[musclebeast]

[His brows furrow, taken aback slightly.]

With you?

[fintastic]

No, with my lusus!

[ She laughs are her own completely unfunny joke. ]

Of course with me.

[musclebeast]

With your lusus would be impossible.

-right. [Swallows, his brows furrowing.]

As you wish...

[fintastic]

[ SIGH. She really should know better than to try, but she just can't give up! ]

Are you saying that because you want to dance with me, or because you think you have to say it?

[musclebeast]

For someone of my caste to wish to dance with you would be blasphemous. I only want what you do, of course. But no, I do not mind dancing with you-

[Rolls a shoulder slightly.] I enjoy dancing.

[fintastic]

How about a compromise. If you come in later, we can dance! And if you don't, then we can dance some other time. How does that sound?

[musclebeast]

But you are here now, that would be rather inefficient.

[fintastic]

But then I wouldn't be making you go anywhere you didn't want to go.

[musclebeast]

You can't do that.

[fintastic]

Why not?

[musclebeast]

I cannot be against anywhere you would want to send me. I wish to serve you, you are the Princess.

[fintastic]

Equius, what do I do so that you'll treat me like an equal?

[musclebeast]

You are not an equal. You shouldn't be treated as one.

[fintastic]

Maybe the Feferi from your timeline is a princess, but I'm not! Not anymore.

[musclebeast]

Your blood colour is undeniable.

[fintastic]

My blood color doesn't mean anything on Earth.

[musclebeast]

[He let's out a slightly exasperated sigh, trying not to be too obvious with his disappointment.]

It means a great deal to me, our kind, and our culture, your highness.

[fintastic]

And it means a lot to me for you to be your own troll, and make your own decisions, regardless of whether you think it will make me mad! [ A pause, before she rethinks that. ] No, regardless of whether you think it will make the future Empress mad.

[musclebeast]

I am my own troll. I have decided to continue my place, as I should, as I was taught. It's my decision to serve. [Though he's starting to get a little frustrated now.]

[fintastic]

Then you can go serve Eridan, because I do not want or need any servants.

[musclebeast]

Eridan doesn't hold the most esteemed position of our kind so the tradition of a rivalry between our types can be better upheld. Though if the time comes where- I am listen to him as a superior, I will. I apologize if my service doesn't please you, Princess. But if that is the deciding note on my presence here, I can take my exit.

[fintastic]

No. I'll go. I want to go back to the party, anyway, but maybe I will see you later.

[ Yeah that's her cue to abscond. ]

[musclebeast]

[And he'll just watch her. He's a mix of confused and disappointed. The latter at himself as well as her. He doesn't quite understand what he did wrong, but so is the life of a troll that's been taught his whole life to be the way he is.]
