[ roy likes the people from that universe, generally, quite a bit. he had heard that new people from shiro and keith's world had recently been introduced into the circle, but has been too busy dealing with . . . well, all of this, that he hasn't had much time to reconnect. but he makes a mental note to do so.
at the question, though, roy pauses. ]
I always assume people are listening to every word I say. [ maes knows why. ] But here, I don't know. The Witch can hear everything we say on this network at the Temple, so she says. But I don't know how far her powers stretch here. She's the one who operates the network; it's not a machine. I don't know if anyone here can listen.
[ but that being said: ]
But I always meet in person, for certain topics. Others, I don't care.
[It was about what he expected, and yet doesn't exactly reassure him. Then again, with a world so technologically advanced, Maes isn't sure of anything.]
This doesn't concern the Witch, so I'm not necessarily worried about her hearing it. It's more in regard to our current surroundings and our generous hosts. Would you care to discuss them over this or in person?
[Though he's not so certain about that either. They are literally surrounded by tech that he has no idea what it does and if it could be used to listen in...well he supposes they'd be compromised either way. Damn it all.]
The library, but it would probably be a good idea to stretch my legs. Normally I'd suggest a coffee break but this God forsaken place can't even be bothered to have THAT.
Yeah, but I haven't had to survive on worse in a really long time. A guy gets used to a certain level of comfort after awhile. You'd know that if you ever settled down.
[Because it always has to come back to that Roy. Always. Although, Roy could probably marry a girl who wasn't in the kitchen that often. He wasn't as picky about such things. But that doesn't lend itself to the conversation right now and would ruin Maes point.]
I think I know the place you're talking about. I'll see you there soon.
I don't starve to death just because I don't have a wife. I know how to feed myself.
[ -- sort of. it's called eating out, which roy didn't really do a lot of after scar came to town. and then after king bradley found out roy wanted him dead. it was mostly takeout after that. that riza or fuery or falman ordered because roy forgets to eat.
. . . okay maybe he can't take care of himself but THE POINT IS: ]

Give me half an hour and I'll leave to meet you. Where are you?

We'll meet halfway, then. There's something resembling a park, nearby. It lacks real grass, but it has some semblance of normalcy to it.
