It exploded. The world did. That's what he said.

I can't deal with the world exploding.

[Bon might not have picked the right way of introducing Crona to this world.]

[personal profile] hellpyre 2013-04-17 02:58 am (UTC)(link)
[Bon you are so getting a Look right now.

But it softens when she looks back at Crona, coming closer to the two of them.]


That's what they've been sayin', yeah... I'm sorry we don't know more than that...
kyotoprincess: (less-angry yelling)

[personal profile] kyotoprincess 2013-04-17 03:07 am (UTC)(link)
[Bon shoots Rin one of those 'whaaaaat?' looks. He's not to blame here he was being honest!]

It's still out there, we go and explore it sometimes, looking for survivors 'n stuff.
blackblooded: (fire)

[personal profile] blackblooded 2013-04-17 03:10 am (UTC)(link)
Are there lots of survivors?
hellpyre: (pic#6025872)

[personal profile] hellpyre 2013-04-17 03:17 am (UTC)(link)
[Well if he's being honest, she doesn't see any reason not to be honest also.]

Just a handful of us right now. But people show up just like you did.
kyotoprincess: (Default)

[personal profile] kyotoprincess 2013-04-17 03:24 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. I just showed up here five days ago, so people can come here at any time.

[The least he can do is try to make up for scaring Chrona right off the bat.]
blackblooded: (tilting)

[personal profile] blackblooded 2013-04-17 03:28 am (UTC)(link)
There are lots of people.

The professor, Miss Marie, the little reaper, Black*Star.

[Maka.]
hellpyre: (Default)

[personal profile] hellpyre 2013-04-17 03:33 am (UTC)(link)
Uhm... well...

[Looking nervously at Bon now. They can't really make promise, not when they can't know for sure if they can keep them. But at the same time Crona looks like one of those emotionally fragile types and they can't afford to have people breaking down.]
kyotoprincess: (thinking)

[personal profile] kyotoprincess 2013-04-17 03:47 am (UTC)(link)
[Bon glances over at Rin and shrugs. What can they say? Promises aren't a good idea, they can't guarantee that, but breaking Crona is a bad idea too.]

If they're out there, we'll find them and bring them back. We can tell that other guy about 'em too so he can look for them.

[He's forgetting Maka's name at the moment.]
blackblooded: (tilting)

[personal profile] blackblooded 2013-04-17 03:52 am (UTC)(link)
The professor has a big piece of metal in his head. Miss Marie has an eye patch. The little reaper has stripes on his hair. Black*Star is really loud.

There are other people. Lots of them.

[There are other people. Maka.]
hellpyre: (pic#6025876)

[personal profile] hellpyre 2013-04-17 04:09 am (UTC)(link)
[It's a decent compromise at least.]

... you mean Maka? Geez for some one with such a great memory you sure forget names easily enough.
kyotoprincess: (more yelling)

[personal profile] kyotoprincess 2013-04-17 04:11 am (UTC)(link)
Shut up! It's not like I've talked to the guy that much!

[Wow rude Rin he was sleeping for a couple days there.]
blackblooded: (serious red sky)

[personal profile] blackblooded 2013-04-17 04:14 am (UTC)(link)
[At the name, Crona's head snaps up, eyes wide, irises going from black to pale blue like liquid color draining out. Then they go black again, pools of ink.]

Maka's here? Where?
hellpyre: (pic#6025877)

[personal profile] hellpyre 2013-04-17 04:26 am (UTC)(link)
[... wow ok that was freaky, but more importantly--]

You know Maka? That's... fortunate...

[There's a weird feeling in her chest, like a nagging uncertainty as to whether or not this person can be trusted. She's hoping they can, because this is not a place for fights to break out amongst survivors.

Still, if trouble starts, they've got the makings of a decent fighting force so far...]


I'll go get him.

[She doesn't leave time for an argument, jogging off to the apartments to go knock on Maka's door.]

Maka... ? Uhm. We found some one on the skyway. They say they know you.
unflattering: ([chat] yes I'm definitely bleeding)

[personal profile] unflattering 2013-04-17 04:38 am (UTC)(link)
[A survivor? From his world?]

Really?

[Oh no, he's feeling optimistic.]

Well--geez, I feel like a jerk for not going out on the skyway, where are they?

