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.]

You must understand... I too have a difficulty in 'friendships' and do not fully comprehend the method in which one goes about this process.

However, you are an interesting individual, and it is my desire to converse further with you. This I am sure will lead to a form of relational understanding that some could identify as 'friendship'... Though the full comprehension still eludes me...[Spock voice drifts off as he considers 'friendship...

[mybloodisblack]

I'm...interesting? [That's what he got out of all that, yes. He's never been called that before.]

[perplexme]

Well...there's that girl who wanted to start the art club. And my friend and I like to read and solve mysteries...and there's the school, and Sanji was looking for people to help with his restaurant. There's a bunch of things you can try.

[voice]

[ribbonbon]

A few months...Yeah, I don't think I had many friends until I'd been here for a couple months either. Oh, But I'm sure you'll make lots of friends in no time, especially with people helping you out!

Oh! Um! W-We can be friends, too, if you want! Um, you can call me Pils!

[neverplaysfair]

So pick one! That solves your problem.

voice

[mybloodisblack]

That's a lot...

[voice]

[mybloodisblack]

Is it normal for people to say they'll just be your friend? That's happened a few times. [And it's very odd to him.]

...My name is Crona.

[mybloodisblack]

What if I pick the wrong one?

[neverplaysfair]

It'll be a learning experience.

voice

[perplexme]

But I think that's a good thing. That way if something doesn't work, you still have something else to try.

voice

[mybloodisblack]

...How do I start any though?

[mybloodisblack]

A bad one...

[voice]

[ribbonbon]

[It really isn't, but she knows first hand that it's possible. Besides, she doesn't want him to feel like anyone is pitying him or something.]

It's not all that common, but it totally happens! I mean, it can take a while for most people, but some people just like to make lots of friends! So sometimes they just ask!

Crona...Huh. That's kind of a cool name...

[voice]

[mybloodisblack]

So it's just sort of normal... [Pity never came to his mind. Just confusion.]

Cool..?

[voice]

[ribbonbon]

Yeah! I guess that kind of thing really just depends on the kind of person you are.

And yeah! It's totally a cool name! It even sounds cool just to say..."Crona!" I mean, it just sounds like, really nice.

[She lets out a sheepish little laugh. Hopefully, that wasn't weird to say.]

[Voice]

[asobouyo]

Just like that!

But we're not really good friends yet, 'cus I don't know you that good.

So you should tell me more about you, so we can be even better friends.

[Voice]

[mybloodisblack]

What would you want to know?

[voice]

[mybloodisblack]

[It is a tad bit weird. He doesn't know how to respond to such a thing..]

...I thought it was just a normal sounding name...

[etudes]

[ There's a long pause.

Maybe she's just stunned into silence. Completely surprised. Or maybe she's just daydreaming off randomly, you never know with Kotomi. ]

.. There's some people who never go to school?

voice

[perplexme]

Just ask. It's easy after the first or second try.

[video]

[idealism]

You told me about how his voice hurt in your head. Do you remember?

voice

[contaeoro]

Well, do you know when you're being mean?

voice

[mybloodisblack]

Maybe...

[video]

[mybloodisblack]

There are things that hurt a lot more than that...

[mybloodisblack]

I was going to start before I came here. [He thinks. He never really listened to the scary blue guy.]
