Dead Angels for a Prince Ghost

Chapitre 10 : Reunion

Your name is Feferi Peixes.

You were going to tell the sad news to everyone, just like you told Sollux before getting on your way. To make things easier, you opened a memo on Trollian and asked everyone to meet up at Karkat's. You're here waiting with the mutant troll for everyone to arrive. Terezi, Gamzee, Tavros and Vriska are already there, seemingly courious to know what's the problem.

"So, are you guys going to tell what's going on at last or not? I'm going to die out of boredom if I have to wait any longer..." Vriska whined.

"But, uh, not everybody is there yet. I guess we need to wait for them since Feferi said it was important..." Replied the bronze troll.

Vriska glared at him, but Gamzee cut her off before she could say anything else.

"Tavbro is right though. Look at the two motherfuckers over there..." He kind of gestured at Karkat and you with a sign of the head. "Looks like they're all up to tell us something very motherfucking important with the sad faces they have. That's some kind of motherfucking news we should hear about all together."

You sigh and report your attention on Karkat as the others keep chatting. He barely spoked during the whole time, remaining lost in his thoughts, kind of staring at the void.

"You're alright?"

"Does it looks like I am?" He softly grumbled back.

You bite your lips. You're not really sure what to say or do. You know that Karkat was close to Eridan, almost like pale buddies, and you can tell from this that his pain his as deep as yours. You did your best to keep your composure all along, but he seems to struggle harder for his part.

"I still can't believe he's gone..." He whispers, voice cracking halfway.

"Me neither..." You reply with a voice just as low. "And I feel guilty. If I was still his moiral maybe..."

"Hey, it isn't your fault." He looked up at you.

"What's not her fault?" Terezi suddenly asked.

"Darlings, you're both getting teary eyed. Is what you wanted to share us that bad?" Remarked Kanaya.

Next to the jade troll was Equius and Nepeta. They just arrived, as well as Sollux, who seemed to stare blankly at his feet as he walked in.

"Well... Since everyone is here now, I guess it is time to give some explanations." You said with a faint smile, standing up.

"It is about Eridan." Continued Karkat.
