Wow, I'm actually updating this pretty quickly…for me anyway. Enjoy this one guys~! Just to let you know this is kind of a mini chapter of Kris's random musings on stuff. So what I'm saying is, it's going to be really short. Actually, it wasn't even going to be a chapter (which is why I call it chapter 2 and a half) but I wrote it randomly and I figured I might as well put it up.

Hey, Kris, this is your chapter, say the disclaimer?

"Sure, whatever…She doesn't own Soul Eater, okay?"

Black Blood Is Thicker Than Water – Chapter 2 (And a Half): Musings

Kris's P.O.V

I moaned softly as Kitsune began to bandage the wounds on my left arm. After the fight, the rest of the school day had gone fairly uneventfully, and it was only when we all headed back to Maka and Soul's apartment that we had time to complain and heal up a little.

Kitsune finished bandaging my arm, and sighed, "Are you okay now Kris?"

I nodded shakily, and smiled, "Better, yeah."

She glanced around, Kid was sitting on the sofa, Liz and Patty either side of him, fussing about how asymmetrical the room was. Maka was trying to stop Lucian from killing Soul, although I had no idea what they were fighting about. Channon was watching this with mild amusement, and Crona was sitting in the corner being depressing as usual.

While I was surveying this, Kitsune walked over to Crona, and poked him gently. He jumped, and turned around, "H-Hey…Please don't do that…"

She tilted her head to one side, looking at him with an expression that I couldn't read, "…Crona, are you okay?"

"Y…Yeah…" he replied. Kitsune, being her usual self, completely ignored him. Cautiously, she grabbed his arm, and examined the deep wound he had slashed in it with his sword. Black blood was still slowly trickling from it, and it looked really painful, even from here.

She sighed again, but from here it sounded exasperated rather than annoyed. Still gripping his wrist in one hand, she began to bandage his wound with the other. I blinked, surprised that she would even bother…but then I couldn't help but smile, she had to find an exception to her 'I don't give a damn about strangers' rule at some point…Even if she hadn't realised it yet.

Crona was determinedly staring at the floor, seemingly doing all he could to avoid eye contact. It may have been my eyesight failing me but I could swear he was blushing…Unlucky for him that Kitsune is the kind of girl who would notice anything except the fact that someone had feelings for her. For a fairly smart person she's really stupid when it comes to that…

Then again, what do I know?

I told you that it would be short. I promise the next chapter will be longer and have slightly more plot…Maybe.

R & R people, it makes me happy!
