What is this? [Mei pushed random buttons but eventually figures that it would be on] I never seen anything like this before…does Amestris even have technically like this?

But…we’re not in Amestris anymore…[There is a pause] Anyway, is anyone there? Where are we? And more importantly, has anyone seen a small panda named Xiao Mei around? If anyone has seen her, let her know that I want to see her now!

Then that means-!

[....Well...this is really awkward]

Um...I think you'll know me in the future.

May I ask your name?

[And she nods]

I am Mei Chang, it is nice to meet you....again. [Personally, she is just happy that she's alright! Even if...the setting is horrible]

[Mei Chang...that is not an Amestrian name. And neither does she look particularly Amestrian...]

It's good to meet you, too, Miss Chang. Forgive me if I'm wrong, but are you from Xing?

[dudeineedmycat.livejournal.com]

That's right, I am! Along with...the Yao clan.

[Video]

[followstheflame]

Yes, I am already acquainted with them.

Then...[Ahhh, she hates them so much and yet...

Have some mumbling coming from Mei's end!]

[Video]

[followstheflame]

...I'm sorry?

[Video]

[dudeineedmycat.livejournal.com]

Huh?

Oh, I'm the one who should be sorry! ...I really shouldn't be talking to myself like that especially in front of other people. It's rude.

[Video]

[followstheflame]

It's all right.

Has anyone else given you an explanation of this place?

[Video]

[dudeineedmycat.livejournal.com]

...I think I understand it but...where is Adstringendum? I know that it's a place where time is different but...

[Video]

[followstheflame]

It's...a completely new world. I'll send along an attachment that may make things a little easier for you to understand, at least better than I can explain it.

[And she sends a post to Mei.]

[Just have...stunned silence coming from Mei...]

[followstheflame]

[Riza waits, letting the girl take her time.]

[This is...like Mei's worst nightmare come true!]

[Video]

[followstheflame]

It isn't easy to take in. I apologize.

...

At least now I know what the Animus is...they're much less scarier now I know where they come from!

But I still have to at least try to stop them...

[Video]

[followstheflame]

I wouldn't suggest that, Miss Mei. There have been attempts to stop them before and people have died. It isn't a good idea, at all.

[Video]

[dudeineedmycat.livejournal.com]

But I still have to try something!

[followstheflame]

That may be the case, but don't do anything rash. It only ends badly.
