No, no, no, no, no, NO!

[Hello Johto, your friendly neighborhood wizard has decided to drop back in. Or rather has come back entirely against his will, which probably goes a long way towards explaining exactly why he’s so mad right now. Angry enough that he seems entirely oblivious to the Smoochum clinging to the top of his head and licking his hair happily.]

Dammit, I said I was ready! I was- you send me HERE? You’ve got a sick sense of humor, Uriel! You hear me? SICK! That woman who said- …that is NOT FUNNY.

[He lets out a frustrated snort, lacking someone he can properly blame.]

…Dammit. So apparently I’m back. A few minutes ago I didn’t remember that there was even a HERE to get back to, but I’m back. Probably not from outer space, unless the cosmology of the afterlife is worryingly Lovecraftian. And hell’s bells, now that song’s stuck in my head. Lemme just say that the timing on all this? NOT helping the paranoia that this is some kind of hell.

Smoo-chu!

Oh, and Lara’s still here.

[Harry hooks a thumb at the Smoochum acting as an impromptu hat. She grins happily, waving at the camera.]

Guess if this is all a massive hallucination, at least my psychoses are consistent. Me and Dorothy Gale.

If I ever decide to switch hairstyles, I'll be sure to come to you.

[Not entirely sure he trusts Envy even with this. Names can do serious damage in the wrong hands.]

...Harry Dresden. You?

[Not like he'd be able to do much without a full name anyway. Even if there was someone here that still had access to magic.]

Envy.

[Equivalent exchange; you give him your real name, he'll give his unless there's a reason not to. Fortunately for Harry, there isn't any alchemy that having his name would help or hurt. Not that Envy can use alchemy himself anyway.]

And it wouldn't exactly be hard to improve the hairstyle you've got now.

Envy? ...Your parents didn't like you very much, did they.

[Not touching the hair thing, though Lara does choose this moment to lick the top of his head, giving Harry a rather massive cow-lick.]

My mother does have a very interesting sense of humor.

[He does like his name, as awful as the reason it was given to him is. Much preferable to the human name he had before, the one he doesn't share with anyone.]

[He is going to snicker at Harry though.] See, your Pokemon has the right idea.

[At that, Harry almost asks about the obviously-crazy woman claiming to be his mother, but thinks better of it. That's definitely not something he wants to discuss with someone prone to Envy's particular brand of advice.]

Yeah, you do both seem to share a certain japanese-cartoon chique. With the spikey hair and all.

[Lara's hairstyling was going to be a one-off thing, but then Envy went and encouraged her. So now she's busily gumming Harry's hair into a shape to make the hair-gel industry weep for joy.]

[Envy is always pleased to be an enabler, and his amused smirk just gets wider as Lara keeps styling Harry's hair.]

[Although this is yet another cultural reference totally lost on him, as he has no idea what Japan is or about the style of the its cartoons.]

What can I say, I do like the look. As to its resemblance to whatever you're talking about, I'll take your word for it.
