Alex walks over to the dining room. His grandpa is nowhere to be seen. Typical him! His mobile lets out a soft tune. He looks down at it. He smiles as he sees who pestered him. But now is not the time to answer him is there? He starts climbing the stairs to the loft. It never ceases to amaze him that they have such a airy home even if it's in the middle of a huge fucking city. He guess grandpa Emil fixed their apartment himself. Shit that guy is handy. Alex finally picks up his phone to look at the message.

LA: Hey, are you ready for the big revealing? Who or even what is it that's been pestering you all over? I know you're friends with my soulbound and I kind of wonder if she hasn't said anything about our species yet. I guess we don't have really good reputation in human culture, but we're nothing like that. Wait, that's not my thing to say. You decide on your own.
MM: Omg... Why do you have to write so much?
MM: Yes I am well aware that TS and you are dating and stuff but you two being other species is just absurd.
LA: We are not dating.
LA: You being aliens is even more absurd! You look so soft and squishy while you have this amazing ability to fantasies on a grater basis than us! I mean it's nothing wrong with being squishy and soft, but you just look so vulnerable. Like one punch will knock your lights out. And your souls are so weak. But still you know the ways of words.
MM: Okay that's it, you're a fucking elf!
LA: What? No, I'm a demon!
MM: Aww hell no! I can't imagine you with big horns and devil tail. You're too kind to be a demon.
LA: But I am the prince of Gehenna whatever you like it or not.
MM: Let me guess, your name is not Eric but Lucifer IXV Satan!?
LA: No, my name's Orion Pallas. At least you tried kid...
MM: Omg, you're not serious are you? You're weird to begin with but this takes it all! This has to be one of your complicated jokes nobody gets! I can't believe TS bothers being with you! I will go bat shit insane because of you one day!
LA: It's bothersome when you don't mean it, prince.
MM: GRHHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAeabnlvsbdklgqeuirhygfhewgbyoihefvidlhog9iewrfbneldskafkqhwefdlkshafoewuhfiwehuH

Alex growls in frustration. He straightens in his chair, takes a deep breath. He thinks back at his dream. The clouds of Skaia didn't show him anything last night. It usually doesn't bother him but this time it seems weird. When something important happens they usually shuts up for a time. His chat window blinks. He does not intend to answer however. Fuck that snotty guy! An unknown chat handle is trying to reach him. Alex lifts a eyebrow in thought. Who the ever loving fuck would even use ectoBiologist as a chat handlename. That's just to ridiculous.
However Alex decides to answer.
-ectoBiologist [EB] began pestering manicMonkey [MM]-
EB: ehm, hi i guess.
MM: Who the hell are you?
EB: aww come on! dont be as grumpy as karkat!
MM: who's this karkat who rivals my grump?
EB: he's really nice when you got to know him.
MM: Whateves
EB: so do you need some game advice?
MM: Nah, you should talk to globalSunflower, she's more into this than me.
EB: uhm, i dont want to talk to her... she seems to be really scary
MM: Nah, just dumbstruck and in love with fictional characters. It's a new one all the time! Right now it's some Jonny egderp or something...
EB: oh... that's the reasons i don't want to get involved with her. she's madly in love with this fictional me! omg this is even more confusing than time traveling!. btw the names john egbert.
MM: oh my fucking god! You're the worst troll I've ever met! don't you even dare try to make me believe in fictional character right after i got confronted by a pretend demon that tried to drag a friend of mine into the shit.
MM: I've had enough of this shit already!

Alex turns his phone off. He has had enough of weird messages right now. He walks down the stairs. Grandpa Emil sits on the couch, feet placed a top of the coffee table, a pipe is placed gently in his mouth. He gives Alex a short nod when the teen walks past him. Emil grabs a hold of Alex sleeve.
"Hey, I been meaning to tell you this for a while" the elder says. Alex looks at him in wonder. "come, sit down it's sort of a long story" Emil pats the empty space besides him. Alex nods shortly and sits down. "have you ever wondered why your mother and father never was in the picture?"
"didn't you say they died in a accident?" Alex asks. Emil shakes his head.
"I know I said that, and I'm sorry I lied to you about that. The truth is, they are still very much alive but I'm not sure you want to meet them. They set out on a quest. A foolish quest if you ask me!" Emil pauses. "they abounded you here with me"
"Why haven't you told me?"
"I thought you would set out to try to find them like any smartass movie star hero"
"Are you mocking me?" Alex quirks his eyebrows. The elder lets out a mocking laugh.
"Hell yeah I am!"
"Gosh I hate you some times!"
"Oh really now? Be grateful, my time with you as a grandson has been awful" The teen elbow tackles the older. They roll over, Alex on top of the not that old man. They laugh at the situation. "Damn I will always love you kid!"
"And I you grandpa"
The subject of the young mans parents are forgotten for the moment.
