     He had been in the bathroom washing off his face as he was getting ready for the day. Alfons was probably already awake Edward assumed as he began to finish waking himself up. 

          what else was there left for him, if not studying?; searching, researching? he’d ever liked it as it was --- not studying for silly tests && exams, no, but studying for the sake of LEARNING more. Edward loved learning, and to be allowed presence in a literal new world with so much to know and so much to see --- it could have been a blessing, if it wasn’t inherently a curse. studying, yes, studying more and more till finding a way to go back home.

          nonetheless, he did not wish to have his good comrade just wither away on top of the little pile of books --- where would he be, if it wasn’t for the KINDNESS of Alfons Heiderich? this much, he did have in common with his own Alphonse. getting up carefully, as to not accidentally knock anything over, Ed stretched with a happy noise && walked over to the window --- golden orbs finding the silver glow of the moon above, and prying out of him a BITTERSWEET smile.

Another coughing fit; Noah could hear it even in another room. She had known about it before, before even Ed, but had never been sure how to bring it up until it had been revealed to the other. Footsteps led her towards the source, a small cloth in hand held out towards him. He who had taken her in alongside Ed despite her heritage, whose very PASSION had led him to the sickness. It was heartbreaking to say the least. In a world of war, it always seemed the brightest souls that were purged and he had almost DIED already. For a moment, Noah had feared he actually might that day.
