Tavros Im Very Glad To See Youve Returned
It Seems As Though You Have Little Recollection Of Your Previous Visit If You Dont Recognize The Setting However
I Dont Believe This Constitutes A Part Of The Dream Bubbles However
We Do In Fact Exist In An Entirely Separate Universe At The Moment
And You Appear To Be Farther Along In The Timeline Than I Would Have Imagined You To Be

That Was What Terezi Mistaken Assumed
But I Think She Had Other Feelings Clouding Her Deductive Capabilities
There Is No Doubt Regarding What Happened
Equius Died Confronting Gamzee After Hed Begun Making Threats
Nepeta While Seeking Revenge For What Happened To Equius
She Witnessed The Entire Affair And I Saw Him Later With Items From Theirs Persons As Trophies
Hes Fulfilled What He Sees As His Blood Destiny In Joining The Ranks Of The Subjuggalators
And Theres Certainly No Doubt As To What Hes Done Here In The City
Though I Understand Why You Might Not Be Aware Of Any Of This As It All Transpired After Your Death

[peanutblooder]

AT: i DON'T KNOW,
AT: wHAT TO DO NOW,
AT: kANAYA, HE NEVER WANTED TO DO ANYTHING LIKE THAT, bEFORE,

[tastesrainbows]

I Know
It Was Such A Sudden Change That I Dont Believe Any Of Us Expected It
Least Of All From Him
Eridans Turn By Comparison Was Perhaps More Telegraphed
Gamzee Attributes The Change To No Longer Ingesting Sopor Slime

[peanutblooder]

AT: tHIS IS,
AT: rEALLY,
AT: vERY UPSETTING,
AT: D:{
AT: aND NOW THEY'RE CALIGINOUS, aS WELL?

[tastesrainbows]

He And Eridan Are Yes

[peanutblooder]

AT: dOES HE HAVE, a MOIRAIL?
AT: aND, dOES eRIDAN?

[tastesrainbows]

Eridan Has A Moirail In A Human Named Edward
Though He Seems Rather Ill Suited For The Job Quite Frankly
Gamzee
Does Not No

[ and she knows it's because he's supposed to have hers and she feels terrible for it ]

[peanutblooder]

AT: wOULDN'T A MOIRAIL BE, UH, THE BEST WAY TO CALM gAMZEE DOWN?
AT: lIKE nEPETA DOES FOR eRIDAN,
AT: i, uHH, dON'T REALLY KNOW A LOT ABOUT RELATIONSHIPS,
AT: bUT IT SEEMS LIKE, hE AND eRIDAN ARE MAKING EACH OTHER WORSE!
AT: ,,,wHICH IS, i GUESS, hOW THAT IS SUPPOSED TO GO ANYWAY,
AT: wITH BLACKROM,

[tastesrainbows]

Trust Me Tavros
I Am Well Aware Of This Fact

[ it's not like she's planning to sabotage her own moirallegiance in order to assist karkat in fulfilling his duties to pacifying gamzee or anything
(except that yes, that is exactly what she's planning to do) ]

[peanutblooder]

AT: ,,,i WOULD DO IT, kANAYA,
AT: i WOULD DO IT IN, uH, oNE tHUMP OF MY LAND BASED VASCULAR MUSCLE,
AT: bUT, uHHH, iT'S PRETTY CLEAR THAT, pROBABLY, hE DOES NOT WANT, uH, mE, iN A PALE WAY,
AT: }:(

[tastesrainbows]

That Would Probably Explain A Great Deal
If Im Correctly Understanding The Insinuation Youre Making
In The Veil Hed In Fact Entered A Moirallegiance
Ive Put No Small Amount Of Thought Into Replicating The Scenario Here

[peanutblooder]

AT: oH,
AT: rEALLY?
AT: wITH, uHHH, wITH WHO?
AT: ,,,
AT: aLSO, i SHOULD PROBABLY CLARIFY,
AT: tHAT i AM NOT SAD ABOUT, uH, hIS FEELINGS,
AT: tHAT WOULD BE, UH, PRETTY PRESUMPTUOUS, aND NOT VERY FRIENDLY,
AT: aLTHOUGH i AM, mOSTLY, sTILL CONFUSED AND, nOT REALLY SURE WHAT TO DO ABOUT IT ALL,
AT: tHE SAD FACE WAS, iNSTEAD, fOR,,,
AT: i GUESS,
AT: NOT BEING ABLE TO HELP MORE,

[tastesrainbows]

Its A Sensitive Matter At The Moment
Which Is To Say Id Rather Not Reveal The Individuals Identity Right Now
For Personal Reasons
But Believe Me I Have Experience With Entering A Pale Understanding When The Feelings Are Confused
Its Typically More Successful When It Isnt The One Who Most Requires Pacifying That Would Desire A Different Quadrant Instead

[peanutblooder]

AT: uHHH, oKAY, bUT
AT: tHERE, uH, aREN'T TOO MANY OF US THAT i CAN THINK OF, aCTUALLY,
AT: iF i RUN THE NUMBERS,
AT: wHO WOULD, uH, sUIT,,,
AT: bUT i ALSO WOULD NOT HAVE EXPECTED eRIDAN,
AT: tO EMERGE AS HIS KISEMESIS,
AT: tHOUGH, uH, mAYBE IT HAD SOMETHING TO DO, pOSSIBLY, wITH BEACHES AND HIS LUSUS,
AT: i GUESS i DON'T REALLY KNOW,
AT: ,,,i'M VERY TIRED, kANAYA,
AT: bUT i DON'T KNOW WHAT WILL HAPPEN,
AT: iF i GO TO SLEEP HERE,

If You Feel It Would Be Necessary
I Could Stand Watch
Just To Be Certain That Nothing Unbecoming Should Result
