You've reached Lust. I'm not available at the moment, please leave a message.

If it's important enough, I'll get back to you.

[Envy scoots more until he's actually sitting next to her, crosslegged with his hands on his ankles. Awkwardly, but there all the same. Being close to people is a thing that he's learned sometimes helps.]

That was back home, right? It might turn out different here.

[She leans against him, just barely. She's grateful for his presence.]

It was back home. We haven't had much luck here, either. We agreed to just ignore each other. But then we don't. And we argue and fight and bait each other nearly every time we speak.

[He's quiet for a long moment.]

But here there's time. And a chance.

[The kind of chance that none of them ever had back in Amestris. Envy might dislike Scar even more now, and he doesn't really want Lust to get hurt because of this...but it's her decision in the end.]

You don't have to figure it out right now, do you?

[a_sin_for_him]

Maybe.

[It doesn't feel like it. Nothing ever changes. Not really. They'd had one nice meeting, but that was all. And it was fuzzy and hazy and made no difference once it was gone.]

What will more time do? But I suppose you're right.

[Not that she'll stop thinking on it.]

[exeggutorhead]

You'd be surprised.

[He nudges his shoulder against hers, lightly.]

When I first got here, I wound up having to travel with a pair of humans. I needed their help or I would've probably wound up dead in the woods, and they let me stick around because I was useful. We couldn't stand each other, we never stopped arguing.

They're...gone, now. But by the time they vanished they were my best friends.

[The immediate responses that come to mind aren't ones she wants to voice. That it's different, that there's too much history between them. But she knows Envy's trying to make her feel better.]

Who knows.
