Dead Angels for a Prince Ghost

Chapter 2 : Too late

Your name is Sollux Captor.

And those god damn imps surely are annoying. Your shitty land is even more annoying. EVERYTHING is annoying.

Those prototyped bastard are everywhere in and out of your hive, just being dorks and flipping over your stuffs. Plus, your land is a real inferno. It's hot and the landscape looks particularly awful since it's literally made of floating brains. Fucking. Floating. BRAINS.

"HISS"

A small imp entered in your respiteblock, slammimg the door open. It glared at you with its unique eye, clacking its crab claws in your direction, trying to be intimidating. You don't wait any longer to put an end to its little scene, throwing it out the window with your psionics. No time to deal with this shit, you're busy. Feferi's hive ain't going to upgrade itself.

CG: HEY FUCKFACE.

CG: HAD FUN MAKING OUT WITH YOUR FISH GIRLFRIEND WHILE I WAS FREAKING OUT OVER YOUR DEAD BODY?

TA: eheh, why? youre jealou2?

You snickered as you saw the grey text appear on the screen. Karkat seemed so worried during the short time you were dead because of the vast glub. It was a chance that Feferi could already reach the portal to your land to revive you.

CG: JEALOUS OF WHAT? NOT BEING ABLE TO SMOOCH A DEAD NERD?

CG: WELL NO THANKS, NECROPHILIA AINT MY SHIT.

TA: yeah, 2ure. youre on the top of the lii2t two revive me next tiime however.

CG: NO

CG: DONT YOU DARE DIE AGAIN SHITSTAIN

someone else started trolling you. You opened the new tab, leaving Karkat an instant. It was Aradia. She barely spoke to you since the beginning of the game. You quirked an eyebrow and started answering.
