♒ 1st Video; ♒ + ♏
[After some fussing, Eridan decides that maybe video would be the best option, especially with what he has to say! So hello Johto--and Kanto, certainly hope you were ready for a screen full of Eridan’s face, and the exaggerated expression of disdain that accompanies it. There might even a bit of a pout with it! But it certainly is him for those who are familiar, black hair, pretentious purple streak, just pinkish skin instead of grey, no zigzag horns, and certainly no fins! How dreadful!]
You know, I was pretty alright where I was, sure bein’ sawed in half was hardly my ideal way to go, but I could deal with bein’ dead. Kinda got used to it after the first--fuck, I don’t ewen KNOW how long.
[He pulls the ‘gear back to let the network get a niiiice look at him.]
This howewer? Bein’ some inferior species, lackin’ horns and fins and--
Eridaaaaaaaan!
[That drawn out shout comes from somewhere out of view, but the girl responsible can soon be heard jogging over.]
Man, I thought that was you with your awful cape. And the hair. And the scarf! You're pretty hard to miss, huh?
[She ducks into view, peering at his Pokegear like it's hers to look at. Those who know Vriska might notice she's missing her glasses.]
Wris--!
[He’s certain surprised by her coming over, but then she’s putting her face all in HIS space and getting in his way! In the next moment, he’s definitely trying to push her away, palm meeting her face and shoving!]
Did I fuckin’ say you could be in this wideo? No I didn’t, get the fuck back, Serket!
Ugh, hey!
[Vriska grabs at his hand and shoves her other hand at his side, trying to win back the space she stole.]
Don't be a dick! Did you ever stop to think maybe these people want someone better to look at? What if they want to know I'm here?
--Gamzee, if you're seeing this, I've got words for you!
No one better to look at exists, Wris, and if you’re tryin’ to imply yourself, let me be the first to tell you the known uniwerses did a impossible task and made you look ewen worse than you did as a troll!
[But he’s certainly fighting her for that space, shoving and pushing and--welp he just dropped the pokegear! What a lovely view of the grass and shoes.]
Fuck--you made me drop it, you worthless hag! Also, who giwes a fin flippin' fuck about Gam--
[Unseen by the viewers, Eridan is snatching the pokegear, and in the next instant the feed cuts.]
(ooc: Blue is Vriska, violet is Eridan, both will be replying also! And there's some warnings you might want to know about Vriska, so if you would, direct yourself to her permission post, please and thank you!)

You don't even know. I think he got MORE crazy somehow.
I don't know how to explain that outfit he was wearing otherwise.
He's not even god tier, so what the fuck.
If August is the eighth month, though, that was my first thought!
8ut Megido told me that would put me as having Nepeta's sign, so I changed my mind and picked a Scorpio day.
text;
oh and just to get it out of the way because i'm sure it will come up in some way or another: i was brought here kind of early in the adventure. especially compared to everybody else. i hadn't even gotten jade into the game yet.
so there are a lot of things i don't know. though past-you, rose, and karkat have tried to fill me in on stuff so i'm not completely blind.
oh right! i didn't think about the zodiac. makes sense.
text;
Wow, though. You haven't even gone reached god tier yet, have you?
I don't know all what they told you, 8ut I could fill in the gaps for my part if you ask.
Not that I stayed on the meteor long. Looks like you already knew that part.
text;
not that it matters much here.
i did know that though, yes. last time you were here it was right after terezi stabbed you.
so the whole not on the meteor thing was kind of implied there.
but i know about god tiering, rose going off the grimdark deep end, my dad, the scratch, splitting up for three years to head to the new session...not that i have an idea what i'm up to doing those three years.
jade's stuck in the same place i am and she's the only one who would know so we're both in the dark about any and all travel adventures.
text;
All I've 8een doing is wandering around the dream 8u88les until Gamzee pulled that stunt earlier.
8ut I did see you.
