Right.

[Al's voice loses some of its abundant energy, becoming softer and sounding more child-like, though losing none of the enthusiasm and warmth.]

As long as you have friends at your back, then you can achieve anything... my brother taught me that.

[Not exactly by word, but by deed.]

[villainously]

( sounds a bit like something his own brother would say. Liam had always been too trusting. Killian was not so easy to trust. it's against everything Hook has tried to live by, but he does want to change that. )

Aye, your brother sounds a wise fellow.

[armoured]

[Edward Elric. Wise. These two words do not normally go together in a sentence, and a lot of people who heard Hook say that may have fallen over laughing. Luckily, Al isn't one of them, as he thinks the world of his brother for all his faults.]

Mm, he's all I have, I don't know what I'd do without him.

[villainously]

I know the feeling. ( because he felt the same about his brother, once upon a time. he had to learn what to do without him. )

If he's not here, you'll get back to him. I'm told family always finds each other.

( until it dies terribly in your arms but hey, positive outlook, right? )

[armoured]

Right!

[He sounds SO DETERMINED, like he's now ready to take on the whole world by himself. There's no time like the present for taking the bull by the horns...]

Then I guess we better get moving, huh? Make sure to check in with me tonight, okay?

[villainously]

I will.

( he can't promise a great deal more than that, but checking in? that he can do. )

Stay safe and don't stay out in the cold too long, yeah? Best to be cautious.

[armoured]

Mm, you too, Killian.

[He will worry so much if he doesn't hear from him tonight.]

Goodbye!

[He fumbles a little on the device, making it crackle a bit, before he manages to hang up.]
