Author's comment: More goofing around from yours truly. I was a bit pressed for time.


Give me a little space. Or maybe more than a little. I can spread out and fill more of this underground than the rest of you put together. Is it any wonder than that I need more personal space?

I need time to myself. Time for thinking. Time for watching. I can hear you snickering, Envy, and I think it'd be for the best if you shut your mouth. I can hear you. I know where you are, and I could make life very difficult for you if I felt like it.


I want to be close to you. I want to be distant from you. I want whatever I want, whenever I want it. I'll do what I need to to get it. I'll do what I need to to keep it.

Pride, I see you watching me! Don't think I don't know you're watching me! I'm not putting on a show for you! When I am, I'll let you know. You can watch when I want you to watch, but not now.


Humans...they like their space, right? But they also want to be close to others. Humans are so ridiculously contradictory. I can't even begin to fathom it.

Me? I don't need much space, but, well, everyone needs a moment or two of privacy. Sometimes I want to transform into someone or something just for the fun of it, without everyone else watching.

Huh? Other people's privacy? What do you mean I don't respect other people's privacy? C'mon, Greed! Why do you always have to give me a hard time other nothing? What's your problem?

That's it, I'm out of here.


I'm...almost always alone. Sometimes Pride comes.

Being alone is a bother...

Being together is a bother...

Whatever happens, happens...


I like having a moment or two to myself to primp and plan. Homunculi or human, maybe it's just one of those things that men don't really understand. Only a little time, not so much as to put a crimp in anyone's plans.

Oh, what, you want to come along, Gluttony? Okay, but only you. You're different.


I don't want to be alone. I want to go with Lust. But even Lust wants to be alone sometimes. Everyone needs to be alone sometimes. Lust says so, but I don't know.


There's an insufferable lack of space around here. Toadies beside me, family below, my wife or Selim. There is only one time I feel alone- in that purest of states- the one I enjoy most- the silence of my soul in the midst of one on one combat.

The walls around here don't keep out half the things I want them to.
