"Well that's just rude yo, that's no way to treat a lady." He didn't complain much more though, as he was now being dragged back to shore. It was a little weird, and he wasn't expecting this to work, but hey, less work.

"Good thing you're not one then, hey?" He smirked and kept swimming, dipping under the water a bit to ease the fuzziness of his sight. He didn't say much else, just contently swimming along until they reached the shore. He was already untying himself to yank Dave in before the other could stand, hoping to drop him back into the shallows.

"Well that was a nice little trip." He said as he attempted to stand, but he didn't manage to do it fast enough, and ended up getting his ass dropped into the shallows, a wave washing over him and making him roll over himself a couple of times underwater. He got up as he gasped for breath, getting out before another one came, and punched him lightly in the shoulder as he laughed. "You fucking- you're the worst grape I've ever met." He grins, shaking his head to get water to splash on his face

"I just dragged you back to the shore! How dare you accuse me of being horrible? Just because you didn't stand up in time." He was snickering though, and only laughed harder at Dave's light punch. "Like you wouldn't have done the same." He shoved him back, lightly so as not to drop him on his ass again as he shook his head at him.

●

"Because you are fucking awful bro, don't play." He kept grinning, taking off his goggles, and grabbing his wrists, so that he could swipe his feet and more gently than not let him land on the sand, always grabbing his wrists so that he wouldn't fall too hard, just get his back all sandy. "I would not, I would have done this though."

2015-07-21 00:55:19

🌀

"My point exactly." He squirmed and tugged his hands free of his grip, rolling his eyes at him as he splashed back into the water. He dove under, wriggling a bit to get all the sand off. His hair was pushed back with one hand when he resurfaced, walking back to him and turning to go down the beach. "C'mon. Dinghy's this way."

2015-07-21 00:58:45

●

"Still not calling that to the big D." He smirks, starting to head that way, trying to stick his hands in his pockets but quickly realizing the suit didn't have pockets, so he dropped his hands before Eridan could notice. "What a stupid name, who named the small boats 'dinghy's anyway?"

2015-07-21 01:00:44

🌀

"Dinghy's a bengali word. It literally means small boat." He glances at Dave, raising an eyebrow at him. "It's just something to call it. Like why are you called Dave?" He grinned and kicked at the sand, stretching his arms above his head with a click of his joints and a sigh.

2015-07-21 01:09:45

●

"Okay but consider this: Dave sounds cool, while Dinghy sounds horrible." He took the chance to poke his side again, where he knew he was ticklish, but didn't do more than that, laughing softly

2015-07-21 01:10:59

🌀

Eridan dropped his arms in an instant, jerking away from him with a scowl. He merely stuck up his middle finger and moved to walk in the hallows instead. "Riiight. You name means squat though, where as dinghy means something."

2015-07-21 01:14:38

●

He snorts a little at his reaction, grinning, and turning his head to keep looking at him while they walked. "And that's where you're wrong my friend, Dave means beloved. I think beloved means a little more than small boat."

2015-07-21 01:16:45

🌀

"Yeah well "beloved", you're about to trip on a rock." he pointed out, snickering a bit. "Who would call you beloved? S'a bit of a weird thing to call someone." His fins flicked a bit as a gentle breeze blew over them from the oceans, and he turned his head into it with a soft sigh. "At least it doesn't mean something utterly ridicules."

2015-07-21 01:19:28

●

He looked ahead as he said that, stopping in his tracks, and got around the rock, now looking ahead of him. "That's why you call me Dave and not beloved. It's like Cerberus, the guardian of hell. The name itself sounds fucking badass, but what does it mean? Spot. Who would call the guardian of hell spot? No fucking body, that's why they call him Cerberus." He smirks softly. "Plus you were named after a river, shut up"

2015-07-21 01:21:59

🌀

"I wasn't named after a river. It's just coincidence my name sounds like it. Most grubs take whatever sounds their lusii use to call them by an' turn them into names." He shifted around a clump of rocks in the water, stepping back onto the beach for a moment before stepping back into the shallows. "Names are weird."

2015-07-21 01:25:00

●

"Oh shit. So if your lusus sounds remotely like a dog, your name is from now on "Ruff"? Wait, do sky-horses make sounds that sound like "Eridan"? Is that their pokemon sound?"

2015-07-21 01:27:12

🌀

"No." He sounded exasperated, turning his head to roll his eyes at Dave. "It's... Hard to explain. The lusii make noises, an' then the grub becomes familiar with the noises an' recognises the noises their lusii uses to call them. They take that noise, an' whatever noise they make in response an' turn it into a name. I dunno it's stupid grub logic."

2015-07-21 01:36:30

●

"That is mildly impressive." He doubts he'd ever associate himself with a certain sound if someone didnt teach him to be self aware. And speak of course. "I wont question it more."

2015-07-21 01:38:59

🌀

He shrugged. "Not even trolls really understand it. It's like an instinct kind of thing. My lusus didn't talk to me much. I just kind of used the first thing he said to me an' kept that." He shrugged and kicked at the water, moving back to the sand.

2015-07-21 02:01:22

●

Now he felt like a dick for asking about it. Great job Dave. "Well, turns out it is a nice name. I dig it." He shrugs, moving closer to him again. "Goes well with your attitude. You can take that however you like."

2015-07-21 02:19:24

🌀

"What, sarcastic an' bitter?" He glanced at him, a small smile on his face. "Don't worry about it Dave. It's just a stupid troll thing. Nothing important."

2015-07-21 02:31:52

●

"I was going to say picky and a diva, but whatever." He teases, not quite meaning it, but wanting to see how he'd take that. A slight smile forms on his face either way. "Though you are pretty sarcastic for a grape"

2015-07-21 02:33:08

🌀

"Diva is a bit far fetched don't'cha think?" He rolled his eyes and kicked sand at his feet. "I am the most sarcastics of grapes. The most bitter of wines an' grouchiest grape. Tis me."

2015-07-21 02:37:52

●

"Not at all if you ask me." Dave teased further. "And its pretty funny that a guy like you is ticklish all over."

2015-07-21 02:40:19

🌀

"Not all over." He huffed at him, fins wiggling. "Just around my gills really. Sensitive nerve endings an' all that. You're just a bastard for taking advantage of that." He grinned at him, reaching a bit to shove at his shoulder.

2015-07-21 02:43:44

●

Dave doesn't fail to laugh, grinning at him and shoving him back. "I'm just taking what I know and putting it to use man, can't blame a guy for that." He found himself thinking if it meant that his gills were sort of like his neck area. For Dave at least, he found it to be pretty sensitive to anything, be it tickling or touching in general. On that topic he also wondered how many lovers he had fin-slapped without meaning to because they got too close, and laughed a little.
