[Oh look folks, it's Eridan, seated and with his expression exactly the same as the icon depicts.

He spends a few moments in silence, just staring really.]

You're paranoid, they said. Are you alwways this wwhiny?, they said. Stop makin' up problems that aren't really there, they said.

Wwell felloww...no, not felloww, but, let me say this much those a' you so assured nothin' wwas gonna happen or come about from these guys bein' untrustwworthy.

Knoww that I take no pleasure in sayin' this, bu--wwell, wwho am I kiddin', a' course I do.

[He clears his throat, pauses, and thennnnnnn...]

I told you so.

[That is all. Admittedly he hadn't really 'worked out' anything through sheer intuition or intelligence, he was just a paranoid jerk and luckily for him things worked out purely by coincidence.

So of course he's not going to miss the chance to pretend he knew all along.]

Knew you were right about these bastards.

[Oh look, that's a proud expression on his face.

Then he sighs, and gives Eridan a look that quickly fades into a grin.]

But sayin' I told you so don't help you or the rest of us get out of this mess. So come on over; you can help me out.

[punk_cute]

Well there's sayin' shit and then there's bein' proactive, you know? If we're gonna get outta this, I think we gotta all work together, whether we like each other or not.

[He pauses and grins.]

Food! I got some I'm sure ain't been tainted, and I figure a lot of people here probably can't cook, so I'm makin' us all at least one meal that ain't been poisoned. You can cut up the vegetables.

[onemoredeath]

[ See the little quirk to his lips? See it? Takegami is finding this funny. ]

Of course you did.

Video

[caligulas_aquarium]

[He's still on video, but he says nothing. Instead Takegami will see Eridan messing around with the keyboard for a minute, before a link to this post comes up.

Then he sits back up straight and returns to staring at the camera.]

Read it an' wweep.

I did call this.

Video

[onemoredeath]

Did I sound as if I doubted you? [ The slight playfulness is gone. He was just teasing silly little troll. ]

Video

[caligulas_aquarium]

Oh.

It sounded pretty condescendin' if you ask me.

[uHhh...

tentatively:] ...E-Eridan? Are you going to stay here? Even though...[even though eVERYTHING IS WEIRD AND FULL OF POISON??]

Video

[caligulas_aquarium]

You're damn right I am. It's gonna take a little more than shit like this to drivve Eridan fuckin' Ampora awway.

They keep this up an' I'll showw 'em howw far they'll get tryin' a pull it off, wwhich means they wwon't at all, just you wwait an' see Mar.

[theguideless]

[oh no :(]

But...if it's poison...[slight pause.] You haven't gotten hurt or changed at all?

[caligulas_aquarium]

Not as bad as they probably wwould wwant me to havve. I still got enough sense to blast these fuckers if they keep this kinda shit up.

I ain't takin' to havvin' my ideals an' the like changed forcefully like they wwould a' wwanted to.

[district7]

Congratulations. You want a cookie?

[caligulas_aquarium]

No, just provvin' a point. I'm satisfied.

At least evveryone's awware noww that doubtin' me an' passin' my intuition off as paranoia is the biggest fuckin' mistake a' their bleak, miserable livves.

I think anyone with working brain cells could see this was coming.

[caligulas_aquarium]

Are you neww or somethin'?

Most a' these transports ain't exactly the smartest bunch outta the broodin' cavverns. Gotta spell stuff out for 'em, make it easy.
