A wild TYL Kanaya appears

[restoretherace]

My dear writer... Is now really the time for us to meet? I've got a rather significant social gathering to attend fairly soon. Or, well, if you're going to permit me more self-awareness, then I suppose I don't, but that still means my past self should.

As grateful as I am for all of your effort in arranging this, I was really doing quite well in the ten years you left me alone. Which is more than can be said for my current counterpart. She needs your attention much more than I do - I am after all an adult who can take care of herself.

If we're really going to be doing this... I'd just like to be sure it won't be destabilizing. The harmony we enjoy in Exsilium now is something I've worked hard to maintain.

[restoretherace]

Not even there yet? Don't joke around, that's so thoroughly the opposite of true that--

Oh, Eridan, goodness gracious, you're so young...

[restoretherace]

Nope! Nothing of the kind. No alternate idiocy. Any dancestral similarities are merely a natural consequence of aging. I'm just your older sessionmate.

Whatever you say, dear.

[caligulas_aquarium]

[He hadn't expected this. Uh.

What do.]

About whom you'd expect. The population hasn't changed much as far as you're concerned.

That would be going a little far.

[restoretherace]

Well, you've been in a romantic relationship with a human for several years...
To outside observers, it's a legitimate question.

[caligulas_aquarium]

human ones maybe
but as far as i can tell wwere both still trolls
or at least one of us but you certainly aint a human neither

[restoretherace]

The point is that you're not!
Though there are certainly lots of awkward questions when humans come over to our hive.

[caligulas_aquarium]

[...]

[restoretherace]

[Clearly enjoying this far too much.]

[restoretherace]

Yes and no!
Yes, I meant to convey that we live together.
No, nobody else lives with us.
Assuming the Mother Grub doesn't count.

That reminds me, if you see past me, feel free to tell her that your blood is delicious.

[caligulas_aquarium]

What, you think I don't drink his?
I know you were so paranoid back then, but let's be realistic.
You'd be a pretty poor excuse for a moirail if you didn't even let me do that.
