[After over a year at Mayfield, Chrona's gotten used to really weird stuff like this, even though it's a lot weirder than usual. Sure, she sulked in a corner, and it was kinda weird that Ragnarok wasn't yelling at her... but she's sort of dealing with it. Kind of. A little.]... What's a "Leporid"? That weird person on the phone said I have to

Leporids are the approximately 50 species of rabbits and hares which form the family Leporidae.

[Thank you, Wikipedia.]

[hell_inmyhead]

R... rabbits? I-I have to kill bunnies...?

[OH GOD OH GOD CHILDHOOD TRAUMA WHY THE TRAUMA]

[mustnotdrink]

It seems so. Though overpopulation is a problem often associated with rabbits, it should not be a problem here. It is an illogical request.

[hell_inmyhead]

But... b-but. I don't want to do it. I can't. I don't want to do it again and Lady Medusa isn't here anymore to tell me to do it so why do I have to kill more bunnies...?

[Yeah, Chrona's just. Going to keep rambling like this for a while.]

[angelic_meister]

A...leporid? I'm sorry, Chrona, but I'm not sure what those are, either.

[hell_inmyhead]

It's... t-they're... Maka, I have to kill bunnies. I don't want to kill bunnies.

[angelic_meister]

Wh...What? I--Why? Why would they ask something like that?

[hell_inmyhead]

I don't know. Lady Medusa made me do it when I was little because she wanted me to learn how to kill... it doesn't make sense now...

[an_zero]

...

They're forcing a child to kill?

[hell_inmyhead]

... They've done it before. They try to make everyone do bad things a lot here...

[an_zero]

What will you do?

[hell_inmyhead]

... I can't do it...

[hourai_branch]

...I have to inspect you.

Oh, and eliminate doesn't have to mean kill. It can mean "get rid of".

[hell_inmyhead]

... Why? What do you mean, "inspect?"

A-And what else am I supposed to do, if I don't kill them...?

[hourai_branch]

I don't know; I just need your name.

Take them out of town?

[mydedicatedfix]

[OH GOODNESS CRONA you poor dear like you don't have problems enough as it is.]

Ahh, well, rabbits. Goodness knows where any animals are in this horrid place, though...

Ah, I mean. To solve your problem, rather, well--

Crona pardon my intrusion, but how much extra space do you have in your apartment?

[hell_inmyhead]

Not a lot... it's a lot smaller than usual...

[mydedicatedfix]

Well, ah.

A small enclosure is...

better than none, compared to extermination, is it not?

[So unconvincing. He's terrible at being optimistic.]

[hell_inmyhead]

But it said I have to eliminate them... it's not eliminating if I'm just hiding them, is it...?
