[Murdoc glances up from his work and gives Eridan a half smile as he enters the room. Something seems....different, but he can't put his finger on it. To be fair, he's a little worried about Eridan right now, so he's distracted.]
[He wasn't actually putting too much into him noticing that, especially since he wasn't here to talk about his improving speech. Giving a small nod, the boy moves from the door and over to his usual seat, sliding down since he sort of didn't want to even be here. Out of nowhere, he suddenly speaks.]
[Murdoc had almost been expecting that, but it catches him a little off guard. He widens his eyes before schooling himself into a neutral expression, nodding in response.]
I think... I don't know. I think it is because you didn't tell me enough but at the same time you just told me... these things. I just, you know, I thought that you would tell me this. I thought that you wouldn't hawe to keep this from me since it's... kind of an important thing.
[And he's sliding down in his seat a bit more. Hn.]
What in particular? The date of the weddin' or the...other thing? Either way I suppose it's because I never know what you want to know, lad. I didn't want you to get tetchy on me because I shared too much.
No, I'll forgiwe you not tellin' me the date up front if you at least.. you know, told me when you were datin' someone else. It's not like I can't keep a secret or anythin' like that.
I just... it's hard to judge what I want because most of the time whenewer I get information it's usually somethin' I don't want to hear.
[He lifts a hand up to slip them under his glasses, rubbing idly.]
It hasn't been goin' on for long. If that helps. I hardly know what it is myself, but I felt you were entitled to know. Seein' as how I've kept so much from you as it is.
I'd like the believe that's because nobody withholds good news from you. Everybody has rough patches, Eridan. We'll pull through it, I promise. And if it doesn't get better you can give me a good, hard kick.
Well, thanks. I'm glad to know that you're tellin' me things now.
[That. That gets a small scoff right there.] Don't act like I don't know that, I know that and it infuriates me. I don't ewer ask to know ewerythin', in fact, I know I'll newer know ewerythin', but at the wery least you know it's nice to say that I know this bit of good news and not all of the less fortunate things that I continue to keep on gettin'.
[But there is a pause, he's not quite finished.] ... You better hold that promise.

moves from the door and over to his usual seat, sliding down since he sort of didn't want to even be here. Out of nowhere, he suddenly speaks.]
..... I hawe no idea how to take this.
[action]
Why don't you start by tellin' me how you feel?
[action]
Confused. Annoyed. Somethin' of that nature, it's hard to pin-point exactly.
