WHO: Greed & Lust
WHEN: Friday
WHERE: Lust's apartment
WHAT: Making the most of a bad situation
WARNING: Sins


Lust was half way between pouting and angry when she arrived home. Like most of the sins, with time she let go of her moodiness over Wrath's shenanigans, it did not mean she had by any means forgiven her sister Sin or her Dickslayer but when it wasn't in front of her, Lust tended to forget. And it was just so much more fun spending that time on herself instead. It did annoy her that Greed didn't seem to be giving her 100% of his attention lately but she had Ambrosia to distract her to make up for his oversight. Until today of course when she ran into Jack and he decided to play a game that Lust did not enjoy.

"Greeeeeeed!" she whined out when she came in the door, looking upset. And it was easy to see why. A knife had sliced across Lust's collarbone, deep enough that drops of blood spilled from it. Ruining her clothes which also had a cut on the side. Her fingertips were coated in the junk as well since she'd smeared it on her chest when she'd been trying to assess the damage. She was highly annoyed, she just got her body back to perfect after the whole killing Satan and Lucifer thing and then this happens!

Greed was plugged into xbox when Lust came in the door. His handheld gun was aimed toward the t.v. shooting at zombies or some other digital land he'd thrown himself into. When Lust called out he whipped ariubd shooting off the toy gun just as he spotted Lust.

"What?" He cried out, noticing the blood. He looked confused, eyeing the tip of his gun, then her and back again. Had he just done that?

[bedroom-hymns.insanejournal.com]

Lust huffed, stupid boys and their stupid games, "Look at this!" and she gestured at the wound, her face turning into a pout as she stalked over to him. All she wanted to do was huff and whine because looooook at iiiiit! She was practically disfigured.

that autocorrect was supposed to say 'around'

[better-than.insanejournal.com]

He pointed the gun again with a shot with no results. He fingered the wound before annoyance threw him. "What happened?" He shrieked. That was going to scar a little. Who had marred his Lust?

I figured it out! I'm a genius. o_o

[bedroom-hymns.insanejournal.com]

Lust was two seconds away from slapping that stupid toy gun out of his hand but finally he started paying attention to her. She flopped down on the couch and did a big wince when he fingered the wound though it just stung a little now. It would scar for a few days and then she'd be fine but that wasn't the point! "This idiot was waiting for me outside of Ambrosia. Full of sex and violence and he kept calling me his mom and then there was fog and he pulled a knife and he did thiiiiis." she threw her head back on the sofa and kicked her feet a little.

[better-than.insanejournal.com]

Greed followed her to the couch, flopping down nearly on top of her. "Well why did he do that?" He took a half soiled napkin from his empty pizza box and tried to dab at the wound. It was more like abrasive sandpaper than a soft cotton swab.

[bedroom-hymns.insanejournal.com]

Lust smacked his hand away with both of hers, "Don't use something dirty, that hurts!" Ugh, Greed was horrible at taking care of things, she had to practically tell him how to do it. "Use something soft." she directed before slipping back into a pout, "He likes to play a sick game. I mean, who doesn't enjoy some pain with their pleasure but this was just taking it too far. He didn't even pay. Just assumed that I'd be willing for him." she stuck out her bottom lip and looked down as if trying to look at the wound, "Now I'm all ugly and no one will want me.."

[better-than.insanejournal.com]

Greed eyed her scar as if it were a caterpillar crawling up her face. He didn't have anything else lying around, so he licked his thumb and ran it over the dried blood, only managing to smear it. Lust would never be ugly especially to Greed. He wanted the scar to go away, but he was still too engrossed in himself.

"Maybe that means you need a vacation from work," he touted , getting up and running off to the bathroom. He came back with a handful of towels and the first aid kit. After pouring the towels in her lap he shuffled in the kit finding anything that looked like antiseptic that might clean her up. He had to make his Lust shiny and pretty again.

[bedroom-hymns.insanejournal.com]

Lust smirked and scratched Greed under his chin when he got back, "You just want me all to yourself.." but she enjoyed the idea. Not that it'd ever happen but she wanted Greed to want her. He wasn't wanting her enough in her opinion.

She shoved the towels off her lap and then peeked in the first aid kit and pointed at the antiseptic, lord knows she'd used it enough on him and Glutt when they got into literal scrapes. She widened her eyes at Greed expectantly and then moved her finger up and down in front of her top as if to silently tell him to take it off. He should have been doing that in the first place whether she was injured or not.

