kindness didn't deserve this (but gluttony does)

How did the sins and virtues end up in Envy's house for a sleepover?

Well, folks, Envy doesn't know either.

It started from Gluttony and Sloth camping in... as always, then Wrath came out of nowhere and decided to stay over. And then in came Lust, dragging Chastity by her clothes, and said that she heard from Gluttony that Envy's having a sleepover.

Envy was... mad. But he found that he didn't really mind.

Patience arrived in a portal soon after Gluttony announced the sleepover. He had tons of blankets and pillows, and he was pretty much ambushed by everyone.

Diligence, Rion (Pride) and Kindness arrived a few minutes after Patience did.

"Envy!" Kindness said as a greeting. "I didn't know you liked sleepovers."

He turned red. "I don't," Envy huffed. "This idiot right here, named Gluttony, invited everyone. This is ridiculous."

Diligence was already off chatting with Chastity.

"Should I go home, then?" Kindness asked.

Envy turned redder, the tips of his ears now tinged with pink. "No," he grudgingly said. "Stay."

Kindness smiled a smile so warm it melted Envy's cold, dead, and frozen heart.

"Why is that guy even here?" he asked, pointing at Diligence.

"Oh, he wanted to make sure I stay safe." Kindness explained.

Envy nodded. Slowly, he turned away as Kindness joined Diligence to see Temperance entering his house. Mentally, he did a head count of everyone in his house.

Gluttony, Temperance, Sloth, Diligence, Kindness, me, Rion, Patience, Wrath, Chastity, Lust—oh, Greed and Charity's not here.

Just after he'd done his count, Charity and Greed fell out of a portal.

"Why am I here?" Greed immediately demanded, standing up. "I have work to do! Who transported me here? I demand answers!"

Charity also got up. "There are a lot of spirits in here. Isn't it dangerous?"

"Nah, this is Envy's house, we're safe," Gluttony said.

"Answer me!" Greed snapped.

"Ugh, you're all so noisy..." Sloth complained. "We paid Elives to get you two here. Now can you shut up and let me sleep?"

Charity apologized while Greed just wanted to go back from wherever she was.

Meanwhile, Envy was shouting at Gluttony.

"Why the hell did you invite that cat here?!" he demanded. "She's the reason my name was tarnished when I tried to overthrow Witchcraft!"

"Hey, I didn't pay for the Elives! It was Sloth's idea! And Kindness said she wanted to meet Charity, so Rion paid for it!"

"I wanna eat Tempe," Gluttony put in.

Envy looked at him weirdly. "Then just order it."

Gluttony smirks. "Not it. Her."

Envy choked on his water.

Lust giggled like a madman. Of course she'd get the joke. She is, after all, Lust.

Temperance slapped Gluttony. Immediately. He didn't care, because he was laughing his head off.

Greed dropped her spoon. The sound was drowned out by other people's reactions, but it was noticeable that she got the lewd joke. Surprisingly.

Diligence turned red, either from anger or embarrassment, nobody knew.

Chastity looked murderous. Surprisingly, she also understood the joke, despite her being chaste.

Rion blushed furiously. People would've thought him to be innocent, but one does not live for centuries and not get a simple innuendo. Especially his Pride side of him.

Wrath froze, but the others just looked confused (or in Sloth's case, sleeping.)

As Envy was busy trying to breathe, Lust leaned over and whispered something to Kindness' ear. Almost immediately after Lust sat back properly, Kindness turned as red as the chili sauce on the table. Envy, who had gathered his bearings, saw this and glared at Lust, who just giggled in return.
