And the military man slung him over his back and carried him all the way to South Headquarters for questioning.
What a shame, but good for you for finding him. He sounds special. I want you to forget about tracking the "Smellric Brothers" for now and keep your eye on the little imp. You got it? [Greed hangs up] Turns out those Elric boys are exactly as you described them.
Yes, I'm sure they'll be of great use to you.
When I first heard that Envy, Pride and the rest were after these twerps I didn't give a damn anyway. I just wanted to grab the boys myself to piss off the others. But now the boys have led us to someone actually worth chasing. To think there's a homunculus, like me, who can honestly use alchemy. We need to have him on our side, or things may get complicated later.
Let me break him out, sir.
Have you gone insane? You can't just go charging into that place. It's a bloody fortress! You're a former military lab rat. I shouldn't have to tell you that.
Not that anyone asked but I used to be stationed at South Headquarters back in the day
You're right. We didn't ask, so keep your trap shut, state alchemist.
No. Sense you so passive-aggresively volunteered, perhaps you can guide these two there. But, if I learned you've betrayed our cause, I won't be so friendly.
You can rest easy, "boss man". All I'm really wanting, is the chance to make some fireworks again.
