[should grace decide to follow through with the reply text, she will find greed seated on the piano bench, a tea cup held in a clawed, cracked hand. there's a teapot next to them, but there isn't a second cup just yet.]
Miss Monroe. [they do seem a little temperamental, but it's probably fine and nothing to do with the fact grace threw condom balloons of soda all over this room.]

[ grace doesn't seem put off by the temperamental greeting or seem to feel bad at all about the room, because it's not dirty anymore so it's fine? she strides in like she owns the place.
the good news is she also has no reaction to the clawed hand. so that's. that's the one good point ]
Greed. I didn't think you'd actually show up.

I texted you, didn't I? I was curious. [ and while grace isn't entirely convinced the avatars aren't the station version of nulls, well, she has learned to roll with it. also maybe not all nulls she is still judging that one, don't make me explain horrible train logic. anyway: ] The others had a lot to say about you.
[ grace didn't like, ask, but she overheard Some things. ]

Opening statements? It's not a debate. [ she leans against a nearby. idk wall or the piano, casual ] You might not need to get to know me, but I don't know anything about you besides the complaints from the others.
Well, I'm not debating.
[ it's the most natural way to have a conversation, and she shrugs ]
It was part of it! I'm wearing "your" symbol, so of course I've been curious before that.

[ she does look a little annoyed at that, but doesn't deny having her own words quoted back at her. which. rude. ]
Like I said, you may know about me, but I don't know about you. [ and then she shrugs ] Isn't it the point of this place anyway? To indulge ourselves?

Oh, that? [ :)? ] That was nothing, it was just a test. Takeru and I wanted to see what would happen if you made a mess without destroying anything. Besides, soda's not nearly as bad as some of the other stuff people did, is it? At least it wasn't rotten produce. Or cheese. Or raw meat. Or whatever happened with the elevator.
[ she could go on. ]
[ she could go on. ]
So you like the instruments?
[ she could at least pretend to apologize, but: ]
I promise it won't happen again. It's no good if things don't just reset, anyway.

Not a fan of the rec room?
[ "what about the other rooms" grace can do without those. anyway; ]
I will, I will. No need to hold a grudge, I just didn't know any better. And I'll make sure Takeru leaves this room alone too.

Are they to anyone's taste?
[ grace is fine to shit on the movies. they're bad. but the lingering silence makes her smile a little, tilting her head ]
Did meeting all the others with this symbol go so poorly you expected more of a fight, or was it just because you were mad about the soda thing?

Perhaps those with an underdeveloped taste, I'm sure. [they're bad! it seems as though it's easier for greed to respond rather than offer things up on their own, especially given they finish their tea and set their cup aside before answering her.]
The latter. [they shrug with both hands. they actually don't seem that mad now.] I would prefer those with my symbol know a bit of refinement in their indulgence.

[ hm. she raises an eyebrow ]
Refined indulgence seems a bit contradictory to me, to be honest. Or did you just mean less messy?

Grace is fine. [ but she sighs, dismissive ] Isn't it just wanting everything for yourself?

Or, in this case, how far I'm willing to go for what I came here for?
