The ruler of this place is a female and yet she rules it so completely different than what I'd expect. Everything here is...easy and the rules are...simple.
Does anyone here that has power of any kind rely on any form of deity? And if so, do you still feel a connection to them here? Or just have the powers they gave you?
[So he doesn't really want to know about you personally. He's more trying to work out in advance if any of his sisters or higher born females arrive if they're gonna be bad news.]

[voice]
Oh? And how did she do that?
She's really a goddess. [He's making a face at the fact she could maybe cross over here, too bad you can't see it. It's beautiful.]
I'm male, so no where near as much as a priestess. [He's failing to mention that what he can do is harmless but...whatever, right?]
[voice]
Well, considerin' her plans on dealin' with Mal--er, that guy, I can't say I ain't impressed with her methods. I expected somethin' a little more peaceful considerin' she looks like the other pink apes fillin' this place.
Alright, fine, I'll giwe ya the benefit a the doubt that this Lolth thing IS a god. Though methinks it's a stinkin' pile a be ess. Also, what does you bein' male got to do with anythin'? [Sure, his species is ruled by an Empress, but males aren't nearly as subjuggated as Drow males are.]
[voice]
There's actually a plan to all of this? I thought it was nothing more than forcing those of us with talent together with the useless and wait around for something exciting.
You're not from my world, I wouldn't expect you to understand how it works. [He sighs.]
Because it's the females that hold all the power and it always has been.
[voice]
[He is so full of shit right now.]
Ain't you giwin' the group that's here a bit too much credit? I can hardly agree we're a group of "talent". Some a us, definitely, but to group us all together is just fuckin' wrong.
Also, on my planet we had a Empress, and it's always been a Empress, in fact it's bloody impossible for there to be anythin' but a female tyrian blooded troll, so. Still ain't gettin' your meanin' any. Are you suggestin' that males are inferior to females? 'Cos I will tell you right now that's the downright stupidest shit I'we ewer had the displeasure a processin'.
[voice] Go me, thought I'd replied to this.
[He is so calling this bs.]
I never said anything about a group. I said those of us with talent.
We have Matron Mothers, heads of the family and the one house that has more power than the rest. In my society, males are seen as inferior yes. Females have more power because Lolth favours them more, females become priestesses and really, it sounds stupid but you wouldn't want to mess with one. They'd be even quicker to kill you where you stood than I would. That's not to say males can't have some position of power.
[voice] Ahaha it happens
[Aaand Eridan is going to keep it up as long as possible.]
So in other words, you were discludin' yourself in that. Gotcha.
I see, sounds real fuckin' pat-stunted if you ask me. See, my society rightly discriminates against blood color but that's because it actually means somethin', like, biological superiority, and not somethin' stupid like gender. I literally cannot ewen fathom how fuckin' dumb that is because that doesn't affect anythin'. [At least not for trolls, gender for trolls is actually completely pointless for how they operate biologically.] But glad to hear that you got yourself a somewhat sensibly wiolent society. Gettin' real sick a these humans and their friendly peaceful-like society. It's a wonder they'we made it as far as they did, to be perfectly honest.
[voice]
Hilarious.
[Despite not being seen he's shrugged.]
I never said it was smart, if I could have it my way, I'd have roles reversed or at least so we can have more footing in our own damn lives. [And then he quickly falls quiet because there was a few reasons he had asked the question that he had. But...he's still alive, so he's feeling a little more bold.]
And there's so many of them here, it's tiresome hearing about their problems and their 'thanksgiving'. They care too much about everything and that's their weakness. Well, one of their many weaknesses. I think the fact they've got as far as they have can be put on their combined idiocy.
[voice]
An' I'm a right comedian, I know.
[And Eridan nods. You'd think they should just put up video, but alas.]
I getcha. Is that why you were askin' about powers from deities? 'Cos you don't want to face the wrath a your own for hawin' heretical wiews and the like? [While Eridan thinks their way of ruling is fucking stupid, he still has some respect for how they uphold their ways. It's their culture, after all, and from Eridan's view point, Dinin would basically be a lowblood complaining about highbloods. Which, makes him feel less than sympathetic towards him, even if he does think the gender thing is pretty dumb.]
