"My game is old an' favours random characters." He countered, smirking. He kept playing as Kirby, waiting for Dave to change character before starting the next round.

●

He knew Eridan had the advantage if he was playing kirby still, as lil mac's attacks were all very horizontal and perfect for him to be eaten alive, as Dave liked to call it, by the little ball of pink, but he still had hope.

On the first round, Eridan won, and now they were struggling to see who would be the winner of the second round

2015-08-02 09:26:09

🌀

Eridan had a habit of having this really angry look on s face when he was concentrating. It looked sort of like a frustrated scowl, but it was really just him concentrating hard. Dave won the second round though and now he was trying even harder, making sure he didn't press the wrong button at the wrong time and hoping that another glitch would happen. Immediately after that thought he mentally chastised himself for that, preferring to play fair and just take the opportunities given to him when they came.

He won the last round, by a mere button press.

2015-08-02 09:29:31

●

Just as Eridan won, the doorbell rang, and he put the remote down. "Oh wouldn't you look at that, food's here. Got me too distracted to win, you're lucky." He teased, flicking his forehead on the way to the door, smiling to himself, and got the wallet to pay for the stuff.

A minute or so later, he was coming back with a stack of boxes.

2015-08-02 09:32:25

🌀

He looked smug as he won, even as Dave flicked his forehead. He reached out for the food once he came back, insistently wiggling his fingers in a 'gimme' motion. "I wasn't distracting you. You distracted yourself. You can only blame yourself." He grinned and nudged him with his foot.

2015-08-02 09:36:01

●

"I said the doorbell distracted me, get it right." He grins, sitting back down. It wasn't even a good excuse, he ad won as he doorbel rang, but it wasn't meant to justify what happened, just to tease him.

He looks through he boxes, reading what was on each, and handing Eridan his, opening his own right after.

2015-08-02 09:38:29

🌀

He just snickered and nudged him again, shifting around and obnoxiously putting his feet in Dave's lap. He opened up both of his boxes, picking up one of the skewers to start with and taking a bite of the chicken. "What'd you get?" He asked once he'd swallowed, glancing at his food.

2015-08-02 09:40:59

●

Dave nudged him a little with his own feet, shaking his head as he smirked. "Pork chop suey and orange chicken." He said as he shoved some of the chop suey in his mouth with a delighted little sound. After three days on half assed meals, this was glorious. He offered him some, just offering him the box as he chewed.

2015-08-02 09:44:55

🌀

Eridan leaned forward a bit to look at it as it was offered, shrugging and taking a bit. "It's alright I guess. Not really a fan of pork." Sat back and finished off the skewer, starting on the fried rice now and leaving the second skewer for later. "Do you want some of this?"

2015-08-02 09:48:16

●

Dave shrugged in return, as he took off his shades, since the room was dark. "Nah, I'm already having a kind of pasta, but thanks." He says, pointing at the chop suey with his chopsticks.

2015-08-02 09:50:56

🌀

He nodded, settling back to eat. It was a comfortable quiet as they ate, the background noise coming mainly from the tv. He'd finished off the fried rice by the time he spoke again, covering his mouth with his hand as he finished chewing. "How'd it go meeting up with your friends?"

2015-08-02 09:53:04

●

"Surprisingly well. We ended up going to the arcade, and Jade is thinking about getting a pet snake, like Rose." He shrugs, looking up at him. Dave went for the Orange chicken afterwards, playing with the chopsticks.

2015-08-02 14:37:30

🌀

He pulled a face at the mention of a snake. "I never understand the attraction of owning a snake. Like, they curl up and occasionally move an' need to be fed rats an' mice an' whatnot. Gross." He put half the skewer down as he spoke.

His face brightened a bit as that reminded him of something. "Oh! You haven't seen the baby seahorses yet. C'mon."

2015-08-02 21:00:13

●

"Fuck if I know. But then again, you have pets that you can't even touch, that just glub around. They're not gross, but still." He teased, laughing to himself.

