They walk together in awkward silence for a hour. Karkat looks at him, slightly red "SO... A GRUB?" Sollux sighs and nods "yeth KK a grub. Jeguth no one will leave me alone about it. Now you all thuddenly want two be fucking fluthed for me." Karkat winces "WELL, IT DOES SOMEWHAT CHANGE THINGS.". Sollux rolls his eyes "thut up you juth want two be the other parent.". Karkat is about to protest but then stops and sighs.
Sollux stops and frowns, looking at the scenery " I hate the othean." Karkat looks at him "BECAUSE YOU CAN'T SWIM?" "I can thwim perfectly fine, I juth chooth not two.""WELL WE'RE NOT GOING IN THE WATER SO IT'S FINE.". And they continue to walk on the port. Then Sollux steps in a puddle and slips, landing in the water with a splash. Karkat looks over panicked and Sollux glares at him "thave me you prick!" Then goes under the water, flailing pathetically. Before Karkat can jump in arms close around Sollux and pull him up. He coughs up water and breaths heavily "thith ith why I hate the beach KK!" And glares at him then turns to see who save him. Feferi smiles "Hey Sollux, are you alright?" He nods And carries him to the shore with ease. Karkat runs over to them "ARE YOU OKAY?" and Sollux glares at him, drenched in water "yeth... no thankth two you.". Karkat frowns "I DIDN'T KNOW YOU'D FALL IN." Sollux begins to shiver, clothing soaked in water "Fuck you. juth fuck you." . Feferi looks at him worriedly "he's getting cold, we should take him inside." "MY HIVE IS TO FAR, WHAT ABOUT YOURS?" "it's underwater, remember? I don't think he's up for that right now." Then she pauses "the closest hive is-" and Karkat grimaces "ERIDAN'S.". Sollux looks up "What? Fuck no we're not going two hith hive. No way." Then he starts shivering again. "We have to, you can't get sick." "IT'S FOR THE BEST." And Sollux squirms, trying to get out of Feferi's arms "Nope. Nope. I'm good. I won't get thick, ith fine.". Feferi shakes her head "as much as you don't like it we have to." And they start walking in the direction of the shipwreck like hive.

Feferi knocks at the door "Hey Eridan are you there? Hello!". He answers "Fef?" Then stops and sees everyone, surprised. He notices Sollux in Feferi's arms and smirks "Hey Sol, finally decided to come crawwlin back to me?". Feferi pushes past him, annoyed "Eridan shut up. He fell in the water and your hive was closest." And Karkat follows. Eridan glares at her "wwell come right in." And closes the door.
Sollux sits on the ground, arms crossed in and wrapped in a blanket "can we go now?" "NO YOUR CLOTHES ARE DRENCHED STILL." And Feferi nods in agreement. Then Eridan walks over with a bundle of clothes "wwell I can change that." And holds them out to Sollux. He looks at them then turns around, ignoring him "I'd rather freeze two death." "Come on Sol just take them." "Fuck no.". "Solllllll." And Karkat growls, angrily "EVEN THOUGH THE IDEA IS REPULSIVE YOU SHOULD." "What ith wrong with you KK. No!" "IT WOULD GET YOU OUT OF HERE ALOT FASTER THEN WAITING FOR YOUR CLOTHES TO DRY. BESIDES YOU CAN STILL GET SICK BY WEARING THOSE WET CLOTHES." "He's right.". Sollux turns around and glares at Eridan, then grabs the clothes angrily.
He walks out of the bathroom wearing the long-sleeved Aquarius shirt and striped pants. he growls "thith ith tho thupid. I look ridiculouth. I want two go two my hive now." And pulls at the clothing, a little long on him. Eridan smirks "you don't look half bad wwhen you're not dressed like a commoner." Sollux gives him the finger and glares at the outfit "how do you wear thith retarded outfit everyday fithdick?". Karkat looks at him "THAT'S SOMETHING I NEVER WANT TO SEE AGAIN." And Feferi nods. Sollux glares at them, then starts to walk away "I'm going." But Eridan gets in front of him "wwait, you just got here. You should wwarm up more." "No I don't want two be here any longer than thith." "Wwell I'm not letin you leavve unless I can come". Sollux glares at him and reaches out to push him but Eridan grabs his hands "Or you could stay until tomorrow.".
Karkat grabs Sollux's hands away and glares at him "NO. ARADIA IS PROBABLY WONDERING WHERE HE IS BY NOW.". Eridan glares at him and Sollux nods "yeth. I'm going back now. I'll thend you the clotheth back if I don't burn them." And pushes past him. Karkat and Feferi follow and they walk towards the door and Eridan looks at them "wwait I'm comin to!" And follows after. Sollux swings around and glares at him "ith bad enough I have two wear theth thupid clotheth. I am not going two deal with you right now." Then he opens the door and walks out annoyed, the others behind him. Eridan stands at the door "you'd better not ruin my clothes you damn lowwblood! And take better care of our wwriggler for cod's sake... don't get yourself killed..." he watches him walk away "be careful." Then looks down and sighs.

Sollux walks into his hive angrily "finally I can get out of thith.". Aradia stands up and hugs him "Sollux there you are! I was looking everywhere for you." Then she stops and looks at him "what are you wearing?". Sollux sighs" long thory thort I fell in water thankth two KK and FF thaved me and we had two go two fithdick'th hive.". She laughs "that sounds like you had a great adventure." He rolls his eyes "yeth it wath freaking wonderful.". "well let's get you out of those clothes." He nods and smiles "thoundth good.".
