So what are you gonna do when they outlaw all that superheroin' nonsense you all lowe so damn much?

[to his credit, he's trying to sound grave. (it isn't working.)]

We take this - and we're goin' to, since we got such big pushers for mustard-bellied diplomacy in charge around here - they ain't gonna be satisfied 'til they got us all on leashes. And at the first signs a dissent, they're gonna hang us by 'em. I sure hope you lot can handle the usage a our powers bein' a criminal offense, since that's the next thing to go. A Wulcanus gun in ewery Natiwe hand and a trackin' chip in ewery filthy imPort, right?

[a ~~theatrical~~ pause. contrary to his usual habit of getting worked up in his tirades, eridan's been very calm (albeit smug in his "my unreasonable paranoia was entirely justified" kind of way) but no less intense throughout.]

We start goin quietly into that good fuckin' nocturnal phase and we aint newer gonna stop.

What are your plans?

Well, considerin' my record and the fact that Ed'll toss my ass back in prison for basically any fuckin' thing he can get his paws on, I can't exactly start any shit myself.

[his tone of voice suggests he's not telling the entire truth!!]

Your expecting others to do your dirty work?

I am royalty.

Then lead by example.

Should I start writin' my speeches?

Start by a few heavy blows to Vulcanus.

You lendin' a helpin' flipper on that, or should I just start shootin' in ewery direction 'til they show up?

Which ain't by itself a bad idea, really.

I'm trying to dig them out.

Well, call me if you ewer need anythin' rude and oppressiwe that needs shootin' full a holes. I got the time.

Oh, I have actually. He's both rude and oppressive. I'd pay well.

Nice try, but there ain't a person out there who's got the fuckin' globes to make a go at offin' me.

I wasn't actually talking about you, for once.

Do tell.

A former guardian of yours. Think you could fill him full of holes if I paid you enough?

It'd hawe to be a whole hell of a lot to hawe me riskin' Felicia handin' my ass to me.

[THAT'S RIGHT KEEP THAT STRAIGHT UP DON'T GIVE A FUCK BRAVADO GOING]

That sounds like an excuse to me.

I didn't say I wouldn't.

I just said I'd need a fuckin' shipload a cash to do it.

Mm, he's not worth that much. Sounds more like you're afraid.

Or that I'm tryin' to put my reasonable fortune from Alternia back together.

Take your pick.

I think I was more accurate.

And I think you're either full a shit or just fuckin' stupid.

Fact a the matter bein' that I could kill anybody if I had good enough incentiwe to. And killin' Ed would be like stompin' a wiggler.

You still have feelings for him, don't you?

Feelins of... platonic hatred?

[UGH]

Feelings of kinship.
