[He couldn't even think of getting up right now and walking away if he tried. Eridan knew that in his state right now he would have probably just got up and tried to make his way out because of how embarrassed he was, and would have probably ended up falling more than actually making it out. He leans in slightly, really grateful for the hug right now, and the soothing motions against his back. He wants to reach his arms out and wrap them around her, but he stops himself by just wrapping them more around his legs. ]

For the same god damned reason I feel so territorial about some people, includin' you. [He sighs. Because wow does he realize he feels that way around certain people that are simply just his friends, not even including some of his family members.]

I know that, and I want to say that you wouldn't hurt me, but hahaha I can't ewen keep myself from gettin' hurt. [He shakes his head still clutching onto his legs.] I mean. Really though, if we're bein' honest and all, I... I keep on forgettin' you're ewen a wampire, because you're still yourself to me. You're still my best friend. I just. I crossed way too many lines, I shouldn't hawe started talkin' like that, I shoulda left that first compliment as it was, and I sure as hell shouldn't hawe kissed you.

[He pauses, closing his eyes. Augh he was just woozy from this entire headrush and... God his head was pounding now. ] I probably just reek of alcohol right now, don't I?
