For not being able to keep our tryst this past Friday, I sincerely apologize Herr Henry, I was really looking forward to such a rare opportunity.

Unfortunately, recent events prevented me from contacting you, namely, I was too hideous and short to set eyes on you.

I hope I can make it up to you.

Only because you chose to as some kinda bullshit charity publicity stunt. You weren't forced to live that way due to circumstance. You only did it because you knew you could go back to your cushy home anytime you wanted. It's not the same thing. At all.

Yeah, you do. He thinks you're kinda like a girl, so you get some of that preferential treatment because of that.

...How about this? I stop talking about your relationship with Greed, and you stop talking about my relationship with Lavi. Deal?

How am I supposed to help or serve anyone to the extent that they deserve and need if I don't know anything about it. Even if I have a comfortable life to return to it's primarily about serving others and not just worrying about myself.

It's not exceptional, he's just confused.

That's fair.

You just donate the money to the organization, that's all. That's how most rich people do it. And in any case, there's no such thing as a truly charitable act. You "serve" others because it makes you feel better about yourself, and it makes you look good and admirable in the eyes of others. It's an image thing.

He doesn't handle gender confusion very well. And he's a liar, claiming he likes men, when you're the only man he's ever fucked, I'm sure. That makes you even more special!

If it was just an image thing then donating money would be more than enough to sustain my image. I wouldn't have to work so hard if it was just about the monetary aspect of contribution, but putting yourself into the situation is about something more.

I can't prove anything other than he gets a little antsy during sex and he doesn't like being topped.

It's still an image thing. You're a performer, right? So, you gotta make it big and flashy, where everyone can see it. You gotta be at the center of the crowd, something you can only get by puttin' yourself in the thick of it. That's why just donating the money isn't enough for you. You wanna see the looks on those people's faces when they're fawning all over you, eternally grateful for your "charity".

Like I said, he's too rigid about gender roles. He's got these set ideas about what it means to "be a man" and what it means to "be a woman". That's why he treats women different from men. It's all part of that chivalrous code of his or something. He can't stand the thought of being feminized, because he sees it as "weak," but what he doesn't know is that women can wield a lot of power... They just use it in a way different from men, that's all~♥

Those are the words of a creature who has never truly done something for the better of society. First of all, people who are starving or dying aren't exactly going to be fawning over anyone, celebrity and fame means absolutely nothing to people in third world countries who barely have enough to get by.

Like I said, I can't prove anything and it's not like it's that big of a deal, a little irritating certainly.

Why should I try to better a society that has always rejected me and my kind? There's a reason we Homunculi operate from the shadows, you know? There's no way that we can exist side by side with human beings. We're the next step in evolution. That's why we consume human souls. It's all about survival. Nothing more, nothing less.

You look down on humans, consume their souls, and then pretend that you're the victims because society rejects you?

You wanna know what alchemy's greatest taboo is? Creating human life. People have long believed that the creation of life is God's providence alone. They call Homunculi monsters because we were born through alchemy, instead of the union between a man and a woman. We may look human enough on the outside... but that's as far as the similarities go.

It was a human who created the first Homunculus. And it was humans who kept him captive and made him a slave because they desired forbidden knowledge! We were the ones who were victimized first! Why shouldn't I give humans a taste of their own medicine?

Because 3 + 2 does not equal 4. Even though human's victimized you, they are still the reason you exist so perhaps you should see where you are lucky. Also you can't generalize humans, blaming the whole of humanity for the crimes of some is wrong. You want to be better, then be better, because it's what you do as opposed to what you are in the end. Right now I can't see how you're any better than the human's who victimized you. You claim to be an evolution when your actions are as archaic as a neanderthals.

Forgiveness is more divine.

Fuck forgiveness! I'll never forgive the bastards who took everything away from me! And no one in their right mind would possibly forgive me for everything I've done while I was a Homunculus, and I don't care. I don't regret my actions one bit.