Agreed. An' that wery well may be it. I don't get this holiday, but they seem pretty damn infatuated with it. They're a whiny and pathetic species, and I'm outright offended that I got to be subjected to their ilk.
[He'll just leave out the fact he's been invited to a Thanksgiving dinner and is going, as well as having made a friend that's human. But whatever.]
[voice]
From what I understand it's just an excuse to stuff their face and spend time with each other. Which I wouldn't be surprised if all their little holidays were centred around the constant need for attention and food. [He might just slam his head against a wall when he hears about Christmas because shit, this will be awful.]
I'm offended at being here period.
[voice]
Seems to be the case, yeah. They're all about attention and positiwe emotions, and it's pretty pathetic watchin' 'em grasp for it so desperately.
[A sigh.]
Well, of course I am too, but it's worsened with them crawlin' ewerywhere. Glad to know I ain't alone in my disgusted regard for their ilk.
[voice]
It's sickening, though it does mean they have plenty of weaknesses to exploit.
I thought it was bad enough that I was brought to the surface world, and then I saw who I was stuck with. I was afraid that everyone here might have been like them, but pleasantly surprised to see otherwise.
[voice]
Yes they fuckin' do. Makes 'em easy to play too, always expectin' the best outta ya, ewen when you got no reason to be held in such a regard.
[He lets out an amused sound, almost like a laugh.] Is that your way a sayin' you like me? Aaw, I'm touched.
[voice]
[Now that would be something he would wish was true for him as well, having no siblings. His family was a little on the messed up side. He doesn't like to talk about it :|
He's grinning now.]
That's one of the small delights I'm finding here.
[And then there's a snort and a bark of laughter.] I wouldn't go that far.
[voice]
Aw, come now, I'd say we're well on our way to a established friendship. [Of course he's being sarcastic, but he's, maybe, somewhat being sincere. Just a little. He kinda likes this guy, and he much rather make enemies with humans than the non-humans. Though, he's fine regardless, beyond that 'friend' means 'enemy' where he's from anyways, so it isn't like he'd let his guard down even if they were on the more positive end a social interactions. He's a fucking island, after all, it isn't like he actually needs anyone.]
[voice]
[Pfft, who needed friends? Who needed people? They weighed you down and you never knew if they'd stab you in the back. So obviously it was best to do the stabbing first, right? And maybe being on slightly better terms with him wouldn't be too bad. Plus he didn't like the humans which was a good thing.]
Oh yes, how could I not see it? The best kind.
[voice]
[Eridan is definitely the 'stab them in the back first' type of guy. So he totally gets the mentality. Trolls kind of promoted that way of thinking, after all!]
Certainly, what else do you need to bond ower than a mutual disgust a inferior species, right?
[voice]
And with their numbers being so high, there's enough to last a good while.
[voice]
An' they only seem to be increasin'. Honestly, it's their own fault if they're dumb enough to trust someone that ain't a their own race, let alone who is wastly outnumbered by them.
[voice]
[voice]
[But Eridan doesn't sound put off by the idea, not in the slightest. He's kinda got... a thing about genocide. A thing where he really really is romanced by the idea of it.]
[voice]
[voice]
[A beat.]
Perhaps we can arrange a time and place sometime soon, I'd be down for it today, but I got a prior arrangement. [aka He's going to a Thanksgiving thing. He's a huge hypocrite.]
[voice]
I currently have nothing to do here that would get in the way of making plans. Maybe we should go by your schedule.
[voice]
That'd probably be best, I'm fairly busy after all. [more like not at all] Let's see... [There's some shuffling around, like he's looking at something, clearly his busy, busy schedule.]
We could next week sometime, I can get back with you on a specific date, assumin' nothin' comes up. [Like the approaching landfall, wwhat a surprise.]
[voice]
[And he waits, but no one said there was any kind of patience behind it.]
You know how to get in touch. [So rude of it.]
