Accidental video

[The SFC feed clicks on, showing a small, darkish bedroom and someone wrapped in blankets like a cocoon, completely swaddled and hidden. The feed rolls cheerfully along for a moment or two, until the blankets shift, falling away as the person under them props himself up on one elbow, his back to the camera. Even without seeing his face, it's pretty difficult to not recognize Equius Zahhak just by his size and broken horn alone.

He reaches out with one hand, fumbling for something on a small table on the other side of the bed. The camera catches just a glimpse of a glass full of water before it shatters in his grip, the breaking sound almost unbearably loud in the otherwise silent room.

Equius' shoulders roll forward, hunching in around his chest, and he appears to study his hand for a moment, watching a few trickles of blue blood run down his fingers, before he grunts and pulls the blankets back over his head. The blankets move around him as he curls into a ball and sighs, deeply, before he stops moving.

The feed keeps running for another couple of minutes before it cuts off.]

[Equius holds the strap to the side for a few moments longer before letting it fall back, covering the bruise. His smirk grows; he recognizes that he's gotten a rise out of Eridan. Those fins really are a dead give-away, sea-dweller, you should learn to control them.]

Not particularly, no. I just wanted you to know what I've been doing with my morning. How has your morning been? Spending it alone... as always?

[This isn't even counting the multi-colored bandaids that are currently hidden under his gloves. Equius has had a pretty good morning, all things considered, especially after how it started out.]

[Eridan grits his teeth, fins shaking a bit with anger.]

I'm enjoyin' myself just fuckin' fine. I don't need to know about how you spent your mornin' though, so stop solicitin' useless fucking rubbish information.

[Not touching that alone part because... After a week of having Karkat around, now that he isn't sticking around? Yeah... His hive feels that much more lonely. To the point it's almost agonizing...]

[My, this just keeps getting better, doesn't it?]

Really? You're sure your hive isn't awfully lonely and empty these days? That you aren't spending your mornings alone and useless? That you aren't secretly longing for the old days of us being roommates?

[Dismissive shrug and a flip of his hand.]

Too bad, Ampora, I'm not moving back in. You'll have to find another roommate.

[Click!][But if Eridan can't let this go when can he ever?, he's welcome to call back!]

[Oh he calls back and when he speaks his tone is dark and filled with fury.]

Listen here you assfuckin' hoofbeastlowin' piece a trash! I NEWER want your malodorous, repulsiwe, sweaty, FREAK of a husk EWER near my fuckin' hiwe again. It was hardly bearable endurin' it once in a life time, but the thought a it occurrin' again is enough to make me want to womit. My fuckin' sniff node can hardly take the mere thought a stomachin' such a fuckin' torturous ewent! I prefer my hiwe to not be filthied by such a rewoltin' abomination such as yourself, not to mention the AUDACITY you'we shown towards me despite my initial fuckin' KINDNESS I showed to you.

Just a impudent fuckin' wretch you are, Eq. It's fuckin' deplorable and if it wasn't for the fact you're Kar's kismesis and how I'we no intention a killin' anymore, I should fuckin' cull you for such lengths a disrespect.

So consider yourself lucky, you fuckin' filthy peasant, that such fortunate circumstances are in place and so your wasted existence is further prolonged.

[Oops, what's that, Eridan? Seems like Equius isn't home right now! Instead, enjoy the music he's conveniently left blaring into his SFC for you.

It's this song (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p3v8xOsP9X0), by the Alternian highblood group B100 October! If you listen closely, you might think that the lyrics are a bit... pointed, almost as if they're describing how someone else sees you.

... that's not a coincidence.]

[Eridan isn't really sure how to handle this blast of music? Cuz really? With the mood he's in? Yeah, it's just adding to his fury. He wants to yell, but it's obvious that won't do anything at this point. Instead he just... Turns off the SFC. He's done here.]
