*lands Beelzebub, with a certain amount of relief, and holds the door open for Maka*

This place looks safe enough, wouldn't you say?

*really only stopping here because it looks dry and he is so, so tired of being out in the rain without an umbrella, but- hey! no fires here, at least!*

*steps into the cafe*

Ah, thanks. It doesn't look like it's gotten hit too badly by the storm, at least.

*follows, closes the door behind them again*

Yes, it appears to be more or less intact... I wonder if the owners are here? A warm drink sounds good about now.

They might be. I doubt we're the only ones here.

*looks around a little and spots a few tables*

Let's sit down and wait.

Mm. Good idea. *sits down, in silence for a moment- should they talk about that dream? does she want to talk about it? would it be rude of him to bring it up?*

...You know, you never did tell me what happened during your fight with Chrona. Was that... what that dream was about? *trying to ease into this as tactfully as possible, and probably failing*

*takes a seat across from him, and nods quietly*

Mm. I was able to find Chrona's wavelength... She's always been by herself.

*thinks- well, if they're friends now, then Chrona could be alright. despite having been on the opposite side all this time. he trusts Maka's judgement, anyway*

...Do you think you can get her away from Medusa, then? By making friends with her?

*looks up, blinking for a moment - such quick acceptance?*

*her face darkens a bit when he mentions Medusa; it was all her fault Chrona ended up the way she did* Maybe. I wasn't able to stay with her long after that, but I guess it would depend on what Shinigami-sama says.

...If I may ask, what happened to convince you she was worth saving? *because she hadn't seemed all that accepting of Chrona before- so something must have happened, and details would be appreciated*

I couldn't even touch Chrona at first. I thought... if I had the same power as the Demon Sword, I'd be able to grasp her wavelength.

When I did, she was all alone. She'd enclosed herself in her own circle.

*looks at him with conviction; she's determined now, and her voice is stronger* It's not Chrona's fault she's the way she is. Medusa never saw her as anything other than a tool.

*nods- that explains it, then. anyone treated that way would be a little off*

If Father allows her into the city, we'll have to make her feel welcome, then. *which sounds weird to say, considering that these things are already happening in some way back home* I can understand how being treated that way would... affect someone's mind.

*smiles and nods* Thanks, Kid-kun. *she relaxes; it feels like a huge weight has been lifted off her shoulders*

...She would leave her in a room with Ragnarok when she was little. The black blood affected her too. Without that, I probably wouldn't have been able to reach her, now that I think about it.

*frowns at that- Medusa really is horrible* Alone with that... thing? That must have been terrible.

*but... wait. he already knew that Chrona was affected by the black blood; what does she mean by...*

...'Affected her too'?

*oh, that's right - the dream hadn't shown him everything, had it?*

...Yeah. Soul was injected with black blood the first time we came across Chrona. When we resonated, it entered into me too. *winces a bit at the memory*

I got swept up in the insanity for awhile, but Soul was able to pull me back.

*sort of worried about that- what if it happens again?*

...But you're alright now? It hasn't happened again since we arrived here?

fearless_tech January 25 2009, 06:58:26 UTC
No, I'm fine. I think it only happens when Soul and I resonate.
