My... my blood is black again.... I-I'm glad... I didn't like when it was red... it was too diffrent....

B-But... Ragnarok's still gone... I don't get it. He's part of my blood... he should be back now. But he isn't... I-I don't know how to deal with this...

[fallen_cupid]

Oh, are you missing a friend, too? I'm sorry.

[hell_inmyhead]

He's my partner... i-it's kind of nice not having him around... but I think I miss him...

[fallen_cupid]

Aww. I feel the same way, sort of.

What kind of partners were you?

[hell_inmyhead]

He's my weapon... without him, I can't fight...

[mr_blandy_bland]

So I guess this isn't just a prank.

Ah....I can't say that I understand the blood part...but you're missing someone too?

[hell_inmyhead]

H-He's been gone for a while... I thought he'd be back now... but he's not...

[mr_blandy_bland]

I see then. I suppose I'm going to be stuck without Kumajiro-san for quite sometime now.

It just feels strange not having him around, especually since we've been inseparable since I was born...ah...I think. Come to think of it, I really don't know where he came from.

[hell_inmyhead]

I-I've known Ragnarok for a long time too.... I didn't think anyone was able to separate him from me...

[eye_do]

The black blood!?

[hell_inmyhead]

Y-Yeah... but I don't understand.... why isn't Ragnarok back now...?

[eye_do]

Yes, that doesn't make sense at all... But then, it's not as if anything in this town does.

[hell_inmyhead]

I-I guess you're right.... I still kind of miss him though...

[braided_icarus]

Black...blood...?

[hell_inmyhead]

Uh-huh...

[braided_icarus]

...How....?

How can blood be black? I know old blood can get pretty dark, but still....They'd have to screw with the red blood cells or something, and...that....this..makes no sense.

[hell_inmyhead]

It's black because of Ragnarok... a-at least, I thought it was him... I don't know now...

[takeyour_soul]

...It might be nice not to have to deal with him for a while longer?

[hell_inmyhead]

[There's a bit of awkward silence before Chrona responds.]

.... I-I guess...

[takeyour_soul]

S-Sorry, would you still rather not talk to me?

[hell_inmyhead]

.... I-I don't know... I like talking to you, Maka...
