Studying, sort of. (Open)
Tobi sat in the library surrounded by books and papers. He sighed. He was working on becoming better at basic alchemy, but he was getting nowhere and his mind was beginning to wander. He wondered why it was so hard for him to stay on track when it came to work. Then he wondered where he would go for lunch when this was done. Shaking his head, he realized he was off track again. He turned back to the papers and looked over them, sighing again. Work was so boring.

Tobi cleared his mind of all other thoughts.I need to get back to work... He sighed and started flipping through pages. The book landed on a random page and he began reading. The Philosopher's Stone is a powerful alchemical booster that is said can even bring a human life back to life. Interesting.... He thought of what he could do with something like that. Continuing on, he read, Nearly a hundred years ago, a Philosopher's stone was said to have been made by the Fullmetal Alchemist, Edward Elric. Proof of this stone actually existing has not been found. It is unknown what Elric was said to have done with the Stone, or if he used it at all. Tobi closed the book and wrinkled his forehead. It could still be out there.... He shook his head. "No," He said out loud. "Jeez, I need a break." He stood up and stretched.

Kiri yawned and stretched, maybe a little louder than intended, because she got a loud, "SHHH!" from the librarian. She blushed and smiled sheepishly, then looked around. I must have fallen asleep in the library... Again.. Rubbing the back of her head sleepily, she browsed. How long had she been here? An hour... two? She squinted for anything familiar. Where was the clock.. "Ugh.. I'm still sleepy." She said, earning another, "SHHHH!" from the librarian. "Alright I'm sorry!" Kiri whispered loud enough for him to hear.

Tobi glanced over at a girl who was getting shushed. He recognized her. "Major Hawkeye?" He asked, walking over to her.

Kiri blinked sleepily and looked over, "Uhnn? Oh hey Colonel Mustang, what're you doing here?"

Tobi glanced back at the books and papers scattered on the floor. "Boring research," He said with a chuckle. "How 'bout you?"

Kiri grinned mishcheiviously, "Sleeping and avoiding paperwork." She laughed, "The soft seats are really comfortable!"

Tobi grinned. "Sounds like something on my daily schedule!" He nodded at the chair comment. "Say, Major," He said in a low tone, "Have you ever heard of the Philosophers Stone?"

Kiri rubbed the back of her head and shifted nervously, running a hand over the necklace dangling from her collar. "A little, yeah.. A strange subject.. isn't it? I've only heard stories from my grandmother and a few pictureless books."

Re: Studying, sort of. (Open)
Tobi nodded. "When I was a little kid, my great-grandad talked about it a lot. I don't remember much of what he said, though, since we stopped visiting him when I was about two.... I've heard stories, though. I heard," His voice dropped to scarcely a whisper, "I've heard that it has so much power, someone can successfully perform a human transmutation with it."

Kiri shivered and shook her head, "That's kind of creepy." People shouldn't be brought back to life... don't they watch the zombie movies?! Dead people only want to eat brains. Kiri was again off in her fantasy land.

Tobi wrinkled his forehead. "Maybe," He said, "But not if it worked properly."

Kiri tilted her head and focused, making her thoughts more serious, "Hm.. I guess there could be some interesting affects.."

Re: Studying, sort of. (Open)
Kiri couldn't help but grin at his cockiness, "So.. why the sudden interest in a mythological stone?" She fingered her treasured necklace curiously. She didn't know a whole lot about Tobi. But she knew enough to know he had some sort of plan.

"Oh," Tobi said, looking away, "Y'know just came across it in my studies and found it sort of interesting."

Kiri frowned and tilted her head, "What's wrong.. you look.. thoughtful.. did I say something bad?"

Re: Studying, sort of. (Open)
"Ah, no," Tobi said, shaking his head, "I was just thinking."

Re: Studying, sort of. (Open)
Kiri nodded, slowly, "Alright then." She shifted from her positionand offered him a book. "Uhmm.. so..." She looked around. What was there to talk about?

Tobi smiled. "So?" He said playfully. "How long have you been in the military?"

Re: Studying, sort of. (Open)
Kiri smiled, "A long time." She replied with a blunt tone. She was teasing him, but that was her style. "You?"

Tobi grinned. "A while," He said with a chuckle. "Haven't gotten any paperwork done yet."

Hiram sat quietly in the back of the library, deeply enthralled in a book devoted to propellants. He was busy writing down notes and chemical formulas when he became aware of the other two officers in the room. “The young man must be the Whiteice alchemist, I recognize him from his picture, and the young lady must be a friend of his” Hiram thought to himself, Hiram caught the glimmer of silver watch chain form the young lady. “She is a state alchemist to? Well I guess I should go and introduce myself” Hiram mumbled to himself.
He got up and walked over to the table where Tobi and Kiri were sitting and to no one in particular, “Hello I couldn’t help but notice you two are alchemists and I thought it might be good to introduce myself to you, my name is Hiram Nakamora, or as I am now known to the state the percussion alchemist!”

Kiri shook her head and tsked, "From what grandmother said, it seems you are too much like Roy, might I say." Her mouth sported a bright smile as she chuckled, her attention turning to Hiram, "Oh.. Hello I am Kiri Hawkeye, pleasure to meet you. This stunning and over-egotistical man to my left is Colonel Tobi Mustang." She laughed and stuck out hr tongue at Tobi.

Tobi chuckled. "I'll take that as a compliment," He said with a grin. Hearing someone else behind him, he turned around to see a boy standing there. He listened to the boy introduce himself and smiled. "Hi, I'm Colonel Tobi Mustang, the Whiteice Alchemist."
