Getting on the Evil Train, Take 2! [ CLOSED ]

Character(s): Al, Dias, and Yuna
Content: They actually get on the train this time!
Setting: Train Station
Time: Wednesday, mid-morning
Warnings: None so far.


Well, it certainly had taken them some time to convince Dias that the train, as Alphonse referred to the machina transport, was not an evil beast that needed to be slain rather than boarded. After several days of time staying at one of the hotels near the Niflheim gate, Yuna, Alphonse, and Dias stood on the platform eagerly (or nervously in some cases) awaiting the train that would finally take them deeper into the strange, city of Paixao.

In truth, the days spent with her new companions had not been a waste at all as far as Yuna was concerned. They'd chatted with one another about their homelands and just generally had a chance to get to know each other a little better. Dias wasn't terribly talkative, but Yuna had to admit she'd kept a few secrets herself. It was still refreshing to learn more about the two men, and she was honestly thankful that she'd been placed with two, capable, pleasant companions. It could've been worse. Much, much worse.

"I think I hear it coming," Yuna announced, the telltale whistle that they'd heard before sounding in the distance again. She turned her gaze to Dias briefly, gauging his reaction this time.

"I don't know..."

Al had never had a need for his own money before, and wasn't quite certain as to how he could go about making it. His neighbors farmed, Izumi-sensei sold meat, and the Rockbells made automail; but he had neither the supplies nor the talent for any of that. He didn't even arrive here with anything other than the clothes on his back. "Our neighbors sometimes give Brother and me snacks when we fix things for them, but would that be any good?" he offered weakly after a moment of consideration.

"I'm sure we'll be okay though! People will be nice enough to help us out even if we don't have a way to pay them back right now. We've only just arrived, so they must understand," Al innocently added with a confident smile.

[ooc; As a note from someone who hates random Japanese in English writing, I'm using Izumi-sensei because it was kept the English version. So I'm taking it as valid. Besides, nothing else sounds right.]
