Third Drop ❂ Voice / Action

[mybloodisblack]

[The voice you hear over the journals is quiet, and slow.. Quiet enough that it almost sounds like he doesn't want to be heard, and slow enough that it sounds like he doen't even want an answer. But, curious enough that he wants answers.]

I have...two questions...

...How do people make friends? A-and how does someone not scare people away if they are just telling the truth?


[Once that is done and over with, Crona places his journal facing away from him. He's not sure if he wants the answers. But for the first time, he can be seen sitting in plain view of anybody out near the middle of the village. It's taken him quiet a while to stop hiding from anything that moves, and he doesn't like being completely alone anymore.

But that doesn't stop him from drawing circles on the ground with a stick. One around him, one around the journal, then other small ones because he has nothing better to do. No actual drawings come out of this, but he is pleased with himself.]

[Spock tilts his head.... Spock does not understand the context of the question.]

It is a formal address for a male... is that a problem?

[mybloodisblack]

I'm used to just Crona...

Holy Freakin' hannah! XD ~I'll be in contact soon enough~ haha

[spohkh]

Very well.... I will endeavor to adhere to your preference.

Farewell...Crona.

[And with that, Spock turns and leaves.]

[contaeoro]

Then it'd make me glad if you held onto that little bit and tried to believe us, then it might help you out even more.

[mybloodisblack]

...I can try..?

[contaeoro]

That's the spirit. I'm sure you'll be fine.

[Voice]

[asobouyo]

Then we gotta find things you like to do. 'Kay? It'll be fun.

[mybloodisblack]

Maybe.

[Voice]

[mybloodisblack]

How do I do that?

[contaeoro]

.... Well, I'd like to be your friend if you're all right with that, Crona. Can we call that a start?

[Voice]

[asobouyo]

Easy! We'll try some stuff and see how you feel about them!

Like jump-rope and hopscotch and drawing and playing tea parties!

[mybloodisblack]

...Yeah.

[Voice]

[mybloodisblack]

...What's jump-rope and hopscotch?

[So. sheltered.]

[contaeoro]

See now? You can do it too.

[mybloodisblack]

Maybe.

[contaeoro]

Try believin' in yourself, now, Crona. [It's a very responsible advice to give, you see.]

[Voice]

[asobouyo]

Fun games! Don't you play any games?

[mybloodisblack]

...I'm not good at that.

[Voice]

[mybloodisblack]

No, I never got to.

[neverplaysfair]

Because if it's in the middle, you're not understanding. You're missing something still.

[voice]

[lostinmyway]

Yes, that's right. It doesn't matter who they are--everyone can be a friend.

[Even, apparently, people who have tried to kill you. Like, say, Mithos.]

[contaeoro]

Well, you always gotta start somewhere with things you're not good at.

[mybloodisblack]

I know...but it's hard.

[voice]

[mybloodisblack]

What if they're mean?

[mybloodisblack]

But I understand most of it.
