For several moments, nobody moved. Soon, however, they began searching through their new base, trying to find somewhere to sleep.
Martel lingered behind for a moment. She was about to talk to Greed about all this while they were alone, but decided against it. She turned around and followed after the others. "Oh, what do you know" she said softly when she felt a slight twinge in her stomach, which she was unable to ignore.

He had wanted to say so many things at that moment, but didn't.
He watched her leave down the path she took.
"H'eh.." he mumbled.

Martel slipped into a small room on the second level. There wasn't much in it, but she didn't mind. All she really needed was some form of bed, and even that wasn't completely necessary. She layed down on the bed, which was a little creaky but stable enough. "Okay, what the hell?" she muttered angrily, rubbing her stomach, which was still twinging slightly.

Greed simply reclined further back into the chair, not really knowing what to do. He sighed. |What can I do?| he thought to himself.

"Okay, does this have something to do with Greed?" she asked, glancing down at her stomach. Feeling another twinge, she sighed. "Listen, I was being honest when I said I love him, and I'm sure he wasn't lying when he said it to me. But, that's the problem- if Dante or any of her bastard homunculi find out about that, they'll be able to use me to get to Greed!". Her voice trailed off slightly, and she rubbed her forehead. "What am I doing?" she asked, sounding a bit exasperated.

He had been kicking himself mentally about roughly the same thing, before hearing her say such herself.
"What am I doing..?" he repeated, thoughtfully.
Without thinking, he made his way to her room, walking.
He just did, no idea of what he would do once he reached her.

She stiffened slightly when she heard Greed's footsteps coming towards her room. "Dammit" she said, somewhat angry with herself. How in the hell could she forget that Greed's hearing was better than a human's? He had probably heard everything she'd just said. But, why was he coming to see her?

He entered her room, and just made his way to her bed. Sitting on it, and reclining back.
".. 'Eh." he said, airily.

"Hey" she said, smiling slightly. Maybe she had gotten lucky. Maybe he hadn't actually heard what she'd just said. But, if that was the case, there was even less reason for him to be here.

"So... What did ya' mean by all that..?" he asked, gently.
Seemingly curious enough. He looked her direction, smiling lightly.

She winced slightly. "You heard that? All of it?" she asked, sounding somewhat nervous. God, how could she have been so stupid? She should have remembered he would be able to hear her, no matter how far she was from him. As long as they were in the same general area- even a place as big as this- he'd be able to hear everything she said.

"Just explain." he said, sounding a bit distant.
He laid there, looking up to her ceiling now.

"Well, like I said, I wasn't kidding when I said I loved you" Martel said, sighing slightly. There was no way she could get out of this now. "But, that's the problem. Dante may be insane, but she's not stupid. She will use me as a way to get to you. That's the way it always works".

Greed began to laugh.
"Hahahaha'! Do'ya really think that hag would have an effect on me?" he teased.
"She is afraid, Envy and Wrath were proof of this. She hasn't told them about the power she knows about, nor the one she doesn't. She hasn't even told them about that 'incident' back when I was born." he added, suggesting there was much about him not even his followers knew.
"Knowing that bitch, she is going to try to overwhelm me. Probably using most of her resourcefulness. Pride and his little army set would most likely become a problem." he looked to Martel.
"Either let y'er war buddy know 'bout this, or he will become a potential problem." he warned, Martel. His gaze sweeping over her cautiously.

"I know the bastard- he's an asshole but otherwise he's harmless." Martel mumbled softly. There was something she wanted to ask him, but she was afraid to see his reaction. However, if there was one thing she had in common with the snake it was the way she'd handle things. Quick, and without warning.
"Why are you even letting me stay here? I betrayed you, and you know it" she said, refering to the fact that she'd gone to Dante for assistance.

"Oh?" he said, sounding almost playful.
"If that's the case, and you can admit that so openly, maybe I should really kill you." he said, passively. Deep down, he would never forgive her for that, but for now it wasn't the main issue.

"It won't happen again. I don't know why I let it happen the first time" she said, frowning slightly. She felt herself moving closer to him. And once she realized how close she was getting, she blushed slightly and considered backing away. After thinking it over for a moment, she remained where she was.

"I won't lie, I want to believe that. But we'll see how you react next time." he remarked, allowing her so close. He perked a brow. His mark on his hand was glowing.
"One of us has had their self altered. Something's going on." he said, half-concerned.

"Do you mean someone in our group, or one of the homunculi?" she asked, sounding nowhere near as interested as she probably should have. But, come on, she was tired. It had been a very long time since she'd gotten a decent night's sleep and now that was catching up to her.

"Homunculli. One of them has been altered somehow." he replied, thoughtfully.
"Something is happening. This will get interesting." he said, lightly.
Relaxing once more, this time with a small smirk.
"Relax, Martel. Get some sleep or something." he said, idly.
Knowing she wouldn't talk to him, nor would they get anywhere. So, maybe leaving it unsaid and in the past would be helpful.
