Canon Mates
Aradia Megido(Dropped)
♈ "It makes absolutely no sense at first, but it can be rather enjoyable."
Eridan doesn’t know Aradia that well, especially not when she was alive anyways. It’s not like he makes a habit of hitting on dead chicks after all, that’s more so Equius shtick. Despite her being at the bottom of the hemospectrum though, he doesn’t mind her that much. She’s more so sort of there. She’s never really wronged him and he’s not necessarily looking to wrong her either. Doesn’t stop him from being a classist douche bag though.
He didn’t talk to her often when she was in Johto, but the few times they did he didn’t necessarily NOT like it, but it didn’t do much to bridge the social gap between them. He definitely wouldn’t be bothered if she showed up again, but for the most part she’s just kind of there.

Tavros Nitram
♉ "I wish it sounded more like a fairytale than, uhh, what it actually is, but I guess I can't really change that part."
Eridan really doesn’t have much respect for Tavros, in fact, he sort of has a touch of a grudge. Not a very verbal one, but one nonetheless. Despite how nice and helpful Tavros is, it does nothing to thwart Eridan of his condescending views. Tavros being the second lowest on the spectrum, that alone is enough to draw negative attention from Eridan, but the fact that this shy and quiet troll is a living door mat definitely doesn’t help. Eridan holds no respect for someone like that, someone who won’t defend themselves, who won’t stand up for themselves. As far as Eridan’s concerned, Tavros asked for everything that happened to him, he could have fought back, but he didn’t. That and maybe he’s okay with the misery he was put in, considering Vriska dumped his ass and went to Tavros, whatever he’s not jelly.
In johto though, Tavros has continued to try to be helpful and nice, but Eridan really just kind of snuffs him. He doesn’t care and probably won’t ever. He thinks Tavros is still useless and if he could avoid talking to that embarrassment to the trolls species he’d be sure to do it, but that doesn’t mean he won’t talk to him if he contacts him, he just won’t be nice about it. But then again, when is Eridan ever nice?

Homestuck • Bullieve
Sollux Captor
♊ "Because I thought maybe if you were bothering asking you weren't completely hopeless after all. But I was wrong, you're still a retarded douchebag."
To be fair, the hate that Eridan feels for Sollux was definitely more so out of spite, than anything that the mustardblood did himself. The girl he was flushed for turned his back on him and went into the arms of this landdwelling mutant, and that was a capital offense! Instead of necessarily being mad at Feferi, he turned it all on Sollux, wanting to eventually hunt him down and duel him, as if that would change Feferi’s mind. Predictably, Sollux won the fight, and Feferi of course stayed with Sollux, allowing Eridan to go back to his planet alone and miserable. More has happened between the two in the veil, but it’s all been hearsay to him really, seeing as it’s nothing he himself has experienced, but he does know that he eventually gets the upper hand against Sollux, even if it ends somewhat unfortunately for other parties involved.
But as for his time here in Johto, Sollux is still the annoying, undeserving, pukeblood per usual, but there’s something less bellicose between them. Maybe it’s because Sollux is past the point of their second duel, having lost his vision and voices, so that constant irritation isn’t there to upset him as easily, Eridan’s not sure. He still carries strong feeling of resentment towards him, even if they can somewhat carry on a conversation(If you can call that pointless bickering conversation) without things spiraling out of control like before. There’s definitely black feelings lingering for Sollux, even if he denies it, he has his pride after all and he’s not about to just own up to having such feelings for someone he thinks is so far below him.
He might make advances, say things that should be recognized for the black advances they are, but he’ll deny them regardless. He just can’t help himself when it comes to Sollux, everything about him just sets him off, most the time in that I-wanna-punch-you-in-the-face-but-kiss-you-at-the-same-time sort of way.

Karkat Vantas
♋ "Yeah, a fucking thing. Shit, Ampora, some of the things you do are just downright pitiful, okay?"
There’s a lot that Eridan could say about Karkat. At first their friendship started off as something pretty simple, Eridan needed advice for the mess of a relationship he got himself into with Feferi, but as time went on he started to rely more and more on him, especially after he inevitable break up between him and his moirail, not to mention the rejection that followed. Seeing as Karkat was the only one who really put up with his shit, it’s understandable why Eridan started to have red leanings towards the mutant blooded troll.
His time in Johto only cemented it. With the two traveling together and tolerating each other through out their trek to Goldenrod, he’s grown even more fond of the fellow former troll. Even with Karkat’s rough attitude and tough outer layer, it hardly off puts the sea troll. In fact, he somewhat relates in a way. Spending all this time with Karkat’s made it obvious to him just how much he actually stresses and exerts himself for the sake of others--something Eridan probably wouldn’t have noticed before, seeing as Eridan is usually too busy with himself, but this time away from the veil, away from the mess that happens back there definitely has given the prince the chance to look a past himself, even if only a little bit. Though with it, he's been able to find new pity, directing it at the troll who wasn't even suppose to be, what with his blood anomaly and everything, and to be honest, it's freeing to be able to pity like this, but to also BE pitied.
Not to mention Karkat was also the one who informed him of what happens in the veil, what he does, but didn’t push him away. He’s still holding him responsible, but he’s hardly abandoning him like he’d expect. Karkat’s never abandoned him, actually, and maybe that’s part of what draws the seadweller to him. The fact that when he needs, Karkat provides. He can only hope now, with this new Matespritship between them, he can give a little more than before, which wasn’t much at all, but he wants to make this work.
