Sunglasses like Scars were suddenly becoming a better idea if it would help with all the snow glare. Al was bundled up just as much, with gloves for good measure, and cutting a path through the snow so it would be easier on Ed's automail to follow.

"We were busy with a lot of things," Al reminded him, cheerfully enough. "Getting ready for winter and all. But finding a place is important too. Maybe by spring we'll be ready to move in."

"Are we digging the cellar separate?" He'd never say he was grateful for Al cutting the path first. As it was he was going to need to strip and put hot packs on the ports once they got home. At the very least it was a blessing he still had the northern automail installed. "Ground's going to be too hard to start digging now."

"It would be hard to dig the cellar after we build the house, but that depends on how we want to do it. It's definitely too hard to dig now, but do we want to wait?"

He tilted his head. He knew full well that Ed wouldn't say anything -- but Al was sure he'd be complaining about Al taking the lead the whole time if he didn't need it.

"Waiting might be a good idea." He didn't want to rush this. With all the chaos that happened in Adstring around them, he didn't want to make a house building just as chaotic. This was something that was special just between him and Al. It would be theirs no matter who lived in that place. It was one of the few things that kept Ed going, these days, and for once, he was going to be pretty selfish about it.

"I had trouble with the water filter system in the early spring when I started that. And while we do the cellar, we can do an underground filter of sorts, then."
