Ooooooh~
I love mallies ;u;

The maid nodded, reaching down to place a hand on Karkat's shoulder and pull him to his feet, but she stumbled back a half-step when the troll stifled a violent cough; mutant blood slipping through his fingers. He jerked a bit, the back of his arm pressed to his mouth as he tried to swallow the welling blod in the back of his throat.
She looked entirely distasteful, hands held close to her chest. "Come along, Sir Vantas," the troll huffed, showing little pity as he shakily forced himself to his feet.

Karkat, Eridan (Eri <3) momo~ casey, chibitereasu <3
i loves them already....
-.-.-

Eridan almost jumped, but what could he really- there. that glass of wine. it may have been his own, but he did not care for the potent drink. he father insisted that he should like it- for who what ever reason. the boy snatched it, and swiftly brought it to the bleeding knight. he muttered a quick "Drink this" and held the glass out. he payed the maid, who seemed ruffled at best, no heed.

I don't even like puppies but AWWWW <3333

~o~o~o~
Karkat blinked bleerily at the glass, pulling back a bit as he forced his eyes to uncross. They flickered up to the Prince, obviously unsure as to why someone of high royalty would be acting so, in a word, kindly toward someone so low on the Hemospectrum that he wasn't even on it.
He steadied his hands enough to take the delicate glass, sipping the foul liquid -he never had been one for wine, in all honesty- and feeling it chase the blood down his throat. It took a rough clearing of his throat before he could mutter a quiet, "thanks.." and hand the glass back- now slicked with his own blood.
The maid was fidling and tugging at the collar of her dress, unsettled by the entire scene unfolding in front of her and rather averting her eyes toward the window as though it were the single most interesting thing on Alternia.

LOL
KARKAT SAYS
"RAWRF"
and then fidgets in my lap. his mum is short on milk, says the vet, so i got to choose one for myself and raise it as my own- i am currently typing with one hand as i bottle feed KK.
he loves me to death.
wtf.
and.. and lol. Eridan is all upset about something, and CHibi is scuffling with his sisters. such a ladies man..
_._._._._._.
Eridan nodded in response, and waved one hand at the maid- A signal that she should fix this knight up. His eyes found the window again, but the little birdthings had gone. He shook his head- He should be worrying about other things. maybe he would go the courtyard later to see someone train. It might eb a better passtime than this. "Well? Go on!" he huffed to the Maid. He too could have a temper when it was needed.

The knight flinched as though it was he that was being scolded, face bowed once more as the Maid hastily lead him out of the throne room. Once they were out of the Prince's sight, however, her already rather cold tone only worsened.
She grabbed Karkat roughly by the arm, practically dragging the battered troll up the hall and forcing him into the royal doctor's quarters. The doctor herself was out, so the Maid took the liberty of using the supplies left unguarded.
"Strip," she snuffed, watching Karkat shakily remove his tunic; leaving his bloodied and battered bdy in full veiw. Those other trolls had truly done a number on him.

Eridan looked at the highest window in the room. he could effictively escape from the castle into town from there, or watch the Knights fight eachother. he did neither. he grabbed a small rag- which he normally kept around for when he went to the older parts of the castle, to keep out the dust- and cleaned off the old glass. "It's not nececcarily his fault he gets into fights. he should be praised he even survives." he murmered to himself. a bang bang SLAM announced the arrival of his father coming home. he had clearly been in the dinning hall, drining. Eridan payed him little heed. his father rumbled past to slouch in his throne, and watched his son leave the throne room. Eridan had no interest in speaking with his drunken father. this was not unusual. he quietly stold into the cook's quarters- he often found himself going through the door which lead to the gardens and then to the courtyard in here- and sighed when he was out of the old and dusty castle.

Once the Maid had Karkat patched up -he looked like a mummy, bandages covering most of his torso, along his lower arms and even one that wrapped about his messy head to hide a heavily bruised eye and split brow.
"Well," she harmuphed*, "you heard the Prince. Off with ye! The stables won't clean themselves!"
Karkat winced as he stood up, smoothing down his worn hand-me-down pants. His shirt had been taken for a good scrubbing to rid it of at least some of the blood stains, so he opted to simply go out in bandages and pants.

