I still haven't figure out what to do with the name he gave me. "Use it," he says. "William." How the hell am I supposed to use a human name, anyway? I don't still have a human side to use it with. I'm Envy.

"William," huh...

Uhh, I could call you William if you want someone to use that name.

[sins_rebellion]

Whatever. If you want.

[allinnature]

...Alright. William. Doesn't sound that bad, does it?

Want any cookies? I made too many...

[sins_rebellion]

Sounds weird. But I guess, since he gave it to me, I should get used to it.

Cookies? Sure, I guess.

An actual name is better than an abstract concept with a negative connotation, Will. Though I'm sorry your own mother didn't care about you enough to even remind you of it. So I thought it would only be kind to give you the name that I know, for sure, that at least one version of you had as a human.

[sins_rebellion]

I don't have a "William" side like you and Ed have yours.

[steelsoul_al]

Of course you do.

If you were just "Envy", you wouldn't have the kind of hatred you do towards Dante. She was your mother, and you were nothing but a tool to you. It hurts, when you realize you're being used.

Even if you can't remember living as a human, that part of you is still there. Do you remember your human face?

[sins_rebellion]

I hate her because I'm Envy. What the hell do you know about it, anyway?

I can remember living as a human just fine. I remember the face I had then. And I know I'm not that human anymore.

[whoneeds_milk]

Oh, I don't know about that, William. There was that one week when you insisted that's what you were called.

[sins_rebellion]

I wasn't myself at the time. That William was human.

[gm_kragok]

You have an echidna name?

[sins_rebellion]

What? What's an "echidna"?

[gm_kragok]

Like me.

[sins_rebellion]

And what sort of a name is an "echidna name"?

[reallyaniceguy]

My name's pretty much unpronouncable in the human tongue, but you can call me Crowley.

[ooc: lawl, shut up, Crawly.]

[sins_rebellion]

I'm Envy no matter what Almunculus says about that. Lucky for me, I don't have a human tongue.

[reallyaniceguy]

Don't you? That's a pity. I find them to be singularly useful, although I must admit they do make hissing a bit difficult.

[sins_rebellion]

I'm sure my tongue is more useful than a humans.
