GOING FOR THE GOLD - GREED X JC MASTERPOST
Phase 2: Awareness and Prevention
- greed had already noticed how creativity is onto him and is trying to get her away from him
- greed's opinion on creativity is complicated. before creativity's awareness, he have no particular opinion towards him except that he have his eyes on him because he's the closest to jc then. however, after that, he started seeing creativity as a real and living threat getting in the way of them being together
- greed thinks creativity want to have jc all to himself to spend the rest of his eternity with instead of just him being worried about her safety which pisses him off because in his eyes jc is his and his only (like how he gets everything he wants in life effortlessly since he's quite literally the element of greed).
- as his obsession grows due to his lack of ability to cope nor control his overwhelming feelings, greed starts to have delusions that creativity want to harm and kill jc after seeing small harmless gestures he made to her that caused him to instantly assume as hostile and recurring dreams and that it's up to him to save her
- greed started to keep her even closer, spoil her even more and begun to isolate jc. he also sent warnings to creativity indirectly like sending him ominous notes with no sign off ("you want to hurt her don't you? better watch your fucking back."), insisting that she stay longer with him, convincing jc to not invite creativity etc. greed never directly confronted creativity and continued to act indifferent to him on the outside.
- jc is oblivious and unaware of the greed and creativity conflict behind the scenes because she was laser focused on toying with greed. by this point she lost the plot of seriously considering him to be her lifelong partner because greed is too entertaining to her. she no longer looks at his personality but instead just lead him on even further to see what other crazy and exhilarating shit he would do for her or what extravagant shit he would bring for her. she was also starting to be corrupted by greed because of all the nice things he bought her. being worshipped like this brings jc utter euphoria that she was hooked on like a drug and can't let go of. thus, she was willing to do anything he asked for including staying further away from creativity because she is determined to play that game if it means doing anything greed asked her to.
- she continued to play the game because she wants to see how far she can push greed until he can't take it and begs for her to be his girlfriend, which then jc would proudly accept because it strokes her ego (this is all in her fantasy). her egomaniacal behaviour and illogical attitude towards all of this mirrors ego heavily
- jc is also starting to like greed as they hang out more together (but not romantically).
- creativity was not intending to back down any second. he already expected this retaliation from greed so he actually wanted to find time to ask jc about this. however, he picked the WORST possible time to do this
- at a party, creativity asked and told jc about greed when she was butt drunk. jc normally doesn't like showing her egomaniacal side in front of creativity because their friendship is genuine and they love each other platonically, but she's drunk and irritated at the time, so she told creativity that she just likes to be around greed because of his usefulness and that she felt important around him, more than how much he could ever make her feel. she told him she felt like a goddess around him and that creativity shouldn't meddle with their business anymore.
- creativity is obviously extremely hurt by those words. instead of giving up, he still chose to protect jc and confront greed head on in somewhere remote the day after
- the details are not known by anyone about what happened in that conversation, but jc just so happens to stumble across the scene about 20 minutes later on her way home after a fruitful day of annoying ego.
- jc's favourite colour had always been red, but the sight of red all over creativity's head and the rock beside him made her sick to her stomach. her pupils shrank to the size of pinpricks and darted to the nearest person next to her unconscious friend.
"what's wrong, jc? I painted him red just for you. don't you like it?"
