[ She raises a hand to brush back her hair, settling the slight puff, then resumes her cutting with careful determination. Even if he's acting the fool, she has no time to waste on pointless duels. ]

Of course. Such is the way of war, when anything might become a weapon.

[avaricious]

Some things never change. [He almost seems pleased by that. He's already decided she must be some kind of alien of some kind, which means the notion that other worlds are just bungled up as his own is refreshing.] By the way, the name is Greed.

[notkittenaround]

[ She doesn't find the name strange at all. One of her own might be considered stranger by another, and she's familiar with the oddities of the unknown. ]

Marhi Ohsi, or Metallic Gold Magpie. I answer to either.

[avaricious]

[Deadpan:] ... Metallic Gold Magpie, huh? I hope you didn't choose that for yourself.

[notkittenaround]

[ She slams the blade through the meat, with a dull thunk when it slices into the counter beneath. ]

It was given to me by those I consider family.

[avaricious]

[He has a good chuckle as he cuts up the next chunk of meat.]

I hope you plan on making them pay for that someday. Assuming you haven't already.

[notkittenaround]

Do you oft make your own family pay?

[ thunk thunk THUNK THUNK ]

[avaricious]

[His grin widens into something almost sadistic.]

I've been spitting in their eyes for as long as I can remember.

[notkittenaround]

I do not care for cruelty. Touch mine family, and with certainty I assure you - you will learn the lab well, after I have dragged your bleeding body into it for treatment.

[avaricious]

[Now this has him really laughing.]

Wow, really? Personally I don't give a damn about your family, but if it's a fight you want, I'm more than willing to oblige.

[notkittenaround]

[ She gives him a disdainful and rather unimpressed glance. ]

I want for nothing from you; it was a warning of what will happen. Were I interested in a duel of strength for fun, or elsewise, I would challenge someone I have interest in.

Have you finished preparing the meats?

[avaricious]

[He shrugs and gives one final chop before scooting the meat forward.]

It's all yours, darling. I just hope your sour attitude doesn't spoil the meat.
