This is a little late coming, but I've had shit to do before I could sit here and brag.

[ which means, of course, Karkat is showing off his shiny badge. ]

One elite battle down, six more to fucking go. And I will do it.

I know there are people out there that have completed both the Johto and the Kanto circuit, so I've got to know: what comes after? Am I going to be bored out of my goddamn think pan or should I just be content to plant my ass somewhere?

Whatever he said, it was probably twisted and warped to ensure he looked like the goddamn victim.

I'm not interested.

You can't just ditch him like that! It's not right! You two were in a relationship he said; you can't even remain friends?

I was in a relationship with the previous incarnation of that brinesucking asshole! A relationship that only existed here and without those memories, it doesn't mean a goddamn thing.

He wants friendship on his own terms, Pinky! He's not going to stand there in my hive, insult me and everything I presently stand for, and not be thrown out!

What about rebuilding that sort of relationship here? He's really hurt by this! [THAT'S NOT WHAT SHE HEARD BRO and did you just call her Pinky >8|]

I'm not interested in a guy that can't even recant about his murders, who believes sparing me displays an act of good will that I should put into consideration.

He doesn't want to build me fucking up or support me in the ways a good matesprit should. All he wants is someone to fill his goddamn quadrant.

[She can't help hesitating, frowning sharply about "murders" and letting out a concerned exhale.] ... If that's true, then no, I... don't see how that's simply a good thing. Being "lucky enough" to be liked isn't a good enough justification for hurting others.

[Plus, needs explanations on quadrants... but Eridan was going to explain. Add on that he has more things to really...... explain, now. Gonna have a chat with her buddy here, yup.]

It is true. He will tell you it was in self defense, but it wasn't. What he wanted to do, what he believed was the right thing, would have gotten us all killed. So a few of my friends were to stop him. He blew them fucking away.

Then he destroyed the Matriorb for no goddamn reason, the very egg that held the only way my race would be able to reproduce. So naturally when the caretaker retaliates, he killed her too.

But no. Eridan won't even fucking acknowledge that he fucked up. Believes that he's entitled to everything ever. Even my quadrant.

So fuck that shit.

[None of that sounds okay in the slightest bit. Not at all.]

... I see. I apologize for bothering you, but thank you for explaining. [It's worrisome, to say the least. No, she can't be sure he's telling the truth either, but it's only one half of the story. Cheria will have to talk with Eridan about the.. hurting people part; it's only then that she can bring herself to keep trying to help him. She can't find it in herself to help, if he's really responsible for so many deaths.]

A word of advice: take whatever he says with a grain of salt. He's completely biased when it comes to this stuff.

I made mistakes. I know that. I acknowledge and accept it. In the end, I have grown up. He needs to learn that too, even if it's the hard way about it.

[She nods quietly.] I understand. [Pausing, she offers a small smile.] Thank you.

[ shakes his head. ]

I'm still his friend, pinkstuff. But I can't be around him until shit changes.

I'm glad to hear that, at least. He seems very lonely.

[She is going to puff a breath though at being called 'pinkstuff'. Did he forget her name?] My name is Cheria.

He partially brings that upon himself.

...Obviously you know how I am so I'm not going to bother to say.

Yes, I remember from when you gave me a Woobat egg. [Actually, with the pokemon in question being mentioned, the Swoobat wings into view and perches gently on her shoulder.]

And did that work out for you?

[ he sees that beast. no way of knowing if it's the one they're talking of though. ]

It did. Her name is Sue. [Reaches up and lightly pets the critter on her shoulder.] She's really a sweetheart.
