The twins' dilemma

I love how one of the twins (Alphonse) throws a fit about how it doesn't matter to Selah which is which-- and then I promptly wonder if I shouldn't change that scene around to his brother.
Albert IS more violent, more prone to an explosion -- or is he? He's very muted, lot of teenage rage (about Pix, and his dad's infidelity) that comes out in violence. Physical, not yelling. Words are a waste of time, and he was a bit of a slow learner, never good at pronounciation and speaking loudly.
--Whereas Alphonse likes dogs, speaks in complete sentences, pays attention to things. But would he explode with words? I think so. Words are his weapon of choice, since he is no good with physical violence.
What brought this out in them? Tomas is... like Fyodor. Both twins have a mix of respect and disgust, respectively. Albert wants to ignore him, Alphonse wants to be noticed.
