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.]

...So I just have to watch people for now?

Watch and ask questions. And if you find something that interests you, try it for yourself. Those are the best ways to learn.

That sounds kind of easy..

All you have to do is show a willingness to learn and you'll have no lack of teachers. No one has to work since money isn't required to buy food, clothing or shelter. There are a lot of skilled people here with a lot of time on their hands.

Everyone always looks like they have something to do.

They look busier than they actually are. Just politely ask them what they're doing and ask if they would mind teaching you.

...I don't think I could do that.

Why not? You sent a message out to everyone who has one of these journals and people seem willing to help you.

[Konan isn't sure if she's ever met such a timid-natured person as this one before.]

Talking through a book is easier than talking to people in person.

[origami_ninja]

Perhaps, but talking to people in person is how you make friends, Crona. Most people here are pleasant enough...and those who aren't will make that fairly obvious early on.

[mybloodisblack]

But I don't know how to deal with talking to people like that. It's hard.

It's a skill you can learn with practice. Practice is the best way to improve.

[mybloodisblack]

But practicing is hard...

Many things in life that are worth doing are hard. That doesn't mean you should give up before you even begin. If you want to learn, I can help you as long as you promise to do your best.

Okay....I promise..