[better-than.insanejournal.com]

"Maybe," he scoffed like a child endlessly rummaging through the kit until he had the right stuff. He read over the label and then spritzed the bloody area. "Oh," when she reminded him of her shirt he climbed onto the couch and pulled it over her head, looking to be sure there were no more scratches for him to fix. He spritzed the cleaner again and wiped away the blood.

[bedroom-hymns.insanejournal.com]

Lust winced when he cleaned her up and she was more angry and upset than she was in pain. She put her hand on the side of Greed's neck and was half serious as she asked, "Maybe? You don't want me now?" she lowered her gaze, "Maybe I'm not pretty enough for you...?" that part she was teasing because hell look at her but whatever to get attention from him. She was way more interesting than a video game.

[better-than.insanejournal.com]

When he was done Greed looked at his handiwork with pride. As good as new....mostly. The cut would heal, but it didn't mean he was happy about it. He hadn't been giving her his attention lately for his own mopey moods. She was all he had right now.

As Lust dropped her gaze he pouted. She spent all her time at Ambrosia and now wanted him to pet her ego? Rude. He wiped off his hands on his jeans so he could grab her face. "If you want a fuck just ask for it, don't guilt trip me." Oddly enough he just hadn't been in the mood these last few weeks. It made this relationship with Zoe a bigger problem for Lust. When Greed pouted, the things he liked felt lost. He took this all pretty personal.

[bedroom-hymns.insanejournal.com]

Lust could get mad, easily get mad, and she had every right to get mad. But she didn't. Greed liked to forget that no matter blasted toy he had going on, only Lust knew him really well. And there was more than one way to skin a cat.

She didn't flinch when he grabbed her face, but there was hurt in her eyes that didn't need to be invented. "I've never had to ask.." she said quietly. And why should she, he'd always wanted her. Until recently. Until new shiny things took his attention.

True, she'd been going to Ambrosia but he knew if the situation was reversed, he'd have dumped her too. He was being a buzzkill and they were excess, they weren't designed for being down. But she moved back to get out of his hold and then reached into her bag and pulled out a cellphone. He knew what hers looked like and it wasn't hers but she held it out to him.

[better-than.insanejournal.com]

It was this battle of who feels worse. Greed was determined to be the sympathy puppy here. However, Lust's drawn down face made his own pout grow. "Lust..." he whined. She was leaving him alone when he didn't need it, he wasn't going to....

She pulled out a phone and he eyed her warily. "What's that for?"

[better-than.insanejournal.com]

Lust was distracting him. Her teeth raking down his skin made him bite his lower lip. He had to double cross his words in his head before speaking, feeling Lust's influence shoot his pulse up. "No, that wasn't what I meant!" He covered the microphone with his other hand growling at Lust. She knew he wouldn't be able to resist her squirming all over him. Zoe or not, Lust brought out the hunger in him. It was an insatiable taste.

[bedroom-hymns.insanejournal.com]

Lust smiled like a cat when he growled at her. She rested her chin on his shoulder and batted her lashes at him innocently. What? He could keep talking, she wasn't stopping him. Oh but his mouth was right there and he was always so yummy so she couldn't resist giving him a kiss, phone or not. Did he really need his mouth to talk..

Zoe frowned a little, "Everything okay?" he sounded.. distracted. Which really for Greed was normal. She was pretty sure it wouldn't take more than a gum wrapper to distract him.

[better-than.insanejournal.com]

Kissing Lust was a snare that was hard to pull back from. The entanglement with her mouth lasted longer than he expected, his lips tingling from the taste, frozen as he tried to speak. "Yeah, Zoe sorry just a little distracted." He pulled all his attention to her voice. He hung on longer. "Talk to me," he said softly, hiding the shudder in his voice. He may not have said it, but he missed her.

[bedroom-hymns.insanejournal.com]

Zoe started to say if he wanted, she could talk to him another time (despite him being the one who called her) but she was glad when he said for her to talk to him. She let out a deep sigh as she tried to think of something, all she really wanted to say was she missed him. So instead she said, "Well, I think my going to fail my theology course if I argue with my professor about sins one more time."

Lust was annoyed, the good news was he didn't fight her kiss, the bad news was he didn't continue it. Ugh, he was taking forever. She put her head on his shoulder nuzzling his neck and moved her hand down his stomach to his belt, undoing it with one hand. He was gonna end this call one way or another.

