Jade hides a giggle with her hand at the guy’s— Erik’s funny gentlemanly gesture. He sure is weird! Still, there’s a nice Space-y camaraderie thing that Jade would like to think is going on, and it’s kind of cool to talk to someone who might know as much about SBURB as she does who isn't a rude troll. She can hardly wait for him to meet Karkat and Gamzee!
Unexpectedly, there is a rather startling crashing noise that causes her to start and her ears to flatten down dramatically against the top of her god-tier hood. Eyes wide and mouth gaping open a ways, the Witch of Space turns to watch as the rusty murderhobo that Adam is fighting punches into the space that the black-haired boy was just occupying previously. Luckily,— or maybe just thankfully, Adam isn’t a Light player!— the boy in red pajamas with a long windsock hood manages to dodge. Jade exhales a small sigh of relief out through her nose.
Between her memo and this new friend sitting beside her, Jade hardly has enough attention to spare for the dangerous feats taking place in the arena. Still, she peers over at a particularly sudden movement through the surging red filter of her Spectagoggles every once in a while. She doesn’t really like watching this whole super violent bloodbath thing happen, although the BWNN is super rad.
Picking idly at the edge of her flashy coat with a downward turn to her lips as Erik is talking, occasionally glancing up to offer a slight smile or grin, the slightly overcast clouds and warm bodies around them are making her outfit uncomfortably prickly and hot. She really ought to change into something less suited for an icy tundra later, hopefully before she has been turned into a sticky and gross puddle.
She can’t help but wonder if Erik’s session turned out any better than her own, though; if he was able to breed a universe frog, stoke the forge and create an entirely new universe to preside over. That would kind of stink, if he were happy and with all of his friends when he was dumped in this strange and confusing place! At least Jade could have actually appreciated a welcome distraction from her lonesomeness while on her way to a new session.
Other than what Jade would like to know about him, her new friend is goofy— and he speaks so nicely, too! Even when he gets a little weird when watching the Colosseum sessions taking place, and expresses some dislike for trolls, he has something neat to say. The answer he gives to her questioning about his relations to Adam, though… it doesn’t quite sit right with her. Are they friends or are they not? What a joker!
As she posts various funny animated images on one of her message boards, Jade notices that Erik is messaging her back! Cool! Although, it is kind of silly for them to be speaking over the internet while sitting literally right next to each other. Jade still giggles loudly after reading over each post, fiddling with her Spectagoggles and candy red Lunchmuffs in order to provide optimal .GIF content. Soon enough, however, she speaks up for real.
“So, Erik, I’d love to hear about what you’ve learned about the Omniverse! Have you been here very long? Karkat and I were actually going to try and ask around if anyone knows of a way to leave, but as far as I know that should be as good as impossible! And some of the only helpful people in my memo want me to join a faction or something, which I'm sorta leery of, to be honest!” She mopes a little, despondently tapping her slippers lightly against the underside of her seat. "Everything's just so difficult, all the time."
