[ he starts to counter with a biting remark, but fuck if that'd be any help right now. conversing with the dead always throws him off. ]

... Yeah. Listen, before we go through the blathering useless question trading phase in frothing pandemonium, I need to let you know that Eridan is here and you have to stay away from him.

That's a lie, sorry. I mean, I told him about it obviously. He knows, but he doesn't believe me.

video

[reelyexcited]

So... he does know, then. But this isn't the same Erida-...

Hey, Crabcakes?

What?
