Wwhat the hell? Is that Kanaya? Didnt I just fuckin kill her??? Wwhy is she glowwing? Wwhat the fuck is goin on heeee~ Eridan's train of thought was cut off when she walked up and snapped his want. A searing hot pain went through his midsection followed by numbness as the glowing, newly revived rainbowdrinking Kanaya sliced him in half with her chainsaw while uttering a vast war cry. She had kicked the infernal clown in the bulge and possibly hit some people? The numbness was followed by darkness.

Wwhat happened? Thought started to return to Eridan as he began to open his eyes. "Wwhere am I?" He put a hand on his aching head.

"You died kid. You just got here, wvelcome to the dream bubbles!" A voice pierced through his thoughts and Eridan fully opened his eyes to see another sea dweller, finned ears and all, bearing the same symbol as his on a white shirt with a leather jacket. His hair was slicked back and he had a human smoke stick in his mouth. He reached out a hand to help Eridan up off the floor.

"I... died?" He thought for a second. "Oh... yea... Kan and her stupid fuckin chainsaww..." He looked at the older boy who greeted him. His eyes were white, as were the eyes of everyone else he would come across.

"My names Cronus." He smirked, he was deviously sexy. Eridan felt a light blush across his face.

"The name's Eridan." He straightened himself up and tried to look as dignified as he could despite being about 6 inches shorter than Cronus. He firmly shook the other Ampora's hand. He realized that Cronus wasn't wearing the jewelry of someone in his blood caste. He went to pull his hand back after the aforementioned handshake when Cronus gripped it a little too tightly.

"You're pretty cute." He winked after Eridan snatched his hand back.

"Don't evven try to flirt wwith me you freak." He stormed off, feeling violet blood rushing to his cheeks. Eridan, who perused relationships in ANY quadrant with ANY troll, didn't understand why he suddenly felt so hostile towards someone who was probably doing the same thing. Maybe he already had a black crush?

This went on for weeks, Cronus flirting with Eridan, shutting Cronus down, usually punching him in the face. But Eridan always went home with a smile. One night he heard a knock at his door and opened it to find a note.

"Got a surprise for you chief ;)"

Surprise? Right... probably another excuse for some red flirting, Cronus was on a completely separate wave length. But Eridan was curious, so he headed for Cronus's place.

Eridan smelled sea air as he approached Cronus's hive, which was unusual despite his being a sea dweller, neither one of them had been in the water since before they died. He opened the door.

"Wwhat's this about a surprise you cod suckin douche?" He said before he was greeted with a sight he never thought he'd see. There, on Cronus's couch sat, almost 7 feet tall and built like a tank was a man in purple and black stripped pants, wearing purple armor bearing the Aquarius symbol and his arms were covered in the gold jewelry of the royal bloods along with a full length, wide collared violet cape, he turned to look at Eridan, showing the two jagged scars that the man shared with Cronus.

"Orphaner Dualscar..." Eridan whispered in awe of the man he spent most of his life role playing. The closet thing that he has ever had to a hero. His ear fins fluttered open with shock, revealing purple webbing.

"Call me Captain, kid." His voice was deep and gravely, he lacked the wavy manner of speaking that Eridan and Cronus shared, his voice was confident and very solid, as if it were concrete. Eridan's ears turned down with embarrassment.
