During their travels Ed had found plenty of berries that he hoped would be enough to keep the ponyta satisfied - at least until he could talk to someone and figure out what else he was missing about caring for it. That is, before he could get it off his hands, of course. Maybe someone in the next town would take it. He had places to be, like not here. Being trapped in a new world wasn't exactly a foreign experience for him, but that didn't mean he wanted to repeat it any time soon. And yet, here he is. He'd taken the moment to stretch out for a bit, mindful of the fact that a wild pokemon could approach without any notice as he went back to the Gear that had been provided in his bag.

He had no idea where he was, or what he was doing here, but there had to be an explanation somewhere and he certainly wasn't getting it by sitting around all day.

"Nothing about this place makes sense..." He muttered, turning it on and working out how to send a message - to just about anyone at this point. He looked through the menu as he pointedly tried to ignore the music that there seemed to be no escaping. No matter how much of the information he went over, or how many times he read it, it just didn't add up. How did he get here, what was he doing here - and how was he supposed to get back to Al? He didn't have time to be training some other world's animals to fight with each other, and he certainly wasn't interested in winning any badges that held no significance to him whatsoever.

He spoke to some of the locals before heading out of town, and a few openly talked about "new arrivals" as if it was a common enough occurrence. Nothing surprising or unusual about people showing up from different worlds. That was no help. Or... it could be, if someone else from another world had an idea of how the coming and going worked. As far as he could tell, the Gear worked like a phone or a broadcast, so the first thing he did was set it to broadcast his message - in the hopes of reaching more people.

"Hey, does anyone know how to get the hell back out of this place? There's got to be someone that can hear me who's not from here, right? The locals act like it happens all the time. If people are always coming and going, there has to be a way to get out.

I can't stay here, I need to get back to my brother."

[Feel free to tag him with normal or 4th wall stuff - this is video btw, and I'll likely do brackets in tags but I match style either way!]

[Okay, look, a certain someone from his Old Work Crew (tm) popping up may or may not have had to do with his increased vigor in returning to his long-abandoned mission.]

[Either way, when Edward Elric pops up on his PokeGear screen? Wrath knows what to do.]

[Good thing for everybody* that traveling during these strange weekends gets super easy and fast!]


Edward Elric!

[Ed probably never wanted to hear that voice again. But here it is anyway.]

[An impressive snapping of branches occurs as Wrath, now in his full Homunculus glory, DESCENDS from above to land directly in front of Edward. His hair is full of leaves. He doesn't seem to care.]


I knew you'd show up here eventually.


[*It's not good, for anybody.]
garbagechild: and they don't even think you are worth playing whimsical little tricks and japes on (I was talking with the gnomes earlier)

I was in the tree.

[Wrath has two modes: constant Homunculus melodrama, and literal to a fault. Right now, he's apparently the latter one.]

Anyway, Mommy and I have been looking for you all day, so if you'll just sit there a moment, I'm gonna call her.

[And... and then he just, pulls a weird little contraption out of... seemingly thin air, and starts to hit buttons on it. He was... either being snide, or he genuinely does think that Edward will just stand there like a dope while Wrath calls up the horrifying result of his resurrection attempt and tells her where they are. It is genuinely hard to tell.]
