[Well, better now than several weeks from now, he supposes.]

I'm very noticeably different from most, aren't I? If I asked you to quantify exactly how, would you be able to?

[sadisticwarfare]

[WHOA HANG ON HE'S NOT READY FOR THIS LINE OF QUESTIONING]

...Ah, that's...

[Alright, well, let him try...]

You are, yes. You're... It's your expressions, mostly. You're not very... emotive. That's not all that unusual, but it can be a bit odd for most people, I suppose.

[explosivecombat]

[...GOOD MORNING, ARCHER, SORRY ABOUT THAT.]

No, that's...not exactly it.

[Mnnngh.]

I was talking to Greed earlier, regarding the Homunculi and why they decided to allow me to assist them rather than killing me immediately.

It's not anything that's concerning me, exactly, it's just something I don't have an answer for and it's going to irritate me, that's all.

[sadisticwarfare]

...I'm not following you. Are you asking why the Homunculi chose to let you work with them?

[explosivecombat]

Well, it is a bit strange, given how in the dark literally everyone else was about what they were planning. Those that didn't remain that way were quickly disposed of.

[...he says, sounding perfectly placid about all of this.]

Go back to sleep, Archer.

[sadisticwarfare]

...No, if it's bothering you then I'll listen. I don't know if I can assist in any way.

[explosivecombat]

[Just...let him start idly playing with the traumacat for a moment; for what it's worth, traumacat doesn't seem to mind, though he seems a bit bewildered.]

It's not really anything that bothered me back in Amestris because my differences were more easily concealed there. Here, it's...noticeable, I suppose.

[sadisticwarfare]

You're not the only one. "Normal" here isn't something that most soldiers from Amestris would fit. It's not something most soldiers in general would fit because of how different this world is.

[explosivecombat]

Granted. Though there are some that are a bit worse off than others, obviously.

[...]

Isaac isn't exactly going to suit anyone's definition of normal, Amestrian or not.

[sadisticwarfare]

...That's very true...

[Isaac is pretty damn special, isn't he...]

The people that fit in here would never fit in back in Amestris. I don't believe you should be bothered by that part.
