[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.

Eh... I don't know about that.

But I'm not gonna throw it out, at any rate. Well, for now, at least.

Throwing it out shouldn't be an option, so good! What are you going to name him?

[ HIS NAME IS IMPORTANT! ]

video;

[avartwice]

Huh? I don't know. Do I seriously have to name the thing?

video;

[strawberrytart]

Of course you do! He likes you and has come to live with you, he deserves a name!

video;

[avartwice]

It's a lizard, I don't think it cares. But fine, whatever, I'll name it. Just gotta think of something...

[strawberrytart]

Lizards have names and feelings too! I'm sure he'd love to have one! You should think of something cute, hehe~

video;

[avartwice]

Yeah, I don't really do cute. But if you have any suggestions, feel free to share.

[strawberrytart]

You should call him Monsieur! Or Neapolitan!

video;

[avartwice]

[...well, he suddenly regrets ever asking.]

Uh. How about no.

What kind of names are those even supposed to be?

video;

[strawberrytart]

They're French!

[ And one's a dessert. ]

video;

[avartwice]

And what the hell is that?

video;

[strawberrytart]

It's the language of romance! "Monsieur" is mister, and Neapolitan is.. um, it's a puff pastry dessert with pastry cream and chocolate fondant icing~!

[avartwice]

It sounds ridiculous. And I'm not naming my lizard after food. If I seriously have to name it, it's getting an actual name.

video;

[strawberrytart]

Those are actual names.

[ Of course, Ichigo is used to Sweets Spirits from the Sweets Kingdom so their names were all things like Vanilla, Cafe, Mint, Chocolat, Caramel, Marron... ]

video;

[avartwice]

...please tell me you're joking.

video;

[strawberrytart]

Why would I be joking?

[ Her own name is strawberry ok ]

video;

[avartwice]

You're telling me you actually knew people with names like that?

video;

[strawberrytart]

Of course! There was Lemon-chan, Vanilla, Chocolat, Cafe, Caramel, Marron, the Jerks, Honey-sama...

video;

[avartwice]

...

[He regrets everything about this conversation.]

Yeah, you know what? Nevermind. I'll think of a name myself.

Re: video;

[strawberrytart]

And my name's Ichigo too! [ Which is strawberry....... ]

You don't like those types of names? I think they're cute.

video;

[avartwice]

Cute ain't really what I'm going for here. Besides, those names are more ridiculous than cute, if you ask me.

[He's really not good at naming stuff, though, ugh. At this rate he'll just stick with 'Lizard'.]
