[Roy had also found that there was a strange lack of responsibility in the Perimeter Guard compared to what he was used to back in Amestris, especially since he wasn't working overtime to solve the murder of his best friend as well as the conspiracy with the homunculi. At first, it left him restless, but he was able to quickly adapt to having more free time. He spent a lot of it out and about the city, getting to know the layout and getting more familiar with the culture.
While coffee shops were certainly something you could find in Central, the abundance of them in the quarantine almost seemed like overkill to the Colonel. While he was more inclined to visit bars, the coffee shops were much easier to find near the Perimeter Guard HQ, and they were open in the morning and early afternoon. He walks in one, getting himself a black coffee and taking a look around to find a seat. He spots a man about his age, bent over some device. Hadn't he seen him around HQ? If so, he might as well introduce himself. It would be advantageous to make as many allies as possible.]
