Edward was never cold. Even though it was freezing and it looked like snow, the creature that raised himself hesitantly on what looked like a formidable set of razorblades did not feel temperature change. He was confused, though... he had gone to sleep in his fireplace, and it had been too warm for ice to stay unmelted for long. A little thrill of excitement ran up Edward's spine, thinking of how beautiful he could make this place look if he had enough ice together at once.

The wild-haired, leather-clad young man then turned his attention to the situation at hand. It was odd that he hadn't worried immediately that he was somewhere other than where he'd thought he was, but Edward often lost track of where he was. It was part of his innocent perception of the here and now, and he knew well enough that impossible things could happen.

He glanced at the woman on the ground nearby. She looked like she was asleep, but a terrible dread gripped Edward. He had seen his father like this, and the rigid unresponsiveness had meant that he would never move again. But almost immediately, Edward was distracted by her bright pink hair. What wonderful hair... he'd never seen anything like it. Bending down, he quietly, happily began trimming the edges with scissors that were, in actuality, his hands.

"I'm sorry!" Edward said, in a soft and supremely apologetic voice, folding his scissors together in a similar fashion to a child whose usefulness was in suspension, feeling bad about not being able to help Tonks. He frowned, wondering if Tonks was like him. Not finished, in need of someone to complete her and help her reach others. She seemed finished to him; his eyes flickered toward her hands, which were flesh and soft with rosy fingernails. "Boring?"

Edward watched, puzzled, as Tonks picked up the two journals. He listened to the Latin phrases, certain that he'd heard them in lessons at some point, but unable to retrieve the information he had never had reason to retain. Shaking his head, he bit his lip, eyes flickering to the ground. Edward was happiest when he was useful, and it seemed like he was unable to do much of anything to help in this situation.

"S'alright! I'm dead clumsy." She chuckled, opening one of the boxes. Water. That was good. Matches..she picked those up. "Wet matches. Thanks, for that." Muttered to whoever had supplied them with these things.

Then she picked up the tic-tacs and shook them. Seriously? "They took a page from Moody's book." This would be like one of his uber-paranoid training sessions. She shook her head a little and looked back up to Edward. "One of these are yours."

It was odd for anyone to say that they were clumsy in Edward's presence, since his range of movements were so stiff and limited and his face was covered with unintentionally self-inflicted cuts and scars. But he had seen her almost-fall, and accepted the testimony faithfully.

He watched curiously as she examined the items in her case, since if he did he would doubtless hurt or break them. "Mine?" He asked doubtfully. Even when he'd lived with Peg and her family, he hadn't had possessions.
