[Video/voice/action for anyone in the Violet Pokecenter, backdated to Saturday the 13th]
[The feed turns on to show Envy sitting in a bed in what appears to be a room at the Pokecenter. However, that is probably not what you're looking at, as the ex-homunculus looks sort of like he's been hit by a truck named Greed. One eye is completely swollen shut, and the other is blackened, he's got a bandage over a split lip, and there are a myriad of bruises everywhere. One wrist can be seen to be in a splint. Chimera the Larvitar is sleeping next to him, and an Ekans' head is also visible. He also looks extremely bored.]
[That boredom changes to panicked indignation when he notices the video is on.] WHAT? Goddamned machine I only wanted fucking--
[JOSTLE JOSTLE hands blankets, then it switches to audio only, where you can barely hear him muttering to himself, his voice sounding very pained.]
Owww...fucking weak human body...
[He speaks up again, sounding happier, as though he is trying to pretend that nobody saw that he was injured.]
Hey, anybody got anything interesting to talk about?
((ooc: Anybody who wants to comment/ask what the hell happened/make fun of him/pay him a visit is welcome :D))

In mine, it's a science based around transmuting matter into new forms. It's all got to follow equivalent exchange; you can't get something without giving something of equal value up in return. And it works on anything, so long as you've got the right sort of transmutation circle to focus the energy and the right skills. Even plants and animals.
Or humans. But that's forbidden by more than just laws.
Most people'll just use it to fix broken vases or buildings or things like that.

It seems that my world's version of alchemy is just about the same as yours except that, where I am from, it is impossible. My world has some magic, but not of that sort where it seems to have a balance between the sciences and the unexplainable.
Why is the creation of humans through alchemy forbidden?
[Action]
[He gives him a shrug.] The cost for a human life is more than anyone could possibly pay. Only way you might be able to do it is if you had the Philosopher's Stone. If you don't have that...you just get one of us. And trust me, we don't look nearly so good when we first show up.
[Action]
No one looks good when they're first brought into this world. At least, that is what experience has taught me. I do not know what form I had at birth; for me, as a Nation, I just suddenly was. There is no way to explain my existence or if I've even existed in the first place.
It is quite an interesting puzzle.
[Action]
[He leans forward to kiss him, a small, odd smirk on his face when he pulls back.] You exist well enough to me though.
[He glances down for a moment, not exactly used to having any sort of existential conversations with anybody but Lust, and it was generally her that did all the talking while he made snide comments. Time to retreat on this topic before he said anything else. His eyes landed on the ice cream tub.] That's melting.
[Action]
Oh. Well.
Umph?
[Action]
[Unfortunately, Envy was about to be introduced to the wonder that is brain freeze.]
Son of a bitch! [He brings his hand up to hold his head, forgetting for a moment that he is still holding the spoon in that hand. Have fun with that green ice cream spoonprint on your forehead, Envy.]
[Action]
Careful there.
That was cute.
[Action]
I'm not cute.
[Action]
[Action]
[That ice cream is still on his forehead, just sitting there being ridiculous.]
[Action]
Cute and silly. I like that.
[Action]
[And clearly the easiest way to do that is to put an arm around his shoulders and pull him closer to kiss him again, starting to deepen it already.]
[Action]
[Action]
[Then that hand goes underneath France's shirt and right up his back.]
[Action]
What was that for?
[Action]
Hmm, you can be pretty cute yourself~
[Action]
See if I share my precious ice cream with you again.
I do like being complimented, though, so... maybe I'll share with you.
[Action]
[He pulls him closer, smirking.]
For instance~ You have very lovely eyes.
[Action]
Really.
You have beautiful collarbones.
[Action]
[When he feels like it, Envy can definitely be flattering, although he's not going to win any prizes for poetry. And if it's working like that did, it goes extra. He'll have to remember this in the future. He looks a bit like a smug cat at the compliment France gives him.]
[Action]
How are you feeling now? Better than before?
[Action]
[He grins a little teasingly, but really he is feeling better. He'd been distracted from the physical pain for sure, and he was even feeling better about what Greed had said, about him going to drive everyone away. France at least didn't seem to be going anywhere for now.]
[Action]
You're warm.
I like sleeping with warm people.
[Action]
[Envy leaned back into the pillows so that he was almost entirely lying down, tugging France back with him. It was strange, having someone say they were glad he was feeling better and actually seeming to mean it. He ought to scoff and tease, but...it wasn't really a bad feeling. He could go with it for now.]
