[Lust looks less than pleased and bordering on frustrated. Behind her can be seen a slinky Glameow teasing a perplexed looking Spheal, rubbing affectionately against the rounder Pokemon and then swatting him at random. A Jigglypuff keeps attempting to push its way onscreen, in front of Lust. She pushes Chanteuse away every few moments, with less and less gentle delicacy each time.]

Does anywhere know where to find any intimidating looking Pokemon? I have a children's carnival act following me everywhere I go now.

[It's ridiculous.]

Not that I don't appreciate them all, of course. [Another firm to shove to keep her Jigglypuff from blocking her] But I'd like to have something a bit more imposing to throw out in battle.

Or imposing at all.

[Forget philosophy and musings on the nature of her existence for a moment, she just wants anything that doesn't look like a stuffed animal come to life.]

[SERIOUSLY? And things have been going so well...]

What does he want with me? And how do you know about all of this?

I think he was under the impression that you and her had things in common. That's all.

[Suspiciously ignoring that second question...

But he thinks better of it after a moment.]

I've spoken to him before.

[And by "before" he means "had tea with him on Saturday" so, uh.]

Where would he get any impressions about me?

I assumed that much.

I don't know. It was a pretty stupid thing to assume on his part. He's aware that you're here and evidently got along with the other Lust, at least well enough to talk fondly about her.

[Hell if he knows why because honestly the other Lust sounds creepy as hell.]

It seemed reasonable to give you some sort of warning in the event he approaches you on the network at some point.

Well now. How fondly?

[Greed's certainly given her something to think about. And she'd agree with his impression of the other Lust.]

I appreciate the warning. I need to give this some consideration.

[...Legitimate realization that he has no idea what Archer's sexuality is.]

I couldn't tell you, to be honest. I believe he certainly enjoyed speaking to her but he didn't exactly indicate that the two of them were very close.

[When in doubt, assume they didn't sleep together!]

He may have changed his mind after I told him that you're nothing like her but I don't know that for certain.

I suppose that's one thing she and I have in common. Stimulating conversation.

I'll be prepared, if he does. Thank you.

I prefer you over her, that much I can say right now without ever having met her.

[Because that other Lust was incapable of understanding him. He's not even sure that the other Greed was capable of understanding him. ]

...One of these days, we won't have such a negative conversation. That's a promise.

We're the same, you and I. The ones from that other world, they're different.

[She doesn't know all the details, but she knows homunculi in that other world aren't the same as in her own.]

Mmm. Promises, promises. I'll hold you to it, you know.

They couldn't be more different than us.

For every problem I have... I think of them and know that I'm a person. We're not so different from humans. My time here has made me understand that to be a good thing. Dante did her best to make us think it was something impossible for us to understand, but she failed in that regard.

[He smiles.]

Good. It'll mean I keep being honest.

There's a reason we're called 'created humans'. Maybe we came into being differently, and our biology's a bit different, but we're still human in all the ways that matter. Her lies don't stand up to reality.

Honesty? What a novel concept.

No. Especially not now. She was a liar who wanted the Stone, but now we're here and free of her for good.

I've never been anything but honest my whole life. I've never even tried to lie.

[He'd probably be very bad at it considering how terrible he is at being anonymous.]
