"Fair enough" Masquerade looked at the bird as he said this, wondering why he hadn't noticed it before.

"I'm a parasite" Masquerade said flatly.

"A parasite, you know, like a tapeworm....actually, its not really like that at all, but you get the idea...I think." Masquerade explained, trying fruitlessly to think up parasites other than tapeworms.

"Likewise, I'm Masquerade" he said.

"Unusual?...Yeah, I guess it is. My name is a play on the whole mask thing, I think, considering Masquerade means masked face in french..." he said, thinking. Hydranoid popped out of a pocket. "Not a very original name." Masquerade shot a look at him, taking him out of his pocket. "Says you. Hydranoid isn't even a personal name! Its a species!"

"Huh, I guess, but I'm not a deadly sin am I?" Masquerade replied.

"Pleased to meet you too" Masquerade answered, stuffing Hydranoid back into a pocket.

"Thieving...huh, I wonder..." Masquerade walked over to a shop with a large window, and extended his arm out in front of him. It sailed harmlessly through the glass. "Hell yes! Being a spirit rocks!"

"Doubt it, but I bet I could unlock the door." Masquerade said, as he slipped through the glass, and worked to find the door's lock. After a while, he pushed the door open. "And we are in business!"

"I don't know,I'm not really here for the stuff..." Masquerade smirked, and disappeared into the back of the shop.

Masquerade looked around the back of the store, peering into random rooms, and ignoring whatever Hydranoid was trying to say.

"People, or, more exactly, one person, on their own." Masquerade replied, grinning in a sinister fashion.

"Considering I don't know what a Homunculus is..." Masquerade said, "And anyway, at least one person probably saw you enter the shop..."

"I'm not a murderer, if that's what you think. People who are alive are much more useful." Masquerade replied.

"Well, since you're probably going to follow me anyway, I may as well tell you. I'm a parasitic spirit, which means I won't last long without a host, so, well, you can probably guess the rest." Masquerade told Greed, still smiling. He finished saying this around a second before Mia found them. He lost his smile, attempting to think of something to say.

"We're not gonna hurt her, unless you want to find out what being a host is like..." Masquerade growled

"Search me" Masquerade replied to Greed, staring at the ceiling.

"Exactly, so I'm going to keep looking." Masquerade said, then turned, and walked out.

"I don't see any point in it, most of the time." Masquerade replied, just as quietly.

Masquerade said nothing, but walked from the shop with a smile like a Cheshire cat.
