[Someone just got dumped into the surf right in time to get hit in the face with an incoming wave or two. ...And almost knocked over by a third on the way out of the water. Naturally, this results in yelling.]

--Oh, come on! The fountain wasn't bad enough?!

[Due to someone's bad sense of humor, a certain midget alchemist escaped getting hit by this event. Though honestly, even if he had been, he'd still be too busy pouting at the moment to care.]

He's...really gone.

[If you're going by the clock, it's the middle of the night--though who could really tell with the sun shining all the time? In any case, there's a pint-sized alchemist not too far from the bookstore--just sitting out in front of the fountain--obviously working on figuring something out, going by the look of concentration on his face.]

...

[It's really kind of annoying trying to make sense of things when you have several large puzzle pieces, but not enough to fit them together correctly.]

[The worst thing about the portals to this place is that they sometimes end up in the damnedest places. Such as right above the fountain, thus making a certain alchemist promptly fall into it. Don't mind all the splashing commotion as he works on fixing that~]

O-ow damnit, it's gonna reopen at this rate. ...Wait, what the hell just happened?!
