PSA; Please Read, Blog Moving!

     So, here’s the short version; I’m going to be reorganizing my roleplay blogs, which means that this blog will be moving in the near future. It will be switched instead to a sideblog, which I’m still working on putting together, and will be attached to a multimuse, roleplay hub account.

     I’ll put the longer explanation under the cut.

Elric casually took a step back as the portal unraveled and the hoverporter arrived. Poke-faced he blinked a few times, quietly watching the earwig.
When the little pterosaur was set down, he went and knelt by it, prodding it again with an automail finger, his wings shifting curiously. “You’re telling me…” The winged alchemist replied, and kept pestering the poor thing.
As the light flashed and the rainforest came into view, he stood slowly, tilting his head and wonder swirling in his golden eyes. “…I-I’ll have to trust you on that, Erwick.” He muttered, feeling a little uneasy. “This kinda place definitely doesn’t look like anywhere I’ve been. But– if it’s just a drop off we shouldn’t be there too long, right?”
Apparently the alchemist was having second thoughts about helping out the Englishman. He was the true chicken after all.

     “... It shouldn’t take long, no,” Erwick answered, glancing at the creature... “Once we’re on the other side, it’ll be time to remove the netting and set it free. And also duck, because it’ll probably fly right at your face.” The teen had discovered that the hard way; fortunately he’d been so badly startled that an unintentional burst of flames surprised the ill-tempered creature right back, chasing it off.

     Carrying the strange beast, he stepped through the portal... Into a whole other world, and a very different time. The humidity washed over him like a tidal wave, and the chatter of strange, unknown creatures filled the air. In some ways, it felt less like the ancient past... And more like entering the jungle of an alien planet. Even the vegetation was strange and unfamiliar, aside from ferns. Those, at least, hadn’t changed that much.

     Erwick glanced back to his alternate, the moisture already plastering the teen’s wild bangs to his forehead. He forced a slight grin, though it probably wasn’t very convincing. “Coming?” he asked, “Who knows, maybe we’ll spot another variety of dinosaur. You had those in your world too, correct?” On one hand, a lot of kids would have loved to see a real, live dinosaur for themselves. They hadn’t walked the earth for millions of years.

     But on the other hand... If ‘Jurassic Park’ was to be believed, they might not be very friendly.

Erwick’s ‘Fire in Those Eyes’ Verse in a Nutshell

     - smells like smoke, tea, and broken dreams

     - has forgotten what normal is

     - legally dead twice

     - Spontaneous Human Combustion™

     - thinks he’s hot stuff

     - technically a walking spoiler

     - probably certifiably insane by this point

     - literal hellspawn

     - will pun-ish you with the worst jokes known to man

     - human calculator

     - somehow manages to break the multiverse on a daily basis

     - intellectual idiot

     - honestly has no idea what he’s doing with his life

     - who needs ‘people skills’ anyway

     - eternal grudge against avian dinosaurs

     - Bowties are Cool (except not really)

     - on a never ending quest to save the world or something

     - in other words we’re all screwed

     So, it’s that time again– like or reblog if you’d be interested in writing with a hecked up canon divergent trainwreck of a London!Edward, loosely based on Fullmetal Alchemist 2003! After his accidental, untimely demise in the heart of WWI, this walking forest fire spends his days exploring the multiverse, inventing forbidden portal devices, spontaneously combusting at inopportune moments, keeping his legion of parallel selves from breaking absolutely every law ever devised, and occasionally slap-fighting the apocalypse. DISCLAIMER; mun not responsible for any demon summonings, minor Armageddons, unexplained explosions, escaped pterodactyls, or scientific innovations gone horribly wrong. This natural disaster brought to you by Timey.

        “ That’s good, at least. My other plan was to leave some money on the counter to try to pay for some of the damages, but I dunno if the 20 dollars I have in my wallet is really gonna cut it. 
         “ Plus,  he added, cringing slightly at the smoking wreckage all around him, “ I dunno if that pile of rubble really counts as a counter anymore. 
        He then turned his attention back to the beast currently caught in Erwick’s net. As silly as it might sound if he said it out loud, he could’ve sworn it was giving him a death glare. 
         “ Anyway, what are we gonna do with this guy? Release him back into his own time period again? I’m wondering whether or not he’s just gonna come flying right back. “

     “... That’s a fair point,” Erwick had to admit with a hint of frustration. “It’s the same pterodactyl, the exact same one I keep sending back. Either someone is intentionally tossing it all over the place just to spite me, or the multiverse needs to find a new recurring joke.” He glared at the bird-like creature pointedly, grumbling something under his breath.

