mybloodisblack | Eighth Drop ❂ Video / Action

[Today Crona is trying to be normal, and take the advice of a few people. And it looks like he's going to say something for the first few moments....but then he takes a deep breath, and just stares at the book, not even realizing that the video function is on. He's really trying hard to say what he means...He does that a few more times, with his eyes going everywhere, until he takes one last smal breath before he starts talking pretty fast.]

I was told that a lot of people have hobbies here...And I was wondering if...if I could learn some. Any ones would be nice.

[And it cuts off rather quickly. He's never had to ask people something like that, and he doesn't have any way to deal with it.

Though a little later when he's not so freaked out when people start talking to him, he's finally doing the last thing on his list...Taking out Ragnarok at the edge of the village. Crona doesn't want to go inside, so it is really going to b e the best Ragnarok will get.

Crona can be found there, holding a long sword in an awkward mannor. Probably in a position that would leave cuts on anybody else. He lets the sword yell and complain about everything, which is much less painful than in his head, and anybody that approaches crona will be on high alert, and shushing the sword so everything looks...relatively normal...or partly. The sword does have a large mouth on it....

This is Crona's normal day.

I'm sorry...I just theought people knew a few...

[He sounds pitiful.]

What can you do?

[There is going to be a very long pause...]

...Does swordfighting count..?

I've heard of fencing and swordplay as hobbies before. [She knows two swordsmen personally, in fact. It isn't a hobby for them.]

Then I guess I have that... [But he's always had it, so it's more like a job for him.]

Well you don't sound very enthusiastic about it.

It's not fun...And my sword is very mean.

Most people make hobbies out of things they enjoy.

Like what kind of things??

[For crying out loud, what is this boy's name, Curiosity or someth-

Oh. Oh no. What if it was?]

Don't you have anything you like at all?

...Not really...

[The resemblance is uncanny and Rue might scoff if she wasn't so concerned about other things.]

Then try a few things and see.

That's why I'm asking...I don't know what to do.

[Whether or not there are any lingering bits of a heart around, Rue has practice dealing with people who operate this way, and right about now it kicks in.]

Go to the library and get a book about hobbies. Do you know where the library is? [Do you know what the library is?]

Yes, I've been there a few times.

Some people consider reading as a hobby. [Stories. She keeps a fair distance away from those.] Regardless, you should be able to find something there to pursue.

There's so many kinds of books there though... [He's never had to deal with so many books without looking for one specifically.]

[A sigh. This obviously requires a different touch.]

Just go there. All right?

[Well now he sounds scared of her...]

O-okay..

[Not an uncommon state of affairs.

Rue is going to meet him outside the library.]

[It happens easier with Crona.

Crona will be at the library when she arrives. Standing very awkwardly by the door, staring straight at the ground.]

[He is the only person standing there looking absurd, but it will be safer to ask.]

Are you the boy looking for a hobby?

[And he almost jumps when he hears her talking to him. Some warning please??]

Yeah...

Then come inside.

[On the off chance that he is as unresponsive as Mytho, she will reach for his wrist to take him inside.]

...Okay.[He's actually quite used to people pulling him by his wrist to take him places, so she should have no problem do that.]
