[What the hell.
Ed heard Lucky before he had a chance of seeing him, and he was certainly not prepared for the sight. He did, however, have the advantage of being used to weird shit and his weird animal is on fire so that kind of trumps dog with horns and sunglasses.
As long as it doesn't talk. It doesn't talk, right?
For a split second Ed visibly flinches at the horse-sized dog barking at him, but it doesn't take a genius to figure out a dog sitting in front of you barking probably wants food, or to go out- and they were already outside.]
I get it, you saw me throwing something to-
[You know what? Details. He'll worry about those later.
For now he starts rummaging through the pack again - producing the first thing that looks like pokemon food according to what information he had already absorbed, tossing it the short distance between them as he had for the ponyta a moment ago.]
I bet you're just hungry, right?
no subject
[Lucky hops right up to his feet when he sees Ed go for the backpack, tail wagging even more furiously and with a big doggy grin on his face, tongue lolling. For such a demonic looking thing, he sure does seem friendly.]
[The food gets horfed down immediately; he's not starving or even really too hungry, but oh man does he love treats.]
[He takes a few more steps forward, leaning his neck out towards Ed to sniff. Ed's made one new friend!]
[Of course, it doesn't last forever. Ed's only warning is the call of a very familiar voice, sounding a little frustrated but distinctly less menacing than usual.]
Lucky? Luckyyyy! Come on, you can't spend all day chasing Rattata or we're gonna miss the--
[And then who should come around the corner but...Envy. Alive and decidedly not a giant dragon. And wearing sensible hiking pants and boots, even if his shirt is tied in such a way that his midriff is bared anyway because goddamn Envy has an aesthetic and he can only be so sensibly dressed at once okay.]
[Lucky lets out a delighted bark, distracted from Ed as he bounds on back over to his trainer. He got a treat!! He's such a good boy! Nevermind that he ran off! Envy is standing stock still for the moment and looking honest to god caught off guard, because he's seen Ed too and he sure wasn't expecting that to happen today.]
Oh, and what are you doing here?
[He may have had to scramble a little to get the proper levels of sneer on his face he wasn't prepared at all.]
no subject
Certainly not when Envy's around. Edward glances up when he notices someone approaching, but this time his brain nearly short circuits at the sight. In a similar fashion Ed's expression changes from shock to something a little more hostile.
Envy was here, and since Envy was here - and clearly, alive, himself and apparently well.... change of attire, aside - that told Ed one thing. He was going to have zero scope of reference for Ed's expectations of him. You know, as a dead dragon in Germany.
Ed decidedly keeps his scowl in place, remaining sitting on the grass as if to convey that the homunculus wasn't enough of a threat for him to even move.]
I could ask you the same thing!
[Because Envy was supposed to be dead. Very dead and transmuted, the same as Wrath. His entire reality was being flipped on itself in this place. Ed did not like being thrown for a loop, but he really didn't care what Envy was doing here. He was far more concerned with what the hell he was doing here, and why. He still had yet to get a satisfactory answer to that question.]
no subject
[It's then that an idea occurs to him. An incredibly mean and spiteful idea, one that will probably get him into trouble later but honestly is worth it. He flips his hair, just a little, and puts one hand loosely on his hip. It's posturing, the same as Ed sitting on the grass.]
Although why I'm here in this town? Well, I've to catch a boat. See, your brother's on it, did you know he's here too?
[...technically this is true. Al IS probably waiting on the ferry to Kanto already because he gets places on time, and Envy DOES have to catch it because they're traveling together with Heather and wouldn't be in any danger of anything except maybe Envy taking the best flavor of trailmix. But Ed doesn't know that.]
So I'd better get going if I want to catch up.
no subject
Whatever else Envy is saying is totally disregarded, because Ed is much more focused on one tiny itsy bitsy little detail. Al. He was certain Al would have been left behind in Germany, the same as he was left behind in Amestris when Ed disappeared the first time. This little tidbit of information - if it was true, don't get ahead of yourself, Edward - could literally change everything.]
Al's here?! If that's true than I'm coming with you.
[And sure, you can try to stop him, but he takes literally zero issue in just following and trying not to get caught if you're going to be difficult about it, Envy.
Unless you want to attack him over it, but wouldn't that take up time you don't have if you're already running late to catch this thing? Ed doesn't exactly have much else going on, and you can trust he's ready for that to be the option the homunculus picks.]
no subject
What, you aren't even a little worried that I just said I was chasing after your brother?
[IS IT THE PANTS? IT'S THE PANTS, ISN'T IT. THEY'RE NOT EDGY ENOUGH.]
no subject
Yeah, I heard what you said. Al's here and you're going that way. Which means my best chance of finding him is to go with you.
[Ed logic, Envy. If he comes along it'll be two against one. Completely sticking to his nonchalant, you homunculi being here don't bother me in the slightest facade, not that it's very hard to maintain when blasted with a severe case of tunnel vision.]
So. How much time do you have to catch this boat before you miss it?
[Either way, as Ed sees it - he wins. They get to the boat before it departs and he can find Al. Or they don't, which means Envy doesn't, and Al's safe from whatever he's planning.]
no subject
[He's already broken his deal to Heather once, and he's not about to again. Even if the deal had been about Alphonse and not Ed, he's pretty sure it would wind up being the same thing in the end. Attacking one of the two means fighting both.]
[And he really gets the feeling that she'd be disappointed in him as well as angry, which is even WORSE.]
[So while his lip curls and his teeth grit, he doesn't make any move to attack. At his side, Lucky senses that tension and whines, nudging and whuffling directly into Envy's ear--although notably, instead of responding to that with a kick or a shove, he puts a hand up and simply pushes the offending dog nose away from his ear with a normal amount of force, following it up with an absent scratch to the big dog's head. All his attention is still very much focused on Ed.]
So you're assuming I'm just going to let you skip along merrily next to me with no problem. What the hell's the last thing you remember?
/slams down last minute tags before commute
The surprise comes when Envy - somewhat gently - pushes Lucky away. Sure it was a move of irritation, but it was .... decidedly not Envy like. The ponyta watching from the grass behind Ed doesn't seem too concerned with the whole ordeal. Edward's been acting like this with almost everyone since they met.]
Of course not-
[Tone dripping with duh, idiot. I expect you to be a royal pain in the ass about it, just like everything else is with you, but he cuts himself off when he realizes Envy is still talking.
Do you really want to go down that rabbit hole, Envy? Do you? Because he's pretty certain if you're standing in front of him acting oblivious to any of that shared history he's going to have to assume you don't know.
And let me tell you, the last thing he remembers about you is one fever dream you're lucky to be missing.]
The last thing I remember..... [Wheels turning, why the hell does Envy care about the last thing he remembers, anyway? Although Envy wouldn't know about the war between worlds, or any of the last things he remembers before coming here. That's fine, though- he's pretty sure all of this is going to be absolute gibberish to the homunculus anyway. Better to stick with what he wants to know, which is probably about him.]
They used you to open a portal back to our world. Transmuted our father right along with you, and you both died.
That's why I want to know where we are and what the hell I'm doing here with you.
[Shh, nobody tell him if this is some form of death Envy just implied that Al's dead too with his little speech there.]
