Most likely, he'll lose the first match, come on strong in the second, and probably just kick ass throughout however many they deem to do. Hopefully. He wants to win, but it's also effort-full.
The match starts and he focuses on the screen, dodging more than attacking really.

Dave was ready to kick ass. Years of gaming with his friends prepared him for this.
He comes on strong on the first match, his fingers just dancing across the buttons. He wins with still more than hald of his life intact.

Eridan mock scowls at him, tilting his head to gently knock a horn against his cheek. "Rude." He mutters, but he's grinning by the time the next round starts. This time, he's slinging out combo's and single hits in rapid and random patterns, shifting to sit more upright.
By the end of it, he's just beaten Dave with barely a third of his health left. He grins smugly

He snickers, bumping his shoulder against his. "Dont be a sore loser." He teases, but doesn't take his eyes off the screen.
He pouts slightly when he loses this time around. Alright. He can deal. New round
2016-02-13 11:13:17 -
🌀
"I'm not the one who's going to be a sore loser."
The next round starts, and he comes in strong. Eridan's leaning forward slightly, focused on the screen as he positively kicks Dave's ass. He's never played with another person before, so he doesn't really know how long his good luck streak will last here, but for now he's won the round again.

Dave wins the round that follows, and they settle into this competitive pace where no one's ahead for that long. It's driving Dave mad.
2016-02-13 23:19:46 -
🌀
It's annoying Eridan as well, but at the same time it's amusing, because he can hear little mutterings coming from Dave whenever he wins a round and Dave is behind, or Dave wins a round and Eridan's behind. Eventually though, he wins two in a row, glancing at Dave briefly with a triumphant grin.
2016-02-13 23:34:02 -

He nudges him with his shoulder, his face being devoted of any emotion, just like when he plays poker. He wins the round that follows, but he isn't sure if he can keep up
2016-02-14 09:59:16 -
🌀
Eridan's fins are wiggling every so often, and he shifts a little until he's back to leaning comfortably against Dave while he plays. He's not leaning against him in any way that it would hinder Dave, because he's not a cheater. He wins the round next, and his fins wiggle happily.
2016-02-14 10:00:42 -

He grumbles a little under his breath, eyebrows furrowing a bit. This is like what, their 20th match? With a soft sigh, he plays another round, only to put his controller down once he loses that one too. "Yknow. It's getting late, I should go." He excuses his sore loser self, going to give his cheek a big kiss.
2016-02-14 10:09:32 -
🌀
He's grinning like a fool, feeling oddly smug. He doesn't protest when Dave says to stop however, since he was getting a bit sick of playing himself. "Yeah okay. Thanks for coming with me this week." He put the controller aside, leaning closer to Dave to kiss him. "I had fun, and I hope you did to?"
2016-02-14 10:11:09 -
●
He smiles a little when the topic us changed, and gives him a proper kiss. "I loved it. It was the shit. I'll meet you tomorrow after classes?"
2016-02-14 10:13:42 -
🌀
He grimaced at the reminder of classes, sighing. "I'll have to see how much I need to catch up on, because I'm sure I've missed something by now, but I'll let you know. I'll swing by for coffee regardless though, if you're working?"
2016-02-14 10:15:13 -
●
He nods, and reaches to run his fingers through Eridan's naturally curly hair. "Yeah, I'm working. Breakfast is on me, no need for cash." And with that (and another kiss), he grabbed his stuff and left.
2016-02-14 23:18:30 -
🌀
Eridan locked the door behind him, running a hand through his hair and frowning at the knots. That definitely needed a wash. He headed for the shower, grabbing a change of clothes as he went. While he had gotten used to it being curly and all over the place, he didn't really want to be seen in public with it. So that meant a long shower and lots of shampoo.

Through out that week, Dave had time to move into his own shitty apartment. He had bought the stuff with his savings, since he didn't want Bro's help, but it was pretty nice still. No swords. No smuppets. Apple juice whenever he wants. Life is great. However, he is now busy taking care of all the work he had to do to compensate for the time he was gone. He was currently on his way home from a night shift at the coffee shop, and yawned as he slung his bag over his right shoulder
2016-02-14 23:43:35 -
🌀
Eridan had offered to help Dave move in, and had been taken up on that offer exactly once. He didn't complain though, he knew Dave probably wanted to do it all himself. He just made sure to buy him a comfortable couch and nice curtains. He still didn't know what to get him for a third thing, but he decided he'll save it.
But with Dave moving in, and his classes only taking a few hours, he was utterly bored.
So bored, that the letter that came for him signed with a symbol he didn't expect to see again in a long while, sounded very appealing. He hadn't gone to a street fight in a while, and this highblood probably wanted a rematch after he solidly kicked their ass.
So he took it, and ended up waiting for the other highblood to make the first move in an open space down an alleyway. Classy.

