"I've thought about making music. Not like what you do, but some of my lineage were pretty good composers an' singers an' shit even alongside their job or whatever they did. But then reading music was more interesting than making music so I just gave up."

"How a about giving my turntables a spin?" He didn't offer this often, but he figures it would be nice to watch. He'd also admittedly enjoy teaching him the basics.

2015-08-10 08:02:25

"I don't know how to work them. You'd let me touch them, let alone dick around on them an' create a possible failure of music?"

2015-08-10 08:21:17

●

"Sure, with me there to help, I don't see a problem." He nodded. "Maybe you make something nice."

2015-08-10 08:40:52

🌀

He raised both eyebrows, but looked faintly excited about the idea nonetheless. "You'd have to walk me through everything."

He grinned a bit, fins wiggling. "I wouldn't count on me making something nice, but I'll surely make something."

2015-08-10 08:43:32

●

It was more than a little endearing, watching him get excited over something like that, but he loved it. "No problem, I'd dig it as much as you would. And nah, you'll make some sick ass beat for sure." He offers him a smile.

2015-08-10 08:45:31

🌀

"With your help i'm sure I'll make something halfway decent." He grinned, sticking his tongue out for a bit. His laptop beeped as he got a reply to his early email, and he scanned it quickly before turning his attention back to Dave. "Your turn."

2015-08-10 08:56:28

●

"Nah-ah, your turn, I asked the last question." He smirked. "There's no escaping this one."

2015-08-10 09:05:21

🌀

"No, you didn't actually. I asked if you'd really let me use your turntables." He grinned at him, but relented. "But fine. I am gonna be a real priss here, so you better be absolutely good an' suck up a heap here." He grinned, expression showing he was clearly teasing, but his voice was curious when he asked, "but what exactly do you like about me?"

2015-08-10 09:06:58

●

Dave laughs a little, but nods. "Alright, you have my word."

He wasn't quite expecting the question though.

"Well I like you. The part of the package I've gotten to know so far." He doesn't know how to put it without sounding sappy. "I like how you act around me, I dig seeing you relax when we talk and stuff, how easy going you are with me." He is now looking a bit away from the camera, as this level of sap is too much for even him. "And I like being with you and seeing you smile and stuff."

2015-08-10 09:48:22

🌀

His own cheeks felt like heating up as he listened to what he said, and he fiddled with the edge of his scarf. "An' stuff? That's precise." He teased, even as he smiled slightly. "It's a bit weird you know. For me. Being able to relax around you like I do. I'm not really used to it, an' I swear these past few days I feel like I'd pulled something in my face from how much laughing or smiling I do around you." He smiled a bit now, glancing at him. "But. I like it. You're weird an' I like you." He tucked the lower half of his face into the scarf, fins wiggling a bit as he glanced away from his screen.

2015-08-10 09:52:18

●

"Well you didn't ask for precise. Maybe you should have been a bit more precise about that, so that we wouldn't find ourselves in this precise situation." He laughs a little, trying to ignore what he himself just said, but he peeked back at the screen when Eridan started speaking again, a soft smile forming on his lips, it only widening when he hid his face in the scarf. "I'm glad the feeling is mutual. You're pretty neat."

2015-08-10 09:58:14

🌀

"Give me a precise answer then." His words were muffled by the scarf and the corners of his lips were just visible over the top in a grin. He was joking though, not really sure if he wanted a precise answer in case it made him combust from either embarrassment or something else. "Okay okay next question before I do something stupid."

2015-08-10 10:00:54

●

Dave pondered a little when he was asked to elaborate, but he supposed it was all easier to say over the phone. Why not.

"Well I like the little dimples on your cheeks when you smile a little too wide, and I like seeing your eyes smile, and..." Oh shit this was a bad choice. He wants out. This is enough sap.

Dave looks down to cover his slightly reddening cheeks. "And I like how excited you get sometimes, like when I offered to let you fuck with my turntables, andhow happy you were with the seahorses, and... yeah. That about covers it." More like 'shut the fuck up Dave'.

"Yeah, good idea, next question, um, how sappy was that?" He asks with a small smile, glancing up again

2015-08-10 10:06:01

🌀

Eridan went purple. Well, spontaneously violet but purple will cover it enough. He practically shoved his face into his scarf, hiding even as his fins wiggled wildly. He made a small noise as he continued, pressing his hands to the tips of his fins in an attempt to stop them from wiggling even as he squirmed a bit in his seat. He was quite obviously flustered, and when he finally looked back up he was still violet along his cheeks and all across his fins.

