Tortured or worse. So, that's what the problem was. Someone must have managed to capture Sollux, did something to him, something he couldn't stop without his psionics and likely wound his pride more than his actual body. It makes sense how he tried to run, how he'd want to keep something like that to himself. Honestly, if the same had happened to Eridan, he likely would be just on the violent defensive about it. It's hard to trust even your friends in a world like the one they grew up in, Kar's paranoia was enough of a show of that, much less trust someone who's gone out of their way to give you as much shit as possible the entire time you've known each other.
It's with an annoyed snort he finally releases his hold on the bastard's shirt, taking just a few moments pleasure in a small realization he's taller than the other troll, far too pleased by something so minuscule, but quickly pushes that to the back of his mind as possible fuel for later.
For now, he keeps his annoyance on a more serious topic. "There, wwas that so fuckin' hard? If there's anythin' else that comes up like that again, I say wwe declare a temporary truce, wwhat do you say, Sol? The last fuckin' place I wwas in forced us to wwork together, but lookin' like here they'we got the opposite in mind an' fuck that. Anyone's stronger if they'we got someone wwatchin' their back rather than tryin' to do all a this bullshit they expect from us alone.
I still fuckin' hate you, don't get me wwrong, just as fuckin' platonically as otherwwise, but if there's somethin' here that ewen us trolls can't handle, it'd be dowwn right fuckin' retarded to try an' take things such as this alone."
To think, him, a seadweller, being forced to cooperate and possibly even team up with this insufferable prick of a lowblood. But, desperate times call for desperate measures. And maybe if he shows he can play nice to Sollux, if Signless, Karkat or Feferi happens to show up, maybe this could put them in their good graces so he won't have to try so hard to fight with them over the whole murder incidents. It'd certainly make his life a hell of a lot easier in the long run, that's for damn sure.
