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.]

...I can try..?

[contaeoro]

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

[mybloodisblack]

Maybe.

[contaeoro]

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

[mybloodisblack]

...Yeah.

[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.]

[mybloodisblack]

...I'm not good at that.

[contaeoro]

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

[mybloodisblack]

I know...but it's hard.

[contaeoro]

If it's difficult, maybe you can find people who'll be willing to do it with you.

[mybloodisblack]

How can I do that?

[contaeoro]

Like what you did just earlier. You can ask people.

[mybloodisblack]

[He's...just going to make an affirmative sound. Still not good with people..]

[contaeoro]

You can always ask me.

[mybloodisblack]

Alright.

[contaeoro]

... Good luck, all right? I'm sure you'll do fine.

[mybloodisblack]

...Thank You..

[contaeoro]

You're welcome, Crona.
