Pride, during the night, didn't really sleep. He closed his eyes, sure, and his breaths were always low and almost invisible, but he listened and watched when his eyes were open.

Edward liked to starfish, he'd found out, hit in the head with a flesh limb. Since then, he'd lain closer, so he wouldn't get poked by the bony parts of Ed's wrist and elbow. But he only ever watched and listened, a questioning look on his usually blank face.

The other blonde liked to sleep a lot, when the streets got dark like Home and fewer people were out. But it was getting light outside; Pride could see over Ed's shoulder the way the sun lanced through the thin curtains over the window that looked out onto the main street.

His eyes focused on Ed's closed ones again, and he raised a hand, brushing his fingertips over skin- forehead, cheek, lips- to wake the other blonde.

The prinnies were bored. Of course, being different personalities, they expressed this in completely separate ways. Bellatrix daydreamed. Keesling fidgeted. Freidrich became inclined to do stupid things.

"Let's go find Ed, dood," he whined.

For once, Bellatrix agreed, and the three snuck out of the hotel room they'd been in, searching for their blond companion.

The touch slowly drew Edward out of his sleep, squirming as he was pulled up from the fog and his eyes fluttering open, though squeezing shut again at the light.

"Mmm," he mumbled with a yawn, stretching his arms up over his head. "Morning already?"

"Awake," Pride replied by way of agreement, drawing his hand away and tucking it back under his chin. He paused a moment, still watching as Ed stretched lithely. "Find Alphonse," the homunculus added; Ed had said they would go find someone by that name today.

Keesling had been the one to hear Ed's voice from behind a door, and all three Prinnies were now pressed against it, listening hard and trying to solve the mystery of just who was in the room with him.

That mystery was solved rather quickly when Freidrich unthinkingly put a flipper up to try the knob. The last thing he'd expected was for the knob to be unlocked and for the door to swing open, spilling all three Prinnies into the room, where they had a perfect view of their blond friend lying in bed with another man.

For several long seconds, silence reigned supreme. Then, finding silence to be unworthy of the crown, common sense rebelled and utter chaos took over the throne in the ensuing confusion. Keesling stared in utter shock, at least until Bellatrix had the presence of mind to cover his eyes. This left Freidrich, uninhibited by Bellatrix and her common sense, to let loose with a loud "DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!"

The sudden commotion startled Edward and, being still half-asleep, he flailed and fell off of the bed when his hand slid on the sheets.

"What the hell?!" He stood up, rubbing his head where he'd hit it against the nightstand, glowering down at the prinnies -- Freidrich in particular -- not understanding why in the world they were freaking out. "Would you shut up?! What the hell's the problem?!"

Pride, ever graceful even when rushing- which was what he did when Ed fell from bed- came to stand at Ed's side, subconsciously touching his wrist in lieu of the jacket sleeve he favored, and watched the strange blue things.

"Dood?" he asked uncertainly, and blinked.
