        The sea-dweller trudged to a restaurant, he had no time to cook and needed a simple and quick meal, and a fast food restaurant was the best thing he could think of, sure the food was grimy and bad for your health, but he still needed something in his empty stomach. When he was approaching the joint, a flyer was caught in the wind and hit his face, if that wasn't bad enough, the flyer continued to hit his face, aggravating the troll greatly. 

        "damn stupid flyer!"His annoyance poured into his tone. Despite his cursing, the flyer wouldn't detach from his face. So Eridan ripped the flyer off his face and began to skim through the words.

        The description listed that they were having an annual cruise and anyone was invited to join, however, the prices were high..The troll scoffed, but started to consider this trip, something was telling him deep down inside to go. His hands trembled and he pocketed the flyer. 

        While Eridan crumpled up the paper and shoved it in his pocket, he realized that he had completely forgotten about his lunch, he scrambled to get the flyer out of his pocket, it read that at 3:00 P.M. the Cruise would begin. Eridan knew it was somewhere around 2:30 P.M. simply because he had just checked his phone before leaving his hive. 

        Eridan also realized that he didn't have time to waste, he sprinted into the fast food restaurant and ordered a meal to go, after impatiently waiting for his meal, he ran towards the direction of the Cruise center. His heart raced as he pushed past people in an attempt to make it on time for once in his life.

        Luckily, they had just began registering people into the husktops at the information desk. Eridan strode over to the desk and payed for a ticket. There was a few minutes until the Cruise would begin to load trolls onto the ship, so the sea-dweller walked over to the gift shop. 

        In the store, there were so many stuffed beasts and souvenirs. Eridan had walked over to the stuffed beasts which were right next to the cups and watches that were on sale. There was a whide selection of these undersea creatures, the troll picked up a sea horse, and stared at the doll for awhile before purchasing the item, while he was walking out of the store, he heard a familiar voice. 

        "iit wa2 a 2pur of the moment, be2iide2, don't you liike 2pontaneou2 troll2?" There was a male troll on the phone, Eridan's face flooded with pure purple, and his stomach felt terrible, he was going to throw up all over the floor and cause a commotion if he didn't get to a trash can soon. To his surprise the voice was closer than he thought. 

        "ugh, dii2gu2tiing, are you goiing to throw up? Do you need a tra2h can? ju2t go look iin the miiror." The troll chuckled, his cruel words didn't affect Eridan but he became angry at the words being thrown at him. Eridan opened his mouth to try and say a sarcastic comment. 

        Instead of words, vomit came up from his mouth. 

        "aw 2hiit, the2e are my new 2hoe2, you a22hole!" the troll that harrassed Eridan began cursing at him. Eridan had never felt this embarrassed. When he looked up at the troll, he noticed that the other's expression softened. Although the facial features didn't change, the sea-dweller could see the troll's eyes change to a softer kind of emotion. Then before he knew it, he was in the bathroom with a hand offering a tissue. 

A/N: I've decided to change the point of view, this just feels better this way. Sorry to all of you whom liked the 2nd person point of view.
