[The feed turns on showing the disgruntled face of none other than Eridan Ampora. However, half his grey face is covered by a scarf pulled up to his nose, leaving only his glaring eyes and thick-rimmed glasses in view. Even his fins are covered by the fluffy blue-striped scarf. He's also got himself parked next to one of the fire fountains, clearly using it for what warmth he can garner for himself.]

This place abso-fuckin'-lutely sucks.

[He states it as if it's purely irrefutable fact. He lets out a shiver, his eyebrows furrowing a bit more.]

Who the bloody fuck said it could get so cold? Whose worthless idea was it? This place is supposed to be some bullshit reality between life an' death or what the bloody fuck ewer poppycock they're spewin' at us with the audacity to think we're willin' to beliewe a lick a it, and yet it has weather?

[He lets out a derisive snort, clearly being a bit more dramatic than what's truly necessary. But then again, this whole post is nothing if not unnecessary. He honestly just wants to complain, to allow his woes to be heard! Because they clearly need to be heard by everyone.]

I'm callin' complete bullshit, total and utter bee-fuckin'-ess. It makes no stinkin' sense why there's weather goin' on in such a fuckin' place as this, and so they really ought to do somethin' about the decline in temperature, because I'm sure I ain't just speakin' for myself when it comes to how much I ain't lookin' forward to freezin' my globes off.

[He sniffs, a bit agitatedly.]

--Oh, and before any a you blokes get the smart idea a comin' to me tellin' me to go back inside and to get warm all proper, I do what the fuck I want and I should not be inconwenienced in such so that I gotta stay holed up in my hiwe all the goddamn time.

It's fuckin' ridiculous.

Well, I surwiwed on my own takin' on a whole planet a fast as fuck angels by myself for a perigee straight. Each one took a consecutiwe minute of fire from my legendary gun to take down. Does that giwe you a idea?

[And honestly, he's even stronger now that he's in tune with his hope powers.]

Well then, me thinks that certainly makes things simpler by a whole fuckin' shit ton.

[Eyebrow up. You know what, if you'd told him that six months ago he'd probably have just burst out laughing. Now? Not so much. Because he's met plenty of people who can do just that.]

Fair enough. Big guns. Got it.

[He smiles at the next part, shakes his head.]

Yeah. I'll draw up some preliminaries and drop you a line when we've got something workable.

[If you think that's crazy, the troll Empress has subjugated entire planets completely on her own. Trolls are a pretty ridiculously powerful species.]

[Also Eridan likes that he's being taken seriously. Not that there's a reason to not, he's just used to his old companions who would rather mock him to his face, than actually worry about what sort of threat he could actually pose.]

Sounds good. Feel free to drop me a line ewen if you're only up for idle chatter as well. I'm not opposed to desirable company, or anythin'.

[Read as: he's lonely.]

'Desirable'. Sounds like I'm moving up in the world.

[It's okay, Eridan, he speaks Spock. He can pick up on that little 'it's not like I'm lonely or anything' between-the-lines inference. Jim grins brightly.]

Hey, same to you. My inbox's always open, Highness.

You may wery well be. [He's totally not smiling or anything. Clearly a trick of the light.]

I'll be sure to keep that in mind, Captain.

[And Eridan gets a little salute, and Jim cuts the feed. He has a Project to attend to, after all. Pirate ships don't build themselves.]
