ONE / VIDEO
Jun. 19th, 2011 02:41 pm[ this is a video. just a normal, shaky-hand video. what is it a video of? a bed. a very comfy looking human bed with crisp white sheets and fluffy pillows and a awesome looking bouncy mattress and it looks all soft and warm and oh my god.
and then there's this kid. this horrifying, grey-skinned kid with shark-like teeth and horns on his head that look like candy corn. and he's just... staring. at the bed. all befuddled and a little bit angry. ]
How do I use this thing? It's like you humans go out of your way to make yourselves uncomfortable.
[ excuse him, he's just used to being suspended in slime while he sleeps. obviously. ]

Date: 2011-06-20 10:44 am (UTC)I'd do it anyway, whether you told me to or not. He's my moirail, Karkat; he's my responsibility now.

Eridan and I are moirails now, but that's fairly recent. The only other troll here is Sollux.
Have you seen him yet, Karkat? I'm sure he'd be really happy to see you!
[Because the two of you were hovering towards being flushed for each other, but she's too polite to mention that.]

Thank you for being honest with me, Karkat. You've given me a lot to think about.

Date: 2011-06-21 03:08 am (UTC)Just... don't be too hard on Eridan, okay? He's trying, as best he can, to be a good troll... it's just hard for him. He has a lot of emotional baggage that needs to be sorted through.

Date: 2011-06-21 04:29 am (UTC)The thing is, though... from his viewpoint, he's not lying. You two were is a kismesistude here, and you both seemed pretty happy with it.
Food for thought, I suppose.

Date: 2011-06-21 10:12 am (UTC)Like I said, I'll talk to him. It's probably best that the two of you don't meet face to face for a few days. I'll do my best to run interference, but don't actively antagonize him either; he'll misinterpret your intentions.

You just worry about getting settled in and getting used to Somarium; I'll take care of Eridan and get back to you later.
Bye, Karkat!
