Growing up you always admired you ancestor. And growing up you always wanted to be like him. A fearsome pirate. The tales of your ancestor amazed you. You envied everything about him. Being just like him was your dream. It was also expected of you.
You're royalty. You were raised and taught how to act like one. It was… the only thing you were taught. You now come to realize that.
You were not taught how to care for yourself, but to care only about yourself. You were not taught how to love, or how to handle the emotions of others. Back then those little things did not matter to you. But gog, right now you wish it did.
Your first mistake was losing hope. Prince of Hope? You didn't deserve such a title. Your second mistake was challenging Sol. You didn't just hurt him.
Fef… poor Fef. She didn't even realize he was only K.O.'D. You knew she liked him. Him. Not you. Seeing how she got so upset over him bothered you. Seeing how she was about to take your life, when you almost took his bothered you even more. You... killed her. You selfish arrogant bastard you killed her!
And at that time your ashamed to say you didn't care. At that time you had no heart.
I'm not sure what to call this but I wrote it anyways. I don't hate Eridan, I just feel this is what he would probably tell himself.
