And does he ever, more than Envy was expecting him too even after the prodding. He lets out a quiet snort at the eloquent description of Heather's Everything, mainly because...well, yeah, that's just about the easiest way of describing it all. There's so much there and for every new layer uncovered there seem to be twenty more hidden underneath it.
But, like she'd told Al earlier, that's why she and Envy work so well. Because she's far from normal and so is he.
They have that in common.
The rest, though? Makes his fingers tighten their grip on his crossed arms, and grit his teeth. But this time, it's less out of anger and instead almost a wince. He knows what he used to be like, and Al isn't the only one who worries about what he still might be. What he might do, even if he doesn't want to. So when he speaks again, even though his tone comes out defensive just on reflex, it's...sort of a reassurance, too.
"I've freaked out around her before and never tried to hurt her then. And even the day I forgot everything I didn't manage it."
As much as the memory-less him had sure had a lot of murderous thoughts about his then-captor, he'd been entirely too ineffectual as a human to do a damn thing.
