_{((OOC: It works, no worries! 8D ))}

[Tugging at the white scarf around her throat, Dee's expression lights up as she spots just the person she's looking for. She waves excitedly as she jogs up.]

So this is Lucky. Hey there, boy. [She crouches down to get a better look. Glancing up, she meets Greed's gaze and just grins.] Good to see you. And yes, I've been there. It always keeps me busy.

_{((OOC: It's no problem. I was actually just worrying about you. XD; Dee is kind of impromptu inviting someone over but both muse and mun wanted feedback on the idea...?]}

Always? [Cue nostalgia. Shaking her head, she reaches over to scratch Lucky behind the ears.] Hmm. But the weather is strange...

[She gets up, dusting off her coat.] My Ronmeer is a fish, so he's not much good on land, poor guy. Oh! [Holding up a finger as she remembers something, she turns to Greed.] There was someone else in the town back there who needed company. He said if we all traveled together, it'll be easier for when we get hurt. I wanted to talk to you about it first. [She grins a bit.] Since you invited me and all.

((ooc: sorry for the late reply, had to run some errands and then got caught talking to an old friend for hours XD; I needed to add, yes I am so more than fine with Derek joining in XD; I just fail sometimes.))

[Greed cocks his head at her. He doesn't know why, but he feels a bit at ease with her. He doesn't dwell on it long. Lucky sniffs at her curiously and then breaks out in a ridiculous doggie smile, tongue hanging lopsided from his mouth. Greed seems pleased that Lucky likes their new company.]

Heh, busy is right. Amestris and people there've always been like that fer as long as I remember. So, you got one of these things too? Mine c'n breath fire. He don't much like this weather though.

[Greed cracks a smile and adjusts his shades. More people already? This was almost better than he could've hoped. Having a new circle of people was of the utmost importance to him right now.]

Hey, th' more the merrier, as far as I'm concerned. An' considerin' I'm mortal now, someone who knows how t' take care of humans would be mighty useful. What's he call himself?

[Clasping her hands together, she smiles a bit stronger. She'd hoped he'd say that.]

Derek. Hold on, I'll get him...

[With a bit of fumbling, she gets out her gear and manages to set it up to audio with minimum fuss.]

[Greed smiles back and sticks his hands in his pockets as he leans back against a tree, more than happy to wait and see what this new guy will be like. If he liked him well enough, he'd buy him a drink too.]

No problem, pretty lady. We can chill here as long as we need to.

[Look who is late because her mun was busy! It's our doctor! He comes over, waving a little. Derp.]
Hey...!

[Greed lifts a hand in greeting, an easy grin on his face. Lucky, of course being a bit over excited to have so many new friends with them on their journey, starts barking and bounds over to sniff the man approaching them and upon deciding he was no danger to his master, tries to beg for ear scratches. Greed doesn't do anything to stop this, looking quite amused]

Hey yourself, name's Greed. You must be Derek, huh? 's nice to meet ya. That little guy is named Lucky.

[Derek leans down to the little hell-puppy, to give it a few scratches. Hell, can't be weirder than his Chansey. Which is still holding to his PokeGear.]
Y-yeah... Dee mentioned you. It's always safer in numbers... but do any of us have experience on this sort of thing?

[After chuckling at the flattery, Dee waves as Derek joins them. His question has her hum and tap her own cheek in thought.]

Well, I've never specifically woken up in a strange world with little creatures which follow people around and can do things like breathe fire... But I know how to sew, and I'm used to walking around for a while. Oh! And I can tell you what berries'll kill you!

[She knows from experience! Just not her own.]

[Greed considers a moment, his smile waning just a tad. Since this did actually seem to be a whole different world with no alchemist, he didn't really need to worry about avoiding mentioning the fact that you could seal him. Besides, he just didn't get that shady feel from either of them.]

Well, I've kinda woken up like 2 centuries from when I last been, before, an' it wasn't too hard t' adapt. Think I read somethin' about there bein' gymnasiums here what we can win stuff from if we train these things. They kinda look like the chimeras from back home. Except they have special powers like I did.

[His grins again] As for what I c'n bring to the table, I'll have your backs so long as we're travelin' together, and I'm not gonna let nobody mess with my people. Plus, Lucky can breathe fire, so if we're roughin' it, we'll always have a fire. [Lucky, who has by now settled down at Greed's feet, pants happily as Greed scruffles the fur behind his ears.]

[Derek is silent, as 'Dee' and Greed speak. But he's definatly looking nervous about Greed, at least. Greed... had powers?! And Dee didn't seem too shaken by this... what in the world...?!]
Now that we've introduced ourselves... should we get going? I'll only be staying with you until Cherrygrove, but I'll teach you everything I can.

That would be great! I'm sure you'll be a positive lifesaver, Derek.

_{[She winks at him in a friendly manner before settling herself between the two men.]}

Three days until Cherrygrove... It looks like we have a lot of ground to cover, guys!

_{[With a cheer that's no doubt expected of her by this point, she loops her arms 'round theirs like a chain and begins to walk down the path.]}

Heh, I sure could use some know-how. 's been a while since I've even needed patching up.

[Greed looks very pleased to be arm-linked with Dee and grins like a shark as he walks along with them.]

We sure do, Dee. 'm lookin forward t' catchin more of these little monster things. And teaching Lucky how to fight. I c'n tell he'll be good at it. What're you plannin' on doing once we're in Cherrygrove, Doc?

I'm planning on resting for a while. I... erm, just got out of an operation.
[Technically, that's not true.]
