Lust was getting angrier since Greed was obviously dodging the question. "I don't have my sin, it doesn't make me stupid. It doesn't matter if you got kidnapped. You would have felt it anywhere in the world! So WHY didn't you!?" the black goo she could let go for now, she was disoriented without her lustyness and maybe the black came from that. Maybe. But the other thing she was not letting go till she got some answers.
-------
"Because its the epicenter of this country. It zapped me of my greed." His failing was the fact that he didn't seem at all disturbed by that little detail. He'd not known about it until Wrath told him. He sighed and slouched in her grip. "It was horrible."
-------
Lust narrowed her eyes, this was some epic bullshit coming out of Greed's mouth. "You were kidnapped. Taken to the epicenter of the country. And it zapped you of your greed. So you couldn't feel my death." she smiled a little too sweetly, "Poor baby." she tilted her head as if wondering, "Who was it that kidnapped you?"
------
"Seriously," he nodded his head up and down. "I thought I was dying." That wasn't a lie. What he was tip-toeing through was the who. Zoe's name still lingered on the tip of his tongue, ready to bounce right out of his mouth. "Wrath told me about this place. You know...I didn't even see Oz. So disappointing." Because that was his biggest gripe. He was well aware there was no such thing, but his fanciful mind had envisioned it anyway.
--------
Lust's grip tightened, "You thought you were dying? I was actually dying!" she shook him as hard as she could, "Wrath told you about this place? You just said you were kidnapped a minute ago! Now either you were kidnapped and need to tell me by who. Or you went there by yourself while I was dying in a box." and that was not Lust's happy face..
-------
"I was!" He squeaked. "Blindfolded, held at knifepoint, the whole nine yards. It was like my life just flashed before my eyes." Now he was just baiting her in order to avoid the question.
-------
Lust wished she had her full strength because she would have lifted Greed up off the ground. "By. Who." she repeated. She was not letting go till she was satisfied. He knew that about her.
------
"A girl---" he started laughing not really knowing why. He was just digging his hole and throwing dirt all over his head as he went. There was something about this situation that was funny at the moment. He should have been at Lust's feet. Kissing them.
------
Lust was not amused, "A girl.. does she have a name?" he was lying through his teeth but honestly at this point she just wanted to see how far he'd take this.
------
"Can't remember. It's all a blur. She was hot. I remember that." His laughter stopped but his grin stayed. "Everything is kind of dark," he waved his hand in the air, in a way making a jab at Lust herself for being selfish enough to take a vacation in Satan's box. He couldn't be considerate of that, it had made him angry. Leaving him all alone.
------
Lust smiled, "Really?" she watched his face and then those green eyes settled on his and it was like she could see right through him. Those were not the eyes of Greed. Oh he was in there but there was something else in there as well. So he had been in a place where his powers were negated, taken by a woman. The only woman that came to mind was... her eyes stayed uncomfortably boring into his, she hadn't even blinked, "Was she a mortal by any chance?" that sweet smile on her lips suggesting that she might have an idea of who it was. Or even better, she didn't care who it was. She knew he had a weak spot and if he wanted to behave this way she would exploit it. He wasn't sorry for missing her death. Ungrateful bastard. She'd make him sorry.
