[He's actually about to release his grip when the other's slackens, be his grip tightens again - catching Ed by surprise so he doesn't let go right off]

[It's then that he realizes he doesn't know where Al went. 'Safer' that was laughable, but he kept his expression serious - shrugging and trying not to be too thrown off by this Ed's total acceptance of what he just said]

Yeah, once I find him I'm taking him back to the inn where we're staying with some friends. Until we can get out of this place, anyway.

[After a moment he lets go of the fabric in his grip, hoping to be released in return, from the steel death grip]

*He frowns a little, but not out of any kind of disapproval. It's just... Staying with some friends. That must be nice.*

Right, well. *He lets go once he's released, taking a second to straighten his clothes out before looking the area over again* First things first, you gotta find him. You didn't see how far he could've gone?

[rolls over, falls on his Ed's head]

[Notices the frown but doesn't say anything, too busy glancing around himself, to find his brother]

No, I was too busy trying to-

[And Ed's scrambling to catch said falling tiny body so he doesn't hit the pavement, hissing in surprise] Al-

*blinks. Well, that was easy!* Oh good. Doesn't look like he's too badly hurt.

*leans closer a bit to get a look at him. That's funny. He doesn't seem like he's rotting...*

[curls up in the brother's arms, tail flicking emoly, and ignores the world]

[Sort of glares at the 'not too badly hurt' line, no thanks to him, but doesn't say anything.

Although he does kind of lean away protectively, holding Al more comfortably as he curled up now - quirking an eyebrow at the other Ed's curiosity]

What-? You look like you've never seen a cat before.

*doesn't notice the glare at first, too lost in his thoughts about how it was possible for the body to be perfectly fine despite the soul-body incompatibility problem. but he pulls back soon enough with a thoughtful sound, tapping a finger to his chin... and then his gaze snaps back up to the other Ed's face*

Hmm? Oh- *waves a hand dismissively* No, it's nothing. Forget it.

Looks like something to me.

[Not really going to press it any more than that because if this other Ed started asking questions he wasn't prepared to answer he'd have himself in a tough spot.]

*curious as he is, Ed recognizes a secret when he sees one. and given his own nature and the nature of all his doubles, he knows well enough not to push it. he raises both his hands up in a submissive sort of gesture, giving the other Ed a knowing look*

Really, it's nothing. *nods at the tired kitty in his arms* You should probably go back to where your friends are. Let him get some proper rest.

[The look caught him off guard, as he hadn't really had a chance to go around and see just how understanding of a situation like that the others could be. At the words he simply nods, smirking slightly]

Yeah, you're right. Thanks for uh- [not beating me to a pulp] ... Just- thanks.

*almost laughs at that as he turns to go, waving a hand in goodbye* Right. Don't mention it.

Just careful where he wanders off on his own. If my Al ever got a hold of him, he'd wanna keep him for himself.
