jeredu:

Jade and Peony are at a bar, looking for… someone.

If I were that someone, I might start running. Jade looking all considering and amused is generally never a good thing.

Perhaps he’s concocting elaborate revenge for that one time many years ago when Roy Mustang used a corny pick-up line because he mistook Jade for a woman.

Now, I wanna point out a few things: Jade on his own is bad enough, but Jade and Peony together are some kind of unholy combination and it doesn’t help that Peony delights in watching Jade do his worst.  

His Jade.  I think Peony might take a bit of pride in Jade’s terribleness tbh.

(If you’re wondering where the brace went, Jade has another one which is slimmer, less comfortable, and less durable, but it does fit under trousers. He just wouldn’t trust it to hold together under stress. It is reserved for social functions, generally. The metal bits are coated matte black so that there’s no eye-attracting metal glint visible below the pant cuff against his shoes.)
