My appetite is gone...

[ She gives him a surprised look. ]

I didn't think I'd see ya so angry.

[housewolf]

I'm not angry.

[He's pretty sure about that.]

I'm just... swearin' more than normal.

[fluffier]

... Ya can't control what ya say?

[housewolf]

Not right now. Can't cook shit either.

[fluffier]

Can't cook?!

[ wait ]

I lost my appetite too... Are we bein' punished?

[housewolf]

For what? I didn't make a huge fuckin' mess.

[fluffier]

Uhh. [ wow he really is mad ] Maybe yer not indulgin' enough?

[housewolf]

I'm damn sure I've been doing enough.

[fluffier]

Is it all specific to yer tattoo?

[housewolf]

It's envy- so... yeah. Think I should be branchin' out?

[fluffier]

Maybe... I ain't done anything for anyone other than Gluttony.

[ She looks puzzled for a moment. ]

What kinda stuff do ya do fer Envy?

[housewolf]

Markin' people up. Kissing in front of other people, makin' other people jealous. That kinda stuff.

. . .

[fluffier]

[ cool she is blushing ]

I... I see. Yer pretty honest.

[housewolf]

... It's envy...

[He is a little bit embarrassed, even.]

[fluffier]

Uh huh... So yer not shy about... kissin'and talkin' about it?

[housewolf]

...? I didn't tell you who I kissed.

[fluffier]

But it was another person, wasn't it?

[ unless... ]

[housewolf]

... It's hard fulfillin' envy alone.

[fluffier]

[ She's silent for a moment, looking conflicted before she just asks, ] How'd ya do that anyway? Ya just ask someone to do stuff with ya?

[housewolf]

Yeah, pretty much. Or they ask you.

We're all here for things we want, so we can't- I can't afford to be shy.

[fluffier]

That's true.

[ She accepts this.




For about five seconds. ]

But what if they say no? Or they say yes but ya change yer mind? Ahhh, it's too embarrassin'!

[housewolf]

[There's a very short pause.]

Are you interested?

[fluffier]

[ Way to cut to the chase... But she crosses her arms, giving the question due consideration. ]

Interested... Maybe curious? I never had time for a boyfriend back home, so it never crossed my mind. Ya know?

[housewolf]

[This place isn't the time to be coy. Still, he's quite relaxed about Yuel's answer.]

Yeah, I get it. Relationships aren't for everybody, and not everyone is comfortable with hookups.

There's no real reason to force yourself.
