[Well that sure was a lizard Greed had just gotten. The suit he understood, even if technically it was meant for Ling (but hey, same body, same clothes). But a gecko? Well... he got why a gecko of all animals, but who in their right mind would give him a pet? Like hell he knew how to take care of one...

It took a few days, but eventually he decided that he should probably figure that bit out. Since even if it'd just come back, it seemed too mean even for him to let the critter starve to death. So he parked himself in front of a computer in the library.]

So, uh... does anyone know what these things eat? [Greed held up his gecko, who just stared blankly ahead.] Figured I shouldn't just ignore it, but I'm not exactly an expert when it comes to lizards. Or any animals.

Well... not normal animals anyway.

[ ...

For a few moments Madoka is quiet. Like she's contemplating something or trying to find out the true meaning behind his words. He's been talking to her now and before too, so it's not like he can be entirely unfriendly, right? And even if he's their boss, it would be hard to keep others at a distance like that, she's sure..

But.. on the other hand, she doesn't want to be rude and intrude on other people's personal matters. ]

Well... G-Greed-san, in that case.. I'm really glad you weren't entirely alone. I mean it.

[avartwice]

...heh. Sure, whatever.

[happyends]

Please continue trying your best, okay? And.. um, if you ever want some company in this place after all, you can always call me. I don't mind talking to people at all.

[avartwice]

You should worry more about yourself, kid. Trust me, I'll be perfectly fine.

Hell, I wouldn't mind some peace and quiet for a change. Not that that'll ever happen.

[ Hey, at least she'll trust him when he says that.. who would ever seem more like a responsible adult than Greed, right. (The answer is literally everyone.) ]

.. Ah, this place is pretty quiet though! I think, at least.. unless those weird shadows pop up again.

[avartwice]

For most people, probably. Afraid I'm not that lucky, though. I can't even get one moment to myself around here.

[happyends]

Really..? Wow, I didn't know you were that popular here already..! A lot of people must like you.

[ Completely misunderstanding it. ]

[avartwice]

Uh... sure, let's go with that.

[And he shrugs, because oh well, that's as good an explanation as any.]
