Who: Greed and Lust Where: Out and about. A bar? Then from there who knows! Mischief! When: Sunday night, June 21, 2012 What: Time for Greed to meet back up with his other favorite Sin. Warnings: Just flirting
The glasses perched on his nose perfectly, looking stylish against his fresh, new suit. He liked taking his "church" money and putting it to good use. He was supposed to be out getting something for Lust, but it was easy for his quick eyes to become distracted. He eventually cornered the sales clerk into telling him what it was she liked in sexy evening wear. She gave him lots of choices and he took all of them, flashing cash and plastic. By the time he left the high end shopping district of New York they had to kick him out. He forgot that places closed early on Sundays, which was a complete shame. Corporations had become a little more lofty with their hours, but it was still too early for Greed to be happy with.
He sent Lust at least a dozen boxes and bags to pick from. They were all his favorites, so anything she chose to slink into would be fab. At least the bars were still open late. It was the perfect night to raise some hell and show himself off. Swipe a few purses, wallets and a free drink. It's like a text adventure, except with midgets. Ads by Project Wonderful!

When Lust received the bags from Greed it was like a kid in a candy store. There were so many slinky and sultry dresses to choose from it took her hours to decide which she wanted to wear first. She'd end up taking half a dozen dresses with her just be able to wear more than one. With all her excitement of receiving such fabulous gifts she had entirely forgotten about getting anything for Greed. But really, she could come up with something much better than a new suit or shoes for him. Lust had much more to offer than material possessions.
Lust arrived at the bar, dressed spectacularly and in a very good mood. After flirting with the bartender she earned herself a free drink and then turned, slipping at her winnings and even though she spotted Greed she didn't move to greet him. Yet.
Greed was busy entertaining himself with a group. He'd already gotten two free drinks out of it, but as always he wanted to try what everyone else was having. He liked his own things, but the temptation of what someone else had to offer was top priority. He grinned wide, showing off that incredible smile of pearly whites.
He'd been so busy under his own nose that he hadn't felt Lust yet, but every other person she waltzed by felt a shudder.
Lust had no difficulty getting things. Many times people simply gave her things without even having to ask. She felt truly blessed. Slowly she walked toward a group of men, her smile contagious but deadly. After some casual chatting and flirting she had received several more drinks; she couldn't very well turn them down. That would be rude and Lust liked making a good impression. Sin or not, all mortals deserved lust in their lives.
She traded out her first drink for another, blew the man a kiss and then headed to where Greed was entertaining another group of mortals. She took her spot opposite him, sipping and quietly watching for now.
They drew people in like flies to honey. They were seductive in all the things they could offer. As Lust watched, Greed worked his magic, a natural at taking people's things. Robin Hood couldn't even compare with how easily Greed slipped things into his pocket. His first victim was a cute girl in a red dress who had her hands all over his new tie. The bracelet on the end of her wrist was even more enticing, because with Lust in the same room, she didn't have the same appeal as his sister Sin.
The bracelet was pocketed, another drink in his hand as he pretended to be suave and nice. Then his eyes glittered toward the figure in one of his dresses and he perked, his grin growing.
Lust raised her glass to him when he finally noticed her. Took him long enough. She ignored those around her who were trying to talk to her, for a moment considering bringing down her powers a notch, but what fun was there in that? When Greed did look at her she finally turned to a young woman who had been standing shyly at her elbow. Lust was not extremely picky, and she enjoyed women as much as she did men. And this little peach was quite pretty. If Greed was lucky enough he'd find himself in the backroom with both of them.
Lust lead the woman over to Greed, looking very mischievous. "This is Julia." Lust's dark eyes seemed to flash red as she looked at the young woman again. In the few moments that she had spoken with this girl Lust had managed to bring out a side of Julia that had rarely ever been seen. She felt so proud. She snagged a drink as it went by, not caring at all that it wasn't hers because she could do whatever she pleased.
Greed shoved his glasses back up his nose, eyeing Julia with the same excitement as Lust. Except Lust made it look so sleek. His plump lips spread thinner. "Is this my present?" He asked happily. He teased Julia with a suave smile. With Lust in the same room, like it usually was with Gluttony, sometimes the line between them all ran thin. There was room for overlap.
And Greed was no slouch in looks. He was an attractive man.
