Umm... [Eyes peek up over the screen.] Hello? Can you... hear me...?

[This next part, is softer, in a whining tone, seeming to be more directed at himself than the listeners.]

There’s so many people here...

[He’s looking around now, away from the device.]

I hope Maka and the others are okay...

[There’s a weird look on his face when he talks about them.

[Oh... So this is how the devices work. Alright then. Souji flicks the screen a bit before he addresses it with a little wave, face as blank as it could ever be.]

I can hear you. Crona, right? I'm Souji Seta. [He tries to make it sound friendly, but, really, like everything else he says, it comes out more deadpan than intended. Hopefully the words themselves make up for that. Introductions are the one thing he's not terribly good at but likes to get right. Usually.]

[Oh it works! Crona jumps a bit when the device answers.]

Umm... Yes. That's right. My name is Crona. [That's easy enough. Introduction one... is a success. Right?]

Souji... [Crona isn't the most social, but he makes sure to remember the names he's told. This one will be no different.] I-It's nice to meet you...

[foolhardiness]

[Oh... Hopefully he didn't surprise her. Him. It. Whoever. He's just going to stare a little, slightly curious, and slightly unsure of what to say to someone who seems so... jittery.]

... You don't need to sound so nervous, you know. [Making... progress!!]

[howdoipeople]

[Well Crona's a little less jittery now but still quite poor at handling socializing matters. It's not bad it's just... new.]

This is how I always sound...

[Crona knows it's not good, but he's grateful that there are those who bear with him...]

Hello, Crona. You don't need to be sorry. my name's Mary Weather. It's nice to meet you too.

[howdoipeople]

[Oh no. He's still not particularly good with talking to girls. Okay well, Crona isn't the best at casually talking with anyone so... now is as good a time as any to try.]

U-Um h-hello. [She's... pretty.]

[silverbellchild]

(That's okay. Mary likes quite boys! They don't try to pull her hair)

Did you just arrive? This place can be very overwhelming when you first do so. I can help answer any of your questions if you would like.

video

[howdoipeople]

Um, yes. Yes I did. How did you know?

[As if it wasn't obvious. Then again... that overwhelmed nature is normal.]

video.

[centerofthering]

No need to be sorry, Crona. Are you okay?

video.

[howdoipeople]

[Is he okay? Someone's actually worried about him...]

I-I'm okay. I think. I mean... besides being a little confused...

[That isn't as bad as anything else, right? It's just a little confusion...]

video.

[centerofthering]

Arriving here tends to do that to people, it's nothing to be embarrassed about. I mean, I've been here before but I can't remember it and I feel bad because I can't remember my friends from before.

Oh and where are my manners. I'm Ty Lee! It's so nice to meet you, Crona!

[howdoipeople]

But then... how do you know you were here before?

[Fascinating. Crona's curiosity is showing.]

HAVE ALL MY LATENESS MICHI

[gangstaspeak]

You lookin' for Tails too? S'like she's a hot topic now.

I WILL TAKE ALL OF IT [1/I never know with Crona...]

[howdoipeople]

[Oh wow that guy looks intimidating...]

2/?

[howdoipeople]

[Wait no that's not right... Well, it is but...]

3/??

[howdoipeople]

[Maybe it's that... unique speech pattern...]
