Even if he was being that way...you...you know better than that. Than this. [When Equius makes that noise of pain, Lucas winces and softly pets his hair. After a brief pause, he sighs.]
We have...hope to get out of here. For the first time ever. You shouldn't be fighting with each other like this. You're...making my hair turn gray, d-dude.
I understand. But I also understand that you can...control it. You obviously feel bad about it...because your conscience is weighing on you. I always thought you and Eridan might...relate to each other.
[Lucas keeps petting his head, not picking him up again but not moving away.]
...turning my hair gray. It--humans' hair turns gray, when they get old. Or...stressed, in my case.
also wtf are you and eridan pestering about
are you seriously bitching at each other right now

...You don't understand. H-how angry I get.
[He pauses, then gives Lucas a confused look, squinting at him behind his sunglasses.]
...I'm...what?

[Squinting further, Equius leans closer to Lucas, peering at his hair intently.]
...It isn't, though. That...you must be joking. That makes no sense at all.

[He can't help but smile a little crooked at that. Lucas shrugs.] No. It's true. Maybe you can't see it yet but...it's on it's way. Trust me.

...You may hold me, now.

...I just thought...that it was hard to control your anger when your moirail is--
--temporarily not...here.
He doesn't really have one at all.
Isn't that relate-able?

...He flirts with Vantas all the time. When he shouldn't.
It most certainly is not relatable.

[He pets Equius's hair, keeping him close and trying to...calm him down? That wasn't the word, because he's not not calm. But trying to comfort him.]
For me, at least.

[Equius leans slightly into Lucas's stroking hand.]
...Not like I am.

[...Lucas just...leans down and kisses the top of his head.]
...you know we have an extra room, in my apartment. My block, I mean.

[Equius grunts.]

...I would bet that you have already offered it to A-Ampora.
...The "apartment" is your hive. Your...room. Is your block. Your respiteblock, actually.

...and I didn't. When I saw we had an extra room, I kind of assumed...you would use it. Maybe you and Jade could split it, when you guys wanna stay.
