♒ 5th Accidental Video/Text

[It certainly has been a while since anyone has seen or heard the overbearing Prince of Hope, and what ever fears of his departure there may have been will soon be quelled entirely as the feed clicks on. However, it's at an awkward angle that shows more sky and tree tops than anything else. After a few moments, the gear gets nudged by something, and beyond a few more strands of grass filling the screen, there's also a small view of Eridan, who looks like he's spent the last three weeks asleep in the woods... which he has. He's also got some things wriggling on him.]

Wha... th'fuck--

[His voice sounds dry and crackly, like he hasn't had a drink in forever... Which he hasn't. He has only just now noticed all the caterpie and weedle having a party on his previously unconscious body - is that a metapod?? Cue some unflattering near-strangled yelps of surprise escaping him as he desperately tries to beat the things off of him. In the scuffle, he hits the gear and unfortunately cutting the show short.]

[However, not long after a text message sends out, him of course not realizing a video was even broadcasting his less than graceful battle against the nuzzling overgrown caterpillars:]

i suppose i should rescind my disbelief of aras wwarnings about the random bouts of sleep that happen to people here
for it seems ivve spent the last three quarters of the perigee in the wwoods
unconscious
i suggest you take this opportunity for howwevver rare it is of one to feel free to tell me that you told me so ara because any other time i wwont alloww it
that being said i wwould officially like to make this post into some sort of recruitin measure because i cant rightly continue on wwith the idea that i may pass out at any givven moment
for all im more than capable of takin care of myself this wworld seems to enjoy placing hurdles wwhere they dont belong
for all wwho are interested in the regal duty of assistin the prince of hope tell me about yourselvves because im not going to alloww my personal safety lie in the hands of some incompetent shitsponge wwhos got the social grace and common sense of a fuckin rock
and it aint like i can rely on those from my owwn univverse any

[Speaking of depressing topics. Roxy's smile falters a little at the mention of that city, but she holds it like a champ.]

Guess we'll be spendin' some time in the sky then. Pewter's the first place I stayed in when I got here, Jane had me like, immediately head there when I arrived an' we chilled there to train to get my badge. She ended up leavin' right before I got it, then I came here to take a newbie up to Olivine cause he wanted to be near the ocean.

But that just means I totes know the way there and how long it takes, we're gonna have some fun hangin' in the sky for 'bout a week once we head on our way. Castor can go about five and a half hours without a break, usually good to go again after another hour or so which can totes be used for meal times. So if that's what you wanna do, won't be any prob at all.

[Better her than him when it comes to these depressing topics.]

I'm alright with that. Like I said, I'm pretty much a fuckin' master a the skies, and I'd hawe no right to lay such a claim if a few days suspended in the fuckin' air would cause me any iota a distress.

[A beat.]

Too bad about your friend leawin' though. But it's the wery nature a this place it seems.

Ain't no big deal, I had somethin' to hit up pretty quick after I got my badge. An' hey, I think of it like this. I got to hang with Haru cause of it, and now getta hang with you, so it's obvs not all bad bein' on my own.

[It really is better her than him, she can always see the light in any situation. Optimism is her best trait.]

If that's how you wanna look at it, Rox.

I hear people make a habit a returnin', so there may be some hope for your friend yet.

[Eridan is so foreign to optimism, he might even be allergic to it.]

[If he's allergic to it, he'll be breaking out in hives within a few days of being around her.]

Yeah, so I've heard. Guess we'll see, but till then not like it's somethin' to worry about. How can you enjoy yourself if you're too busy thinkin' 'bout depressing shit? Gotta keep our eyes forward Eri, that's the way to live.

[Eri? How... cute.]

I guess. [That's very unconvincing.] I ain't too worried, there ain't many here I'd miss if they went and wanished on me.

[HE DOESN'T HAVE MANY FRIENDS Y'SEE...]

[She really likes cute nicknames.]

Yeah, there aren't too many I'd notice if they were gone either, but it's def a rising number. Cause I got Haru on top of Rose and the others, and now you too. So you'd better not bail until we can have our awesome sky adventure. If I'm gonna watch your back, you gotta be here for that otherwise I'm out of a job.

