Envy doesn't know just how much had been left out. He'd known that there wasn't an ending to the story he'd been given, and he would probably feel more of a kind of way about that if he and Al hadn't been one fragile truce for the sake of a third party away from being at each other's literal throats at the time.
And after that, when they were all getting along better, it hadn't mattered quite so much to go hunting for the rest of the story.
Surely Envy and Gluttony would have been enough, to pay the Gate's toll.
When Wrath's tone first goes flat and he begins his story, Envy's eyes widen in near-alarm, and flick quickly towards Scar's and then back. He's not really used to this from this particular homunculus.
But even if it's difficult to see Wrath upset, and alarming when he hadn't quite MEANT to upset the kid this much...he had all but asked what had happened. He does want to know.
But Scar if you possibly have any more giant steady brick wall guy words in there....
As Wrath gets to describing Gluttony, Envy's arm finds its way around Wrath's shoulders without him thinking about it instead of just having a hand resting. He saw the thing, he knows how...bad it was.
"I saw it, once. Here. In...in that dream forest. I know," he squeezes Wrath's shoulder, now that his hand is on the one that isn't made of metal, casting for words in what he remembers of things others have said to him, "Take your time. Just what you want to say."
