Alright. [ she thinks she has the best chance with wrath, but she's definitely noting that for later. but: ] Literally everyone on the ship says talking to Gluttony for anything is the worst, though. Usually unprompted.
Gluttony is a very particular sort of person. But they will make you a deal if that's the avenue you would wish to take. And if not, their perspective may have its own value.
Hmmm. Not worth it. I might as well hang out here and check your opinion on the tea. [ a beat ] Which you're not allowed to dislike, because a very strong minded six year old recommended it to me.
That you know it's the good stuff because the bug on the box has a cowboy hat.
[ grace jokes, but she did learn a thing or two about tea from hanging out in the tea room with gu yun, so it's not like she doesn't know how to brew it. it's just also very funny to say this.
there is no poison because this game has cursed her into being good ]
[...kids are so strange. he seems briefly mollified by that before he shakes his head.]
Well. Who am I to question great taste? [this is absolutely a joke, even if the delivery is dry. the tea itself is fine though so he takes another sip.]
Exactly! Can't possibly object to it with that kind of argument, right? [ grace seems pleased he's going along with it, moving back to pet maus again ] I would've bought coffee, but you seemed more like a tea person.
Clearly. [it's obvious hazel's important to grace and it's half the reason he's going along with it. maus enjoys the pets as always.]
I am, thank you. Not that I dislike coffee, but I prefer tea. Prior to the library opening to all of you, I spent most of my office hours in the tea room.
It was one of the easiest things Mollymauk could figure out how to mostly spell when he wanted to talk to me privately. [shrug. so yes, it's when people wanted to talk and he just adopted the phrase himself.]
It's dependent on the cart, isn't it? What about basis necessities, such as food?
It's dependent on the car. [ she repeats it like it's completely normal to quest for necessities ] We just take what we need from other cars. There's a lot in the mall car, that's part of why we took it over. Having actual bathrooms was a big plus.
How odd...magic? [he does not believe in magic, but also grace's world is beyond comprehension sometimes.] If you were to never leave then nothing would be replaced.

I'll try with Wrath, probably. [ she hesitates and after a long pause. ] You're... okay, right?
[ with medb in the medbay and mahito dead she is wondering about how greed feels and it's horrible she does not know how to deal with asking that ]

[this is sunday so no emotion sharing, but he nods anyway.]
I believe I am. There's nothing to be done to change the past now.
no subject
Okay. I guess I'll let you finish working in peace?
[ she says. petting the dog still. ]
no subject
If you'd like. Though I'm sure Maus doesn't mind the company. [neither does greed, but apparently it's too hard to just say that.]
no subject
Well, I did say I was coming here to kidnap him, but he'd just come right back to you.
no subject
He would. [greed sounds amused.] He's...very loyal to me that way. But he does have other people he likes.
no subject
You're his favorite, obviously, since you're his master. [ boops the dog's nose ] So even if he does like me, I'd have no chance in keeping him away.
no subject
He'd stay for a few hours at least. He knows his way around the base quite well with or without my assistance.

[ she thinks that's a little hilarious way to phrase it, though it's also. not inaccurate. so that makes sense ]
I never thought about what I liked more out of the two, but finding either of them on the train is kind of a luck of the draw anyway.

[ but also it's in a parallel dimension, so the real answer is Aliens. but she tilts her head ]
Nothing in that one car, that's true. There's a lot of cars on the train, though.
