[Allen's skimmed through all the feeds (oh god, why is no one using filters, but at least nothing too revealing's been said yet) with an efficiency born of practice and burning urgency, and now, the feed starts with the sound of a slamming door and a dizzying spin as he, like Lenalee, takes to the rooftops as well. If it turns out he's needed wherever Kanda(s?) and Alma are, travelling by rooftops is the fastest way to go.]
Alma. [ Sprinting up the stairs, but in contrast, his voice is rock-steady, quietly insistent but not demanding. ] I know it's a lot to take in right now, but I can explain.
[He doesn't tell Alma to calm down, doesn't ask him not to hurt Kanda, because Allen has seen his conversation with Lenalee and trusts him to keep his word. This Alma obviously knows them, too― This has to be hard enough on him already, without having the people he thinks he knows treat him like he may be dangerous.]
[At this, there's a very reflexive, very visible twitch, starting from a quick quirk and crease of white eyebrows, before making its way down to a tic in one cheek, a lopsided tilt of his mouth, and ending in a quizzical look slanted at the camera.]
[ automatically: ] It's Allen.
[But Alma seems perfectly in control of himself, so Allen slows down, pausing on the next landing. Maybe it'll be fine to just have Lenalee on standby after all― Allen does have a bitty to watch.]
I haven't done anything to it, it wasn't brought here with me. Libitina's the one who took us.

But... at least this new version of him isn't an akuma. In fact...]
Whoa...

Um. Oh. You're not a mirror.

Alma pauses. Why was he calling him "Alma"... Didn't he usually call him by his last name?
He's caught offstep once more, fuzzy eyebrows knitting together as he stares at the small screen. This doesn't make any sense. None of this.]
....What did you do to the Ark?

He doesn't know why you were rushing in the first place, or where, but he does make note that everyone seems to be running crazily everywhere.]
The little ghost girl...?
