The light symphony of crickets played barely in the cold evening,
as the sleepy sun gave way to the awakening vast, shadowy blue.
The capricious wind carried the smoke while she exhaled, it was cool at the patio.
"What are you doing out here, old woman," Ed stepped and paused at the door.

Den lifted her head from the ground and wagged her tail as he approached.
Pinako just smiled at him and drew from her pipe.
This time she exhaled towards the sky.
"Have you gotten used to that arm, pipsqueak?"
"I'M NOT PIPSQUEAK ANYMORE!"
"Oh, so you admit you were pipsqueak?" a corner of her lip curled, as Pinako rested a hand on her hips.
Ed folded his arms and turned his cheek to the other side, "...Well, I had this arm with me to begin with."
"And I could do well with another pair of hands with the dishes, Mr. Elric!"
"Eh?"

Den got up and ran towards Winry.
Her blonde hair was tied back to a tail before removing her apron.
She sat down between them and kicked up her legs a little.
"But it's all done now," She smiled.

As the family gathered, a young night arrived with the stars in tow.