     “Unfortunately, sending it back again is the only plausible option,” the teen decided. “Not doing so could result in a form of the butterfly effect; one moment in time, with one specific creature, can have lasting effects on the timeline it came from. However...” The cogs started turning in his mind, running through the possibilities.

      “... Perhaps I should track it this time.” Maybe he couldn’t risk any kind of actual tracking device, but Erwick could always follow the prehistoric creature on foot. If someone really was sending it out over and over again, he might just catch a glimpse of the guilty party. And if not... Maybe he’d figure out where his avian nemesis keeps going to get flung across the multiverse.

     “I’d never really paused to examine which dinosaurs had feathers. Maybe I could make note of that this time,” he mused, plucking his makeshift phone from one pocket... Erwick tapped out a message to Sylvia and sent it, certain she would arrive quite quickly. After all, hours on her end could be mere moments to them; time didn’t travel in a straight line when everyone involved could travel through it on a whim. He glanced to Danny, somehow both amused and apprehensive... “It could be educational, though I suppose you’re not studying paleontology.”

     The Englishman managed a sheepish grin. All things considered, taking the younger teen along was probably extremely irresponsible. But on the flip side... It was dangerous to go alone, and Erwick didn’t fancy having a carnivorous reptile sneak up on him. “Care to go on a field trip?”

Elric gave an annoyed look in response to the lecture, and stepped back, shoving his hands back into his coat pockets. “Geez.” He muttered. “You know there’s a nice way to correct people, dumbass.” The boy rolled his eyes, having been made stupid.
He kicked a scorched rock, then glanced back to the earwig. “You think after everything we’ve been through that I can’t handle a little featherless chicken?” Once again, he called it a chicken despite being corrected. It was definitely easier to pronounce anyhow.
“You only have to torture me with your blabbering, let’s save this guy the trouble…” Elric felt a bit bad for the pterosaur, it didn’t ask to be stuck in between two angry blonde children screeching at each other…

     Erwick may not have felt particularly bad for the creature, considering how many times it had managed to ruin his day... But he had to admit, Elric had a point. They didn’t really have time for a paleontology lesson, or for Erwick to continuously remind his alternate that this was most certainly not a chicken, either.

     “... True, and it’s anyone’s guess how long we have before the authorities arrive, anyway.” If the mess wasn’t cleaned up by then, the Englishman might be in a bit of trouble; the Order didn’t exactly condone wanton property damage, or the accidental reveal of the multiverse. It would definitely be for the best if none of them were still in the cafe by then.

     Before opening the portal, however, he set down the creature, fishing around in one coat pocket for a moment... Pulling a small device from it which vaguely resembled a phone-- albeit with no wires, and quite a bit clunkier in design. It was something the teen had cobbled together a ways back from salvaged technology; essentially, a cell phone and walkie-talkie hybrid with inter-dimensional capabilities. He’d used it to discreetly contact Sylvia on a couple previous occasions, though that wasn’t exactly something he was proud of.

     After painstakingly typing out a ‘text’ on the cracked screen, and attaching his coordinates to the message... Erwick sent it with one last tap. “She should be here soon,” he commented. “Sylvia can never turn down a challenge, especially if it’s in legally murky territory.” Sure enough, there was a beep from his device as a response came, and a moment later... A brilliant flash overhead as the Hoverporter arrived, Sylvia on-board.

     Erwick promptly pointed the mechanism on his wrist forward, tapping a button. BZAP! A portal cracked open before them, leading to what seemed like a vast and unfamiliar rainforest. With that, the Englishman picked up the captured pterodactyl and stepped towards it, glancing back to Elric once more.

     “We should probably go release this before she lands,” he decided. “Sylvia never was very good at that. Last time, she parked it directly on someone else’s automobile.” With the way this day was going, Erwick wouldn’t be surprised if she crashed the flying machine right into them. It wouldn’t be the craziest occurrence in the past 24 hours.
