[Samantha actually expected that most people who cared were already aware of this by now. She only had an idea because, honestly, she'd kept tabs on Feferi's network presence ever since she'd returned, mostly for personal reasons, more than a few of them related to Eridan. Still, Sollux hadn't posted it up yet, which she imagined probably had to do with the mad-house that was his life. She didn't want to risk Eridan ending up squawking on the network unbridled, and this wasn't something she wanted Jade or Roxy to have to deal with again. So, there she was, seated behind her alchemical tools, glancing at the screen and looking uncomfortable.

She wasn't good at this, and she barely knew Feferi, but some of the alternatives she suspected were a lot worse.]

So, I think more than a few of you already know, but it's easy to miss these things sometimes. Feferi's gone from Asgard again. The way things work around here, she might be back, or she might not.

Yeah, not really much else to say. Figured some people might want to know. God, I suck at these...

[...eugh. People leaving. Her worst nightmare.]

Someone you were close to?

Eridan killed her, back in her world. We were... complicated. Nice enough for a troll, but it was always awkward as hell.

[IF SHE HAD A FACEPALM ICON IT WOULD BE GETTING SOME MILEAGE RIGHT HERE

but since i don't you get this]

Video; LMAO SORRY I REPLIED TO THE WRONG LEVEL...

[zodiacal]

Somehow-- I don't think that's what people would usually describe as "complicated".

hehe, it happens (switching to private)

[samantha_grey]

Yeah, I think I've told you trolls were weird. Demons too, but you knew that already. She and I were able to talk, believe it or not. She just thought I was an idiot for seeing him, and really doesn't want anything to do with him.

private forever;

[expy]

Well, no shit. I wouldn't exactly want to get all chummy with my murderer, either. [ughhh.] Did you know he killed her before hooking up?

[samantha_grey]

No, and it might have colored my choices some, but then again remember. I met him while trying for Gamzee, and he's more fucked up than Eridan in some ways.

Besides, when you've woken up covered in blood, it's a little hard to judge other people for the blood on their hands.

[expy]

Your taste in men is fucked up. [SUPER DUPER BLUNTLY. Not a care given.]

Nah. I'd still judge plenty, depending on the circumstances.

[samantha_grey]

I'm seriously fucked up Eve, in case you haven't noticed. I ... can't do normal. It never works. At least he isn't trying to kill me. That's actually an improvement over Dusk.

[zodiacal]

I'm guessing this-- [WEIRD SECOND LONG PAUSE. Like she choked pronouncing that but didn't.] --Dusk, thought turning your girlfriend into a corpse was a cute romantic gesture?

[samantha_grey]

No... she just wanted to kill me when we first met. She was a undead slayer of some sort and a necromancer. Apparently her order didn't like demons either, and ... well, I sort of stole her first kiss when I got really pissed off at her.

[expy]

Somehow, I don't think getting pissed at someone should end up in making out.

[samantha_grey]

Look. She insulted me for being half succubus when we were stuck on the same side doing a tag-team fight. I don't like being told to use my demonic wiles to seduce someone I'm fighting, especially not when they assume all I'm here for is sex.

So, when we ended up paired off, I freaking kissed her to make the point... and well, kinda knocked her unconscious. Succubus kiss and all.

[zodiacal]

Yeah-- I get that. [A beat.] The succubus kiss part, I mean. Not the part about kissing someone you should have probably punched in the face.

[samantha_grey]

I did that too. And the gut, and drained the hell out of her with an enervating beam that I knew the trick to, but that's sort of beside the point. I was mad at her, and I wasn't thinking straight, and it seemed like a great idea at the time.

Well, she kind of went batshit on me and tried to drag me to hell herself. Nearly killed us both before she pulled me out of the waters of Styx. Neither of us were thinking too straight in general that whole competition. Didn't help that I had a demon whispering in my ear the whole damned time.

[zodiacal]

[ ]

Your life is way too complicated. Why can't it ever be, "I punched someone in the face and they buzzed off"?

[samantha_grey]

Because I do that all the time. Those guys don't get obsessed over me and drag me to the river styx for stealing their first kisses.

[zodiacal]

I don't know what's worse. That you admit to doing that several times, or that the Styx is actually a river where you're from?

[samantha_grey]

Styx. What's wrong with punching assholes?

[zodiacal]

If you do it too much, you catch their stupidity.

[samantha_grey]

Eh, I'll take the risk. Never got so much as a sniffle in my life, after all.

[zodiacal]

You sure? Stupidity's seven times more infectious than the flu, you know.

[samantha_grey]

I guess that must mean I'll probably catch Fin-Rot's version of it at some point. Oh well. I'll just have to deal with it.

[zodiacal]

Remind me to try and mourn you when that happens.

[samantha_grey]

Not planning to die of fin-rot, Eve. [Hear her roll her eyes.]
