FILTERED FROM KARKAT

[When the feed comes on there's the sound of something in the background, probably a TV or something, who knows. It takes a moment or two for Eridan to start talking, obviously distracted by whatever is making the sound. For those who are movie-savvy and can make out some of the lines, it might very well be from a romcom,

It's Karkat, right? Because I can totally hear my man John Cusack in the background.

Hm, well, the Serendipity route, a.k.a. the buy him gloves, take him ice skating and draw on his arm route is obviously the first choice here. But wouldn't it be too predictable?

[yerawizarderri]

Yeah it is. An', well shit.

[Wasn't expecting anyone to pick up on that...]

I was just watchin' it to pass the time is all, an' I got to thinkin' about askin' for some adwice. So I'm not lookin' to do ANY a that.

[HUFF.]

--But uh, what would YOU suggest?

[Filter][Audio]

[breathingheir]

Haha, okay? I thought you didn't like movies, though, but whatever!

I would suggest you take him walking to the beach at night! That is like unbelievably stupid and sappy, he'd probably love it. While you are walking at the beach, pull him close and tell him...

[ Clears throat. In a (not-so) suave voice: ]

"Karkat, if somehow you got short-term memory loss like Drew Barrymore at 50 First Dates, I promise I will be your Adam Sandler, minus the egg-shaped head, and make you fall in love with me everyday, forever."

If you can sing, sing "Somewhere Over the Rainbow".

It's not that I don't like them, I just don't watch them often. Sometimes I DO get into the mowie watchin' mood, alright?

[But the rest of that just... Is he for real? That just sounds... Kinda... Well.... Maybe not so bad, but he can't help but just stop a moment at that suggestion to sing some song he's never even heard of.]

I'm not goin' to sing, but walkin' on the beach sounds like a good idea, really. I'm... Not sure about the rest a that though, that seems kinda... Corny.

Who are you planning on romancing, Eridan?

[Awwww, young love. So cute, so innocent. Signless finds it very charming.]

filtered audio; Of course, after the thread with Karkat

[yerawizarderri]

[Oh. Man this is kinda awkward, with this being Karkat's ancestor and all.]

Uh, Kar, actually. What, are you some expert at romance or somethin'?

[... He IS Karkat's ancestor after all, so maybe...]

[withoutasign]

[Signless figured it was Karkat.]

I wouldn't say I'm an expert, exactly, but I've had a little experience with such things.

[Love that transcends the quadrants, blah blah blah.]

Why don't you start by telling me what you are already thinking about doing?

filtered audio;

[yerawizarderri]

[Love and pity are two different things GOSH!! But, whatever information he can get would definitely help!]

I figured someone like you would, all things considered.

But, well I know for starters a romantic fuckin' candle lit dinner would be nice, howewer a touch fuckin' cliche`, which is somethin' I wanna awoid if I can, so I'm tryin' to ponder up how to make the shit downright fuckin' special, y'know, somethin' that'll sweep him offa his feet an' all.

[But how do you out romance the romance expert??? How do you know if it's too bland, or too extravagant? fhl.]

[ACTION]

[sciencebipches]

[Yeah Karkat PROBABLY wouldn't have heard it at all if Eridan's finger had worked CORRECTLY and hit OFF instead of the volume button. Ignore his cursing and stammering as he actually hits the button he wants, turning the TV off.]

Uh... No. I was just watchin' uh--some Teewee, not any a your romcoms, I mean they're okay an' all but...

[Just gonna stuff that notepad between the cushions of the couch stealthily. Which means, not at all.]

[ACTION]

[yerawizarderri]

[Eridan's definitely not looking much like an antlerbeast in headlights now, not with how he's avoiding looking at Karkat's face as he protectively keeps his hand over the spot where the notepad was just shoved.]

Nothin' at all, Kar. So how was your little outin' an' all? Did ya just go for a walk, or did you go somewhere specific?

[Changing the subject, yep anything to distract from this embarrassing situation!]

[faygot]

Does it really all matter where you bros up and fuckin' go to? Important shit is all being there at together, right?

Audio; filtered

[yerawizarderri]

Yes it matters, Gam! It's important, puttin' thought into this shit, like where to go an' what to do an' ewerythin' a the like shows how much I fuckin' care about him. If I half ass this, that's hardly showin' any fuckin' consideration towards him at all!

Audio; filtered

[faygot]

[Man, when you put it like that it does kinda sound like a big deal. Maybe he should take his matesprit out on a date some time.]

Aight, if you all say so. You probably up and get this shit better than me anyway.

Can't you just all ask best friend though? Then you got the down low exact on what the motherfucker all be wanting for.

Audio; filtered

[yerawizarderri]

It doesn't work like that! 'Cos that's easy, askin' him what he wants. But it means more if I upright do it myself, if I make the date a good one without goin' to him to giwe me pointers. It just fuckin' means more that way.

[God Gamzee, this is like the basics!]