Beliewe me, I ain't got any intention a goin' back to where I came from. For all this place is bee ess, I prefer still bein' aliwe.

[The dream bubbles were bullshit.]

And it'd be mighty uncouth a me to hire someone and disappear on them before they can ewen do their job.

Man, I feel ya. I mean, I kinda wanna go back cause I know my friends need me, but bein' trapped in jail totally blew and I'm not lookin' forward to it. This place, there's so many more people, so much more freedom to just explore, it's pretty awesome. It's like livin' inside of a video game.

[The most awesome video game ever. With Pokemon, you're never alone.]

So yep, you're stuck with me till you prove you don't need me around anymore.

Considerin' what Sgrub was, I beliewe we both know what liwin' in a wideo game is like.

So long as you prowe useful, then you'we no worries a me tossin' you like unwanted garbage.

[Yeah, he's got a point there.]

A better video game that doesn't totally suck. And you ain't got nothin' to worry about, I'm like, the most useful person ever, you'll see. I like to think I'm a woman of multiple awesome talents, so I ain't worried about that.

I guess I'll hawe to wait with baited breath to see these self proclaimed talents then.

Well, we'll have plenty of time for that so I got full confidence you'll learn pretty quick just how awesome I am.

[And while it's on her mind, she may as well comment. Her grin widens a fraction before she speaks again.]

Personally, I'm lookin' forward to hearin' more of that adorable accent of yours.

[That certainly is a strangle sound of embarrassment leaving Eridan. That certainly caught him off guard.]

[....Give him a few moments.]

Uh... Well, I--

[Wow, smooth Ampora.]

You--think it's adorable?

[God, she has been slathering him with compliments and he really isn't sure how to take it. Sure, he has a lot of pride and confidence for the most part, but he's so used to having to combat and prove his worth, etc, that this is just so unreal, in a way.]

[She hears that sound of embarrassment and it makes her giggle. Just as planned, wow, he's easy to fluster.]

What'd I say before? I don't say stuff I don't mean, you gotta start believin' me 'bout these things. If I tell you something, you can know for a fact I totes mean every word of it.

[He is not used to people genuinely complimenting, don't judge him!]

Oh.

[A beat.]

Well, thanks. With any luck you'll be hearin' for a while yet.

Edited 2013-10-06 03:25 (UTC)

You gettin' so easily flustered is pretty cute too, ya know.

[Yeah, she'll follow this guy around for a while and see how that goes. If this convo is anything to judge by, it'll definitely be some fun at least.]

I ain't flustered. I'm surprised, there's a difference.

[HUFFFFFFF....]

Whatevs you wanna call it Eri.

[And that grin on her face says that she doesn't believe that shit at all. Totally flustered.]

Whatewer.

[He's just... so glad she can't see him right now. eugh.]

Don't you got miles to burn or somethin'?

Yeaaaah, maybs. But that doesn't change the fact that you're still cute flustered.

[She was contemplating waiting till morning, but he's got a point. If she starts today, she can get some night flying in for sure.]

Anyway, I need to get myself properly cleaned up now that I'we myself a room here.

So. Just gonna... let you go so you can get goin' yourself.

[Honestly, he does enjoy talking to her, he just doesn't know how to handle this constant flattery. He likes it, definitely, but he's been starved of this sort of attention, so it's a bit overwhelming.]

Yeah, yeah, I got ya. A prince should always be looking his best after all.

[Unfortunately for Eridan, she talks way too much.]

Was gonna ask you a couple more things, but I guess they can wait. I've totes got plenty of time for that later.

...Like what?

[You HAD to go and get him curious, now didn't you?]

Liiiike, wonderin' if you're into sparrin'. Trainin' pokebros is awesome and all, but I get kinda restless myself, ya know? And since I don't got my rifle to practice with, sparring is the next best idea. Haven't found anyone up for it yet, though guess I haven't been lookin' yet.
