"Amazing. This is why I'm dating you, you're naturally cunning." He teased, going to get dressed so that he could go to work. A good ten minutes later, he was ready to go, and got a goodbye kiss before leaving.

Eridan decided he'll wait for Dave, because he still had enough time to drive to the breeder so he didn't have to rush. He had the new collar and little kitty lead in his car already anyways. "Make sure you have your phone on, and if your boss gets pissy at you just say that you found the guy who's been passive aggressively making my life miserable and you're helping me extract my revenge while doing your work."

He smiles, rolling his eyes. "It'll be fine, my coworkers don't mind covering me. Plus, that means they get more tips. Alright, later babe."

He goes down to his own car, starting the engine, and is soon driving to work.

🌀

"Still." He kissed his forehead and followed him down, getting into his own car and driving off.

Sollux is already there when Dave gets in, sitting with his laptop in front of him and a coffee. He glances up at Dave and silently holds out a small plastic container with the nose ring in it.

●

Dave rolls his eyes, walking right past him, and only comes back once his apron is on. "Well you aren't creepy or anything, good morning."

2016-05-08 11:41:26

🌀

"I said I'd give you the nose ring today, and I am." He shook the box a little, turning his attention back to his screen.

"Are you really alright with it?" He said, meaning the red thing they were all going to try.

Eridan pulled up outside the house, and pretty soon he was sitting back in his car with the kitten curled up against his chest. She was a gorgeous little ginger tabby and Eridan happily took a selfie with her curled up on his scarf and sent it to Dave.

"With what, the ring? I guess, it doesn't look as horrible as I thought." He shrugs, taking the box. "How much did this cost?" As he waits for the reply, he opens the box, slipping out his black nose ring and switching it for the golden one after struggling with the clasp for a little. He feels the phone buzz, but doesnt check it until after the ring is on.

He smirks once he checks it, and shows the picture to Sollux. "Jealous that I get to pet all of that first?" He said jokingly.

2016-05-08 11:48:49

🌀

"No you shit. The red thing. And were you really reading over Eridan's shoulder." He looked a little smug when he saw the nose ring in and the little gemini symbol worked into the gold metal. It was only visible up close, but he knew and that was enough.

He looked at the picture, and couldn't help but 'aw' a little. "I didn't think he'd actually get one."

2016-05-08 11:51:19

●

"Sure, I'm pretty alright with it, as long as you aren't a shit to him." He shrugs. "But how much did this cost?" He persisted. "It looks expensive as shit."

"Yeah, he's been planning on doing it for a while. I still think he should have gotten a persian cat. Love those little balls of fur."

2016-05-08 11:53:45

🌀

"I'm not telling you that." He rolled his eyes, flicking his hand at him. "It's not pure gold or anything, so don't fret your little head."

"Persians shed like crazy though. And he hates cleaning. And their faces are weird." He sipped at his coffee.

2016-05-08 11:58:15

●

He raises a brow, suspicious. "It looks like pure gold though. C'mon, give me price ranges. 100 bucks?"

"Their faces are adorable, you shut your lispy mouth." He rolls his eyes. "Have you seen a persian cat shove it's face into a cup? No? It's the best thing ever. Also do you like cats, wow"

2016-05-08 12:00:05

🌀

"Couple hundred. Give or take. I didn't read the price." He looked bored, checking his nails like a tool. Oh, no wait he has a hangnail. Fuck. Ow.

"They look dumb. You wanna know what he should have gotten. A munchkin cat. Now those are adorable. Or a siamese. Or a norwegian forest cat. Anything but a persian."

2016-05-08 12:03:00

●

Both of his eyebrows shot up, and he looked surprised. "Why would you spend that much on a nose ring, holy shit. Now I have like... two sugar daddies."

"He wanted a munchkin cat. I have no fucking clue of what those are, because I don't know cat breeds, but yeah. Persians are fluffy and adorable." He checked himself out on his phone's camera, making sure the ring looked nice.

2016-05-08 12:05:38

🌀

"It's custom made. And the nose rings available look shitty and I will not have any of my quadrantmates with shitty jewelry. And fuck you I'm not buying you more stuff."

"He should have gotten one. I doubt there are any good breeders around though. They're an expensive breed. Feferi would have his fins if he got one because she'd probably chalk it up to frivolous spending." he mused.

2016-05-08 12:07:19

●

"Aw, I was hoping you'd pay for my shit from now on. At least a dinner or two, you gotta be reasonable." He teased, really not wanting anything from him.

"He said the closest breeder was 3 hours away, that's why he didn't get one. I don't know, cats are cute no matter the breed, but they aren't big dogs. Big dogs are the shit."

2016-05-08 12:09:59

🌀

"Hell no." he rolled his eyes, shaking his head at him.

"I think he would have driven that far, so the breeder probably wasn't a good one. And cats are always better than dogs. Dogs just... they're far too happy all the time. Except Chihuahuas. They're just angry."

2016-05-08 12:28:58

●

He mock-gasps in disbelief. "I cannot believe. Get out of my cafe, dogs are fucking great."

2016-05-08 12:30:15

🌀

"I'm an anti-social asshole, of course I would go for cats." he glanced at his now empty coffee, and then up at Dave. "Refill please."

2016-05-08 12:44:12

●

"Why do I put up with you." He muttered to himself, going to get him his refill and going to work, since he wanted to avoid talking to Sollux. No one shit talks dogs.

2016-05-08 12:47:49

🌀

Eridan ended up sending more photos of his new kitten once he arrived back to his place. A lot more photos.

Like, wow. Eridan went on overdrive.

2016-05-08 12:48:40

●

Dave definitely didn't have time to check all of them. Not even half, honesty, but he eventually said that and just said he'd pet the cat when he was home, now was not the time to get distracted. In a nicer way though, because Eridan was always afraid he was bothering Dave. He also sent a picture of his new nose ring.

2016-05-08 12:49:53

🌀

Eridan rolled his eyes at the nose ring, but as soon as the text came through that Dave didn't want any more photos, he stopped sending them, realising that he was probably bothering Dave and might even be getting him in trouble. Not good.

2016-05-08 12:52:31

●

He had a shift up to 1pm, so when that time came, he glanced around to see if Sollux was still there or if he would go have lunch with Eridan.

2016-05-08 12:53:45

🌀

Sollux had left around 12, and surprisingly didn't annoy Dave that much. He did have his head pretty much buried in his computer though.

2016-05-08 12:58:34

●

Once he checked that he wasn't there, he just got ready to go home and pet a cat. He was going to pet that cat so fucking much.

He got them some food on the way there, some japanese takeout, and knocked on the door once he got to Eridan's apartment.
