The greedbaby's birthday

[avidita]

Mun, I don't think I'm asking for much here. It's only access to your bank account. I am your favorite, so don't you think you owe me that much?

...Hmph, well, it was worth a try.

Regardless, I expect to be treated well today. I know you're a sadist, despite the protests you make, so none of that. And.... get Reborn.

You know why.

Now excuse me, I have something important to do.

["Something important" means putting a very tiny party hat on Fantasma. Listen, don't judge their life.]

[ Slinking around casually and stoic, possibly having been hiding behind of something for some time, is none other then Reborn.

Holding in one hand a bar of Mammon's favourite chocolate, the other holds a small carton of strawberry milk to his mouth, noisily and annoyingly slurping through the straw... Possibly, more than likely, trying to get Mammon's attention.

I mean why else would he just happen to show up with two things he knows Mammon to enjoy? ]

Ciaossu Viper.

[Oh. Oh. They see how it goddamn is.]

[It’s hard to tell what their eyebrows are doing beneath their hood, but there’s no denying that sulky little pout on their lips.]

If you haven’t come to give me any decent birthday gifts in the form of cash, then I can only assume you’re here to demonstrate you’re just as full of bad taste as you’ve always been since we first met.

[Don’t make them come over there and kick you in the shins.]

[ Using the tip of the 5-yen chocolate bar to push his fedora an inch or so upwards in a kind of half-arsed hat tip, finishing off the milk drink swiftly. His brow cocked, smokey teal eyes as sharp as darts, grinning with a glint as he tuts his tongue off the back of his teeth. ]

Greedy as ever huh Viper? Would have been nice to see you'd change with age neh. Like a fine wine or cigar.

[ He was going to give Mammon the chocolate bar... Maybe to add insult to injury he should only give him half. The smaller half at that.

Walking closer, despite knowing Mammon couldn't care less about wasting his time with small talk, riddles or whatever mockery Reborn had to offer- Still, it was nice to see an old friend on their birthday, even an estranged one at that.

Bopping the top of Mammon's hooded head with the chocolate bar before holding it out for the other to take. ]

Scusa...

[ Turning his trouser pockets inside out, cheeky grin painted perfectly over his lips. ]

... I spent all I had on me on those treats for you. How unfortunate.

[avidita]

Hmph. I haven’t changed in that aspect for decades now. Why would I ever start?

[Besides, they’re more than fine as they are. The Varia gives them an obnoxious paycheck, they get their own little facilities, and they work with assholes who thus don’t expect them to be anything different.]

[Also they don’t have to deal with any of the other Arcobaleno more than necessary, and they’re sure Reborn understands when it comes to people like Verde and Skull.]

[Warily, they watch him approach, expecting more jokes and teasing. They’re not entirely wrong, and the pout only gets more intense as he bops them on the head before they greedily snatch the candy bar out of his hand.]

Ha! More like if you’ve spent all your money on something, it’s some of those garish costumes.

[But they seem a bit happier as they pick away at the candy wrapper. It’s as close to playful talk as they get.]
