Have the most surprised look, Al. "Uh.. I've just been calling him Ponyta." Or, you know "hey you" but we're not going to tell Alphonse that. If he only has one of each, they don't really need names, right? Right? He's hopeless.

"You can give him something, if you want. It's your food." He might be rolling his eyes at the Ponyta's behavior, at this point. "Just don't do it because he looks so desperate, he's playing that up because he knows what it gets him." Attention, and lots of it. Which Ed isn't particularly fond of, if only because he doesn't want anyone to think the thing's neglected.

"On the plus side, he must like you if he's bothering you for food already." A short laugh escaped him, shaking his head. "Which means he won't stop any time soon."
