Third Possession [Action/Voice]

[moremoremore]

[Action - for Housemates]

[Greed will be confronting his housemates during or after dinner with a singular goal in mind: to get them to go drinking with him that night.]

[Filtered to Edward Elric and Winry Rockbell]

Drinks tonight?

[Action/Voice]

[Greed spends the night drinking at Good Spirits, trying to find some cure for his boredom. And halfway through the night, he once he has a good buzz going on, he flips open his journal and addresses it.]

Hey. It's Greed. Anyone wanna join my gang?

Hey Ran Fan, is that for me?

[oftheyin]

No. [Blunt. Not even bothering to look at him as she pours herself a glass, ready to leave the room.]

[moremoremore]

[It has been a weird cold shoulder he's been getting from her, and after they had some kind of fun back at the beach.]

Well that's pretty thoughtless of you. But I prefer drinks of the alcoholic persuasion, anyway.

[oftheyin]

Then maybe you should make it yourself.

Now, if you would please excuse me. [Okay, can't be a complete bitch, gotta live with the guy.]

[moremoremore]

Whoa, hold up there Ran Fan. I still got something to ask you.

[oftheyin]

[She stops.]

What?

[moremoremore]

How about you come out for some drinks tonight?

[oftheyin]

[That annoys her more than it should.]

Why would I want to spend time with you?

[moremoremore]

[He blinks. Definitely a colder answer than he expected.]

We had fun at the beach, didn't we? I'm just trying to broaden your horizons to some new types of fun.

[oftheyin]

That was a mistake. We shouldn't be spending time together.

[moremoremore]

So you're telling me you accidentally hung out with me at the beach. Whatever happened to the whole bodyguard spiel?

[oftheyin]

I was wrong to say it, and I was wrong to allow any friendship between the two of us.

[moremoremore]

Uhh... what the hell did I do for that?

[oftheyin]

[Really glaring at him now.] I don't like being treated like an object, and I don't like being used.

[moremoremore]

Yeah, I still don't get it. You're the one who insisted on being my bodyguard. How could I "use" you for anything when you volunteered?

[oftheyin]

I thought I was doing you a favor and doing something to make Ling happy. I didn't know I was just helping along with your plan. A plan I want nothing to do with.

[moremoremore]

I haven't been planning shit.

[oftheyin]

That's not what I heard.

[moremoremore]

Honesty's my policy, Ran Fan. If you heard anything from that skunk Envy, you shouldn't believe it.

[oftheyin]

I haven't heard anything from Envy. It was those trees that wouldn't shut up.

[moremoremore]

Oh. The trees. The hell did they say about me?

[oftheyin]

They said that you... [This is really difficult to say.] They said that you're interested in me.

[moremoremore]

Huh? I'd say you're a pretty interesting person. But I don't have anything planned for you at all. Aside from generally making sure that my friends get what they want.

[oftheyin]

Well, I don't want you. You already know my feelings, and I'll ask you to respect them.

[moremoremore]

It's disrespectful to see if I can give you a hand with Ling? Because that's all I've been doing. I don't want you for myself. ...Once I tune out my general urge to want everything around me, that is.