Altern8 you, I mean. You remem8er when Terezi tricked you into dying?
Or........ what happened in your timeline instead?
That's the one.
text;
or tried to do it.
whatever. dave came back, sprited himself, and stopped me from being dumb.
that is basically what happened instead.
i didn't realize there were alternate mes around though.
then again i don't really know much about the dream bubbles. just that the meteor has passed through a lot of them and they met a bunch of dead teenage-ancestor ghost trolls.
i didn't realize there would be dead alternate mes in there though.
so i guess that means we have both met each other in person already, huh?
text;
The surprise noodle was not meant to ask for an explanation.
8ut there are SO many altern8 people around, from all sorts of timelines, where all sorts of things went different.
Did you know Aradia had a whole army of altern8 Aradias she used as our time player?
Now imagine that eeeeeeeevery doomed timeline there ever was had their players wind up in the dream 8u88les. That's pretty much how it works.
And yeah, sort of.
To 8e honest I was kind of disappointed you didn't remem8er me at first.
8ut we got to know each other again, so it wasn't too 8ad.
Haha, we even d8ted for a while.
text;
[Haha, we even d8ted for a while.]
[d8ted for a while.]
[d8ted]
we did? er...he did? and you?
uhm
well how did that go?
if that's not a horribly awkward question to ask.
[Because that is the important thing here, clearly.]
text;
No need to 8e nervous. It went fine!
And it's not an awkward question.
We just didn't work out in the end, no 8ig deal, so we 8roke up.
We kept in contact afterward and met up now and then.
Until he died, at least. 8ut from what Aradia tells me future me's got a plan to deal with that situ8tion.
text;
i mean what if alternate doomed other me did something dumb that impacted our friendship? it's a perfectly reasonable thing to be curious about.
[Though now she has him feeling like he should tell her about the whole moirail thing. Why is teenage romance so complicated?]
actually, to tell you the truth i am a little relieved.
because rose and i are dating and last time you were here you uh...yeah.
basically rejecting you once was bad enough and it's not something i wanted to have to go through again.
[WHY CAN'T HE BE CASUAL AND NONCHALANT ABOUT THIS LIKE VRISKA? Seriously, it shouldn't be this hard and this is pretty much the perfect time to bring it up. Since they're talking about it and all.]
[You can do it dude. You can--]
wait he died? i thought he was ALREADY dead.
[Smooth.]
text;
If he jeopardized our friendship somehow do you think I'd 8e talking this casually to you?
If anything, I would have made sure you knew, either out of anger or to make sure you didn't fuck up!
Congrats on you and Lalonde, though.
Guess you've got a thing for light players? :::;)
And he was!
He died again.
This 8ig green alien dude Aradia told me is called Lord English killed him and a 8unch of other dead people.
text;
i did get a little worried for nothing, huh?
just a little bit though!! i am still completely calm over here.
thanks though.
but you are right about that. i am rather fond of my ladies of the light. ;)[Now...how the hell to word this?]
which you technically used to be last time you were here.
like...more than in the friendly sense of the words.
like in the pale sense of the words.
just thought you should know.
also i did not know that ghosts could die twice.
[Look see? We can be cool and casual about this just like Vriska! Okay pressing send now before he has the chance to second guess this.]
text; (1/2)
W8, pale?
As in... moirails?
text; (2/2)
I didn't know either!
Not until it happened.
I'm still not sure how exactly it works, 8ut that part doesn't matter if the end result is still dead ghosts.
text;
pale as in moirails.
that's good to know though, i guess.
we can't die here but if by some chance i ever do manage to become a ghost i will be sure to watch out for my undead mortality.
[Why are they still talking about double dead ghosts?]
text;
I........ never thought of things that way.
I didn't even know you would 8e interested in quadrants. Though I guess moirallegiance might 8e less weird than others to a human.
[There's a pause, as she debates something.]
Should I ask how it ended?
If not, that's fine too.
