[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.

What a f-fascinating circumstance... and you are n-not suffering any discomfort as a result...?

[It just seems like it would be unusual for this to happen to a hominid. However, looks can be deceiving - many hominids are much different from Terran Homo sapiens sapiens, Robert has found.]

Only when Ragnarok beats me up...

[Which can't happen here, so he's a little happy about that.]

[~~This introduction is becoming very interesting.~~]

... Wh-what... why? Why would he... d-do such a thing...?

Because he doesn't like me..

[Still disbelieving:] But he... c-coexists with you... how is it p-possible...? [Moreover, why would it make any sense? It's exactly counter-intuitive to any sort of sustainable symbiosis.]

Because we're just...different. Just because he's in me doesn't mean he has to like me.

[This stops Robert cold for a moment, and he falls silent, an introspective sort of quiet that takes his gaze to the floor.

Finally:] ... I suppose. But... even s-so. Nobody deserves to... be h-harmed...

[He feels a sort of kinship with this pink-haired individual; small and slight and not very strong, and often at the mercy of a greater protector.]

...I don't think there's anything I could do about him being mean.

[Honestly, he's so used to it, being here is kind of weird. Ragnarok can't come out and do anything to him. All he can do is yell in Crona's head.]

[It's better than being hurt, but it still seems unnecessary - like it shouldn't happen.]

I... a-assume that he will not... listen to r-reason...? [Robert says it in a resigned way - most people like this won't.]

No- [Oh why don't you see for yourself...

Ragnarok, the sword, will be biting his arm. He is both bored, and annoyed, that they are talking about him, and him being out of the conversation.

And Crona's reaction is pretty big. He can slice his arm right open, but this? This is enough to get him to scream and wave his arm around.

Good answer?]

[All of a sudden Crona is in visible pain and Robert honestly doesn't know how to react for a second. Then his doctor-engrained knowledge starts to kick in, and he tries to stabilize Crona's arm, attempting to both dislodge the testy, toothed sword and prevent Crona doing further damage to his skin from the sword's jaws (?).

It's possible neither of these things work, but either way Robert isn't going to take this well.]

[Sadly stoping Crona from movingis much harder than one might think. He's much stronger than he looks.

Eventually though he shakes the sword lose, and just holds where he was bitten with his other hand. It suddenly has become unimportant. But all of his attention is on the sword. And a bit on Robert. (He's only a big embarrassed...)

Ragnarok, if you wanted to say something, just ask! It's not nice to do that in front of other people.
