[The video feed clicks on, and whoever is holding the SFC is tall. The camera is pointed downwards, towards a very small, very feline little troll, who is crouched over something on the ground.]

What do you have there, Nepeta?

[That deeply amused, rumbling voice could only belong to one troll.]

I found Eridan! But he doesn’t want to get up!

[The camera gets readjusted, taking in more of the scene, and a very angry, very distressed, very fishy face comes into view.]

[The kitty troll noses at Eridan's side and then nudges him with her head until he rolls over, and again, and with a delighted giggle she pounces over to his other side to do it all over again. She’s in full-out playful kitty mode and it looks like she may have been at this for a while.]

Oh my fuckin' god, will the two a you leawe me the fuck alone! Nep! Nep fucking stop ROLLIN' ME like I'm your personal fuckin' cat toy! Goddamnit, I'm layin' here for a reason I mean fuck! What--What if you roll me offa somethin'! I could, fuckin' DIE or somethin'!

[A glance up towards the camera, his eyes growing wide with realization, not to mention dreaded embarrassment!]

Oh... FUCK YOU, EQ! Turn that shit OFF!

[He shifts, as if he's going to get up, but he doesn't. He merely resigns himself to his fate with a disdainful expression.]

Rude.

[OOC: answers could come from Equius, Nepeta, or Eridan... or all three!]

FUCK YOU! Don't call me flotsam you idiot! My name is ERIDAN AMPORA!

[HOW DARE YOU!]

I don't giwe a shit about your shitty wows, alright? I'm perfectly fine right here, an' no one needs to fuckin' bother me! Not them, not you, not ANYONE. I'm perfectly safe here.

[redcladidealist]

Hey, I was just calling you what your friend called you. I thought that was your name!

[He scowls.]

You won't be fine if you have to run. Aren't there dangerous things in this place?

[unconchonable]

He's NOT my friend, we hate each other--howewer platonically, an' his stupid bullshit nickname for me does NOT need to be spreadin'!

[A flat look.]

Maybe in the fuckin' bubble, but I'm not there now am I?

[redcladidealist]

[He's not really believing you, you know. Lloyd knows all about friends who sometimes like making things difficult for you, and who you pretend to hate because you're annoyed. Besides, isn't Equius trying to help? And didn't he just say they were friends? Sorry, Eridan, the evidence isn't backing you up~]

Okay, fine, Eridan, then.

[He'll give you that much at least.

Wait.]

...you're not inside Vatheon?

[unconchonable]

[Oh Lloyd, if you only knew how much these two loathed each other.]

No, we're on the island. I'm guessin' you didn't know there was one, huh?

[redcladidealist]

[There's a lot Lloyd has yet to learn about Eridan.

...he'll learn, though. Someday all too soon he'll learn.]

There's an island? But I thought we were underwater.

[unconchonable]

Augh.. The BUBBLE is underwater, the island is abowe it. There's a fuckin' elewator, alright?

[redcladidealist]

Hey, I didn't know. You don't have to be so rude. I don't know everything about this place. I haven't been here that long.
