He didn't trust this person, and Edward just narrowed his eyes at the question. "Why should we tell you?" he snapped, golden eyes glaring. He didn't really believe this mumbo jumbo that some person had brought them here and put them into these... bodies. Not really. But then.. how could those animal parts be explained? He wasn't sure.. but if some being put him here, then why did he still have his automail and Al not be in a suit of armor? Granted he wasn't ungrateful for the fact that his brother was in the flesh.. but it just didn't make sense.
As his brother spoke softly, Edward's brows creased, "Don't tell him anything, Al." And then he looked to Sloth once more, "If you know so much, then why even ask?" He huffed, not buying any of this and making it rather clear. His memories were his own, and he wasn't going to spout out his experiences and life story to someone he didn't really know.

"Right. Just so you two can feel a bit more at ease with it, since you're.... missing bits o' yer memory, I'll just say it flat out. When we snagged ye, you'd kicked the bucket."
She shook her head, seemingly out of pity.
"T' be precise, Edward got himself killed. then you traded yerself for him and then he, once awake, kicked homonculous butt, and tried to trade himself for you. Again. And of course it continued, since you, being ALIVE, went looking for him, and, once more, tried to trade yourself for him again. v.v Dude. You really should stop tryin' t' use the gate, it sucks a**."

A razor edged smile was their answer as Sloth retrieved snapshots of certain events. The original array for the philosopher's stone. The moment when Al as a suit of armor tried to bring back to life the CLEARLY dead body of his brother, as Ed lay in a pool of blood even as the putrid color of the philosopher's stone shone through the gaps in his armor. Edward, half naked and painted in symbols of the alchemical arrays for the gate, standing in a purple array, all too familiar, starting to glow.
The very last array Al had been working on, to bring his brother back from wherever he may be, drawn there and glowing as he activated it, two homonculi, Wrath and Gluttony fighting in the array. All stood in that image, symbols drawn on his gloves, eyes filled with determination
Djibril, with a gate of what seemed to be golden light, NOT the gate, seemingly retrieving a pair of bodies that were all too recognizeable. The Elric brother's bodies lying too pale and still and calm on cushioned tables. A young batwinged male, taller than both Elrics, clad in the smock that protected his clothes, long, wavy dark hair tied back, a brilliant contrast to his pale skin, features graceful and striking, blue eyes cool and clinically intent, gloved hands long and slim moving and checking their pulses.
Sloth gave the stubborn pair the images she'd retrieved from the file.
"This enough proof, fellas?"

Sloth raised an eyebrow in disbelief. The accent grew a bit more pronounced, given she was really starting to get bored. Bored meant sleepy. Sleepy meant she didn't feel like taking long long convos. Being blunt and thinking the way she did, she answered him point blank.
"How ain't it the same? Look's all th' same, t' me.
Y' don't trust what I'm telling you, so there's no point in asking or expecting you to trust me given ye don't KNOW me...An' thus any and all credentials I give ye are s**t.
So, unless I can dump GRAPHIC proof in yer lap that I am telling the truth about what I be tellin' ye, ye'r gonna stay distrustful. 'S the way things are."
A fluid shrug.
"Anyway, I ain't human an' never have been, so pardon me if I don't give in much to what you'd consider tact. >] I ain't gonna coddle ye and go around beating th' bush. Th' truth is, I ain't th' head honcho, I just assist. And THAT means t' know the reasons WHY you are here, ye may as well go talk to th' boss.
Comprende, mi amigo?"
