star_kingdom | [Video] 001 * Intro & Traverse Town

[There's a bit of static. The device is recording, but its user has no idea how to use it and for a moment, all you can see is the white blur of a young teenager's hand. The sound of heavy breathing and a heavy footfall on cobblestones can be heard. Between the cracks in the hand, small flashes of red.

The image is suddenly free, looking at the sky of Traverse Town, and with a clatter, a glimpse of a golden braid and then a skidding sound as more of the child comes into view. Edward Elric has tripped and fallen, white gloved hand outstretched, the other hand beneath him.]

Son of a bitch.

[He rolls flat on his back and pushes himself up onto his elbows, eyeing the innocent stuffed animal with a red puff ball that has been chasing after him. Nothing that innocent looking is good in his experience. His chest heaves with the heavy breathing and he reaches for the device again, grumbling.]

Turn it off, turn it off.

[His face comes into view, strikingly golden eyes are focused on the device as though the moogle were remote controlled...]

Well for starters you can communicate with everyone else who was drawn here. You never know when more people from your home might start showing up.

I'm pretty sure there was something else..

But if you ever need help or anything, all you need to do is flip on your communicator. Everyone's been really helpful here.

Mostly they're laughing at me. [Ed is pouting, flush with annoyance.]

The moogle is gone now. He gave me munny.

They probably didn't mean anything by it.

[Although she isn't entirely sure]

That's what they use in the shops here.

I'm sure. [He doesn't believe it.]

Shops huh? [Ed has his hands in his pockets, slouching now.] Kinda hungry.

[Naru is a little naive but she means well]

That's right. They've got places to eat too.

I just got here like a week ago myself but I could show you around if you like.

Through this plastic thing?

[She can't help but giggle]

No silly, I meant I could meet up with you.
