Oh, he sure as hell was smart enough to stay down. Getting punched aside, he really didn't want to be sick and that was a very real possibility with how much he'd been drinking.

"No, I'm not you. Just the worst case scenario." Don't try that game with him, kid. His life was full of more just like you comparisons than the teen could even dream of, and they weren't limited to his time in Amestris.

Still, he knew what doubles were, he was familiar with the multiverse. "You're an arrogant teen who was a dumb kid that tried to bring his mom back to life and your brother lost his body in the process. Stop me if I'm wrong here, but that's still the same no matter who you are and no matter who I am. You're probably still on your mission to get Al's body back, and that's where we differ, the journey's not the same. The fact that you called me Envy as soon as you got here told me that you haven't seen what I've seen and if you're lucky you never will."

As for the rest of the teen said? The deadpan tired attitude gradually melted into anger, real anger for the first time since the younger Ed had spotted him. "You don't know a damn thing about me." Yet, he felt entitled to lay out the other Ed's life as if it was as readable as a map in front of his face. "My best friend just died here, excuse me for taking some time to mourn, dick."

Even that insult stung, he'd picked it up from Jay, that joke they always fell back on because of one of Jason's brothers.
