Seventh Drop ❂ Voice / Action-ish

[mybloodisblack]

[Today is quite a weird day for Crona. Normally he doesn't stay out long enough to bump into people, let alone this new thing. It was cloudy today so he thought not too many people would be out, but just in case there were, Crona made it a point to stay in the woods, just barely in sight of the village.

Usually that is enough to go unnoticed, but not today. Not by the animals at least. Crona is easily freaked out by small animals, and makes a pretty loud scream every time one is near him. But that's not his biggest problem. Nope, that would be the tiny little bunny that's trailing him. And while his attention is mostly on that bunny, anyone can hear him nearby, yelling for the thing to go away, and tripping every so often because he's not looking at where he's going.

Eventually he gives in and goes into town, and hops on the edge of the fountain, and even chucking his journal at it (missing of course) but opening, though all that can be heard is 'go away' 'I haven't done anything to you' 'why are you following me' and many other things.

It's just very clear he's scared of a little bunny...]

Comments

[tomodachi]

I don't think they're all that scary. They're better than some of the other animals I know of.

action

[mybloodisblack]

[Why is he being yelled at! It's very serious to him, and the sudden yelling almost lands him in the water.]

I-I don't like them though!

[mybloodisblack]

Most animals are scary though...

action

[weaponry]

[ Before Crona can even blink after saying that, a kunai flies and pivots itself right next to the bunny. It fearfully walks a couple of steps back. A blur phases out on the rooftop before Tenten lands behind it and picks it up. ]

Hm.... this little guy just looks hungry. [ Crona!!! You starved a bunny?! ] Why don't you like bunnies?! Everyone should like bunnies!

action

[mybloodisblack]

[All Crona can do is jump at about the same time as the bunny.]

...How can you tell that? [He wouldn't do such a thing! Even if they are scary.] I just haven't liked them since I was little..

[tomodachi]

Man, is there an animal you're not afraid of?

[He's starting to get the feeling that the answer is no.]

[mybloodisblack]

...Snakes. [He lived with a mother that had snakes coming out of her arms. He's more used to that then the arrows that send him flying in the direction they are pointed.]

[tomodachi]

Huh, really?

[That's...not an answer he was expecting.] Why snakes?

[mybloodisblack]

I grew up around them.

[They were only evil some of the time.]

[tomodachi]

[Oh.] So, what, you're just more used to them then?

[mybloodisblack]

Yeah, I grew up around a lot of them.

[tomodachi]

Huh...I think there were a couple of snakes back where I'm from, but they weren't very common to see.

[He's much more used to birds than snakes.]

[mybloodisblack]

Snakes came out of my...mom. (That is so very awkward to say!!]

[tomodachi]

Huh? Seriously?

[Whoa what he's never heard of snakes coming out of people before??]

[mybloodisblack]

Yes. She's a witch.

[Because that explains everything.]

[tomodachi]

[Unless you don't know what that is.]

What's a "witch"?

[mybloodisblack]

[How the heck does explain what a witch is??? They're normal in his world...]

Someone evil, that can use magic, and...do a lot of other scary things...

She's why I have black blood.

[tomodachi]

Oh. [...] Sounds troublesome.

Action

[origami_ninja]

I see.

[She wouldn't bother doing anything except Crona is so clearly distressed by this rabbit. Moving slowly and quietly toward the rabbit, she moves swiftly only at the last second, snatching it up. She holds it in a way that it can't bite or kick her, but also won't hurt the animal.]

I'll set him or her down closer to the forest.

Action

[mybloodisblack]

[If he could look any more freaked out, he would when she picks it up.]

B-but it fallowed me out.

[mybloodisblack]

It is...

[tomodachi]

Guess I should be glad there weren't people like that I knew of back home. [Except Shin maybe but we didn't really know him.]

[mybloodisblack]

You're lucky...He's met so many of them...]

[tomodachi]

You think so?

[After a moment of thought, Crow shrugs a little at that--the only reason he hasn't met people like that is because there weren't that many other people in his world.]

action

[weaponry]

Why not? Did they kill your entire family or something? [ Tenten is like the Queen of Insensitive. ]

I can tell this rabbit is hungry because ninja study and observe their surroundings. Starving wildlife is easy to come by because they're usually thinner and their coat isn't as pristine. Hm.... [ Tenten takes out some ambiguously green and leafy substance that it starts happily chewing on. ] Usually we target starving rabbits for food if it's scarce but normally that doesn't happen.
