Every step he took in this place was silent instead of the familiar padding sound that normal bare human feet made. It didn't bother him at first since he hadn't heard it in a long time, but it began to grow on him, and he stomped around in futile attempts to create some kind of noise. There were no walls he could pound on or floors he could stamp a crater into, just some unidentified plane that kept him from falling. He hated the fact that when he looked down he couldn't be awed by his elevation or when he looked up he couldn't be jealous of another's height over him.

The only sound he ever heard here was Edward and Alphonse Elric's voice and his own. Pride was nowhere to be found so he assumed that he had been killed like Greed, Lust and Sloth. He didn't want to admit it, but he was lonely in this empty place of nothingness. The only company he had consisted of two blonde's whom in the past he had yearned to kill.

Envy stood there, staring at nothing. That younger Elric was smart. He was just trapped here. And, annoyingly enough, with Wrath and Gluttony who were somewhere else inside this cursed Gate. He bit his tongue, the tip of which stuck out between his lips. He wanted, no, needed to get out of here. Though he had nothing left to do in the outside world, he wanted out.

One reason he wanted out was freedom. Envy liked freedom. His strings with Dante had been severed yet here he was, stuck in another place he wanted to destroy. The second was curiosity. As a dragon, he saw a few things he found interest in. Tall buildings and flying machines weren't something he saw in Central. The third and final reason he wanted out?

That damn Chibi.

Envy didn't want to kill him anymore, despite his past obsession. Now he just wanted him. For what specific use and purpose he'd yet to figure out, however. Then again, that little reason could have been brought upon by Edward's reply to his taunt.

"Or is it that you want me, Envy?"

Oooo, that little...

Envy sighed, kicking whatever this air consisted of. He was so bored, he actually thought about going to find Wrath. That would make him feel slightly better. Kicking Wrath around sounded fun...

A small blue light suddenly shined before him, glowing teasingly. Envy glared at it. That was his ticket to the outside. Ed's blood. His alchemy. Envy found it odd that Ed bled so often.

Then again, he found Ed as a person odd, so he really shouldn't bother.

Back to the alchemic light. He continued to glare at it, hating it for bringing him so close to what he desired yet wouldn't allow him to get there. He didn't know why he never told Ed that his or Al's blood would make their alchemy work, because it would make this entire painful waiting end. Maybe he just wanted them to go buzzing around like they always did, for his own amusement. How could he see them, you ask? Well, this little light acted like a screen that showed the blond duo doing their usual daily routines, and it sometimes split into two to display the brothers when they were separated.

Ed would be so pissed if he knew that Envy knew how 'big' he was...

Envy blushed a little, grinning all the same. He discovered that he was quite the pervert, anticipating when Ed had to excuse himself from something to go relieve himself. The only problem he had with it was that Ed never did anything...dirty. He just did the usual bathroom things, but never anything that would excite Envy into doing it himself. He'd been tempted to talk to Ed while he was at the toilet in attempts to get him to do those things he wanted to see.

Actually, Envy would save that for when the former State Alchemist was taking a shower instead...

All he would have to do was talk while that blue light was there and get the timing right for when he spoke, the light would slowly fade until it was no longer there. It'd fade more if he willed himself to talk to Al. It sucked. But, as the random Elric-bleeding goes, the light would come back. Envy loved it when he actually shut up for a while and the screen got huge and then Ed stripped down and stepped into a shower, turned on the water and--

"God, I'm a pervert." he muttered, grinning. As he said this, the light shrunk and the now-tiny Ed on it turned his head, a bright blush on his face.

"What the hell?!"

Ed's mouth only moved when Al asked him if he was alright.

"It slipped."

The once again shrinking Ed blushed, causing Envy's interest to peak. Was the little chibi remembering their whole "you want me" thing earlier? Envy grinned again and sat down with his legs crossed, the light shifting down to his preference. He propped his chin up with one hand while the other draped down into his lap. Accidentally his fingers slid along his manhood and he shivered, the boyish temptation hitting him. Being dead didn't mean you didn't have such urges, you know.

He shook his head, mentally telling himself to stay quiet until nightfall. That was usually when Ed showered. He was almost always in too much of a rush to do it in the morning. Envy bit his lip and balled his fist. No doubt words were the only noises to reach Ed's mind.

I swear, one of these days I'm gonna lose it...
