A/N: EDIT--Returning to something a bit more humorous--and still AU. (A lot of these drabbles will be AU...)

Drabble 5: Almost Blind Date
Today was a particularly good day, a real stroke of luck meeting her while taking a walk. Real good thing he had decided to visit Central in the end, to, ahem...negotiate a business deal with some irritable clients for the Devil's Nest. They'd gotten off on the right foot, falling into conversation easily, slipping around the words as if they were on ice. Not that the conversation was anything ground-breaking, just relaxing and calmly and vaguely fluffy...not that the woman herself was fluffy. Greed found her hard and fierce, yet strangely kind, and well...she was just hot, a truely fine specimen of the arguably more efficient sex. Reminded him a lot of Izumi... But, apparently she belonged to someone else, and there lied the temptation to plan on snatching her away, but the Homunculus found himself rather reluctant, if only since her eyes told him quite plainly she'd never be happy in the possession of anyone else. Again, similar to Izumi...
Thus, Greed was rather surprised when the woman asked him out for a date.
"I don't even know your name," he replied cooly, once wiping the shock clean off his face.
She just smiled.
"So then...would this be a scheme to make your guy jealous?" As he learned in his relatively short time with her, she looked even hotter when she glared.
"Because, you know, I would help if that were the case," said Greed with a chuckle under his breath, a playful smirk on his own lips. She obliged, returning her own small smirk.
"What about if it were for real? What if I just wanted to go out to with someone who could probably show me a good time? With restrictions, of course," ending on that note with her smirk widening a margin.
"Of course... Just a bundle of harmless fun, eh?"
"Hmmm...Riza Hawkeye."
"Eh?" The woman stood up all smiling, her tightly bound, yet slightly loose blonde hair drifting a little in the breeze.
"That's my name Mr. Greed. I expect you to pick me up around 7:00 sharp this Friday." And she left, walking down the same hill where Greed had first seen her.
A/N: Right, this will end in Roy/Riza, with Greed in the middle of course, just to make things unique. The whole Riza dating Greed while loving Roy...my logic--well, honestly, for a funny plot I have in mind, but also...I think it could realistically work. And, perhaps subconsciously, Riza is trying to make Roy jealous... Also, I won't go into too much detail over the, uh, negotiations Greed's doing in Central...
P.S. Was Riza a surprise for y'all in the end? (I hope so, that was the intended effect...)
