So.

Any a you ewer had a nemesis before? Like fated fuckin' contentiousness, always gettin' up each others' gills doin' shit just to irritate 'em, duelin' to practically the death, maybe makin' out a little, that kinda thing.

See, I'm in the market for just that particular arrangement, and while I'm personally a master of the bellicose arts and don't need any adwice or nothin', I obwiously got a wested interest in how humans go about poorly imitatin' the quadrant. What with my bein' the main troll-human confidante in these parts and such.

[he pronounces it "con-fee-dawn-tay". also he means intermediary.]

Despite most of you bein' from a society bearin' a sewerely inferior romance system and therefore gettin' your emotions all scrambled up wrong from the get-go 'cos of it, I'd appreciate hearin' some personal tales.

I sure fuckin' could, were I so inclined.

...Discountin' direct power-related shit, like Gam's flash steppin' bullshit or bein' a goddamn wampire, but I could get the same effect with workarounds and whatnot.

What about the psychological capacity? What about making people think you're friendly with them, rather than an insecure egotist who shuns others while simultaneously craving their company?

[amoray]

One, fuck yourself.

Two, I could manage it.

[enigmaestro]

Maybe you should do it, then. They'll be the first to suspect you when an Eridan-sized criminal starts making headlines -- given them reason to doubt their own logic.

I'd rather make 'em prowe it's me than play nice.

[enigmaestro]

Don't look at it as "playing nice"; think of it as making their claim harder to prove.

[amoray]

I'll take it into consideration, how's that?

Meantime you can stop gettin' so cozy with the folk who tried to fuckin' murder me. Or did, whatewer.

Does you jealousy know no bounds?

[amoray]

Jealousy, murderous possessiweness, potato, potato.

[He pokes at the screen at that, frowning.]

I think you've threatened my life directly more than Norman has, by now. Isn't that disturbing to you, at all?

Even a little?

video; encrypted

[amoray]

Well, it's only natural. I see you on a more regular basis than he's got to.

And I newer said I'd murder you.

[enigmaestro]

I'd be highly surprised if they were your intended victims all the while.

You know I wouldn't care much for the consequence.

[amoray]

I newer said it was them either.

[enigmaestro]

Are you going to make this unbearable circuitous?

video; encrypted

[amoray]

I newer said I wasn't goin' to make this unbearably fuckin' circuitous.

I'm just sayin' - wonder a wonders, you actually got people you care about these days that ain't yourself or any a your imaginary friends.

[enigmaestro]

Question. Is your projection here amusing or not? I can't decide.

video; encrypted

[amoray]

Threatenin' you don't work for fuckin' shit unless I'm danglin' you off a buildin' or somethin', and I ain't real sure I can coax you up another one any time soon.

I'm just switchin' up my tactics.

[enigmaestro]

Well, it's an intriguing stratagem nevertheless. You know I encourage you to explore whatever method has the greatest probability of success.

video; encrypted

[amoray]

Is this one of 'em? A strategy with any kinda success probability or whatnot.

video; encrypted

[enigmaestro]

Halfway. I never really had "imaginary friends", but I certainly have more at stake in social investments now than before.

It's actually rather unnerving to consider.

[amoray]

See? I'm gettin' better at this whole threatenin' fellow superwillains thing.

[oh no eridan that's


precious.]

There's room for improvement.

[amoray]

I'd ask for tips, but I don't actually need 'em, so whatewer. I'll practice.

[on eddie.]

[enigmaestro]

In the meanwhile, how is your social reconfiguration going at that preparatory school?

[thinks all of this is funny]

video; encrypted

[amoray]

It's...

[beat.]

It's a work in progress.
