*KNOCKITY-KNOCK*

*Gale answers the door.*

Ah, good evening, Greed. Would you like to come in? A cup of tea, perhaps?

man_of_means April 28 2006, 14:15:05 UTC

"Sure! Why not? What have you got?"

gale_force April 28 2006, 16:50:46 UTC

Green tea. *He pours him a cup and passes it to him.*

What business brings you here today?

man_of_means April 28 2006, 23:47:46 UTC

"Just visiting, amigo! How ya' been?"

He sniffs the tea and starts sipping.

gale_force April 29 2006, 00:11:54 UTC

Ah, that is perfectly acceptable. *He motions for Greed to take a seat, and does so himself, sitting back down on the couch, fingers hooked through the handle of his own cup of tea. The cup looks small in his hands.*

I have been well. Busy, certainly. I recently returned from a mission to Rebecca Chambers' Raccoon City. No doubt you have received word of the incident, and the outcome?

man_of_means April 29 2006, 00:28:47 UTC

"Yeah. I heard ya' lost one. I'd have helped if I hadn't been busy. Zombies and such can't really hurt me with any permanence."

He sits and set the cup on a table-top.

"Everyone good?"

gale_force April 29 2006, 01:20:47 UTC

Yes, Kenneth Sullivan. He was a good man; I wish there was more I could have done.

The Embryon, Victoria are all in good health. Everyone is in his or her correct form; no new changes of gender, age, or species...

However, there have been...incidents with the Atma; it is my hope to finish work on suppressive drug therapy before more of my comrades enter a state of instability. All that remains is to test some current prototypes...perhaps then we may live in greater harmony with our new environment and...change of diet.

How have you been occupying your time, Greed?

man_of_means April 29 2006, 01:28:57 UTC

"The bar, hitting on new ladies, buying a friend's soul off of Satan, the usual."

gale_force April 29 2006, 02:19:49 UTC

"Buying a friend's soul..."

*He raises an eyebrow.* Jocular as always, I see.

man_of_means April 29 2006, 02:36:13 UTC

"You callin' me a jock?"

gale_force April 29 2006, 02:45:01 UTC

No, no. I was referring to your tendency to joke. You are joking, surely...?

man_of_means April 29 2006, 02:49:24 UTC

"No."

gale_force April 29 2006, 02:50:32 UTC

*He rubs the bridge of his nose.* . . . Right. Would you care to enlighten me . . . ?

man_of_means April 29 2006, 03:10:53 UTC

"Chick who works for me is Belial. A fallen angel. I don't like it when someone has two masters. One had to go, and it wasn't me. She was under soul contract to serve him. She took us to their hell to negotiate."

He sips from his tea and continues.

"He looked like a pansy. I was gonna start some shit, but she told me that I'd get farther with actual talking, rather than wrecking his place."

gale_force April 29 2006, 03:17:00 UTC

Indeed; It is always better to negotiate if the option exists.

*His eyes flick from where they'd been watching his tea, up to regard Greed.*

So, you struck a deal with the devil? Risky business -- precisely the sort I would expect from you.
