Well, this was an issue, wasn't it? Name Bucky now, and watch him face the consequences quite soon, or make herself seem less suspicious by only providing a description?
She chose option two. Less suspicion on her meant it was more likely this would work.
"I don't know who it was. H-he looked weird though. He had a metal leg, and chestnut and cream fur. That's all I saw before I saw Roy." Her next words held the innocence of a child, as she met Riza's hard gaze with pale blue optics, not even flinching at it. "I was hoping I could stop the bleeding, so I stayed instead of chasing him. I'm sorry, miss." The gaze that asked whether she had made the wrong choice, the same one often seen, and genuine, when she was unsure why she was told it wasn't okay to hurt others, and asked.
The young Fireball was at fault for this, yes. There was no denying in her mind that Roy's death was her fault, even though she didn't view it as a bad thing. She just had never been taught right from wrong, and now, the people around her, the people who accepted her words as the truth, and had protected her and worried for her, were paying the price.
Not that she was aware. As long as it meant her goals were met, the world could burn, for all she cared.