[better-than.insanejournal.com]

"Arguing with your professor? How sweet. Must mean I'm on your mind..." He boasted a big laugh, fully aware of Lust's movements. This was part of that wanting his cake and eating it too. He'd known Lust wouldn't just hand over the phone without digging her paws in.

[bedroom-hymns.insanejournal.com]

Zoe smiled, "Yes, it's very sweet that I'm going to fail my class. And don't get excited, it only happened to come up because of that painting that's on loan at the museum. Which we could go see. And by that I of course mean separately. I could see it today and you could see it tomorrow and tell me about how upset you are at being painted so ugly." since they weren't allowed to see each other lest they be filled with stabby things and Zoe was fond of living.

Lust rolled her eyes, the conversation was not only boring but gross. She wasn't paying attention because she was undoing his pants like opening a christmas gift. She gave him a look and the tips of her fingers brushed against the band of his boxers and then like a snake, her entire hand disappeared inside. And if he could still form coherent sentences after that then she'd really have lost her touch.

[better-than.insanejournal.com]

"Did they?" His voice squeaked when warm fingers curled around him. Articulating any group of words took some time. His lashes laid low against his cheeks, eyes completely wrapped around Lust.

[bedroom-hymns.insanejournal.com]

Zoe frowned, he normally only squeaked like that when she squeezed him too tight. "Are you okay..? What're you up to?"

Lust knew what Greed liked and she knew how to work him just right, her hand touched him in that way she always did to draw him out. Slow.. teasing.. and building him towards an orgasm that would blow his mind. He did remember those, right? Because of his bad mood, they hadn't spent as much time in this area as she'd have liked. But she wanted to remind him of exactly what he had been missing. Sure his shiny mortal could talk, but she couldn't do this and Lust knew it.

[better-than.insanejournal.com]

"I'm okay," his eyes watered a bit because talking anymore would be impossible now, which was what Lust wanted. With that kind of desire pumping through his veins Zoe was the last thing on his mind. "Something came up. I'll call you again." He cleared his throat with each stroke. Lust wanted him to make a mess of this.

[bedroom-hymns.insanejournal.com]

Zoe was a little surprised, and kinda stung but.. he was a busy guy. "Oh. Yeah, I--" but he'd already hung up. She hated how disappointed she felt and looked at her phone, "I miss you." she said quietly and tossed it to the side, grabbing the pillow he despised instead.

Lust did want him to mess it up and felt smug when he hung up. She swung a leg over him to straddle his lap and had sex with him since he was ready to go. Could he really complain about getting to see heaven with Lust? And since she'd been nice and he got to talk to his toaster, now he had to make it up to Lust for being horrible to her. So they did something they hadn't done in a long time, they went to Echo to see what and who they could play with. Since they were an incredibly attractive couple, more than a few heads turned their way. Lust grinned and put her arms around Greed's middle, saying in his ear, "Just like old times, baby." as a couple of girls were eyeing him already.

[better-than.insanejournal.com]

It had been so long he should have forgotten what it was like. He'd selfishly kept himself from Lust because he wanted to pout, making her cater to his mood swings. She had been right. If left alone he'd have been on that phone the entire night, probably have skipped out of the house in some way to see his toaster---and he couldn't do that. In a way Lust had kept him again from walking straight into a fire, no matter how horribly wrong it was to do.

The sexual encounter on the couch had been enough to fire up his senses, so taking him out took little effort. He was already excited. He cleaned up nicely (as did Lust) falling back into their usual pattern. Zoe had clipped away the Sin layers to reveal a Greed Lust wasn't used to, hell a Greed he wasn't used to. He wanted to break a few rules again, it was who he really was no matter how much was peeled back.

Greed smirked at her taunts. The girls were pretty, a set of sister blondes just begging for attention. One looked in his direction, biting on her lower lip. She was sizing him up without saying a word. He needed to flex his muscles. He'd spent too long not shooting off his influence.

[bedroom-hymns.insanejournal.com]

This was what Lust wanted him to remember. The sex, the fun, the destruction of other people, it was what they did. It was what he always loved to do. It was fine to have a new favorite toy but it didn't mean you gave up your hobbies.

Lust spied the blondes looking their way and smirked, "Ripe for the picking.. I bet you barely need to do any work at all." and she patted his butt as she gave him a light shove towards the girls. Now he could get something new and shiny, several new and shinies if he wanted, and forget about Zoe.
