[action] in the lobby and wandering

[hindsight2fold.livejournal.com]

[Sollux is simply wandering around looking for a crowded place and someone he can ask for help. He doesn't know where he is, and he doesn't know how he knows where he is, cause last time he checked he hadn't really learned how to smell colors yet like Terezi had, but right now he has a vague idea of his surroundings, however blurry and poorly formed they may be and he can "see" well enough to know he's not back in the veil anymore. He's carrying his letter in his hand, but he can't actually see the words on the paper in order to read them.]

Right, give the letter to the blind troll. That makes a lot of sense.

[He grumbles to himself. He's just going to keep wandering around grousing until he can work up the nerve to ask someone for help.]

[Well, you were sort of asking for it, Sollux. But he lets go rather quickly and takes a step back, holding his hands up placatingly]

I-

Forgive me. This is just...

[He runs his hand over his face, wiping the sweat from his brow]

What exactly did this... lifedebt... entail?

[hindsight2fold.livejournal.com]

Well you did kind of whatever I said even though I didn't really want you to? It was really kind of weird.

I guess you were just pretty intent on paying me back or whatever.

[gulp]

[it was as he feared]

Are... Would you be interested in continued collection of this debt. Even though I am from the past, and have not yet experienced such an ordeal?

[Pleasesayyes,nowait,no,thiswholethingissolewdanddepravedandwrong]

[hindsight2fold.livejournal.com]

I really. Don't care. I'm okay with whatever.

Oh. [That means the choice to serve one so much lower than him is his own. And that should he chose to begin this venture, he could not chose to simply stop whenever he felt like it, oh no. That would be shameful, to go back on his word, even to a lowblood.]

[Ugh. He hated decisions like this. But maybe...]

Be more assertive in your position on this, lowblood! I owe you a debt, and it is your responsibility to take the reins and collect what is due to you! Either take command of me and all my glorious STRENGTH, or release me from your service, permanently! I order it!

[Yeah, that totally sounded like powerful and confident and not at all like he wanted to be Sollux's whipping boy.]

Yeah, think I'm going to pass on making your decisions for you.

[Twitch]

Don't give me that look, mustardblood! You should consider yourself so lucky that I would be so magnanimous as to give you the choice! However, if you're going to sit there and be rude, I'll not do a thing for you!

In fact, I'm leaving right now. Have fun finding your way back to the dorms, loser.

[hindsight2fold.livejournal.com]

Yeah, it's been great talking to you too!