He had left his car a couple of blocks away, since there was literally no way of parking in a good spot tonight it seems. As he's about to put one earbud in, he notices some commotion in an alley. Huh. Whatever was happening there was probably trouble. He should go check it.
2016-02-15 00:17:02 -
🌀
It was a pretty even fight, considering that Eridan hadn't fought since he started dating Dave, and this other guy had obviously been training. It wasn't until that bloody purple's claws ripped clean through the webbing on his left fin did Eridan really start throwing himself into beating him.
It didn't take long until the purple conceded, and by then they were both covered in blood. He had a towel with him to wipe the worst off, and had one of his old hoodies to hide any injuries when he walked home, but this was ridicules. He had gashes across his chest, his fin was bleeding heavily and made his head spin, one horn had a scrape near the top, and his knuckles were bruised.
The purple wasn't much better, and what was obviously his moirail hurried up to take him away, casting fearful glances over her shoulder at him.

Dave moves into the alley to watch what's going on, but the trolls there are tall as fuck, all some sort of highbloods. He groans as he pushes his way through the crowd, only to see the purple blood walking away. Weird, was there a fight?
A glance to his left though had him stumble upon an eyeful of injured Eridan, and he instantly pushed through the rest of the trolls, now not so gently. His expression clearly twisting into a very angry one. "Eridan Ampora, what the shit?" He said, raising his tone as he walks towards him.
He takes off his shades and looks over his cuts and injuries, looking very angry when he notices his fin. "What the he'll were you thinking, what the actual fuck!"
2016-02-15 08:56:57 -
🌀
The trolls that had gathered around to watch had all scattered once they saw the fight was over. No one really wants to stick around to watch the two injured trolls drag themselves home, unless that's the only reason they came for.
Therefore, by the time Eridan notices Dave, the rest of the trolls have all left down the alleyways. The sight of a very angry Dave makes his fins flatted against his head (ow ow ow), shoulders hunching in an unconscious effort to seem smaller as he stares at him. "Um... it's not as bad as you think?" He's got a spectacular black eye coming up, and his fin is dripping blood all over his shoulder. It's making it hard to think, and he can feel the urge to rip the troll who'd done it apart. He repressed that feeling though, because now is not a good time for it.
He can't help taking a few steps back when Dave advances on him, despite having just been fighting with a highblood older than him. "W-What are you doin' here?"
2016-02-15 09:19:47 -
●
Dave reaches over to grab his wrist, starting to pull him out of there. He promptly ignores everything he's saying. "You're coming to my fucking place and you're explaining everything to me this second or so help me."
When they get to his car, Dave gets in the driver's seat, angrily grumbling to himself
2016-02-15 09:50:58 -
🌀
Eridan didn't make one move to protest, or pull back. Dave looked mad enough to kill, and he felt more afraid of him than he had in that fight.
He let himself be dragged along, stumbling a little now as the claw marks on his thigh started acting up. Fuck that hurts, why do injuries always have to be included in fights? Damn.
He settled into the passenger seat, half curled up on himself and leaning against the door like it would save him from Dave. "... It's not a big deal Dave. It was just a fight."
2016-02-15 09:54:03 -
●
"Just a fucking fight where you got your damned fin ripped." He said, his tone gradually rising. "Just shut up. I don't want to hear it if its not about how the shit you ended up here." He took a deep breath, gripping the wheel as he started heading home. He was tired and stressed and this wasn't helping.
2016-02-15 09:57:26 -
🌀
"Yeah so? It'll heal. It's not like this is the first fuckin' fight I've been in. What, you think I sit around and twiddle my thumbs all the time and I never ever have a bout of fabled fuckin' highblood anger? Get the fuck off your high horse Dave, lots of trolls fight." He curled up on himself, fins flat against his head defensively and arms crossed over his chest as he looked out of the window.
