What ended up happening was that Dave got up to go eat again, and tucked Eridan in while he was at it. After that, he just spent some time playing video games, and then went to work, leaving Eridan a sticky note by the bedside table.

Eridan's wake up call was not, like he hoped, nice. For one, Dave wasn't there. For two, there was an annoying psionic throwing bits of paper at him to get him to wake up. When paper hadn't work, it ended up being pens.

Eridan scowled at him, bundling the blankets tighter around himself and turning his back on Sollux, grumbling a "He's not fuckin' here. He's probably at work, go away." Before trying to get back to sleep. But without Dave there, he didn't manage it. Thankfully Sollux fucked off though.

Dave was having a pretty chill time at work, since trolls were the ones that mostly visited at night, lowbloods too, so there wasn't a lot of commotion. That wasn't precisely a nice place for a highblood either way, and the only time he had seen anyone above teal blood there was when Eridan came. He was just serving people, going around and making small talk to pass the time.

🌀

Eridan ended up hauling his ass up to go find one of Dave's hoodies he could wear, and as he did he saw the sticky note.

But Sollux, it took him practically no time at all to find where Dave was and then plonk his ass down in a chair in the corner of his work and wait for him to be noticed. And by that he meant he was trailing little psionics sparks over Dave's hands and arms like an ass.

The sticky note pretty much said he had ordered dinner for him if he wanted, which was sushi, and that he was at work, only to be back at around 3am.

Dave noticed him right away, since the double pair of horns was pretty... attention calling, but he ignored him as best as he could. After around fifteen minutes though, he felt like he had ignored him for long enough, and approached him with his pen and notebook in hand. "Hello, Mr.Asshole McGeek, what can I get you?"

2016-04-11 12:34:31

🌀

Dinner was on the counter already, so he figured the delivery guy must have come while Dave was still there. Eridan plonked himself down in the chair and pulled the package towards him so he could eat.

Sollux pretended he was contemplating something else before looking at him. "Y'know, I would have thought that thomeone with your apparent logical thinking wouldn't keep a fish in a bed. Wouldn't want thoaked sheetth now would you?"

He glanced up at the special's board and rolled his eyes. He simply asked for a black coffee, so that there wasn't really a reason he could be kicked out.

2016-04-11 12:37:08

●

Dave scribbled down the words "black coffee" and doodled a little angry face beside it. "Soaked sheets should be your specialty, or aren't you the 'piss blood' here?" He said calmly. "Should be ready in a while." And with that he left right away, starting to make his coffee, though very, very slowly.

2016-04-11 12:39:16

🌀

A rustblood who'd been sitting near them overheard and snorted into his drink. Sollux scowled at him and kicked his feet up on the opposite chair. "At least mine won't have a filthy thtain on them. Might want to dithcard thothe sheetth. You won't even get that crap out."

2016-04-11 12:40:48

●

A satisfied little smile danced on his lips as he prepared the coffee, pretty happy with the fact that he was the king of comebacks. "I wouldn't keep any sheets you had touched, don't flatter yourself." He calls out, his troll coworker trying to figure out if this was a sort of black thing.

2016-04-11 12:43:04

🌀

"If it thtood the chanthe of being touched by him then you wouldn't be keeping anything of mine." He shot back, inspecting his claws and picking at a bit of dirt under the nail. He didn't even blink as he saw the suspicious look on the troll's face, simply sending psionics skittering over Dave's skin again.

2016-04-11 12:45:40

●

"Possessive, just like I like them. Seems like the kitty has claws." He didn't really say anything to his coworker, letting him take his own conclusions.

2016-04-11 12:47:31

🌀

Sollux rolled his eyes, not even bothering to say anything to that because wow, lame.

His coworker looked amused, "really Dave? Two trolls? Does the human range of romantic partners disgust you that much you gotta dip into my kind?"

2016-04-11 12:48:46

●

He shrugs. "I'm only with this one because of a deal." Even though he did seem to give off pretty genuine black vibes. "And I don't see nothing wrong with a little alien bump and grind."

2016-04-11 12:50:21

🌀

Sollux scowled a little more at the mention of the deal. "Why do you even let him in your place? You're going to get dethperate all over your thtuff."

His coworker shook his head, amused. "Only you, Strider, only you."

2016-04-11 12:52:06

●

"Better than getting piss all over them." He smiles a little at his coworker, before he finally turns to finish his coffee and go give it to Sollux. "And don't butt into my conversations, that is rude. Wow." He told Sollux once he brought him the coffee.

2016-04-11 12:53:26

🌀

"I'd say I'm the epitome of rude, but that spot's been taken already." He glanced at the coffee in front of him, before reaching to grab two sugars and dumping them in.

2016-04-11 22:44:04

●

"Someone's really salty about being number two. I thought you liked it though, he number 2." He looked around to see if he had anyone costumers to attend.

2016-04-12 05:58:12

🌀

There was one other customer, but his coworker handled it, leaving Dave to talk.

"By all technicalitieth, I'm only number two if you had another pitch mate. And that'd be thcandulouth even for humanth." He downed half his coffee in one gulp, not caring that it could burn his tongue. "And thecondly, you're technically the number two in thith thituation. I've had a pitchmate before, and you got my leftoverth."

2016-04-12 06:34:44

●

Dave just leaned against the chair opposite to Sollxu's, relaxed, just a little impressed at how he downed the coffee in one go. "Poor soul that put up with you before. Which one of the trolls was it?"

2016-04-12 07:17:11

🌀

"You're fucking him." He replied, sculling back the last of the coffee and tapping his fingers against the table in gesture for another. He had a coding binge to start and he wanted coffee. Now.

2016-04-12 07:18:00

●

"Oh is this some sort of bullshit with twos again? You dated him so you're dating me now just because?" Dave couldn't help but be jelous though. More protective than jelous. Still, he went to get the coffee pot and just brought it to Sollux

2016-04-12 07:20:36

🌀

"Nope. Well, maybe a little but more so for the fact that you're a piethe of shit with problemth tho blaringly obviouth that I need to fixth you. Well, not you completely becauthe ew, too much work leave that to the fish, but damn you could uthe a bit of a knocking down a few pegs."

2016-04-12 07:22:09

●

Dave rose a brow, thinking a little. If he paid close attention, it was like saying that Sollux kinda cared about him. "Do tell whatever it is that you need to fix, oh dear human mechanic."

2016-04-12 07:25:10

🌀

He pulled a face, "you want a mechanic you gotta go with Zahhak, and believe me when I thay that even Eridan wouldn't tap that, and he'th known for being dethperate. I deal with hardware. You really wanna bare your personal shit to thith cafe, Thtrider?"

2016-04-12 07:40:18

●

"I'm an open book, baby, go ahead." As long as they were just chatting quietly it should be fine. He finally took a seat. "I'm interested now, mister stalker."
