[He watches her quietly as he listens before shrugging]
Maybe someone else will, have you thought about asking around? It would be nice to keep going I think... Fresh food always reminds me of home.
[He'd never tried his hand at gardening, so he couldn't exactly offer his own services, he might be willing but that didn't mean the skill was there. Ed wasn't about to kill what was left of the garden.]
If the bed's empty and it's someone you don't really know, do you mind?
[It was an honest question, sure some of his roommates had gone just as abruptly but if they weren't acquainted it was none of his business. Maybe those people had wanted to go home. At the last part though, Ed gets quiet. There's a long moment where he doesn't speak at all, and when he does it's fairly soft.]
That's what I don't like about this place. They say we come here willingly and we're welcome to leave when the portal is pointed in the right direction, but people leave here just like they did everywhere else. With no warning, whether they wanted to or not.
