[Humans sleep at night, right? It seemed like the best time to try leaving his room, at least, considering from what he'd seen most of the residents here weren't nocturnal, or so he thought.

He's going to open his door slowly, leaning out of his room and examining the hallway outside; all clear from what he could tell, soooo he'll step outside as quickly as he can without making any noise and head downstairs.

Mainly because with everything going on, he was too caught up in his own stuff to remember you could wish for stuff here, namely food, resulting in his hunger finally getting to him.

Then once he finally gets to the kitchen, he's totally raiding everything. If he picks up something he doesn't like, he'll just put it back and keep looking, otherwise he'll finish whatever the hell it was he picked up cause it was more than likely delicious.]

[ooc: because being able to avoid your loss by hanging around in your room is lame, I'm throwing him on out there. Hallways on the way down or the kitchen itself, your choice, but this troll clearly needs to be bothered in the most awkward situation ever]

[biwinning]

Yeah. I'll back off.

But I want to athk your opinion on thomething.

[caligulas_aquarium]

...

Sure, what is it?

[biwinning]

What do you think about Eridan, right now?

1/2

[caligulas_aquarium]

He...

[caligulas_aquarium]

[What to say?

What WOULD she say?

"I can't stand him!" "He's okay." "I'll never forgive him!" "He deserves a second chance."

God, why can't Sollux just shut up.]

I don't know.

I still don't know if he deserves a second chance. Until then I'm not sure how I really feel.

[C'MON VAGUE ANSWER...]

[biwinning]

What if I thaid I think he detherveth a thecond chance.

[Arms crossed, but he's not angry.]

He apologized.

[caligulas_aquarium]

[Well...didn't expect that.]

I feel like I should be asking you if you're okay.

That's not something I thought you'd ever say.

[biwinning]

It'th not thomething I thought I'd thay either. But he theemed to mean it.

[caligulas_aquarium]

Ugh...Sollux, I--

[Slight pause.]

...I'll...think about it?

[biwinning]

Alright. Fine. I'll go now.

After you admit you're not Feferi.

[caligulas_aquarium]

...

[Welp, you just got played for a fool by Sollux.

Only one thing to do now.

Get mad!]

What the shit are you doing makin' me play along if you know it isn't me??

Fuck there I am tryin' to keep this nice an' simple so you don't find out an' a' course you pull the biggest fuckin' load a shit I have ever seen an' act like a complete prick.

Seriously, fuck you.

[biwinning]

What the fuck were you doing, PRETENDING to be her! And you thought I wouldn't notice?! You didn't even make a thingle fish pun, and you seariouthly expected me to not notice.

I wanted to thee how far you'd take it. I conthidered trying to kith but then I figured that you'd probably like that too much.

[caligulas_aquarium]

I was tryin' to make sure you wouldn't find out, that's what the fuck I was doin'!

I was tryin'a keep this a fuckin' secret, tryin' bein' the operative word here.

It's not like I was goin' around fuckin' up her reputation or somethin', I just wanted some damn food.

[biwinning]

[SNORT. A very loud snort, actually. But he doesn't say anything after that. Eridan hadn't done anything wrong aside from do a very bad job at pretending to be Feferi.]

Tho get it. Am I thtopping you?

[caligulas_aquarium]

Well, you're not making it any easier Sol, jegus.

[A huff. He's also taking whatever bag of junk food it was Sollux had gotten himself a moment ago.]

...you're takin' this a lot better than I thought you would.

[biwinning]

[Wow, rude. Those are his cheese snacks.]

Maybe I'm jutht tired of getting upthet about it. I've practically known about thith for half a thweep now, but it'th hard to get over it when you keep showing up and being an abtholute douchefin.

[caligulas_aquarium]

[He'll take your cheese snacks.

AND EAT THEM.]

Yeah, well, you're not exactly easy to get along with either.

And none of this fifty fifty half a' the time bullshit you pull, I can't stand you all a' the time.

[biwinning]

[ ]

And I'm not giving a fuck if you can thtand me thince I don't care. I jutht want to move on from argumentsth and picking fightsth.

[caligulas_aquarium]

[...ugh.]

Okay, okay, look.

How about we make a compromise? A truce between us, if only for Fef cause otherwise I'd just keep it up for the sake a' it and she told me she doesn't like it when we argue an' fight anyway.

But I have a few conditions.

An' it's nothin' big so try not to say no until you actually hear them out, alright?

[biwinning]

You shouldn't be making any conditionsth at all!

[HEAVY SIGH.]

What ith it?

[caligulas_aquarium]

[Clearly Eridan is the master of negotiating truces.]

Firstly, I wanna try gettin' to know the princess again. Maybe even be friends if she'll let me.

So I don't want you doin' anythin' to get in the way a' that.

Is that okay?

[biwinning]

Get to know her with what purpothe? Trying to get her to jump in a quadrant with you?? Becauthe that'th not going to happen, jutht letting you know right now.

[caligulas_aquarium]

Sol, from my perspective, I was the only seadweller a' our entire race left for the entirety a the game, even if it wasn't true, it's what the castle has made me think.

It's still how I feel despite everyone tellin' me otherwise, cause it's hard to convince yourself your own memories are wrong.

Why the fuck do you think I wanna get to know the only other one left?

[biwinning]

...

Whatever. But if you tho much ath make her thlightly uncomfortable, don't be thurprithed if I hit you into the next week.

[caligulas_aquarium]

...alright. I've no problems with that.

[Nod.]

And just...maybe...one other thing. One really, really small and insignificant thing.

Then that's it I swear.
