( his attention is rapt, the scratch of his pen long silent. the basic understanding of alchemy is sufficient, and he can respect that it's not something roy would want getting out.
it's all very interesting, because if he stops and actually thinks about it, if firebending were less natural to him, he'd probably describe it how roy is doing now. his understanding is... scientific, where mako's is innate. but there's enough overlap that the soul of their kinship persists. )
I understand, and I'll honor your promise.
( he feels that's important to stress, the fact he isn't interested in pushing. mako has never needed secrets for secrets' sake. he's happy to let roy keep his, and will even help him to guard it if needs be. fire always has a cost. )
