Jay grinned, rather charmed by the Endavi-like statement of the type she knew and loved. "I understand whatcha mean, Davi~ Personally, I quite like the managerial side of the business. And I get the Tsune thing too. I think it's cute~ You know what they say, true love is the cure for anything~" As Jay spoke, her mnd wandered off to the distant nether-regions, where she pondered a rather important question- Where was HER true love? Lexi hadn't been around for a while... Jay wondered where she was, if she was alright, and lately she was thinking about her a lot more lately...

Jay awoke from her daydreams to a vivid description of Tsune. Silver hair... Cerulean eyes?... She knew this guy... WHOWASTHISTSUNEOFWHICHSHEHADFORGOTTEN!!!??? No matter, she'd figure out who he was eventually. Maybe even track him down for Davi, old time's sake! But as she considered these thoughts, she noted to keep watch for another face- Kana. Seemed Endavi really did know him. "Not really sure where he is now, but last I saw him apprently Truth sorta mindscrewed him. His little puppet body just sort of exploded into a human version of him. Kinda awkward actually..."

((Sorry it's taking me a while to reply, I'm having trouble finding my muse for it ><;))

"...For some reason, I don't even want to know what happened after that," Endavi said, not really wanting to think what the hell might've happened to his old friend, whether he was dead, alive, or whatever - Kana was old news to the homunculus, he kind of forgot how to truly give a shit when he, you know, had a rock engraved into his brain? Kudos to anyone who has any idea what 'rock' he's referring to. The Philosopher's Stone

"And just because I'm hunting for Tsune doesn't mean I'm desperate, I'm just... Well, I need a better purpose that being Xing's number one whore." Endavi said with a sigh, finally relaxing somewhat around this person as he let his older persona slip in a bit. He was a sarcastic jerk and proud, he just hides behind a polite facade at first to lure people in.

Whore habits die hard, as they say.

Jay nodded, agreeing. "Wherever he went after I last saw him, it's just a mystery I guess. Hope he's doing alright." She agreed with Endavi on this one; she’d rather not know what happened to Kana. Hopefully, after he exploded into a human, he either got some mental help and resumed a NORMAL LIFE, or at least didn’t get caught by the feds. As Endavi made a second statement, Jay was forced to laugh. Not at what he said, but the way he said it. “Ah, sorry about that. I just happened to notice that the old you was back, complete with all of his accessorizing snark. Hehe, that’s the Davi That always amused me, y’know~ And as for the hunting for Tsune, I get that. Actually, we’re both on about the same road, there. I can’t seem to find my darling little Lexi anywhere~” With a light chuckle and her ever-present smile when speaking on the topic of love, especially to Endavi who brought out a smile anyways, Jay once again wondered where Lexi was… “Y’know, maybe I’ll keep a lookout for your Tsune and tell you if I find him, eh? Favor for a friend~”
