Eridan cries softly to himself in an alley just outside of the school zone. That goddamn, no-good, honey-breathed son of a bitch took Feferi from him. Snagged her away, just like that. He was the one who was always there for Feferi, and she just blew him off for an asshole with a lisp.


"Hey, fishbrains." Oh god, speak of the devil...

"Go away, Sol. We have no business."

"But we do, ED. I have to defend my woman's honor."

"I don't even understand why she likes you," Eridan bursts out, and it's hard to tell whether he's shaking with rage or sobs, "you're such a fuckin' douche!"

"Ladies love the Captor, ED. It's in my fucking genes. Captor over Ampora, hands-down, any goddamn day."

Eridan stands up and wipes tears from his eyes, "One day you'll see that you're a nobody, Sol, and everybody just pities you. You aren't any form of attractive and soon, Fef will come to her senses and she'll come running back to my house with her mascara running down her face!"

"You cocksucking son of a squid!"

"Eagle-fuckin' poor excuse of a man!"

"Shit-stained port-a-potty swimmer!"

"Lanky-ass mouth breathe-?!" Eridan's latest insult is interrupted by a pair of lips. Sollux and he had gotten so close in the process of screaming profanities that he didn't realize that he'd been kissed until it was happening and Sollux was pushing him towards the wall of the alley and Eridan wasn't fighting with his words any more, but with his tongue. So began the most mischievous  affair to ever take place in their small town.
