I don't like people from the military.

To tell the truth, I don't like the military either.

Because at times, I am forced to kill people.

Then, why are you in the military?

There is someone I need to protect.

But, I'm not being forced by anyone to do it.

It's by my own free will.

It is my own choice to kill people.

For the person whom I must protect, until he reaches his goal.

Simple People

I wonder what we should get for souvenirs?

For granny, we can get some smoking tobacco.

But what should we get for Winry?

We don't have to get her anything.

She'll get nothing, nothing!

We can't do that.

You didn't take care of your automail and it broke.

You should get something for her,

or you'll be killed.

How pathetic...

We burned down our house and left for good, and we end up having to go back for repairs this soon.

What to do...

That's right, Winry just had her ears pierced, right?

How could you ruin it this much in such a short amout of time?

Don't "hahahaha" me!

And you never even give us a single phone call!

They're gifts, take them!

Well, I guess you can't help it.

The souvenir plan is a success.

Oh, they're silver earrings.

They aren't too plain?

Not at all. Did you choose them, Al?

Yeah...

Maybe we should have gotten something like this instead.

Ed, don't choose.

These are cool though!

Oh? I didn't know you only had your left ear pierced.

I shouldn't have bought a pair.

It's fine, I'll just pierce my right ear too.

Thanks, guys.

You're so simple, being happy about little things like these.

Damn, I don't have any time to transmute!

Thank you, Al!

Soon that arm of yours won't be able to move.

You think this'll stop it?

What?

He's still able to move it?

This is her automail, don't underestimate it!

We thank you for your assistance!

As expected from a State Alchemist!

Nah, it's nothing, we're glad to help.

Is it alright?

It's not alright at all.

We'll have to ask Winry to repair it again.

Wrench or spanner?

Which one will Winry use to beat you up after she sees this?

Either way, she makes too big a deal out of it.

But she only gets angrier each time you break it.

It's not my fault that it broke anyway.

The knives were pretty sharp this time.

It's all his fault.

Excuses won't work, Winry's pretty strong when she's angry, remember?

I remember...

What now?

We still have our last resort.

Welcome back!

We're home.

Ta-dah! They're the ones you gave me.

Oh! So you wore them!

Yeah!

I'm back, Granny!

You're back? There will be a stew for dinner.

Oh, alright!

Oh yeah, Winry.

Repair this quickly.

Repair?

Don't tell me you broke it again?!

It's a gift.

It can't be helped then.

Yay! New earrings!

Maybe I should reinforce it, so it won't break so easily?

That'll make it too heavy, won't it?

Instead, how about just reinforcing the important parts?

You're right.

By the way, why did you start wearing earrings all of a sudden?

Why, I wonder?

Do you wanna be sexy or...

Do you remember that military lady who came over?

Military lady?

Do you mean Second Lieutenant Hawkeye?

She's a Lieutenant now.

She was here when...

Yeah, that day.

When I decided to be State Alchemist.

What about being a State Alchemist?

Who would want to be a dog of military?

I will.

To get Al's old body back,

I'll become a military dog or anything else.

Brother.

Ed.

Yeah.

I saw Miss Hawkeye wearing earrings and just thought "Hey, it looks kinda good."

That's a pretty simple reason, isn't it?

It's fine even if it's simple.

Well, even with earrings, the gap between you and the Lieutenant is like earth and heaven.

What's that supposed to mean?

I think it means exactly how it sounds.

Al, even you say so too?!

No, it's not like that!

You're getting angry too easi-

Well, we'll be leaving now.

Thanks for the repair.

Take a good care of your automail.

Don't use cheap oil.

Okay, okay.

You made more holes?

They're for the ones you gave me yesterday, two!

Do you think you should be making so many holes?

It hurts just looking at it.

But, they're gifts the two of you gave me.

Of course I want to put them all on.

You keep making more holes just because of that!?

Stupid! You're so stupid!

What if we bring ten or twenty of them? Where are you going to pierce next?!

Will you make a piercing for all of them on your ears? Huh!?

Your piercings will be so heavy...

You are going a bit too far...

Really, how can you be this stupid!?

There are limits to these things...

What do you mean stupid!?

Stupid, stupid!

I'm not buying you anymore gifts!

You're stupid for calling others stupid!

Then, idiot, you idiot!

You're ticking me off, you shrimp!

You're a shir-... Who are you calling a shrimp!?

A shrimp is a shrimp and that's you!

So peaceful.

No I'm not! Stop calling me that!

Hey, that was...

Yeah, she's the "Hawk Eye."

Seeing her accuracy makes me want to practice more.

It grew quite a bit, you're hair.

You're right, it's starting to get in the way.

Maybe I should tie it up soon.

You've always kept it short.

Why did you suddenly decide to grow it long?

Is there a man who likes it long?

That's not it.

I met a girl with long hair when I went to Resembool.

And I thought keeping it long might not be bad.

That's all? What a simple reason.

You think so?

Reasons are always simple.

We're living in a very simple world.

Where we pull the trigger, and the enemy dies.