((*first off, how do you even spell that word :I
Second off, maybe the stables could be nearby so Eridan could catch sight of our lil knighty-doo?))

Eridan hopped the fence- he wasn't a total idiot. he knew enough to keep himself hidden and quiet. there was still quite a ways between him and the Courtyard, and he was not keen on being spotted- he would have to go through the stables, maybe. that seemed like the best idea. and he was always there anyway.maybe today he could snag a bow and arrow?

Karkat managed to get to the stables, his breathing shuddering and uneven as he choked and spat out drying blood. He tried to push it all aside, taking a brush to try and brush down the resident hoofbeasts- best to start with the living things before moving on to cleaning their surroundings, eh supposed.

Eridan wasn't paying attention when he walked right into a barrel. He rubbed his arm, muttering a curse under his breath,and set it back in place. that's when he saw him-
Sir Vantas.
the Knight was sweeping off the hoofbeasts. Eridan noticed hos the light fell. the beasts seemed not very uncomfterble around him. when he heard one give a shrill call, he jumped, banged his head, and let out a muffled, "Codammit"

Karkat cringed and whirled around, the brush held close as though it would offer some sort of protection. The moment he noticed the Prince, his grip seemed to slacken and his eyes fall to the stable floor.
"Are you alright, your Highness?" He inquired in a quiet, rasping voice; brushing his fingers along hte bristles of the brush and swallowing thickly once more.

Eridan gave a slight nod. "You don't have to be so formal. My name is Eridan." he said, frowning because now he had a rather annoying headache. "Sorry about giving you this job" he muttered, "but my father would have killed me. how are your wounds?"

"They're fine," he lied, reaching up to rest his hand on the large animal beside him. Karkat had to sit on the top of the divider in order to reach, given his petite size and lack of energy to jump right now.
"And it's alright, too. I kinda fuckin' earned it and all.." Another lie.
Karma was going to be a bitch for this later.
"I like the hoofbeasts anyway." Truth. Better than just two lies, at least.

Eridan gave him a quick glance. "How so?I mean, how would you deserve such harshness?" he asked him.This knight was one of the ones he likes=d better than the rest, for other reasons. Karkat wasn't a dimwitted brute. he was rather modest, dare he say it.

He shrugged, motioning toward the vivid red blood that had seeped through the bandages and dried. It was the blood of a mutant.
The small troll shifted, surpressing a wince as his muscles tightened and pulled, hardly allowing him the range of motion needed to run the brush down the hoofbeast's side.

-------------------------------------------------------------
Eridan sighed, and turned around, but before he left, he told the little knight where he kept a stash of food in case he ever got sick of his father. "Between the floorboards of the firts and second stalls" he muttered. maybe he would find more use ofit than Eridan did. with that, he swung out of the old wooden stables, and took off at a fast pace towards the courtyard.

Karkat watched him go, making a small 'uhm' noise in the back of his throat. At first, he told himself he really shouldn't disturb it, given that, even with the invitation, it wasn't his- but the neglected growling in his stomach convinced him otherwise.
The small troll clambered down once the hoofbeast was thuroughly brushed, staggering over toward the divider between the chosen stalls and dropping to his knees.

Eridan finally found it- the hole in the wall where he was truly alone. it, he guessed, had been the result of a past war or something, but it was large enough to fit him and a hoofbeast in. he sat on one of the boulders from the cave-in from when it was made, and looked out through the opening at the sky- watching little creatures fly through the hole and out again, not wanting to disterb him.

As the knight peeled away one of the flooboards, his stomach lurched in both excitement and disdain as he found the food. He swallowed the roiling in his gut, opting to take only a small roll that shan't be missed and sighing in contentment as he ate it.

