Here's the problem - we've already got a comms guy. Blue fuzzy kid - kind of a pushover. He's already got the job down. But you, Mickey - well, you're something special. We could get some really good use out of someone doing intel.

[Intel like... existing around the ship and just observing when no one else can see. It's the kind of thing that Greed needs. To make sure no one is plotting against him.]

[nerdeology]

[Yeah, he knew it.

HOW SUSPICIOUS

You are being sketchy as heck, Greed.

And now someone else is calling him Mickey. Why does he always end up with the nicknames!?]

[avaricious]

We've been kidnapped by aliens. We gotta use every angle we got, right?

[It's for the greater good, Mickey. Go with him on this.]

[nerdeology]

[He does not believe you in the slightest.

WE'LL SEE

Nooooot making any promises.]

[avaricious]

[Greed is only out for the greater good. Somehow no one ever believes that. The greater good is Greed getting everything he wants, okay.

Still, he shrugs.]

That other guy you were talking to - he's Ling. Seeing as the kid could sense your presence, there might be others who can. Anyone managed to pick you out yet?

[nerdeology]

[Hmm. So far the prospects are not looking great. ...Or they are looking great, probably, from Greed's perspective.

UNDYNE CAN SEE ME

The rest, he's not sure about just yet.]

[avaricious]

Her, huh? [She was scaly, but she hadn't struck him as anything special. Just a pretty wild chimera. Still... he was less concerned about her.]

Hope she didn't try to filet you.

[nerdeology]

[Hah... he'd kind of expected her to, though. Apparently even hellion-looking creatures can surprise you.

SHE'S OKAY]

[avaricious]

She's mouthy as hell, but she's a lady after my own heart. Glad to hear you get on well.

[Believe or not, but he doesn't want discord among the ranks.]

[nerdeology]

[He would have believed that if you hadn't punched him like two minutes ago.

ANYONE DANGEROUS?

Since you're talking, he might as well brace himself. Again, because punching happened.]

[avaricious]

[He chuckles.]

Besides me? Not really. The bearded guy has the whole warrior monk vibe going, but he'd rather bore you with talks of peace than do anything about it. That new girl has some neat water powers going, but she's too loony to do anything about it.

[And that really are the only two notables ones outside of Undyne as far as he's concerned.]

[nerdeology]

[He has a feeling he'll have to judge for himself when he gets around to meeting them.

WATER POWERS?]

[avaricious]

She controls water. First day on the ship she sucked it right out of the shower.

[It was a whole thing. And it was terrible.]

Which I was using at the time.

[nerdeology]

[He did that with Sorey, actually. When he was like, ten, it was hilarious.

TWO OF US, THEN

Aren't you lucky, Greed? So much watery potential.]

[avaricious]

So that's what that was, huh? So now we've got two wet ones.

[Guess we're just doing double everything on this ship.]

[nerdeology]

[Phrasing, dude.

WILL TRY TO KEEP IT IN CHECK

He'd kind of like to avoid making waves (literal or metaphorical) with his new crew.]

[avaricious]

Good. [Greed stands up, seemingly satisfied with this conclusion.]

I'd tell ya to keep a low profile, but that seems to come natural to you.

[He turns back to the pinball machine. Apparently the conversation is over, because he won't actually be able to read anything now.]

[nerdeology]

[Well, brief and awkward as it was, at least they accomplished something. Mikleo stays and watches the game for a little bit longer - because it is interesting - before wandering off. Still need to check out the rest of the crew.]
