Its cold outside. A-and its four in the morning! [ He wanted him to come over, but... ] ...A-and I need to clean Ichiru-san's bedroom, since the house was broken into...
[ Waaaait, probably telling him about the fact his house got broken into wasn't the best way to keep Al away... ]
[ Watanuki hears him calling; he answers back softly from his spot in bed. A faint light pours out from the attic. ]
Come in.
[ The attic is dimly lit by a light in the back of the room. A cot rests on the floor, covered by what looks to be a handmade quilt, and a few pillows. There, Pipefox is sleeping, curled up on one of the pillows. The rest of the attic is plain; typical of Watanuki. A Phantomhive bunny plush sits by the bed, from Sebastian. A few clothes are folded and put away off to the side. Mainly, however, strange things Watanuki's found during his stay in Adstring are collected in the attic as decoration: bottles from Howl's place, a few things Jade left behind... ]
[ He looks up to Alphonse when the other comes up, sitting in his night yukata. In the dim light, his eyes stand out like a cat's. ]
[Al is somewhat more haggard than when Watanuki saw him last. He moves with a little bit of favoring to his left leg; the old bullet wound is acting up with the cold. He kneels down next to him, offering a small smile.]
So do you. [ Watanuki offered him a smile back, patting the cot for Alphonse to have a seat by him. The attic was nice and warm, the heat rising into the room. ]
...I'm just tired. Its not easy seeing weird stuff in your dreams. Especially when it comes true. [ He looked up to the sky. ] Things have been... exciting lately.
...You know, it wasn't until I came here to Adstringendum... that I actually kind of appreciated what I could see. Before, it was a total pain. Everyone back home treated me like some kind of freak...
But here, its a little different! I guess everyone has something that's special about them.
So its nice. Not because I'm meshed in with everyone, but...
I feel like I'm looking after all of these important, special people.
[It's strange, being touched like that so casually. Until coming here again physical affection didn't happen that often. It doesn't hurt, so he half-smiles.]
Old injuries. I was shot there, once, and stubborn about seeing a healer. Now it aches when it's cold.
Shot? Ouch... [ He couldn't imagine what that felt like... though he had many other kinds of pain before. Watanuki moved a blanket over to him, covering his legs. ]
You should keep warm, then, Alphonse-kun! Its only going to get colder.

...I know... whatever it is...
Its painful... [ He let out a faint hiss of breath. ]
...I'm still burning up!

I have to grow up sometime, right? And face these dreams on my own... [ These nightmares. ]
[ Call ]
I'm on my way.

I figured... I could handle it myself...
Alphonse-kun has other things to worry about besides me.
[ Call ]
[ Call ]
You spend all of your time helping others, when you really just need to think about Alphonse-kun once and awhile!

...Okay. Um... I'll leave the door unlocked for you.

[ He paused thoughtfully. ]
...I should be in the attic...
[ Call ]
Watanuki...?
[He calls up them softly.]
