I don't want you to bow down to just me. I want you bowing to that snot-nosed brat and all his cheery eyed, happily-ever-after friends and family, too. If you wanna just tell them you're scared shitless of me, instead of just making them think you're sorry, that's fine, too, but... if you're not scared of me, [With a snicker of a snort, he holds up on shielded hand, genuinely high on the thought of following up on his threat.] I guess I'll just find you and kill you right away.
I'm just sayin', a month where I'm guaranteed not to attack you unless I'm protectin' someone or somethin' from you'd probably be pretty high on your list of wants. The greediest Greed himself is offerin' you somethin' you want. Time's a damned good gift.
[For his part, Greed simply has no real way of finding him, and figures it will take him about three months under normal conditions, if Envy lays low like he did after his wedding. The mechanic couldn't identify where, exactly, he was, but if he's out doing enough kneeling and scraping and favors, the community's bound to keep track of him and turn up some leads.]
[It's unfortunate that this is audio only, because Envy is making some very interesting expressions right now...]
You sonuva-- You don't even like the kid that much! And now you're gonna do him a favor by forcing me to-- [Envy growls, the sound terminating into a defeated sigh.]
You are such an asshole, you know that? No wonder Father never cared enough to try and bring you back into the fold...
Let's get one thing straight: I am not scared of you! But I'm not a complete moron, either. I know what you're capable of, and with this body... I wouldn't last two seconds against a Homunculus. I'll admit that. I'm just trying to buy myself some time, until I can get my real body back, understand?!
This ain't about like. [But it's clear Envy knows exactly what it's about. So, there's no need to monologue. Greed feels a snort that builds into a chuckle that threatens to crack into laughter expresses it all perfectly. He reigns it in before it gets that far, replying in a voice that, to anyone who didn't know better, would sound almost friendly but sympathetic.]
Aa. You're buying time and I'm selling it. Even though I don't need what you're buyin' with. Damn, I'm generous.
Yeah, yeah... Laugh it up now while you still can, big brother. Because when I get my real body back, I'll make sure that your generosity comes back to bite you in the ass...
Now, because I know how much you love taking advantage of loopholes in contracts, let's be crystal clear on what exactly is expected of me when I make this lame-ass "apology". It just needs to be big and public, right? That's it?
I can tell you to redo it as many times as I want 'till I get a good one. And I wanna see you sorry. And I'm the only one who can veto the payback favors people demand out of you.

I don't wanna expose people to your naked ass. That's a requirement. Get dressed first.
