::looks down at the ground... gulps::

From:

*too busy batting at the Gate babies to even notice the height yet; ...gets a glance down* ...I... I suddenly feel like even more of a midget.

From:

::gives him a small smile that quickly disappears as a gate baby reaches toward them again; dodges away a big, making the rope swing violently, and clings tighter, knuckles white and eyes shut:: Please tell me we will survive this.

From:

Just - just think of tea and happy things, er... *glances down again and squeezes his eyes shut*

From:

If only I could right now... ::looks upward instead, watching the gate babies warily as they stare back at him, grinning::

From:

*happens to be wheeling home from work when he catches a glance upwards and stops in the middle of the sidewalk, staring* The fuck..? *blinks*

From:

::manages a glance downward again, stomach reeling slightly; eyes widen upon seeing him:: Edward! Do... somethi- ah! ::slips down the rope a little, losing his grip::

From:

...Alfons...? *squints up into the sky before gasping* Oh..! OH! Oh, shit. Hang on, Alfons! Er, fuck, what do I do... *casts around to find someone or something to help*

From:

Hang on, little brother! *reaches down to grab hold of his shirt, simultaneously trying to bat one of the Gate babies away with his elbow, only causing the rope to swing more*

From:

::twists the end of the rope around his feet, helping him hold on just a bit more, and manages to recover despite the swinging rope, watching T!Ed with hope::

From:

*was hunting nearby when the sky opened, wandered out between the buildings to see where the startlingly loud noise came from, freezes, staring upwards when he catches a whiff of Gate Baby* .....................Alfons? *nostrils flare, squinting upwards* ALFONS!! And... Good Edward, Brother of Alfons Edward! *eyes wide, rushes closer, spots T!Ed* ...Bad Edward.... *crouches, tense, glancing between the Gate Babies, the Heiderich brothers, and T!Ed*

From:

*narrows his eyes at the sight of Gluttony, watching him from the corners of his eyes as he scans the buildings, looking for the tallest one nearest Alfons and his brother* ...Gluttony? Want to help me get up over there? *points to one of the buildings, watching him carefully* If I can get high enough, maybe I can transmute some sort of way up there to get them....

From:

*narrows his eyes back at him* Not want to help you... *growls slightly* ...........but not want Alfons for falling. You help him? I help help him. Me pick you up, you can hold onto back, me climb up building? Yes? *moves closer to Edward, reluctantly*

From:

*grits his teeth* Of course I'm going to help him. That sounds fine. Just get me up there. ...Please. *almost rolls his wheelchair away as Gluttony approaches, but stays put*

From:

*doesn't trust Edward, but feels better knowing he's here to keep an eye on him, just in case* ...Okay. *comes over to the wheelchair, clamping a hand over Edward's shoulders and lifting him bodily out of the wheelchair, tossing him... sort-of gently onto his back* You Bad Edward hold on! *heads off towards the indicated building at a run*

From:

::glances down at all of this, trying to watch but continually is distracted by gate babies and the fear of falling; yelps as he slips downward slightly again::

From:

*tightens his hold on Alfons' shirt with a cry, slipping with him and glancing panicked between the ground and the Gate babies*

From:

::shuts his eyes tightly and starts praying for his life::

From:

*growls softly as he's thrown over Gluttony's back and wraps arms around his neck, fighting the urge to choke him right now, just out of spite*

From:

*reaches the building and leaps upward as high as he can, clinging to the side and beginning to climb as fast as he can, gouging fingers and feet into the side of the building for lack of good handholds* ...Hold on Alfons! ...And Good Edward! Gluttony is coming! *watches them as he climbs, worried*

From:

*...oh, holy fuck, climbing up the side of a building; keeps his eyes shut as they go up*

From:

*is glad T!Ed's being quiet, as that makes it much easier to pretend he doesn't exist... climbs rapidly to the top of the building, hauling himself over the edge onto the roof, craning his neck to watch the Heideriches anxiously* ...Okay! On top of building! ...Do something Stupid Edward!

From:

*lets go of Gluttony once they're on the roof and hits the ground with a thump, grimacing* ...Call me stupid again and I'll kick you. *snarls faintly* I'm going to transmute something up to get them, but if one of them falls, can you catch them? *poises his hands to clap, glancing up at Gluttony then up at the Heiderichs, trying to gauge the distance*
