005. [Video]
[For what is possibly the FIRST TIME since this kid figured out how to hit the 'post' button, the video is actually STILL.]
[That's because he's set it down on a fence post. The pale, mystical feathers that have been coating every surface like magical dandelion fluff are drifting past on the breeze, but they're not the focus of the video. Instead, the 'Gear's camera seems to be pointed directly into someone's yard, although it's from a little bit of a distance.]
[The place is kind of a dump, with junk littering the corners and lots of weeds. A ramshackle doghouse is erected in the middle, with an upturned waterbowl that doesn't appear to have been filled in some time.]
[A coil of old, frayed rope is tied around one of the boards of the 'house' and at the end of it is a snoozing blue Vaporeon, ear-fins twitching lightly.]
[The view isn't especially zoomed in, but it's still obvious what the Pokemon is.]
[For a time, that's all the video shows.]
[But then Wrath speaks, his voice hushed.]
... I saw the man in that house come home and he didn't even PET her.
Or give her any food.
She looks sad.
[Half an hour later...]
[Now the feed shows HIM, and there's part of a rotten board stuck in his hair. And rope twines in his teeth. And he is cradling something blue that kind of overflows out of his arms in a pile of contented paws and fins.]
This is Sleepy.
She's blue and I love her.

[He scoffs, instantly assuming the wicked, snotty persona he virtually only employs when he's talking to an Elric.]
Get caught for WHAT?
I didn't do anything.
I FOUND her and she followed me.
[Which totally explains the visible strands of torn rope IN HIS TEETH wrath what the hell did you CHEW THROUGH THE ROPE?]
[private video]
There's still bits of rope in your teeth, Wrath. I agree with what you did, I just want you to be careful.
[private video]
Is there?
[Distractedly, he starts to straight-up pick at his teeth right there in front of the camera. No shame at all.]
[private video]
Just a bit. You didn't feel them in there?
[private video]
Ah-uh.
[That's what 'nuh uh' sounds like when you've got your fingers jammed into your mouth trying to dig stringy twine from your gums.]
[private video]
[private video]
Why do YOU care, anyway?
[private video]
[private video]
[It seems like a stupidly long time to keep up such a ridiculous lie. Why doesn't he just give up already?]
[Wrath glowers at Al for a long moment. Even for him, it's difficult to remain vicious in the face of such steadfast and persistent benevolence.]
... Well, don't.
I don't worry about you.
[private video]
[He isn't bitter or upset, there's no point. Wrath's attitude is absolutely understandable given their history; the onus to prove himself is on Alphonse, he knew that from the start.]
[private video]
'Cuz sometimes I think you don't remember!
[WHY IS HE NOT UPSET?! WRATH WANTS HIM TO BE UPSET. WRATH WANTS HIM TO CRY STUPID HUMAN BABY TEARS. >8(]
[private video]
Hehe, it must seem like that a lot, huh? But I don't forget, and I know you have every right to hate me.
[private video]
... I liked you better when you were in that stupid armor, trying to kill me.
[private video]
[private video]
Metal doesn't tell lies.
[Or maybe you just don't want to accept that he's telling the truth, Wrath!]
Re: [private video]
I haven't been lying. What have I done since being here to ever intentionally try to hurt you?
[private video]
[The answer on his lips is that Alphonse must be trying to lull him into a false sense of security, so that he might strike when the Homunculus least expects it.]
[But that makes no sense in this place, where Wrath has his powers and near-invincibility stripped away from him. If there was ever a time to pick a straightforward fight with Wrath, it's now.]
[AND THEN IT COMES TO HIM.]
You're just too scared to fight me now that you have a body.
Now that you can hurt.
You don't wanna lose that body again!
You KNOW I'd destroy it!
[private video]
[Child.]
[Alphonse levels him an incredibly unimpressed look across the screen. Really.]
Yes, that's exactly why I'd nearly gotten into a fist-fight with Envy five times while I was still in Goldenrod.
[private video]
You almost fought with Envy?
Why didn't you ACTUALLY fight with Envy?
[WRATH LIKES THE IDEA OF TWO PEOPLE HE'S REALLY MAD AT PUNCHING EACH OTHER.]
[private video]
[Total deadpan. He can't make this shit up.]
[private video]
Both of you can fight chimeras.
You should fight the owl and then fight each other.
[HE'S SO UNIMPRESSED, AL. SO UNIMPRESSED.]
[private video]
[private video]
[Okay first of all Wrath, no she absolutely wouldn't, and second of all, WAY TO MISS THE POINT.]
[private video]
Then pretend she tried to stop a fight between two other people, and one of those people hurt her just because she got in the way. You would be upset, wouldn't you?
[private video]
I'd rip their heads off and scatter their pieces all around the town. And stomp on them.
