[Kevas hasn't had a good night's sleep since arriving at the keep. What little sleep he does get is plagued with nightmares of those he left behind. At this point he's all but given up trying to get any decent rest

*Sollux is not doing the best job of paying attention to where he's going to either when he comes across Kevas. He was supposed to be on his way back to his room from the library, and is carrying a bag of something, but he doesn't really have the layout of this place down. And is having some trouble caring about it, honestly.
He's gotten used to seeing the strange, pale aliens he assumes are human by now, but Kevas is something else altogether. So he stops and watches him for a moment, making sure the drunk creature isn't a threat. Not that anything here has been a threat yet, but there's a first time for everything.*
[Kevas catches Sollux watching him and turns to face the kid. Grey skin and horns, just like Nepeta. That must mean he's another troll. Why is not surprised to find that there's more of them? Is it so much to ask to ever find a troll from Azeroth walking around? Apparently so. It seems Kevas will be the last of his kind no matter where he goes.]
*Ogres and other underlings never talked, so its probably a good bet Kevas is another one of the people pulled here. Thus not an immediate threat. (Sollux isn't sure if he's happy or upset at that, really.) He grunts a bit.*
No way. If they don't figure it out for themselves they'll never learn and we'll be left with substandard universes all over the place. Like some reject craft fair full of poorly painted pictures and stupid little trinkets.
They'd probably insist rightly made universes were wrong because we didn't include their 'artistic vision,' or whatever retarded bullshit no right-thinking species gives a crap about.
Dey can get all high and mighty, especially dem 'noble' ones.
[In all his years Kevas never met a noble or paladin that he liked. Then again that goes for just about any of the races. All of them have their share of self-righteous asses.]
[Look at those ears Sollux, of course he heard you mumbling. Luckily Kevas isn't the kind of person to pry into a stranger's problems when he doesn't have to. Plus he's too busy dealing with his own depression to help anyone else with theirs.]
I've met mons from more worlds den I can count. Joo be right 'bout dat, trust me.

*He must be using some other language, because that sure as hell isn't wtfever trolls speak english common.
He grunts a bit again.*
I'm not surprised. I'm not surprised they managed to break the universe this much either.

[It feels weird having to explain something that's so incredibly simple.]
Oh I don't know. Get some good glue and I be sure everytin' gonna be good as new.
[Kevas isn't sure if they're the ones that caused this whole mess, but right now that's not his concern.]

You mean a man?
*Just because Sollux gets pissed when people make fun of the way he talks doesn't mean he can't make fun of how other people talk.*
Please tell me you don't actually think that's how it works.

Whatevah, it be da same t'ing.

Noble is just a code word for 'self-righteous asshole.'
*...except for Fef...*
...mostly.
*He chuckles, quickly moving away from that possibly-question-drawing mumble.*
That's probably a constant across all the universes.
*All of them.*
