The difference is, I didn't have to do anything so specific for my number. All I had to do was be my best self.

[ yes

best ]

[probe]

Your best. [the way they say this suggests they absolutely do not approve of grace's effort in the past so far.]

[alteracion]

Yeah. Because I'm always the best.

[ you walked into this greed ]

[probe]

You're under my standards now, Miss Monroe, and you are barely passing as adequate. [somehow they don't even mean this rudely.] You'll have to do better.

[alteracion]

[ THROW THE WHOLE AVATAR AWAY ]

I'm under my own standards. [ first of all? but: ] Just what do you want me to do, then?

[probe]

If your standards were good enough, would you have accepted this offer? [but...alright.] There are ways to indulge without resorting to sexual activities. I would like to see you improve.

Likewise...you may indulge among other aspects as well. Your pride can be useful.

[alteracion]

You sound like I haven't been indulging at all. [ but it's idle, and she tilts her head ] So do we just get a bonus if it's our own, if which aspect we do doesn't matter?

[probe]

Consider it like this. You receive a bigger bonus when it's your own, and then additional bonuses regardless of aspect.

You must remember to indulge in your own aspect above all else, however.

[alteracion]

Prioritize being greedy, but do other things as well. Got it.

[probe]

Precisely. Greed is a manifestation of flexibility. It allows you to partake in many things that aren't your own.

[alteracion]

I get the picture. I'll partake more.

[probe]

Excellent.

Anything else for today?

[alteracion]

[ it's the next week, so: ]

No, I think that's enough for today. I'll text you again when I need you.

[probe]

Alright then. [and just like that greed will walk away and disappear.]
