[When the feed clicks on, it shows a rather serious faced Seatroll prince, eying the feed with a certain judging and condescending air that really only fits one of his caste. His brows knit and the corner of his mouth pulls back in snarl just before he starts.]So it's come to my attention that a good handful a you think that the fakest fiction that

[DO NOT MAKE HIM DO THIS DO NOT MAKE HIM DO THIS DO NOT MAK--]

[Ever so slightly, he steps from behind the sofa, gingerly making his way forward, however stopping a good distance still from Karkat.]

[ACTION]

[yerawizarderri]

Kar...

[WHINING, PLEASE TAKE MERCY KAR, HE DOESN'T WANT TO CROSS THE DISTANCE.]

[ACTION]

[yerawizarderri]

[Karkat you are so fucking terrifying right now, you don't fucking even.]

[And so? Eridan, very slowly, hesitantly, shakily makes his way over, close enough that if Kar so wished, he could easily reach out and touch Eridan.]

[OH GOD OH GOD OH GOD]

Sweaty-douche jack!

[While he was specifically told to not interfer with the gutterblood, Equius recognizes the sound of a beating when he hears one, and sticks his head into the living room.]

Do you need some assistance, Master Ampora?

[Just say the word.]

[action]

[yerawizarderri]

[As much as Eridan was expecting that punch? It definitely made no difference. It still hit him square in the jaw, it still made him stagger backwards and it still hurt like all fucking hell. Did he deserve it? Yeah, most definitely. Did he understand why Karkat was being this way? An even more definite yes, and did he want to tell Karkat the truth?]

[Hell fucking no! But he knew, his choices were limited. Tell Karkat, get the shit beat out of him. Don't tell Karkat, get the shit beat out of him till he tells Karkat--and then get the shit beat further out of him. Lesser of two evils man... Fuck.]

K-Kar look... I...

[What.]

[Fuck, Equius was here. Fuck Fuck fuck.. No he wasn't going to use Equius against Karkat, that would make things worse and... Well, no.]

Eq! Get the fuck out of here! I don't need your fuckin' assistance! Just--Leawe the hiwe!

[Equius was his protection from other trolls, but not Karkat. No.]

[action]

[stayb100ponyboy]

[Look at that lip curl, Karkat. That's just for you.

The only reason Equius isn't punching him through the wall right now is because Eridan told him not to.]

For the record, I'm leaving because Master Ampora told me to, not because you did.

[And with that, he moves to the door.]

[action]

[yerawizarderri]

Eq! What the fuck did I say about respectin' Kar? His commands are about as good as mine, so you better fuckin' start behawin' you lowly piece a filth! But, just fuckin' leawe, you can come back when I fuckin' call you.

[Yeah, he's trying to get what little stress out he can before he eats Karkat's fist and endures an onslaught of insults and yelling.]

[As Equius leaves, he looks back to Karkat, just as terrified and worried as before--Yeah there was a distraction, but it wasn't like it completely derailed them of what was to come.]

[He's fidgeting now, mere moments before he was ready to spill his guts... But that distraction had somehow made things that much worse.]

Kar, I don't want to say it... I know you'll... I know how you'll react...

[action]

[yerawizarderri]

[Eridan lowers his gaze. Yeah, he knows he's dug himself quite the fucking hole. If he tries to keep from saying it now? Yeah... He may as well take the least punishment he can get, even if it isn't exactly a fucking bargain.]

It--It's...

[Knot in throat, can you kindly gtfo Eridan is trying to speak here...]

It's... Wris...

[Yep, he's aware of what might happen. His body is not ready.]

[action]

[yerawizarderri]

[Eridan just kind of gawks for a moment, but then starts.]

I well... She just... Seemed so fuckin' genuine, and what she said... I--

[She was being honest... Right? She wasn't lying to him... No, she...]

[Fuck...]
