For Zack Fair

[madnessrising]

Set semi in snowblindrpg. Using the setting, but powers (such as SOLDIER and Ragnarok) are still in tact.

[The tablet was beeping to find shelter, but Crona ignored it. Just like Crona had ignored it every single day for the last four days since arriving here. Just like Crona hadn't moved from this house for the last four days since arriving here.

Because this wasn't Death City. And this wasn't any place that Medusa had ever taken Crona to. And this wasn't even a place that was recognisable at all. Which meant that this was bad, it was really bad, and Crona had no idea what to do that wouldn't make it worse.

Medusa would be so angry.

Just that thought alone had been enough to set off fresh moans and whimpers every few hours like clockwork, which would probably be the first thing Zack heard on entering the house to shelter for the night. Not at all creepy, right?]

[Crona's eyes roll up to look at him, wide and intense. The madness is pushed at bay for now, but there's a glimmer of it hiding not too deep behind the tears, and the ramblings that fall from Crona's lips aren't exactly the most coherent.]

I said I didn't want to fight. I told you... I said I didn't want to, and I didn't. But I have to, I have to go back, and I need to be strong.

...I'm so scared.

[ He's not foolish enough to try his luck with a hand on Crona's shoulder or anywhere near him this time. Not just yet. But he does end up crouching again to his level if not with a sore grunt. Really, he's had a lot worse than the spikes that burst into his skin and with the aim being as erratic as it had been, Crona'd not hit anything vital. But it still hurts. But he'll take care of that in a minute.

Right then, he's going to address the kid lightly: ] Your name's Crona, right?

[Zack is too good of a person to be so kind to someone who just tried to kill him, and that fact isn't lost on Crona. It's the sort of thing Maka might have done, and it eases a little more of the tension.]

That's right, and my sword is Ragnarok. I'm sorry, he can be really rude.

[Trying to kill someone is rude.]
