Unfortunately, Anise was right in figuring out that showing any anger would only encourage Sync more. He openly grinned at the 'greeting', and while he kept his distance he certainly wasn't going to leave her alone any time soon. It didn't matter that she was likely in a bad mood, though he couldn't see anyone being in the mood for this; who in their right mind would actually look forward to being bothered?

"For you to stay just as you are," Sync pointed out.

But just as he was about to continue he heard the crunch of footsteps moving closer, green eyes glancing off to the side to catch a familiar blond making his way over. And instead of showing any frustration for being outnumbered, the God-General remained amused that Claude would have the nerve to bother him in the first place.

"Why? Are you getting jealous for being left out, Claude?" He wasn't stupid; starting anything in broad daylight would only bring trouble to all of them. Unlike some, he actually thought this was common sense.
