Lost and Found-Eridan/Troll!reader/Sollux-Part 2

You're eyes widened as Nepeta told you all about the cruise she'd sent you and some Sollux guy on. It seemed this girl liked to 'ship', and quite a few of these ships included you. She explained that, almost back from the trip, the ship had capsized. Most people had gotten away and back to shore.

When nobody saw you the survivors were sent back, and everyone just assumed the worst. Even Sollux. As you thought of the name only one thing popped up. Red and blue eyes staring into yours. “What about...Sollux? What happened to him?” Nepeta looked at her paws, “H-he thought you were dead, you can't blame him...W-well, he started watching Rom-Coms with Karkitty and now I think...I think they've become matesprits...”

You bit your bottom lip. “O-oh. Well then, I guess nobody misses me afterall. I think I'll just go...You never saw me, okay?” Nepeta looked confused, “Okay...But where will you go?” Just as she asked Eridan walked up behind you and set a hand on your shoulder. “Hey (Name), wwhat's going on?” He saw Nepeta and his nose wrinkled, “I see you know Nepeta...So what are you going to do (name)?”

You turned, “Can I go back with you, Eridan? I don't want to stay here...” You saw something flicker in his eyes, “Alright, you can stay at my hivve for noww.” Nepeta's tail flicked in agitation. “(Name)! You can't go with him, his main goal in life is to kill land-dwellers. And he's a rude, ugly, fish-face!” You shrugged, “Where else can I go?”

Nepeta frowned, “You could go see Sollux, or at least someone, to let your friends know your not dead.” You shook your head with a faint sad smile, “No. I am dead, for now. I'm going now, I might come back, some day. But I don't know. Bye.” You walked away, Eridan close behind you.

---Timeskip brought to you by random distractions---

Eridan looked across the room at the magistic creature that sat on a pile of scarves. She was so stunning, he could hardly believe she wasn't a dream. He'd heard Nepeta talking...How could anyone leave her for dead, even Sollux had to have more sense than that. And for that loud mutant-blood?

He shrugged, one troll's trash is another's treasure. He looked away from (name) for just long enough to send a message to Kanaya, “You should come over.” He doubted she would, they'd had a bit of a fight a while ago, that hadn't ended in a very pretty scene. Well, maybe she would show up anyway.
