"Piss off four eyes I don't gotta be creative just for you." He grinned and flicked his ankle. "Why should I be creative anyway. Maybe I'll just stick with common redundant boring insults towards you from now on?"

●

"Well that isn't very charming of you." He teases, laughing softly as his ankle is flicked. "You're much better than that, c'mon, give me something better. I refuse to be a soggy blanket."

2015-08-01 03:28:28

🌀

"You overused expression of ironicism." He flicked his ankle again. "You deceptively mimical asshole. Plebiatic excuse of a bruised rejected fruit." He flicked his shin this time, smiling. "You utter Strider."

2015-08-01 03:37:34

●

Dave laughs, taking it all in a stride of course. "Hell yeah I'm an utter Strider, I need a stamp of authenticity." He grins. "Much better. See? You're charming again. That wasn't so bad, now was it?"

2015-08-01 03:39:30

🌀

"Bastard. I've always been charming." He smiling, rolling his eyes and reaching to put the autopilot on, adjusting the course minutely before settling back. "You just wanted me to share some if my plethora of insults so you don't have to think up your own."

2015-08-01 03:51:10

●

"Oh no, you caught me, I'm just too fucking lazy to think of insults of my own. And I would have gotten away with it, too, if it weren't for you, ya meddling seadweller." He grins, nudging him a bit with a foot.

2015-08-01 03:53:06

🌀

Eridan just looked at him, raising an eyebrow. "You make the most absurd references at the strangest times Dave." He shook his head, snickering a bit. "You need your own insult generator, an' no that's not me."

2015-08-01 03:58:01

●

"Well I'm sorry for knowing about things." He says in the most sarcastic tone he could muster, smiling. "I need no insult generator. I just need a couple of fancy sounding synonyms to simple words. That's the trick."

2015-08-01 03:59:15

🌀

"Exactly. An insult generator." He laughed, shaking his head slightly. He checked the instruments at the beep, noting it was just showing a dip in wind. He stood up to wind the jibe winch a bit, pulling it in a bit so it wouldn't start flapping around or making noise.

2015-08-01 04:07:48

●

"Oh shut it, I'm creative enough to get my own."

He snickers, pulling back his legs once he had to get up, but crossing them on his lap again once Eridan sat down once more. "What was the beep?"

2015-08-01 04:09:17

🌀

"You're musically creative, not wordly creative." He glanced at him, then at the instruments before back at him. "It's just notifying me of a wind change. Nothing major an' i could've figured that myself but it's nice to know this picks up on it as well."

"Rule one of sailing Dave, never trust the instruments more then yourself. All this hightech stuffs great, but if you don't know how to tell the difference yourself then you're screwed when it breaks."

2015-08-01 04:20:37

●

He hums in acknowledgement, nodding. "You don't need to be a genius to be able to tell when the wind changes, I suppose. But I think the other's stuff more important." He said as he nodded over to the panels with his chin.

2015-08-01 04:22:29

🌀

"They are more important. That device is the weather one, so it tells everything weather wise." He settled down again, content with how everything is working. "It's good just to know how everything works, how it'll help an' all that."

2015-08-01 04:37:19

●

He nods, smiling a bit. "That's true." He briefly thought of how useful that would have been for the milions of ancient sailors that crashed due to weather complications. How the fuck could the machines even tell what was going on? Who knows, certainly not Dave.

"Have you ever had to sail back without any of those?"

2015-08-01 04:39:40

🌀

"I wasn't the one sailing at the time. It was when I was with that blueblood. He had a sensor at the bottom of his keel that detected water currents an' shit an' it got knocked by something. I dunno what. The blueblood didn't even do anything about it, just shrugged an' kept on sailing. He watched the water to identify the change in currents."

2015-08-01 04:43:32

●

A half smile forms on his face, and he laughs. "I don't even know the guy personally and he already sounds like the definition of badass, damn. That's fucking cool, having enough confidence in yourself to do that."

2015-08-01 04:45:24

🌀

"It's just the way of trolls. We get more badass an' more grouchy as we get older." He grinned, fins wiggling happily. "At some point, at some age rather you just stop giving a shit about things that fuck with your day."

2015-08-01 04:59:20

●

That only amuses him further, making him keep laughing. "That is the best thing that could ever happen to anyone. I wish I get like that when I'm old and wrinkly and beat people with a cane like every dignified old man to ever exist." He muses. "You'll probably be one of the most grouchy ones."

2015-08-01 05:00:56

🌀

"You'll age like wine Dave. Old an' dignified an' whacking people across their shins an' hollering about that time that one seadweller saved a shark an' when he was a young man he jumped off a waterfall because why not."

He laughed, nodding. "Definitely. I'll be the grouchiest."

2015-08-01 05:02:53

●

For some reason that felt like a great compliment to give to someone. He actually felt a bit flattered. "That's the only life for me, while I eat rice pudding and yell at Sharon to bring me more raisins, and then yell at Sharon again because what the fuck I don't even like raisins, and then eat them anyway." He grins. "Bro, old you is a masterpiece."

2015-08-01 05:04:49

🌀

"Why yell at Sharon? Why can't you be the polite old person an' I get to be the one who shouts at people. I want to be the grouch. I am the grouchiest." He grinned nudging him gently. "Old me will be the very best."

2015-08-01 05:08:17

●

"I'm not stealing your job, you'll be the grouchiest old man around, and I'll be the insane one everybody loves but secretly fears will shit on their beds." He laughs a little. "But yeah, old you? A+, sign me the fuck up. The things I'd do to have a grouchy old man in my life. That's fucking gold."

2015-08-01 05:10:09

🌀

"We'd be a horror together. One shits on everyone's bed the other's shouting fancy insults an' swears. Brilliant." He snickered, rolling his eyes at him. "You're ridicules."

2015-08-01 05:21:05

●

"And the best part is, I will be the one that has started the rumor that I shit on people's beds, just to inspire horror in their hearts. That is, until old man Stanley defies me, and I'll have to start actually doing it. Gotta keep the fucking rep." He grins. "Fucking Christ we'd be amazing."

2015-08-01 05:22:54

🌀

Eridan laughed louder at that, his head dropping back after he'd calmed his laughter and just grinned. "The best around. No one would try nothing against us. You might even win at bingo. None'a the old fogies'll want to stand in the way of the Strider's win at bingo. They fear for their sheets."
