[ For a long time he does nothing. And honestly, he's probably been doing a lot of nothing for a while, even before Poseidon came. Eventually though he shifts into his natural form and slithers to what remains of the entrance.
He's quiet there too... but eventually his hands ball into tight fists. ]
Poseidon feels his chest grow tight as he moves a bit closer, keeping himself hidden by a cluster of rocks at a respectful distance. He's unsure what Amphitrite plans on doing...though he is certain that the danger of the volcanic god is passed.]
[ Amphitrite continues on, punching the rock a bit more here and there. ]
I hate you! I hate you so much! "Ohhh, Goddess you are so beautiful, I need you!" "That fire in your eyes is so lovely I must make it mine!" "I will not let anyone have you, you belong to me!" FUCK YOU! JUST FUCK YOU! I am NOT some kind of... object for you to own and take your... MOMMY ISSUES out on and I NEVER WAS!!
The time that I knew you was hell! Every second I ever had to listen to you was excruciating and terrible! What the hell did half of that even mean?! Did you ever even listen to yourself?! Was I supposed to find any of that attractive?!
[ His snake tail turns to legs but just so he can kick the entrance a couple of times ]
And then as if it was not enough to torment me... you slaughter my people and threaten my children...! All whom did nothing to you! And you have the gall to then try and kill the love of my life! Nothing will ever ease my burning hatred for you! Not even millennia! NOTHING!! You despicable, worthless, disgustingly vile... creep!
[ He falls to knees after all that and settles a little finally, panting for breath after all that yelling. But he has one more thing yet to get off his chest and he does so in a much softer tone. ]
My only regret is having not been there to see you die... to do you in myself...
[ And then he's quiet, letting his words hang in the air as he calms back down. ]
[Poseidon remains quiet out of respect for Amphitrite's feelings, letting him express all of the anger, hurt, and frustration that the late god had put him through over the past few decades. It's hard to see him so upset...especially knowing on an intimate level just how badly he'd been harassed. Abused. People lost their lives over this, and that wasn't something you could take back. Adranus didn't care for humans at all...but Amphitrite obviously did, and had been crushed by it. Even Poseidon, someone who had only recently opened up to the idea of humans, could see how heartless a thing it was.
And then, to threaten his children...the only thing he had left. It was short of despicable.
His grip tightens on his trident, and he takes a breath to calm his own distant anger rising to the surface for a bit. Mostly, though, he just feels sad. If he could do it all over again, he would have afforded Amphitrite the opportunity to take some much needed revenge. But that hadn't been an option, not when it meant putting the lesser goddess into some serious danger.
Eventually, once he thinks Amphitrite is through, he steps out into the open and approaches quietly, calling out so as not to startle him.]
[ The thing is... Amphitrite had been aware Poseidon was there. At some point he realized the presence of someone watching, and could only deduce it was his husband to be. So it doesn't startle him when he calls his name.
He stays silent for a while still before speaking. ]
...I am sorry, Poseidon. I started checking up on the whole island and lost track of time... then found myself here.
[Poseidon blinks, watching as the now-little snake slithers his way up around his neck and settles there. It tickles, but in a good way.]
Ah...of course it will be. Just make sure you hold on tightly, okay?
[He lifts a hand to pat his tail before walking down the beach back to the shoreline so he can step back into the water, change back into having his tail so he can swim back home faster.
By the time he makes it there with Amphitrite, it's rather late. Though he doesn't need to, he stops by their son's room, checking in on them. They're all asleep in a row inside a clam shell half, as they do every night.]
They kept asking where you were. They seem to expect a good night from you now as much as they always do from me.
[YOU USELESS GAY don't worry he'll just keep that in mind for later-
But once he's sure he's not looking, Poseidon reaches for that satchel and carefully pours out the seashells that Amphitrite picked out. He sorts them both by size and color, keeping the bigger ones out by themselves. Even with his eyes closed, the goddess will probably be able to see a faint blue light form for a few minutes as Poseidon works on putting something together with those shells...but eventually he's through, and he moves back a little to admire his work.]
Okay. You can look.
[When the goddess opens his eyes, he will see exactly what he'd wanted laying on that bed, yet somehow it's something much more than that. It's a toga similar to the one he'd worn before, except...it's not that white fabric Poseidon picked up at all. It's covered with colors, from red to green to yellow and everything else inbetween...making up a gradated rainbow from the bottom upwards. His medal from his parents sits on one shoulder, both as an accent and to keep the sleeve together.
The shells that Amphitrite picked out had been made into a beautiful necklace to match the crown he now always wore. The shells themselves seem to almost sparkle and shine when looked at from different angles. They've clearly been imbued with a spell as well, probably something for general protection.]
[ Amphitrite opens his eyes and... what he sees makes him gasp.
All the colours... and the necklace... it's all breath taking. He uncoils himself from around Poseidon's neck and swims towards the toga, mesmerized by it. ]
Oh love, it...
It is gorgeous. You have out done yourself...! A-Are these colours... inspired by our sons...?
[ HE IS OVERCOME WITH EMOTION THIS IS SO PRETTY?? IT'S SO PRETTY AND IT'S FOR HIM??? MADE SPECIALLY FOR HIM?? ]
I got inspired, seeing you with them. I thought it would only be fitting for you to wear their colors. It is thanks to you they are here at all, Amphitrite.
[He looks on at the clothing, and then gestures to it with a nod of his head.]
I think you will find it suits you better than anything else.
[With his expression softening, the sea king swims back to the goddess’ side, pressing a gentle kiss to his cheek where the tears had started to try and track down it.]
I am very glad. My only desire is for you to be happy, whether it be with where you are living, or what you are wearing. ...and it does not hurt to know you will wear it nicely, either.

Can you still hear me in there? Even though you are gone from this world? Does your spirit still linger? I hope you still can...
[ He sighs... ]
no subject
Because maybe for once you will actually listen to me, you worthless piece of shit fuckboy god!!
[ aH,,, ]
no subject
UH
Poseidon's eyes widen a little when he sees Amphitrite punch the rock, even moreso when he starts to openly curse at Adranus' resting place.
...and yet he continues to not interrupt him. He feels like he needs this.]

It is alright. There is no need to apologize.
[He doesn't blame him for coming, honestly. Especially not after everything.]
Are...you alright?
no subject
I will be. Do not worry. I just... had a lot to get off my chest.
[ He goes to stand ]
I am sorry you had to see that.
no subject
Non non! It was-
[hot]
You- you needed that.
no subject
Yes... Yes, I suppose I did...
[ He then leans his whole body against the other, resting his head on his shoulder, face buried in the nook of his neck ]
I think... I need to go home now too...
[ His new home. ]
no subject
We should both be getting home. I have something special waiting for you when we get there, anyway.
no subject
[ He draws one of his hands back but only to push a small satchel into Poseidon's. It feels full of shells. ]
Would you mind carrying this on the way back?
no subject
[He takes the satchel in his hands, weighing it curiously.]
These will be perfect. Now come, let us go back home before it gets too dark.
no subject
[ And at that he turns back into a snake, a medium sized one and slithers around up and around Poseidon's neck and shoulders, making himself comfy ]
Will it be okay if I stayed right here?
no subject
Ah...of course it will be. Just make sure you hold on tightly, okay?

[ a pause ]
Good night boys.
no subject
It is alright. There will be plenty of time for more goodnights tomorrow.
[He sweeps into the other room, past the coral lined caverns until he comes up on the place they sleep at the far end of the room.
He quickly lifts a finger to cover Amphitrite's eyes.]
I want you to close your eyes for a moment, okay?
no subject

[ Keeping them closed ]
