Unaware of his brother's discomfort, Al allows Ed to shift as needed. He was more concerned with the color that was rising to his brother's already flushed features and lifted his hand to brush his knuckles against Ed's cheek. "Are you feeling alright?" he asked, concern coloring his tone. He shifted slightly again, to bring his cheek against his brother's, checking Ed's fever again.

"You're still so warm. Maybe you should rest some more," he said, pulling away to give Ed a little space. His hands moved too, settling on Ed's mismatched shoulders, prepared to give his brother a lecture if he needed to.
