Yo.

Eq is pretty damn upset with Eridan right now, mostly because he found out about the whole murder thing. He has no problem with culling, but it's totally unacceptable that Eridan would harm Feferi, and more importantly? He gave up. You could call him a hypocrite because Equius "gave up" in his own way, but since when have any of these trolls been remotely rational?

Before that, though, and if Eri can ever explain himself well enough to Eq for him to get over it... Here in Sing now that Eri's chilled the fuck out a bit, got his quadrants filled? Eq doesn't dislike him nearly as much anymore and wouldn't even mind hanging out. He is a highblood and a forevveralonebro, after all.

Sup.

Davesprite seems... A bit more mellow than Dave, and is maybe technically not really even a human anymore? Also because of timeline shit maybe this one is slightly less responsible for their imminent demise, so he's quite a bit more tolerable.

Still doesn't really like him, though.

heyyyyyyy

Eq can't really detect much difference between the two Terezis and hasn't interacted with them much here. Terezi seems to generally be a bit more rational about most things than the rest of the trolls (even if she is kind of manipulative and the smelling/licking of things and subsequent comments about it get on his nerves) and she's only two steps below him in blood. That combined with her interest in the law gives him a considerable respect for her, but he'd never admit that out loud.

tHAT ICON IS, mAKING ME UNCOMFORTABLE,

HOW'S THIS ONE

Okay I blackship Vri <3< Eq like whoah but I try to keep that out of my games, especially since her quadrants are pretty neatly tied up already. :P

Vriska is a huge bitch and he wouldn't have it any other way. She's a step below him in blood, sure, but he generally considers her an equal (usually only commenting on his superiority to irritate her or when she pisses him off). Like most bluebloods they have a history of backstabbing and other bullshittery but they remain on good terms.

He genuinely respects her opinions (he's certainly not holding back abuse of Davesprite's, uh, sprite-ness out of fear or kindness, after all). Eq also generally wants to stay in her good graces and would prefer to be on her side in most disputes, and not just because he knows she can be dangerous.

2up

Equius has no idea what he thinks about Sollux anymore. As he said in the truth meme, he genuinely finds Sollux kind of funny but has generally despised him (in a platonic way) for a long time. It's not just Sol's blood color: Equius is jealous of fuck of Sollux, and that's why he'd generally prefer to avoid and ignore the guy than yell at him. While Eq focuses on machines he still has to write their AI's, and the fact that Sollux is better at programming really gets to him, his psychic powers probably put him on a level equal to if not above Equius in combat ability, and that's all in addition to Sol' long-time friendship with Aradia.

Speaking of, holy shit! Equius has no idea what to do here! He doesn't even want to go cull Sollux, because if he's who can make Aradia happy then so be it. It's left him in a weird place. He hates Sollux and wants to think of him as a lesser, but the guy has bested him in almost every conceivable way now. How is that possible, with his disgusting inferior blood!?

Equius has a hard time with sarcasm, especially when it's far more subtle and reserved such as with Rose. Because of that he actually thinks she's quite polite. To top it off, she's not the one directly responsible for "the problem" and seems to be the only one going out of her way to break the game in order to defy their fate.

He still doesn't like her, but she's definitely Eq's least hated of the kids.

Before Sing Eq was pretty confused about Karkat anyway. He'd assumed that hiding his blood color must have meant he was low, and to make things worse nobody orders Equius Zahhak around. Well, y'know, unless they're Gamzee or he's feeling kinky. As the game progressed, though, Karkat proved he wasn't a complete failure and actually brought them together. Eq was theorizing that these noble qualities must mean that he had to be on the upper ends of the spectrum, and he'd even consider him a leader.

Now they're at Sing. They're not in the game anymore, so Eq doesn't really need Karkat as a leader and finds him mostly annoying. At the party, Eq played mental connect the dots and despite the alcohol remembers Karkat's mutant blood, but... What does mutant mean? Sure he's an aberrant, but is he unnaturally low or unnaturally high? It is truly a conundrum.

Karkat, despite having such an outwardly low threshold for bullshit, seems to be one of the few trolls that will put up with the sweaty douche. Even if that were purely because it's the "leaderly" thing to do, Eq is noticing that and he appreciates it.

HOW DO I RESPOND TO THIS

I HAVE BEEN BESTED)

(Haha, I was really looking forward to your counter-rap! Maybe they should just public rap battle some time. They could crash the battle of the bands! Well, whenever Eq manages to crawl out of his broken robot pile and stop crying over Aradia.)

Dave is pretty STRONG, if not in pure physical muscle then in skill and his time powers, and Eq can respect that. He can also relate to bottling up emotions and hiding behind some cooldude shades, but Dave's apparent insincerity about... Well, everything completely infuriates him. Plus there's the whole thing where he still blames Dave for dooming them to extinction no matter how many people tell him it wasn't their fault.

In Sing especially, Dave's troll mutations really get under the blueblood's gray skin: he's not a troll, he's a freak and a mockery of real trolls, and being rails with Sollux makes him easier to hate by association.

That all said, if Vriska can tolerate him enough to keep up a blackmance then Equius thinks there's gotta be some kind of redeeming quality there. He just can't (and doesn't care if he ever does) see it.

hi.........

Equius is really confused. I don't think he really know what it means to have true, love-esque flushed feelings for someone but the way he feels about Aradia is basically as close to that as he's ever experienced. It started out as just a creepy obsession (and it still kind of is... If nothing else you can't deny he's still creepy). He was more interested in the idea of Aradia than the girl herself, but when she exploded? Equius realized that he was upset for her sake, not because he'd lost his chance at some hot robo-ass.

Aradia showing up in Sing was one of the best things that had happened to Equius. She made him want to change, not just because it would put him on her good side, but for himself too. If the lowest of the low in their society could be so... Perfect, even after losing everything, experiencing blue bloodedness, then going back to her old self and regaining emotion, maybe he'd been wrong about everyone else?

Aaaaaaand then that went sour. Eq's not even upset, he just wants her to be happy. Why did he think he could change? She's better off without him now, he thinks. He's still working through a lot of things and doesn't really know what else to do but avoid her, and some part of him thinks Sollux was right: he's bad for her in every sense, and that just makes the whole thing worse.

AUGH MY HEART THIS IS LEGIT THE SADDEST THING........ shhhh equius come here she doesn't hate you!! f...friends can hug too right.....