"Really, really sappy."

2015-08-10 10:08:56

●

He would avoid his eyes if he wasn't so busy looking at his reaction. It relived him a little that he wasn't made fun of, but he better not jinx it. "Sappy enough to make you entirely purple." He smiles slightly, nipping at the inside of his cheek a little.

"Well your turn."

2015-08-10 10:12:01

🌀

"Shut /up/ god." He whined, rubbing at his cheeks in an attempt to make the blush go away. "You're an asshole."

"Do you want me to return the favour or do you prefer staying in the dark of how much one might appreciate your presence?" He shot back, teasing a bit. He hoped Dave wouldn't take him up on it, mainly before it'd make him go back to being purple again and probably make them both either flustered or embarrassed.

2015-08-10 10:14:06

●

His shoulders relaxed as he laughed, his own blush quickly going away. "Well you weren't telling me to shut up a moment ago."

Well Dave wasn't just gonna say no to seeing his boyfriend volunteerely get flustered, now would he? What kind of asshole would he be otherwise?

"It's always nice to return the favour, you know, just a matter of politeness." He teased right back, getting himself ready. "And do be specific as well."

2015-08-10 10:19:07

🌀

Eridan stuck his tongue out at him, huffing and adjusting his scarf. He stared resolutely above the camera, hoping it wouldn't make him blush as much. "I like the little smile you do when you think no ones watching. Your lips curve up, only on one side an' you look really pleased an' it's gone in seconds. I like that you calm me without meaning to, an' that you make me laugh. I love your eyes, even if you seem to prefer hiding them from everyone. I like that you seem to figure out shit pretty quickly on your own, an' that you don't put up with whatever shit I've given you so far. I loved the face you made when I brought those seahorses out to you, an' when those fish were swimming around you an' in your hair."

2015-08-10 10:24:29

Well. This was certainly one of the best worst decisions of his life.

His cheeks don't take long to get red again, making him look down and hide what he manages with his hand. He loves it. He likes how he noticed some of the small details, it makes him feel like he's really into him. Except, he is wrong on something, he does try to deliberately calm him down. He learns quick, and as soon as he learned that changing topics was enough to get his mind off a subject, he applied it. Still, he likes hearing that. He snorts a little with laughter when he says Dave doesn't take any shit, and shakes his head a little. Christ, even his ears are cherry red.

"Are you done corting me or is it going to go on?" He teased, glancing up. "Because I'm digging it, you can keep going."

2015-08-10 10:32:38

🌀

"Nope. I'm done. I have had enough flusterment to last me a few lifetimes thank you very much." He was violet again all across his cheeks and his fins were nearly glowing with it. He smiled at him though, head tilted slightly. "If you're good I might tell you more on a later date." He grinned, biting his lip as he saw how completely red Dave had gone. He liked it, a lot. "Plus I think if I keep going you might burst an' I'm sorry but I'd rather not have that. I prefer you in one piece Mr Strider."

"He's making a list, and checking it twice, he doesn't have a beard but he knows if you've been bad, Eridan Clause." he muttered to himself, just sharing his head disapprovingky with a wide smile and hoping he didn't hear.

"Well I am a tomato after all. No surprise here, but alright. Yeah, we'll continue the two man party another day."

"But um... when did you realize? That, you know, you were into me." He mutters, not having had quite enough.

2015-08-10 10:39:08

🌀

"That didn't even rhyme." He stuck his tongue out, shaking his head at him.

"Yeah but I like you as an un-exploded tomato, not tomato sauce Dave. That'd be lame."

He thought for a bit, brow furrowed slightly as he chewed at his lip and thought. "I think it was an actual 'oh shit I might actually like this guy more than I'm supposed to' moment when you first fell asleep on me. I... tend to get emotionally attached to people who are nice to me on more than several occasions, an' you kept being nice, an' then I was just sitting there an' you were asleep on me an' I was sorta like, 'oh shit'."

"Alright I'm not saying that's cute as shit, but, I'm highly implying it. So highly that stoners compete with each other to get th a level of high. "

2015-08-10 10:45:06

🌀

"Dave. Shut up." His fins wiggled and he huffed at him, rubbing a hand over his face again.
