[Y E A H, if the roles had been swapped and she'd been getting to know Al for eight years instead of Envy? Things would definitely have gone differently.]
[As it is, Al is still a bit of an enigma in some ways. She's gotten to know a lot of his quirks, but... by no means all of them. Not even close.]
[If Ed had voiced some territorial sentiments, she honestly wouldn't have begrudged him them. It's... perfectly understandable. Coming to this world is enough of a shake-up all by itself. Coming to it and needing to catch up with family members who have been here years longer than you have is another thing entirely.]
[After all... that's what her father had gone through when the truth had finally come out about who she was.]
[It hadn't been easy for either of them.]
... I don't totally understand it either.
But I know that when my dad came here, I... worried about stupid stuff that probably should never have even crossed my mind. Even though... yeah, we were all each other had back home, too.