It doesn't even m8tter really.
text;
i still don't get the whole kissmehatefist thing and the other thing with the hate threeway makes even less sense to me.
even though moirallegiance really isn't so strange from a human's standpoint, like you said, it still wasn't something i had considered ever being a part of until you asked.
it ended when you left.
obviously it doesn't work with only one person so...that was that.
just so we're clear though, i am not expecting for us to just pick things back up now that you're back.
you don't remember anything so that wouldn't really be fair.
as long as we are still friends that is good enough for me.
text;
It's a little strange to think I'm the one who asked........
8ut I suppose I had reasons. I just can't remem8er them, right?
Me leaving must have sucked for you, too.
If you're okay just 8eing friends, though, I'm perfectly happy to keep doing that.
text;
i am just...not wired that way i guess?
but it probably goes without saying that. human and all.
granted, i didn't really *understand* understand moirallegiance until you came along so maybe it's just a lack of first hand experience.
not that i have any desire to run right out and do that.
but yeah you're right on both counts.
johto likes to take memories away sometimes when it brings people back for some unfathomable yet infuriating reason.
and you leaving sucked balls. granted that has been true of every time you've left, regardless of our relationship status.
perfectly ok. i promise. :)
i actually...wasn't planning on telling you any of this. but since you told me about you and alt doomed me i kinda felt like i owed you the same?
[It's true that he still has some pretty strong feelings of the diamond variety for her but...they did the awkwardly obligated pale-dating thing once already. It may have ended up working out okay last time but this time he wants it to be done for the right reasons from the get-go.]
text;
You have your pranks going for you, 8ut it takes more than that to make a good rivalry work.
You're say I've 8een here more than once 8efore this?
Here I thought it was only one. How many times have I shown up 8efore?
I just hope not remem8ering doesn't come 8ack to 8ite me in the ass. ::::/
I don't know if I can say you owed me for that.
8ut at the same time, I am kind of glad you came clean.
This way all the awkwardness is neatly cleaved down the center, you know?
text;
hating people aside, i'm not really crazy about the idea of being romantically involved with two people and i bet rose isn't either.
like...you know, kissing-related romantically involved. moirallegiance is ok.
this makes your fourth time now. i doubt it will bite you though.
there just might be some people from other worlds who will recognize you but i'm pretty sure you didn't grievously offend anybody.
at least, you didn't tell me if you did.
i agree. i actually feel a lot better now that that's off my chest.
[Communication is gr8.]
text;
Having only one quadrant filled I get. I've 8een there. Still, I would want to fill the others eventually.
8ut nope, no trou8le like that.
Well, okay. So one chick got kinda fed up with me.
I didn't know her, though, and she didn't know me either. No harm done!
You seeeeeeee? That's exactly what I meant.
text;
oh, one person i know who will definitely remember you and be glad to see you back again is the other father.
not sure if you've heard from him yet. tall guy, brown hair, wears glasses.
speaks in a sing-song voice, you'll know him when you see him.
and yes, you were right. as always. :P
anyway, now that potential awkwardness has been neatly chopped in half and done away with we can get back to the pokemon stuff it you want.
and the human stuff, now that i think of it.
unless aradia or somebody beat me to that.
text;
How can there 8e an "other" father?
Can't you just use his name????????
Not Aradia, 8ut Kanaya told me there's unpleasant stuff a8out 8eing a human.
Not what, though. She said it could w8, whatever it is.
Hmmmmmmmm.
Oh. Would you like to see my Joltik?
text;
it's a little strange but basically in his world, every child has a second set of parents to take care of them if their real ones don't/won't.
they are the other mother and the other father.
so basically he's everyone's dad if you ever need him!
ah well then...if you want to wait for kanaya to explain it to you since she's a girl and it's kind of a girl thing, that's fine.
it's nothing really terrible exactly, like you aren't going to die or anything. but it can be a little shocking if you don't know it's coming.
i would love to see your joltik though.
