[OVER HE TROTS, looking to be in a fairly chipper mood - not that that's anything new for him. He'll seat himself across from Greed, folding his legs under his chair.]

Hi! Sorry about the late notice, but I told her I'd talk to you later tonight. Uh, she said to tell you that I'm gonna kill someone?

[Thanks Mahito.]

[probe]

[and greed lets out a noise that sounds oddly like a choking sound.]

I beg your pardon?

[touchups]

[Greed's lucky he sat across the table or he'd be patting their back right now.]

Yeah! [Y...YEAH!!!] She said Wrath told her to tell me that I should tell you?

[So he fuckin did, without really asking why.]

[probe]

[well. alright then.]

And did she happen to say why?

[touchups]

Because there was something she couldn't tell me until I did.

[He just

holds his hands up, in a "I DUNNO" gesture... Does he actually have a braincell? Questionable.]

[probe]

[who the fuck let this clown in here.]

Right. [they seem to actually know why, but they may be stalling a bit.] ...we cannot stop you when you wish to indulge in these manners. Do you have a plan in motion? A proposition?

[touchups]

[yall did and then greed handpicked him personally, good work.

Anyway, he's just giving Greed a curious little look at that. STOP STALLING!!]

Do what you have to do to win, right? [His favorite indulgence, Greed!! Murder!! Though he's been having a great time with the general air of fury and misery lately, too. Terrible.

As for that:] We've been talking about it! [There's two of them. Hell.] Do we need to like, report it to you or something? I figured you guys just knew everything that happened here automatically. Like it just downloads into your brain or something.

[probe]

[i would like a fleafund on this purchase.]

Indeed. [but there's a sigh nevertheless.]

Come speak with me again when you have a plan in order, and perhaps there will be something I can do for you. You will not speak, think, or even breathe of this offer near anyone or you will get nothing.

Have I made myself clear?

[touchups]

[TOO LATE THERE'S NO TAG.

Anyway, he looks briefly surprised for a second, but just gives a thumbs up a second later. God.]

Yeah, sure! That won't be a problem. [HIS EMPTYASS HEAD.] So I just find you once we work everything out? We'll probably have it figured out by tomorrow, I think.

[They have been talking about this

literally since Tamaki died.]

[probe]

Yes. I refuse to think about how long you've been waiting to do this, but once you and Miss Jahad have spoken and come to an agreement, we can discuss your attempts further.

[touchups]

[yeah eli and i don't want to either that's fair]

Okay! [He says with a BIG OL' SUNNY SMILE. That he manages to make such genuinely jovial expressions all the time is truly just a cursed ability.]

--Oh! By the way, I talked to Grace like you said. I like her a lot!

[Hm.]

[probe]

[mahito is truly a literal curse on greed's life right now.]

Did you. How did that go?

[because mahito liking her doesn't mean it's mutual? just checking?]

[touchups]

[YEAH!! THAT'S WHAT HE LOVES TO HEAR!]

Really well! [If only Greed's life was even a little bit easy.] We have something super fun planned for Tuesday. She's got a lot of great ideas, huh? I got to know Medb a little better too, and she's been great!

[GREED'S TEAM IS JUST A HELL.]

[probe]

Ah. Have the three of you spoken together? You may benefit from taking ideas from each other.

[also, they can then leave them alone for a while and be horrible gremlins together.]

[touchups]

[The smile he shoots Greed says that he probably knows exactly why they are suggesting this. But also, is it really a good suggestion?? THEIR POWER MIGHT JUST TRIPLE.]

We haven't yet, but I'll talk to them about it next week, I guess!

[probe]

See to it that you do and report your findings to me.

Miss Monroe could benefit from a bit of extra indulgence, and I believe you and Miss Medb may be able to guide her in her efforts.

[touchups]

Wow, really? I'm kinda surprised. She seems like she'd indulge however she wants all the time.

[But he likes her well enough that he just shrugs and nods.]

Sure though, no problem.

[probe]

I suppose she's doing fine, but it could be better.

[greed is greed for a reason.]

[touchups]

Hm. Are you sure there's an upward limit of how much "better" any of us could be doing?

[WILL ANY OF YOUR KIDS EVER BE GOOD ENOUGH FOR YOU DAD!!!!!]

[probe]

There is. You'll know it when you start seeing the benefits from it.

[no.]

[touchups]

[Greed didn't love him enough and that's why he turned into a serial killer.]

Mm, okay, okay. Well! That's all I really wanted to say, anyway. I'll get out of your hair for now.

[probe]

[that tracks.]

If you insist. Come back when you've come up with a plan with Miss Jahad.

[begone, demon.]
