I've got some interest if there's room!

The sympathetic looks the others chanced his way didn't help. If anything, it made him feel worse. Pity just wasn't Alexander's thing, and in the wake of being told this brief happiness was just that, it was absolutely unwelcome. It hardly helped that the explanation, while complete, didn't make much sense to him. Who in their right mind would start a war over someone eating food? Was it even possible to be that petty? If he ever met whoever was that dead set on the matter he'd love to give them a piece of his mind and boot up their-

"Xander, it's fine," Wash said with a slap on the taller boy's back, "It's not like I'm dying here. I'll find my own way home."

"Yeah, but..."

"No buts. You came here to do something, right? Let's go."

"Yeah," Alexander said glumly, "I guess you're right."

"Hey," Wash said, "We can't stay gone forever. The wind always calls..."

Alexander smiled a little. "You just need to listen for it."

And with that they began to catch up to the others.

I would be interested, if there's space available (I know 6 doesn't always count as a "small" group)

Not really anything like a concrete posting order, I just noticed Briza's like on my post and figured having her character get in before either you or Vox cuts to another location would make things less confusing is all.

Lucia was still rubbing sleep from her eyes as the briefing was relayed. Emergency calls in the early morning were the sort of thing you always prepared for but hoped would never come, but here they were. In the middle of a storm no less. And, to make things even stranger, it seemed there was part of the mission that only Subaru was permitted to handle. Well, Lucia thought to herself, that was a concern that could wait; there were Invaders that needed to die, and people that needed to be saved. Anything and everything else was secondary.

The side door opened as the aircraft began to hover over the only clear landing platform. The other Strikers were already leaping down, and it wouldn't do for her to fall behind. So, as Maltet hummed to life, Lucia took the jump at a run, leaping straight into the howling wind and the chilling rain. She fanned her legs and arms out, directing her armor to emit quick bursts from her gauntlets and boots as she fell. Each burst both slowed her descent and reacted to the storm trying to push her about, keeping her steadied and on target to land properly. Her feet touched the metal of the landing pad with a thud, but thanks to her vigilance Lucia was none the worse for wear. Her sword ignited as she walked forward, both to make room for the others coming down and to secure a perimeter, and her eyes swept side to side looking for any sign of a welcoming party.

"Zut, but it's dark tonight," she said, "Stay alert! And can a Linker get a read on motion or noise from inside so we know where to go first?"

Oh, @Briza since you're around, if you want to take 1st post and have Genevieve come semi-rushing into the training room having been told to come find Brig Gen Remington, she'll go ahead and put you with the other two on this case. Solves that little kerfuffle.

The Training Room

"Ah, good, you're both here," came a voice as the two recruits broke apart from the last of multiple exchanges. Brigadier General Remington strolled into the room, a pair of folders tucked under her arm. "Quite the sharp back and forth, by the by. If you both have taken a liking to it, I advise you treasure a consistent sparring partner."

"Ah, but where are my manners? Brigadier General Amelia Remington, at your service. One of your Commanding Officers in AMSIF," she continued as she snapped quickly to a salute with enough practice behind it to be impeccable. "It's a pleasure to meet you both directly, and a greater joy still to present you both with your inaugural case. You'll be working together on it, and while it's nothing particularly glamorous or high profile it still needs to be taken care of. Here you are."

After returning to a resting stance, Amelia pulled the two folders out from under her arm and handed one each to Amelie and Olivia. "I've been asked to monitor the progress, as well as intervene if necessary. Not that we expect anything life threatening or over your head to occur, but purely as a precaution. Do note that I will be doing so from afar; I won't be assisting unless I absolutely have to."

The case in question was of a series of gold forgeries in the capitol over the past half month, created via alchemy and starting to spread throughout the city. The file featured a dizzying amount of data, most of which was extraneous- doubtlessly a byproduct of the Department of the Treasury's investigation prior to learning of alchemy's involvement and subsequently handing it over to AMSIF. Three key points managed to stand out, however.

1- Of the businesses the fraudulent gold had been traced to, none of the owners or employees were capable of alchemy.

2- Three businesses in particular saw the majority of the fraudulent gold; a clothing boutique that had surged in popularity and traffic, a high-class jewelry Store that saw few customers, and a butcher's shop that had a moderate consumer base.

3- The fraudulent gold was a relatively small amount, only enough to purchase everyday essentials and a few luxurious expenditures for the time frame, but little more.

"Any questions, Majors? Then you may begin."

Investigation Start!

OOC Information
Your first case is at hand! Someone is alchemizing gold, and that's a big no-no. Your job is to figure out who it is, find them, and apprehend them. Work with what you have, pick a course of action either together or as a team, carry it out and we'll go from there. Skipping to the location you'd like to investigate during your post is both acceptable and encouraged.

For the sake of simplicity, the assumption is that while it is uncommon and a little unusual, gold is accepted and legal tender in Amestris.

Okay, it seems like everybody else who was making a character has withdrawn. So, we'll just move forward with present company. I'll get cracking on an update within the next day or two.

"He can't?" Alexander asked Sumi when she said Wash couldn't leave- which of course meant he could not go back with them. It was disheartening, to an extent; here he'd finally found some semblance of home, and it wasn't to last. Granted, it had been a slim hope, but he'd harbored it anyway "Any particular reason why not?"

"Xander it's not a big deal..." Wash said.

"I still want to know."
