Who knew that this body would be so difficult? Being tall is more work than it's cut out for.

Have you ever had a day where you don't quite feel like yourself? I think I'm having one today.

[ooc: Here is the explanation for this shenanigan. Strikes gone!]

Something wasn't right, but Ed couldn't quite pinpoint what it was. Susan, of course, had also picked up on it, but they had both assumed that Peter was in a mood or something of the sort.

But it wasn't like Peter to switch in between like this.

So here's a knock on your door, Lan you body thief Peter. And here's a brother looking to find out exactly what's going on.

And Lan knew, of course, that it couldn't last. Moving between air to air had exhausted him the night before, but he had enough energy to run, at least, if that's what it came to.

He stood from the made bed (Peter seemed the type to be ridiculously fastidious about those things) and opened the door.

"Ed?"

He's watching you, Pete. Really. But Ed knows when and when not to be obvious about it, and this is not one of those times.

But here, have one of the Pevensie brother's customary unspoken conversations. Have a glance that clearly reads: you're not alright and don't you deny it.

Because as irritating as it was to have someone call you on it (and Ed knows, better than anyone), it helped to not be alone, even if you didn't actually talk.

Ri used that face a lot. Mostly because, at the end of Lan's life, everything was a secret, and Ri knew it. It's hard to keep things from a brother - Lan knows that firsthand.

He replies, almost with instinct, with a look that says: I'm not going to discuss it before he remembers that it's not Ri. It's not like Edmund looks like him, but the point remains anyway.

Peter's body moves away from the door to let Edmund in anyway, even if he doesn't offer any words to the shorter (my god, he really was tall) boy.

Ed steps inside with another glance around, his face not a feeling of something creeping up on him or that something wasn't right here. Still, this was only speculation.

Best blow this wide open.

Lan never does let go of the wind. There's that odd sense of something about him all the time, like something's about to go off. One of his teachers used to say that made him impossible, and Ri couldn't sleep without it.

There was a tinge of guilt. Was there something that Edmund couldn't do without his brother? This wasn't the time to care. He mentally shook it off. Twins were different, he reassured himself. And Ri...Ri had survived.

"Nothing's happened."

Typical. But it's alright, because Ed does it too- ofttimes kings have more pride than they have sense or anything else.

"Right." another glance at Peter.

You're lying.

They've danced this one before, around and around the true nature of the problem, and it's a familiar feeling.

But Ed gets the sense that this isn't just about Father.

"All right then."

Could it be that would be it?

Of course not. He felt something was wrong, and something was. It didn't help that Lan was starting to feel the beginning of a headache. No wonder Peter frowned so much. If this was what he dealt with every day?