[Rin has gained +1 party member.]
hellpyre: (Default)

[personal profile] hellpyre 2013-04-17 04:41 am (UTC)(link)
[/triumphant music!

Rin motions with a hand for Maka to follow.]


Don't feel bad, it was Bon who found them first. Uhm... sorry, I didn't get a name [mostly because she was busy interrupting Bon being a jerk B|] but they're kinda thin, pink hair, really skittish... ? Sound familiar?

[Please sound familiar and please don't be some crazy stalker who wants to murder Maka]
unflattering: ([awk] oh...oh...)

[personal profile] unflattering 2013-04-17 04:45 am (UTC)(link)
...Ah...

[Right. Right...that sure was his stomach doing flips and his heart wrenching.

Crona...the last time Maka saw them...]


That's Crona...they...they asked about me?
hellpyre: (pic#6025877)

[personal profile] hellpyre 2013-04-17 04:46 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah-- well, after I mentioned your name...

[Ok Maka being nervous is making her nervous. She stops just before they're out the doors of the apartment building, turning with a concerned look.]

They're not... some one bad, are they?
unflattering: ([pout] 8C)

[personal profile] unflattering 2013-04-17 04:48 am (UTC)(link)
...No.

[Crona is his friend.]

No, they're not.

[If Crona had the frame of mind to ask about him...]

They're one of my best friends.

[And there he goes walking ahead to get to Crona as soon as possible.]
hellpyre: (pic#6025875)

[personal profile] hellpyre 2013-04-17 04:51 am (UTC)(link)
[Rin would have apologized for the assumption, had Maka waited another second. She still has her worries - Maka is still a fairly new friend to her as well and trusting everything he says at face value until they've known each other a while longer would be reckless and stupid.

But still... he didn't seem upset. Just sad.

Something must have happened, to warrant that kind of reaction.

There's nothing more to be said really, so she just follows quietly, intending to watch the reunion from a slight distance.]
blackblooded: (ragnarok and bullied)

[personal profile] blackblooded 2013-04-17 11:36 pm (UTC)(link)
... him? [But then Rin runs off before Crona can ask what's going on, Rin runs off.]

... if it's a him, it's not Maka...

[Crona mutters the words at Rin's retreating back, but it's no use, and Crona's left alone with Bon.

... being alone is probably better than being with Bon, so Crona starts walking after the girl with the tail.

And then... that's Maka, isn't it? That's Maka. Short hair, pants, but Maka.

A boy Maka?

Ragnarok pops out to investigate.
]
unflattering: ([encourage] you're better than that)

[personal profile] unflattering 2013-04-19 12:51 am (UTC)(link)
[It's Maka, even if it's not the Maka Crona knows, he certainly knows Crona judging by the look of surprised recognition on his face. Ragnarok draws his attention as he gets closer and stops short.

The thorny insanity isn't clogging up the area, Crona looks as meek as they ever were...]


Crona...

[He's so relieved he might cry.

Except that would be lame, so he just settles for hugging Crona instead.]


I'm so glad you made it.
blackblooded: (another shocked)

[personal profile] blackblooded 2013-04-19 01:09 am (UTC)(link)
[Boy Maka.

That is a boy Maka.

There is a boy Maka flinging his arms around Crona and holding tight and Crona goes stiff, shoulders rising and arms pulled close against the torso. The meister's shaking, breath coming quick and shallow. Panic. Panic because this is not Maka. This is not Maka.

A few terrifying seconds before Crona shoves Maka away, eyes wide in terror.
]

No! You're not Maka! You're not!
unflattering: ([??] what even--)

[personal profile] unflattering 2013-04-19 01:15 am (UTC)(link)
--What--what are you talking about? Of course I'm Maka...

[Maka holds up his arms so Crona can get a better look at him.]

What do you mean?
blackblooded: (Default)

[personal profile] blackblooded 2013-04-19 01:18 am (UTC)(link)
[This time it's Ragnarok who responds, reaching out and grabbing Maka's shirt.]

Damn, tiny tits. Nobody told me you were a tranny!

[Crona twitches, cowering slightly in a preemptive attempt at dodging a punch. Ragnarok's attempts at groping Maka in the past have ended badly.

Seriously Rangarok why does Crona hang out with you????
