"Okay... But next time, I'll be here firster and then I'll wait for you to come and it'll be okay." He grinned a little sheepishly, suddenly aware that he was blabbering on nervously. He wasn't really sure which trolls she was talking about, since he only really knew Karkat and Vriska and possibly Terezi and possibly even more possibly Gamzee and Tavros, but it was really unlikely that any of them would be on the ship. He hoped that Karkat was, though, since he was really smart and angry. And Vriska, because they had been talking.

"I hope it was okay to leave you with Dave and you didn't get all caught up in possibly marrying him or anything. It must've been really awkward!" As if he wasn't making it even more awkward. But he didn't seem to notice, beaming on her once again.
