Absently Edward places the mostly eaten plate of food to one side and finds a pen and a piece of paper writing down a few things on a piece of paper. He then looks up for a moment and blinks in surprise when he notices his brother.

"Oh, Ambrose. There you are." He smiles at the man and Ambrose gives him a weak smile in return. It would be clear to Vela that the emaciated state of his brother was painful for Ambrose but it was also clear that there was fraternal love in spades between them. Edward walks up to him and hands him the note. "Can you get me these supplies please?" Ambrose nods his head. "Of course, I've gotten an out-building set up if you want to run some experiments." Edward pauses and nods. "Yes, an out building. That is wise."

Then Edward wanders back to his chalkboard to scribble on it, clearly on the new ideas Vela had put into his head.
