Elise and her family had been absent from the more populated areas on the Nexus lately--Cruxis had ferreted out their hiding place, and they'd had to throw off the trail again. It was getting harder and harder to keep ahead of them, and Kratos wasn't going to be able to keep them off the trail for long.
But for now they were safe, and Elise decided to go find out if the apartments might be a better place to hole up for a while, and catch up on what had been going on recently. So she and Lloyd headed onto the ground and up to the second building, hitting the buzzer for their friend's apartment. |

Trisha was out in the gardens, enjoying the warm September air, and picking flowers (with Fletcher's permission, of course!) for a lovely arrangement in the apartment.
Anyone wanna stop and say hi? |

A day or two after his conversation with alternates, Ed knocks on the door of his landlords office before poking his head in. "I'm not sure if you'll kill me or not." |

Having found out from his wife which apartments Elizabeth and the Tringhams were staying in, Ed treks up to knock on Elizabeth's door. He'll get to the Tringhams in a moment. For now, he's just going to get her and Al's attention first. |

Once the conversation with the Gate and Envy were done, Ed walks over to the first building. He's really wanting to talk to the landlord right now.
Ed walks into the office without bothering to knock. "You were right," he announces without preamble. |

| In the garden, Colin... |
[Aug. 1st, 2011|08:46 pm] |
Envy tosses and turns in his bed, napping underneath too-heavy-for-the-heat blankets. He is dreaming. He sees the Gate in the dream, and it stares at him, warning him for all he could tell.
The past week was weighing on his mind before he went to bed, tired of thinking. He'd spent the past few hours absorbed in books that could tell him about such strange sciences as time travel and portals through the universes. It had hit him that the Gate was one such portal. When faced with Shou's question about how he'd get his life back, he had no idea how Ed had done it. So he ran to his books, trying to tap into the reserve of his brain that still held out for daredevil experiments, the Nexus and possibly the Gate. If he could find the Gate, maybe what he had heard at the Sign about the Gate could help him. If he could just face it, maybe... but he had no way of summoning it.
He woke after the Gate in his dream slammed shut, almost falling out of bed at the dream-boom of its doors. He got up silently and went outside after making coffee. It was still three in the afternoon, and he lit up a cigarette and sipped the too-strong espresso outside the door of the second building, bleary-eyed in the sunlight. He scanned the grounds, chain-smoking, then let out an audible hiss of frustration. Couldn't he ask somebody about the Gate? Was that allowed?
He was toying with the idea of bothering the landlord, but decided against it. Instead, he leaned against the doorframe, every so often taking out another cigarette, chain-smoking out of stress. |

Ed arrives back on the grounds in a fury, PINing back from the Sign near the landlord's office. He barely resists the urge to just...lash out at something, anything, and get his mind into some form of coherency before going to talk to Edward about this new complication in the Nexus.
If this influx of Envies turns into a trend, he is going to have WORDS with the multiverse.
After a minute or so of standing outside and seething with rage, he goes over to the office and opens the door. "We have a problem." |

| Water Balloon Fight. |
[Jul. 22nd, 2011|08:33 pm] |
There had been notes attached to doors warning people on what day and time a water balloon fight was planned. Along with the information that for this purpose, anyone not doing yardwork while out and about at this time would be considered fair game. It also said that while some would be provided, it was also 'bring your own'.
On the appointed day, there are plastic buckets scattered around in stragetic locations. So, how many of the people that are about to get involved in this fight will do so on purpose or by forgetting and wandering into the area? |

Ed's laying on a garden bench with his hands folded behind his head, looking up at the sky. Or at least, sometimes he is. Sometimes his eyes are shut and to all appearances, he's asleep. So. Who wants to see why he's out there? |

After Envy signs his lease and leaves, Edward starts calling around, warning people.
William goes to warn their family, knowing that Al is going to want to hit Edward for this, while Edward calls his homunculus alternate in the second building. |

One of the things Ed had not expected to deal with today was a panicking fire-lizard. He'd been at home reading when Tsuri burst into the air with a mental and vocal wail, and she was so confused and frightened that he could barely get anything out of her. But it was clear that whatever it was, it had something to do with Sarah.
Ed wasted no time in running over to his husband-in-law's apartment and banging on the door, one hand keeping Tsuri on his shoulder before she launched herself off in another terrified fit. |

When they PIN into existence at the edge of the grounds, Ed waits for Roy to get used to the change of location.
There are three buildings in line of sight, along with plenty of plants.

Sarah PINs into her younger husband's apartment, breathing a small sigh of relief to be out of that house. She wouldn't be completely relieved until the rest of her family was back, but...well, regardless of whether she was certain to be rescued one way or another, she is rather glad Dante didn't do more than just order her to a room. Most other possibilities were less than pleasant.
Stepping out into the hall, Tsuri firmly wrapped around her neck, she heads down to the other husband's door and knocks. "Ed, it's me!" |

Tsuri popped out of between onto the apartment grounds with a loud screech, veering straight towards the closest of the 'protector' Edwards while psychically pounding anyone even half-way empathic on the grounds with the psychic equivalent of an airhorn of panic and distress, and a mishmash of images of what just happened. |

| A new resident? |
[May. 4th, 2011|08:36 pm] |
Edward has visited a few times, mostly as an observer, something new to break up the monotony of his day.
After about a month, he's long-since heard of the apartments, and debated about moving from his comfortable home outside of Eichstandt to them. On one hand, that would mean he would have to give up his hermit ways to get a job and pay rent. Which did not appeal much to him. On the other, wasting away is not what Alfons would've wanted for him, and even more importantly, the longer he stays hidden in Germany, the higher the chance the National Socialists will find him.
Ultimately, it is this threat that makes him decide, quite rationally, to move to the Nexus. The first thing he did was secure a job. It wasn't bad work, it didn't pay very well, but what he'd heard about the apartments, it didn't have to pay terribly well to cover his expenses. It paid enough.
So he's knocking on the office door now, to secure his place to live. |

The Eds approach the grounds and try to slink towards the entrance of their building without notice.
Shall they be successful, or will they be humiliated? |

| Sparring Time ((Open Post)) |
[Feb. 12th, 2011|06:20 pm] |
Ed led Elise to the apartment grounds and headed over to the area he normally uses for working out and teaching Sarah.
"I normally do my sparring in this area," he tells her. "Let me know when you're ready to start."

[Sep. 18th, 2010|08:13 pm] |
Right after Envy's made his escape but before anyone inside has had a chance to do much of anything of importance like, oh say, letting anyone outside know he's bugged out, Ed gets home from work.
Needless to say, Greed gets his attention rather quickly, as he isn't a usual sight around the apartments. He wasn't expecting Sarah to be outside either, so he heads over to them. "Should I be afraid to ask what's going on?" |

Sarah PINs in directly from the question area to her apartment, taking several minutes to have a very quiet and very, very needed freak out. After about ten minutes she knocks on the door to her homunculus fiancee's apartment, finally calm enough to hopefully not make him freak out any more than he already will at this news.
Oh God oh God oh God whyyyyyyy. |
