[The video pops on, but the view is anything but what one would normally see if it was on purpose. First the wall can be seen and then the floor, oh look Eridan's shoes--]

--Goddamnit, where is he--Why isn't he--What.

[There's a pause as the Sea dweller realizes the video's on.]

...Fuckin' damnit.

[Repositioning of the SFC and it shows Eridan--

...Karkat's not here anymore?

[yerawizarderri]

hes just missin

[hexywitch]

I see.

...you're Eridan, right? Gamzee told me to tell you that I'm an Aquarius.

[yerawizarderri]

oh you are
wwell that wwas nice a gam and im sure youre better than the other person in this bubble that wwas a aquarius
he wwas nothin but fuckin insufferable
so uh howw do you knoww kar

[hexywitch]

I am. He also said that you don't believe in magic.

I just met him when the fish monsters attacked. We had an argument and I won and he hung up on me. So I suppose I don't know him at all. I just haven't been here for very long and he was one of the only people here I had a conversation with that lasted longer than five minutes. During the attack, one of my friends died and another is missing so...I don't know. I don't have much of a right to be upset about Karkat, but I am.

[yerawizarderri]

magic is a stupid fake thing its horsefeathers and fairytales

no i can understand hangin onto somethin like that you havve right to be upset i mean maybe not as much a right as i do but
if you dont havve much to begin wwith evven losin somethin small can suck but this is hardly somethin fuckin small for me
hes my moirail

Action

[hexywitch]

It isn't. I'm a witch.

...ah. I didn't know he was your moirail. I'm very sorry, Eridan. I know that Gamzee recently lost his as well. We've all had terrible luck here, lately, haven't we.

[yerawizarderri]

that hogwwash isnt magic

not wwas
he vvery much so still IS
anywway do you evven knoww wwhat that is

[hexywitch]

What hogwash? You haven't even seen what I can do.

Sorry. I didn't mean it like that.

I do. Karkat explained it to me. And Gamzee, although his explanation was difficult to understand.

[yerawizarderri]

magic isnt real so wwhatevver you are claimin to be magic ISNT it
so yeah its hogwwash

gam doesnt knoww wwhat hes sayin half the fuckin time so i can understand that
but thats good youre a step abovve most other humans

[hexywitch]

It is, though. I went to school for it and everything. I've got a wand and I can cast spells and make potions and fly on a broomstick. It's magic.

I'm sure that I can't fully grasp the emotion involved, as I'm not a troll, but the way it was explained to me made perfect sense.

[yerawizarderri]

i havve a wwand wwell wwait no kar has my wwand but i dont use magic i use SCIENCE
i dont knoww wwhat kinda school you wwent to but they lied
wwait
fly on a broomstick
wwhat

yeah its kinda a necessary thing for some trolls
im not one a them trolls but
wwell okay maybe i am a little but thats not the fuckin issue here kars just fuckin important to me and this FUCKIN place obvviously hasnt showw much much of a fuckin AUDACIOUS piece a SHIT it can be
till fuckin noww

[hexywitch]

A science wand? Now that's something I haven't heard before. How does one do science with a wand?

Yes, flying on broomsticks. We've even got our own sport on broomsticks. It's called Quidditch.

The way I understood it, every troll is looking to fill as many of their quadrants as possible, yes? I'd imagine every troll needs their moirail, whatever the circumstances.