After a while, Dusk began to fall and the clashing of steel against steel was dying down. Eridan, of cource, was only half awake when he realised he had been gone longer than intended.

Karkat was sitting outside the stable now, rubbing at the sweat on his forehead. He'd completely cleaned out the stalls, brushed down each hoofbeast individually, fed them and filled their water trough.
It was tiring work for any troll, especially-so one who had been so injured to begin with.

Eridan dragged himself off of the boulder, and made his way- rather reluctantly- back home. when he passed the stables, he only caught a quick glimpse of Karkat- seeing as he was running now because of the fact that he was going to be killed shortly- but he figured, from the fact that the stables didnt smell bad.
When he finally got to the cooks galley, he snuck through the door again. Mavuis was still deep asleep. there would be no waking her. he lightly side-steped her, and ran, full speed, up into the throne room- to find her Father gone again. only then did he notice the empty liquior bottle, right as he went flying from a trip over it. he landed face- first, right into the stairs. cursing, he got up quickly, and brushed himself off so no one would think he had been outside. a small cut let loose some violet blood. he could care less.

unununununu
A week came and passed- and, for the first time in a long time, Karkat remained out of trouble. He still got roughed up in his day-to-day life, but there were no all-out brawls like usual.
It may or may not have had something to do with putting some effort forward, if only for the Prince's sake.
Currently he was out in the training grounds, sword clashing again and again with one of his much larger fellow knights. He usually got paired with the ones no one else would dare spar with. He met a swing for a swing most of the time, though when he felt it was out of his range, he'd duck or side-step it with petite grace.
His wounds had, for the most part, healed; allowing him his natural cat-like grace and swiftness. Having such a slight frame did come in handy during these spars- the weight of the armor (greater than his own) and the heavy sword aside. He much prefered smaller twin blades.

Eridan watched with interest. he had been here from dawn, watching the little knight roll and snatch at the offending troll's armor.he had brought with him an old journal which he had scavenged when he had been sneaking about the castle last night.he winced with metal clashed against metal. it hurt his ears. Eridan himself carried around a sword at his hip in case he needed it. suddendly, he wondered if he could, should this training session go to a full blown fight, prevent the little Knight from being hurt again.

Karkat finally managed to lay a hit against the larger troll- a harmless bang against his chest plate. The troll gave an angry grunt, having been unable to lay a hit of his own, and kicked Karkat hard in the chest to knock him back.
He hit the ground gasping for the air that had been stolen from his air pump, coughing and trying to remain still as a sword tip was placed at his jugular. Blinking slowly, gathering his wits about him, Karkat made an unnoticeably grab for his swords; a blur of movement following before he had the two of them flipped.
Panting, the boy stood on the older knight's chest -he was too small for this job, in all honesty- with one swored pinning the beast's hand and the other level with his nose.
"Don't fuck with me today," the mutant said under his breath, shaking his head a bit.

Karkat started like a cat taken off guard; jumping back off of the larger troll and holding both swords at a presicion angle for both defence and offence. His hackles went down as he recognized the Prince.
The large troll muttered and cursed under his breath, hateful scornful things about the mutantblood, as he lumbered to his feet. Karkat's eyes flickered between him and Eridan, a meek, toothless smile pulling at his lips.
He never smiled.

The small boy's smile was gone just as quickly, watching the glinting metal with both irratation and anxiety. He hated when they got like this.
The ensuing fight was far more brutal than the first had been; the metal screaming as it hit hard and fast, doubled byt he fact that Karkat was dual equppied. By the time he had, again, subdued the beastly troll, he had a cut across his cheek that left tear-like trails of red dripping down his chin.
"Ugh," he muttered, both swords in one hand as he rubbed at the blood with the other.

Eridan jumped from where he had been perched. The walls around the castle proved to be very good ways to get around.he drew his own sword, a slightly rusty wepon. he normally fought a knight he didnt know, a newer one. but that wasnt going to happen. stealing a glance at Karkat, he pointed his sword at the point where the armor met the shoulter of the larger troll. "When will you learn to keep your dignity and stand down?" he snarled.

