You're better for him than I ever have been.

For...

[ wait... ]

... For who, Karkat?

Well, I'm certainly not talking about Eridan.

I'm not better for him.

[ she scoffs. ] You're probably one of the main reasons he hasn't gone mad here. It doesn't take a genius to see that.

Please, don't pin something like that to my shoulders. It's not like that at all.

What is it you think it's like, then?

We may be friends, but nothing I do is anything he couldn't accomplish without me.

Like in February?

You mean when I stabbed him in the back?

I mean when you managed to reach him while he was otherwise unreachable.

You're wrong.

In what way?

I didn't reach him.

You got a damn sight closer than anyone else.

So what? One arrow misses a rabbit by six feet; even if all the others missed by ten, the rabbit still gets away, and the archers still starve.

And you really think it was all for nothing? Do you think he'd see your actions as entirely futile?

Do you think he does yours?

That's beside the point.

No, that is exactly the point, isn't it? You're the one who wanted to use me as a measuring stick to beat yourself up with.

Even if that were true, you're still the one he stuck by, aren't you? That isn't something I even have to bother imagining, but thanks for treating me like my problems go no further than my own head.

You're welcome.

But besides that, he doesn't "stick by" me for his sake.

Right. Now you're just being willfully dense.

No, I'm actually trying to explain to you how things are, but since you'd much rather believe some false reality, where this is a competition of worthiness, you are incapable of understanding the truth.

And aside from that, the way you fish for pity and reassurance of worth is pretty pathetic, overall, and would be way more effective, I think, if you aimed your efforts at someone who actually cares about you.

If I were fishing for pity, I can assure you that I wouldn't bother soliciting it from you. I'm only bothering to explain this because you asked me to elaborate.

And you are being dense if you think he isn't in it as much for his sake as you attribute to your own. He does need you.
