Breathing an amused breath out through his nose, Eddie smiles, reluctant to pull away himself.

It's a surprise to see Harrington's eyes shining like that, and Eddie momentarily presses his lips together. That might be his answer right there as to whether or not he makes it home again, but it isn't like he couldn't have guessed the outcome. His lips quirk in a reassuring way, and he shrugs a shoulder.

"Uh, well. Aliens, first off. Which you know. They pulled me away from Henderson, and I nearly bleed out in the snow, but uh- this dude with a metal suit flew me to the hospital, and some magic guy managed save me. So, uh...I guess...that's not how things happen back home, huh?" Damn, why's his voice gone all scratchy and tight all the sudden....? He tries to laugh it off.