"Tell 'is trouble makin' runt to back the fuck off, 'en!" The larger troll spat, swinging his sword around in such a sudden movement that the flat of it hit Karkat's temple and disoriented him for a moment.
"Ugh, fuck you!" He snapped, ducking below the sword adn tackling the troll with, surprisingly enough, the nessesary strenth needed to down him. Once perched on his stomach, Karkat pried the sword from his hand and held him at point with his own sword as well as his own two.

Eridan literally almost beheaded him. "He's a better swordsman then you could hope. he has soemthing called humility" he said, and sheather his own sword. "Well, i should be off. Father will have my own head if i'm not back before we're due to leave for town." he said, and hopped up onto the wall by first jumping up onto some barrels which had been stashed in the courtyard. "Bye now" he murmered, and jumped over the other side, running for the front doors.

".. yeah, bye," Karkat murmured, watching Eridan go with a small frown. What he wouldn't give to have more than a few moment's encounter with the Prince at a time...
The troll flicked him off, huffing as he snatched his sword back. "Give it up!" He humphed, though it wasn't aimed at the sword fighing- indicated by the sheathing of his sword.
"What?" Karkat narrowed his eyes, one brow quirking questioningly.
"The Prince," he grunted in exhasperation, making a disgusted motion of his hand. "He's royalty, yeh lowblood. You'll ne'er get 'em."
Karkat was caught between indignation and heightened embarrassment, his cheeks flushing suddenly at such an accusation. "I wasn't-"
"S'written all ovah yer gogdamn face!" The troll huffed, turning and marching off to presumably find another fight.

Karkat groaned as he was left alone in his little area on the practice grounds; a stifling hand pressed over the bleeding cut on his cheek.
Pff, he didn't pity the Prince.
If anything, the Prince pitied him.
If anything-
Oh gog. That thought had taken a turn rather quickly.
Shaking it off hastily, maybe a bit too much haste, he sat down and tried to calm his pulse. It was just a small show of Royal Mercy was all, he was sure.

Early morning light flitted through one of the highest rooms in the castle, onto what could be presumes to be Eridan. all it really looked like was a sleeping bundle of blankets in a large empty room. quiet snufflings could be heard as horrible dreams were seen in Eridan's sleep.

Eridan would know it wasn't him, though
Since he saw the brute and KK has told him that he loves the hoofbeasts while he tenderly cared to them

There was a quick knock at his bedroom door, followed by a maid's head peeking in. "Sir Ampora? Please rise, your highness! We have a murderous traitor currently being held int he dungeons who needs immediate punishment, if you'd please!" She said hurriedly, anxiously glancing over her shoulder.
This was it- they'd finally gotten some real dirt piled on Karkat now. Maybe they'd finally be rid of the do-gooding mutantblood now.

"Come along," she simpered, scuttling along down the hall. She lead him through the corridors and passages until they were trailing down the stairs to the cold, dark dungeon- the only light that of the barred windows that scarce beat ground-level.
In the last cell sat a small bundle, wrapped up tightly in a cloak. They were hugging their knees, head buried in their legs and body shivering with each uneven breath.
This was it. Here he was, in the dungeons. Locked away from prying eyes. About to die. And he still had no idea why.

Karkat flinched back against the wall, the hood pulled tight over his head as though all anger in Eridan's voice were directed at him. Though he couldn't help but listen; he had to know what he was being charged for, after all.
The maid took a step back, whimpering int he back of her throat. "H-he," she stuttered, looking down at her feet. "Th-they said he killed one of the royal hoofbeasts! Slaughtered'em right in the stall and everything! They s-said it was his blades stickin' outta her side-- 'n she was pregnant..!!"
The small troll looked absolutely ill when eh raised his head- he'd been brushing her not long before. She had been the one he'd lingered on and over, being sure she got her fill so her baby would be alright. He'd been excited for the first time in a long time for something...

