KARKAT: WE ALL MISS HIM.
SOLLUX: bull2hiit, almo2t none of you evven liiked me.
KARKAT: SOLLUX. DUDE.
SOLLUX: ...2orry.
KARKAT: IT’S KINDA CUTE AND KINDA FREAKY AND ACTUALLY PRETTY SAD OF YOU TO TALK AS HIM.
KARKAT: BUT YOU’RE NOT ERIDAN. YOU’RE YOU. AND WE’LL GET TO SEE HIM AGAIN BUT NOT RIGHT NOW.
KARKAT: I THINK EVEN IF YOU DID JUST FIND HIM ON THE STREET, IT WOULD HURT YOU MORE. HE DOESN’T KNOW YOU AT ALL.
KARKAT: JUST ASK MITUNA.
KARKAT: KEEPING OUR DISTANCE IS PROBABLY THE BEST.
== SOLLUX has opened a conversation with ROSE at 11:29. ==
ROSE: Sollux, how nice of you to speak to me.
ROSE: Though I think we both know that you’re here for something else.
SOLLUX: 2o wiill you giive iit two me?
ROSE: No.
ROSE: I feel that Eridan and I will become very good friends, and I can’t be a good doctor if I share his information, even if you were him for a moment.
SOLLUX: can’t a troll ju2t reuniite wwiith hii2 2priitemate iin peace
ROSE: No.
ROSE: Not when it could put that spritemate in a situation where he would perhaps experience far too much stress and trauma if he did choose to remember.
SOLLUX: do you know thii2 for 2ure?
SOLLUX: iim not lookiing for hiim two remember everythiing
SOLLUX: ii ju2t wwant him twwo remember me
ROSE: I'm afraid that most of his memories with you are heavily dependent on everything else.
ROSE: Everything that is the Eridan you remember is all because of what he has gone through.
ROSE: He's gone. This Eridan holds false memories of a different life. He believes himself to be born from the mothergrubs here, and raised by a human-style family.
ROSE: He has parents. One troll, one human. The Eridan you know is locked away behind a facade.
ROSE: Do you know why Eridan would have chosen to forget everything, Sollux?