"Oh right, you told me you'd show me. You still know who is the one you wanted to keep?" He asks as he puts his stuff down, getting up.

2015-08-02 21:34:03

🌀

"Pets that i can touch require cleaning up their shit an' their fur or whatever the fuck they shed." He stuck his tongue and nudged.

He stood up, leaving his food on the coffee table and leading Dave to his bedroom. Once he was in thr room a little seahorses instantly bumped into the glass, bubbling at him 'hello hello hello' over and over. "This is the one I want to keep."

2015-08-02 22:24:48

●

He smiles as the seahorses shove themselves against the glass, his hands going to his pocket once more. Stepping closer, he looks at the one he pointed at, and nods. "He's pretty." Of course he couldn't hear the hellos, but he still thought the were pretty adorable. He tapped his nail gently against the bottom of the glass, some seahorses coming together to see what it was.

2015-08-02 22:33:40

🌀

His fins were wiggling a bit as he pressed his finger against the glass. The little seahorse bumped against it repeatedly, still keeping up with his hellos. "I don't think he knows much else aside from hello, but he's sweet." He smiled at Dave, fins twitching a bit as he listened to hthe seahorse. The timer went off for feeding, just as the Grouchy fish started up about food. He sighed and reached for the food.

2015-08-03 01:25:12

●

He laughed a little, a slightly excited looking smile forming on his face as he kept trying to go through. "He'll learn eventually. He's still more pleasant to talk to than some people."

He jumps a little as the timer goes off, but when he sees Eridan reach for the food, he remembers what's up. "I can help, it'll be quicker." He offered, reaching for the ones with the little spoons, or at least the ones he remembered had spoons in them.

2015-08-03 01:28:51

🌀

He handed him the few spoon ones he missed, grabbing the rest and putting the required amount in one by one.

"Thanks. He is much more pleasant though. Definitely more pleasant then this one." He gestured to the Grouch, stinking his tongue out childishly.

He headed back to the living room, moving to sit down and finish off his chicken skewer. "Wanna play another game after this? Or keep playing smash?"

2015-08-03 01:35:00

●

He thanked him for the rest of the small containers, being careful not to add anything twice, and putting everything away right after to watch the seahorses gather where the food was. Just the sight of it made him smile a little wider. "Fussy fins remains the same I see. That's my problematic fave."

Once he too was back in the living room, he ate another mouthful of chop suey, leaning back against the couch. Damn, why wasn't his couch this comfortable? It felt like he was going to sink into it. "Sure, another game sounds fine. Do you have anything in mind?"

2015-08-03 01:42:01

🌀

"He's an asshole. But believe it or not he's seemed to tone down his grouchiness just a touch."

Eridan had spent nearly an hour looking for the comfiest couch. Mostly because he used it for naps and sitting on so it has to be comfy. "I don't mind. Choose whichever game." It wasn't that late into the night, so he figured he'd wait a bit before breaking into the alcohol. "Tekken?"

2015-08-03 07:05:05

●

"Sounds fine, which one though?" He was already kneeling by the pile of games to look for it. It took him a while, since it was a big ass pile, but he managed.

He then put the CD in the console, and plopped down on the couch.

2015-08-03 14:00:34

🌀

Eridan had already stacked his food boxes on the table, neat and out of the way as he waited for Dave to put the game in. He started the game once Dave was sitting going through all the loading bullshit with tapping fingers against his controller before they got ot the screen where they can choose their player.

2015-08-03 20:50:40

●

"I call dibs on Jin." He warned, and put his own boxes away after eating another piece of orange chicken. And he indeed picked Jin, smirking to himself. He waited for Eridan to pick a character too before starting the game

2015-08-03 20:53:45

🌀

Eridan just grinned and chose Zafina. "Do you want to go through a few levels after beating each other up?" He usually chose Jin, but Zafina was his next best character. He was better with the absolute button smash combos with Zafina anyway.
