TRIGGER WARNING: SELF HARM IN CHAPTER
"Stop!" Eridan screeched as Vriska kicked him in the ribs.
"Why?"
"Please...?"
"Ugh fine! Only because you're so stupidly pathetic it's not fun anymore." She turned and stalked off.
Eridan wiped some blood from his face before stumbling home. He unlocked the door shakily. Fortunately for him, Sollux was distracted which allowed for him to retreat to the bathroom.
Wiping more blood off his face he let out a strangled sob, watching as red dripped into the sink. He opened a drawer and pulled out a rusty razor.
Only it wasn't rust.
He pulled the blade out and pushed his sleeves back, exposing his marred wrist. He dug the razor into his skin, gritting his teeth.
He didn't notice Sollux push the door open. He didn't notice the little pet run out the house and down the street. He didn't notice until he realized Karkat was grilling his wrists.
"Kar wwhat the fuck?!" Eridan pulled away quickly, wiping off tears.
"You promised."
He looked away.
"You scared the shit out of your pet. Come on. Let's eat you cleaned up."
Eridan obeyed tiredly as Karkat washed and bandaged his wrists.
"Where's Sol?" Eridan asked afterwards.
"At my house."
"Wwith Gam?"
The two exchanged a panicked look before sprinting down the street.
