First Guitar Solo - Eddie Riggs [Video]
I'd ask if this was some kind of weird dream, but, kinda doubt that since my dreams don't get this fuckin' elaborate. Alongside the fact it isn't the first time I woke up some place different after dyin'. Is this gonna be a fuckin' trend in my life or what? What next, a land made of ice cream or some shit?
But, yeah, [He rubs the back of his neck thoughtfully. His expression serious before he summons a smile.] kinda not the point of this post, I'm wondering if anyone can give me an actual fuckin' rundown on this place? I got some shit from those- weird guys who picked me up, but, I dunno what to believe and what not to believe.
Far as I know now, havin' runnin' water is fuckin' fantastic, holy shit. Electricity- I didn't know how much I missed this shit until I woke up here. [He laughs easily at the thought.]
I'm Eddie by the way, s'nice to meet whoever replies to this weird fuckin' thing.

I don't know how they would have reacted, I'm talkin' us talkin' alone damn it, not you going 'LALALALA LET ME ANNOUNCE THIS SHIT IN FRONT OF EVERYONE LIKE A DIPSHIT'. You're- were, are, whatever- smart. We could have thought on somethin'!
[He just covers his face with his hands, giving an irritated sound back.] What-the-fuck-ever, Ophelia.
[video]
Or you would have just left me there anyway, or put your axe in me yourself. Like I said - I know you. Better than you could ever know me.
[she's not even looking at the monitor anymore - she's glaring off to the side, out a window in the darkness of her suite. she doesn't want to see him being anything but dead right now.]
[video]
I'm pissed because you had time, so much fuckin' time. You figured it out- made that stupid excuse about venom up to cover my ass. You could have pulled me aside in private. I trusted you then. I was crazy in love with you, like off my fuckin' rocker willin' to just kiss you senseless every time you smiled at me.
[He's just giving her a cold look, torn between being frustrated and sad.] We would have both been kicked out. Sure as shit would have changed things.
[video]
[she lashes out without thinking, sneering at the camera again, a fist curled in an attack position. too bad there's only a monitor to smash, and if she does that, she'll have to get it fixed. a pain, she assumes.]
Maybe it would have changed things. But you would have lost in the end. You and me against the whole human army and an entire demon empire? We'd both be dead. More dead than this. But hey, as long as we were together, right?
[she's throwing aside his logic in the face of her own anger and desire to keep the hate between them going. don't think about what could have been - only plow on forward, make sure this hate never ends.]
[video]
Like I haven't lost already, Ophelia? You seem to forget you are-were fuckin' important to me. [Eddie isn't feeding the anger, not yet. He's more ambivalent over anything else.] Feels like a fuckin' loss to me, especially when you're so set on killin' me.
[video]
[the fact that he keeps ... agreeing with her, basically, is throwing her off. she's still furious, still hates him, but she was expecting him to try and hunt her down with his axe drawn, not ... try to come to terms with things.
it's bizarre, and that's making her even angrier. better than being confused, anyway.]
Like you have anybody to blame but yourself for all that. And - weren't you pretty dead-set on killing me, right up until someone beat you to the punch? Fair's fair.
[video]
Yeah, cause I was fuckin' pissed at you. I was mad I couldn't change shit, mad at you for attackin' and not leavin' shit alone. We're both at fault by this fuckin' point, Ophelia.
[video]
I'm still holding you accountable - for most of it, anyway. Don't think that realizing your mistakes is going to get you back on my good side. It just makes your own inevitable death a little less painless.
[admitting to it at all is making her want to scream. instead she just puts her fingers back on the keyboard, fixing eddie with an icy glare.]
Anything else? Because I have things to do, here. And I'd rather not let you take up any more of my time, unless you're going to spontaneously combust.
[video]
Oh, I'll release you then. Cause god forbid I take up your precious murder time.

ophelia disconnects the video feed a little more harshly than she intends, possibly breaking something in the keyboard while she does so.]
