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 waits patiently...]

[mybloodisblack]

[Okay, give him some time. He usually doesn't have to talk very much..]

In my world, people are usually weapons, but mine was somehow put into my blood, and here I can only use him as a weapon, but back home he could come out of me, but now he can only talk in my head. And since he's in my blood, I can use my blood as a weapon, and it's really bad when my blood goes into someone else.

[Well...that barely covered anything.]

[spohkh]

[Spock raises an eyebrow...]

From what I understand of what you said, that is a rather fascinating physiology you possess.
May I ask how this 'weapon' talks in your head? [Spock's tone is curious... and not disgusted by any means. If anything, he would rather talk to this person further....]

[mybloodisblack]

[Well...'fascinating' is a new way to put it.]

I don't know...he just does? In weapon form, he can talk too.

[spohkh]

What does he say?

[mybloodisblack]

A lot of mean things.

[spohkh]

[Spock's expression turns into one of concern for this individual...]

Is there any way you can block such communication? Control it?

[mybloodisblack]

No, he's the one that controls it. He gives me orders when I fight too.

[spohkh]

If you wish it... I am amenable to being your....friend. [Spock does not exactly know what that entails, him having limited relationships.]

[mybloodisblack]

...Just like that? [Crona doesn't understand why people will so easily be his friend...it's confusing.]

[spohkh]

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.]

[spohkh]

Indeed.

However, I find that I am concerned with the nature of that weapon... Have you ever tried mental control?

[mybloodisblack]

No...Ragnarok is his own person. He controls everything.

[spohkh]

I see... That is most unfortunate. How are you able to function as an individual?

[mybloodisblack]

...I couldn't really back home...but here he can only yell at me, and let me fight.

[spohkh]

I see... that is interesting.. [This was actually relevant to Spock's research...]

However, that still does not dismiss the fact that this is difficult for you. Do you believe that any mental shielding would help?

[mybloodisblack]

I don't know...he's still in control of my blood, and that can hurt too.

[spohkh]

...he causes you pain? [Spock sounds concerned now...]

[mybloodisblack]

Sometimes...when he's mad.

He doesn't like me very much.

[spohkh]

[Spock is rendered speechless... it goes against his nature to merely stand back and know that someone is suffering when he might be able to help....]

Perhaps introductions are in order before I make any further suggestions... I am Spock.. What is your name?

[mybloodisblack]

...My name's Crona.

[spohkh]

It is well to make your acquaintance....

I am curious... How do you think Ragnarok will respond if I attempted to quiet him?

[mybloodisblack]

...Nice to meet you too.

He would try to hurt you. [He doesn't even have to think about it. It doesn't help that Ragnarok is listening to this conversation as well..]

[spohkh]

That is....

I see. [Spock does not know what to say. He has never encountered something like this before, and Crona was obviously a prisoner in his own skin... this was most unfortunate.]

Is there anything you would like to do at this time? [Spock feels that this is the only thing he can offer...]
