[Karkat hardly looks the most relaxed, either. He may be a fairy godmother this week, but his base is still troll, and the instincts and cultural cues drilled into him by living on a planet like Alternia have not gone anywhere. And for all violence is no longer the first solution - he's grown almost peaceful in a way - he knows better than to let himself look weak in front of a threat.]
[Before he can actually make much of a retort, though, he hears the slither of a long snake body. His gaze shifts sideways, and--yes, it's Eridan, like he thought it might be. His posture eases and he edges back, settling, or appearing to.]
Not even close. She's the one who came bothering me. Hopeless case so I'm not even going to try with her. And I'm not putting you in a dress, either. You don't even want to go to the ball, do you? There's no point in it.
[He turns to Yuno again.]
How about you go see to your earth boyfriend. I think we're done here.
