The first month was pretty interesting. Most of it was Eridan having Karkat stand up for him. On the last day of the month, Eridan took a chance and asked Karkat about all the standing up for him. Of course, they didn't know each other from middle school, but maybe elementary school. Karkat was silent for a bit before answering truthfully. The answer was surprising to Eridan, never thought that anyone wanted to spend time with him.
"Ah, Karbro, did you get a new friend?" asks Gamzee, being as high as usual. Eridan knew him, he was like the one person who would talk to him during middle school.
"Shut up Gamzee!" says Karkat, sitting down at their lunch table. Eridan sits down next to Karkat, and Gamzee stares at him. "No staring!" Karkat glares at Gamzee, and he turns to look at the shorter one.
"Ah bro, don't get all up tight," says Gamzee, resting his head on his arms.
"Gamzee, you always tell me that," claims Karkat, and Eridan watches the two bicker back and forth.