Eridan felt a little sick. Karkat had not done this. when Eridan had been in the stables, he had taken such good care of them. why would he kill her, and even more so when she was pregnant? itmade no sense. "Miss?
you may go do what ever. i have work to do. if anything is done to him while i am not here, it will be them who has their head in thairclaws because he is innocent"
Eridan brushed past the maid. he hoped he had scarred her enough. he didn't bother with a shirt; it was a perfectly fine morning. no reason for one. though he did grab his sword and some shoes. those were good things to have. Eridan hurried out and, though he felt sick, to the stables.
they had not taken her away. she was lying there, metal swords still lingering in her hide. "I'm so sorry"
that was something he rarely said.
he gave her mane a light pat- it would have been her last, and he hoped something good had happened before she had been slaughtered- and began to search for evidense that it had been Karkat and not someone else.

whoooo

Eridan is so mad.
he knows Karkles isn't responsible.

hehe weeeee~
big troll guy took his swords :c
~-~-~-~
All of the supplies that Karkat had been using a few days previous had been caringly put away, the board hiding Eridan's small stash of food included.
The other hoofbeasts, aggitated for obvious reasons, shifted and stomped in their respective stalls; whinnying (what is spelling so early /akaelevenam) and snorting their displeasure.
The only pit of evidence available were the smaller twin swords raising from her side as though it were a sick rendition of the sword in the stone- the large, bloodied, pregnant stone.
There was no mistaking Karkat's swords.

Q.Q
noes.
;-;

Eridan rubbed his head, for it was pounding quite savagely. he looked at the other hoofbeasts, and as he walked behind them, he gave each one reassuring pats that he was not here t hurt anyone. he returned to the hoofbeast, and carefully loomked at her. she had handprints- wait.
wait a damn minuite
these handprints were too big to be Karkat's.the fur, when he souposed the mare had struggled, making the killer have to hold it, was in the shape of a large handprint.
not a tiny one!
he gathered the swords, stood, fell once or twice until he finally made it back to the courtyard. "This is going to sound stupid,
but everyone stand in a straight line. hold out your hand." he yelled.

The knights that had been training paused, giving Eridan pointed looks before sheathing their swords and lining up. No one in particular acted like the guilty culprit about to be discovered- rather, he snickered and held out a large hand.
"What're ye doin', Princess?" He inquired in that same thick, loud voice he'd been insulting Karkat with before.

Eridan gave him a light chickle. "You're the one to blame here. i knew it. why would he kill one after taking such good care of it?" he muttered. "Come along. now." he said to the knight. who was still only about three inches, give or take, taller than him. not faster though. "And call me that onemore time and you're head will be off" he said in a cheery voice.

He grunted, looking like he'd resist for a moment, but the innocent trolls around him were quick to send him a demanding glare and put a hand to their hilts. Outnumbered, the lumbering beast of a troll gave in and followed the Prince.
"So close," he chuckled deeply. "Almos' got ridda 'im!" There was an air of cheer, of triumph, to the fact that he'd almost gotten KArkat offed.

Eridan muttered something in audiable. he lead the giant down, down into the dungeon."Miss? where's the keys?" he asked the Maid. "He's not guilty. it si a false accusement." he said, snatching a quick, smiling glance at Karkat.

Karkat visibly relaxed a bit, though he didn't move. The brute was grinning pure malice through the bars at him while Eridan was distracted, making the small innocent swallow nervously.
He didn't like bars being between himself and the Prince while the brute was so close by.
"Here, sir," the maid murmured, handing him the keys before stepping back. "I'm going to, uhm.." She added, explaining lamely before hurrying past him and up the stairs.

Eridan whirled around, and gave the bruteish (Wtf is spelling when your concentrating?) troll a deathstare. he unlocked the bars, and swung the door on its forbidding hinges. "OUt with ya" he said to Karkat. Eridan would literally have the giant's head if he did anything to the smaller troll. speaking of. he looked at the giant. "And in with ye."
