[OPEN] I don't wake up early every morning

[chronomancer]

Characters: [AU1] Eridan Ampora & you!
Setting: Media floor.
Format: I'll start with Action, but I'll match your preference.
Summary: Eridan is taking this whole swapped body really well. Or maybe he's too exhausted to make much a fuss about it. Either or.
Warnings: ...fabulous jadebloods in fabulous skirts?

[Eridan took the whole thing in stride. He couldn't really tell if it was aplomb or just flat out not giving a shit, though. He changed the shirt, put on his spare sunglasses and when he found his pants just wouldn't stay on his new hips, shrugged it off and kept the skirt. It was kinda comfy anyway. So after dropping a line in the network, he made his way to the media room, intent on watching movies until Kanaya saw his message and swung by to talk to him.

Well, that was the idea. Not even halfway through the first one, Eridan fell asleep. So now there's a jadeblood sprawled on a couch, in a very unladylike fashion, wearing an aquarius shirt and a pair of ridiculous sunglasses.

Might be snoring a little, too.]

Comments

[And now Eridan feels bad. He offers her a concern look.]

It's okay, I'm sorry for upsetting you.

[heavenscorpse]

No, I'm sorry, I didn't realize it was a creepy thing to say.

[chronomancer]

Don't worry about it, I just... being here, I sort of had to ask.

[He offers an uneasy smile.]

Would you like me to explain about something else then?

[heavenscorpse]

Whatever you want to talk about is fine.

[chronomancer]

Oh. Well... I could explain what I meant by ancestors earlier?

[heavenscorpse]

Yes, please. That was confusing.

[chronomancer]

Ah, well. We don't have families? At least not in the human sense. I don't know if you have them, in your world.

[He shrugs.]

But supposedly, ages before you're hatched, there's a troll that genetically matches you almost perfectly. They're your ancestor and you're supposed to follow on their footsteps. Highbloods are really into that but most lowbloods think it's folktales and stuff.

[heavenscorpse]

It sounds like it could be a lot to live up to.

Families, well... Human species have them, like normal, but I'm not human and I don't.

[chronomancer]

If you believe in it, I guess. I mean, it's not like you'd normally get to actually meet your ancestor.

[He shrugs a little.]

Ah, what's it like, for you?

[heavenscorpse]

Well, it's like... does your planet have plants? It's like that.
