[ #15 ] New Job

[handsforhealing]

It looks like I got a job as a waitress. Just in time for summer too. At least now I can stay busy. I know I can't be the only one though. Is anyone else working at the "Fast Food" place? It'd be nice if we all knew each other, just in case we need someone to cover a shift or something, right?

Oh, and hey, Envy~?
Wanna come over for a bit?
I promise, it'll be really quick, okay? ♥ I'll even bake a pie or something.
Be sure to ring the doorbell so I can (take aim and throw a wrench) let you in, okay? Thanks!

Why would you lie about something like that? Why do you try to make yourself sound like such a terrible person?

[covets-humanity.livejournal.com]

Try? Try? I'm not trying. To humans, I AM terrible! There's no trying involved!

I'm the cruelest and worst of all your enemies!

[wontjustwait.livejournal.com]

Well, I won't argue that you're not an entirely good person. .

But just now, you weren't terrible at all. I mean, you even offered to let me hit you for all of the stuff you did... You didn't seem that bad until you started talking about being bad.

...

I get it now--The thing between you and Beansprout. You're both the same.

[wontjustwait.livejournal.com]

...

What's that supposed to mean?

[covets-humanity.livejournal.com]

You both sugarcoat everything, you're both impossible to control, and...

You both see right through me.

What's the point? After he saw through me, I've gotten soft--no, I'm broken. No need to be in denial anymore. You both are what I want to be and have the most and, because of that, are what I hate the most.

[wontjustwait.livejournal.com]

Come on. I'll stop pestering you. And I wasn't lying about the pie. You did come for that, didn't you?

[covets-humanity.livejournal.com]

...Actually, I came to not be suspicious because, like I said, I'm kind of trying to not give Beansprout reasons to beat the shit out of me.

But, sure.

There's one thing, though.

[wontjustwait.livejournal.com]

Hm? Yeah, what is it?

[covets-humanity.livejournal.com]

Don't stop thinking we're enemies--not for even a second.

You'll only get killed that way. Or worse.

[wontjustwait.livejournal.com]

I don't intend to. If Ed and Al say is true, you've done terrible things. I have no reason to forgive that.

But while we're here, we need to cooperate.

[covets-humanity.livejournal.com]

Cooperate, huh? With Pride here, that'll be easier said than done, toots.

[wontjustwait.livejournal.com]

... Just eat for now. I've got more questions for later.

[covets-humanity.livejournal.com]

Yeah, yeah. I'll eat. I swear you're scarier than Beansprout.

[wontjustwait.livejournal.com]

... By the way. You're not a friend of Mr.Kimbley, are you?

[covets-humanity.livejournal.com]

I don't do the whole 'friend' thing, but even I hate his guts.

[wontjustwait.livejournal.com]

So then those other homunculus Ed mentioned aren't your friends either?

[covets-humanity.livejournal.com]

Homunculi don't have friends. That group we're told to call 'family' is nothing to me.

[wontjustwait.livejournal.com]

A family? Do you have brothers or sisters, or a mom or dad or something?

[covets-humanity.livejournal.com]

Brothers, a sister, and Father.

They're only that in name, though. There is no love amongst the homunculi. It's no family. I'm the only one that seems to know that.

...

Well, maybe Greed, too, but screw him.
