[Today, Luceti, you will be able to find someone bleeding around the edge of town today...
Or well, from any other angle than his own, to those who walk by, it will look somewhat like a small fountain of black ink coming from out of one of his arms. Some of it, dripping to the ground, but the rest? It's slowly taking an odd looking shape as it

Bleeding? Are you all right?

Yes. A little weak, perhaps?
[ Point taken. ]

A little..?
[He doesn't see much weird about that though.]

Then you have lost too much! I strongly suggest you seek treatment.
[ That is weird, Crona, it is very weird. ]

But...I'll be fine.
[He's pretty sure about that any way. Ragnarok won't let him die.]
Reply
For now, perhaps, but I'm positive the loss will catch up to you in time.
[ Alf is failing hard, and he knows as much. This is not good. ]

But...
[Wait..no, he's run out of things to say to get him out of this. He can only look a bit defeated at it. He just knows he'll be fine.]

It's terribly selfish of me to demand you receive treatment, but I say this for your sake.
[ That's all right. Alf realizes that they've been saying the same stuff to each other this whole time, just worded differently. ]

And he'll just be quiet for a moment, so he can think. He probably won't be left alone any other way so..]
...Just no magic.

[ Sorry, Crona. He's persistent. That one condition surprises him, though. ]
No?

He has learned by now to just give in with persistent people. But all he answers with is a nod.]

Hm, well. If that's what the kid wants. Luckily, Alf has at least a handkerchief to work with, so he pulls that out. As expected, it's white and blue. ]
We'll just have to work with manual treatment, then.

Magic just creeps him out. And he doesn't move at all just yet. He's just waiting.]

Alf's certain Crona won't start running away from him or anything, so he heads over to the kid and offers his hand; palm up, as a gesture of if he can take a look at the arm. ]

He won't, but it looks like he might. He'll hold out his arm very hesitantly. The cut might be hard to see, since...well it is pretty bloody. But it goes from his wrist, to almost his elbow.
It's a wonder he isn't dead yet, really.]

And a wonder, indeed. Alf's more than a little shocked by the severity of blood loss. It's all over the kid's arm; how could he possibly have been fine?
Well . . . as long as the blood's started to clot, it should be somewhat better. He's going to have to take Crona to the clinic, he thinks. First, he looks over the arm to see if he can pinpoint the cut . . . it's going to be hard. ]
