Obviously I'm too fucking busy doing important shit at the moment to answer your call. Leave your name and a mundane message and MAYBE I'll get back to you.
dave and i are heading over to saffron to pick up jane. idk if you saw jake's post a little while ago or not, but she could just use some time away from him and dirk right now. so yeah, we won't be gone long. just giving you a head's up. try not to have too much fun without us, ok? :P
i had a feeling that might be the case. basically there was a love triangle and jake picked dirk over jane. so probably better that you stayed away from it, to be honest. so it's nothing world-ending but +1 to the travel party for a while. just trying to keep everybody in the loop.
yeah, tell me about it. that's a love triangle for you though. there's no way everyone's going to end up happy in the end unless polygamy's involved. oh, that reminds me. are you ok? with eridan being back and all, i mean.
[Not that he was being nosy but their video conversation the day Eridan and Vriska returned cut out pretty quick, meaning one of two things: Eridan touched a nerve and Karkat hung up. Or Eridan touched a nerve and Karkat put on a filter.]
YEAH... THAT POLYGAMY THING ISN'T REALLY A VIABLE OPTION. I'M MOSTLY OKAY WITH ERIDAN BEING BACK. HE WAS AN UTTER SHITHEAD DURING THAT CONVERSATION, WHICH I'M SURE YOU AND ROSE WERE HONING IN ON. MOSTLY IT REVOLVED AROUND HOW I'M CLEARLY TOO HUMAN AND NOT TROLL ANYMORE SIMPLY BASED ON MY PRESENT ROMANTIC INCLINATIONS. OF COURSE I BASICALLY TOLD HIM TO GO FUCK HIMSELF WITH A RUSTY SPOON. MAYBE NOT IN THOSE WORDS BUT HE LATER CAME BACK AND APOLOGIZED, SO THERE'S THAT. NOT ENTIRELY SURE HOW SINCERE THAT IS SINCE IT COULD BE HIM JUST NOT WANTING TO BE ON EVERYONE'S SHIT LIST, YOU KNOW?
yeah, pretend i'm surprised about him being a shithead. that's really stupid though. i mean, there's more to being a troll than just the quadrants, right? so yeah. probably too early to say whether he's sincere or not. i am inclined to say it's probably the latter but i'm biased against the dude. at least he realized he fucked up? there's that i guess.
YEAH, EXACTLY. GRANTED, I STILL THINK THEY'RE THE BEST THING SINCE SLICED BREAD. THAT DOESN'T MEAN I'M GOING TO FORCE SOMEONE INTO THEM WHEN THEY AREN'T COMFORTABLE WITH THE CONCEPT. SERIOUSLY, THAT'S JUST FUCKING STUPID AND WHAT KIND OF FRIEND/BOYFRIEND WOULD I BE IF I DID THAT? A LOUSY ONE, THAT'S WHAT. BUT ERIDAN OFTEN REALIZES HE FUCKED UP, SO THAT'S REALLY A NON ISSUE. EVEN BEFORE THE GAME HE'D HIT ME UP TO WHINE ABOUT SHIT NOT GOING HIS WAY. I GUESS THE DIFFERENCE HERE IS THAT HE WASN'T ACTING COMPLETELY UPPITY AND SUPERIOR WHILE ADMITTING SOME FAULT.
super lousy, tbh. that's like...relationships 101 right there. friendship, romance or otherwise. so preaching to the choir there, man. ah, gotcha. so you think he might have actually meant it this time?

[Either way, it's probably not a good thing.]

ERIDAN IS USUALLY PRETTY PREDICTABLE.
