Ah, alright. It was much more amusing when he went off on his tangents when it was on purpose, on Eric’s part, rather than an angry rant meant to cut into him. Eric hoped that the curse didn’t somehow help communicate his thoughts. He didn’t want this angry pink thief to know how fucking amused he suddenly was. The guy really was committed to the whole hermit lifestyle if the thought of having someone nearby for only a season was enough to set him off like this. Just what was so awful, what could happen, what had happened to him before to make him react like this? To live like this?
Suddenly it wasn’t as funny.
Eric heaved out a sigh. “I’m sorry for upsetting you. Listen. I know that you don’t want to help me, you’ve made that very clear. You’re right that you don’t owe me anything. I’m sorry for making mistakes, I didn’t know any better. I’m out here to try and learn better, that’s the whole reason I left home! I’m asking for help because that’s how I was raised, to ask for help when I fuck up. It’s never been a problem before.” He hummed in contemplation, wondering how this would go in the stories, and then wondering how that would translate to real life. All stories start with a grain of the truth that gets heaped over with a steaming load of bullshit, as granny would say. He may have underestimated how much bullshit actually went into them, if this whole entire fucking day was anything to go off of. “What I really need is an evil rich man to steal from. That’s supposed to be alright.”
You know, once he got used to all of the mean comments and nasty words the thief said, waiting to see what his reactions to things were became a lot more interesting. Actually, that reminded him. “My name is Eric, if you wanted to put a name to the insults.”
