[Crowe's been wondering if Mayfield's going to give him a break anytime soon. This have been so insane lately. After getting hit with the Ten-Year Bazooka, Crowe returned home to find that his older self had left a note behind. Crowe saw a lot in the future that surprised him, but already the memories were hazy. He remembers his friend Clyde was there though, and how happy he was to see a familiar face again. It was almost too much, getting brought back here. But after reading the note (and not to mention what was happening when he switched back), Crowe realized he can't leave Mayfield that easy. Not just because Mayfield won't let him out - he has more he needs to do here first.

One of the things that disturbed him the most, though, was the total lack of information on his lifelong friend Alucard. He didn't see him in the future. He didn't remember Clyde saying anything. The letter left for him didn't mention Al at all. It really worried him.

All in all, he had a lot to think about. It was time to get in gear again.]




[General call:]
So, a lot of people seemed affected by this... time-travel affliction? [He's not sure what else to call it.] I thought maybe at first this was another of Mayfield's pranks, but a lot of people are talking about a man with a bazooka. I-I don't know what a bazooka would have to do with this, but if that person, or anyone else who knows what's going on, could speak up, that would be helpful. D-Did anyone happen to talk to me while I was switched...?

[Being shot with a bazooka and then sent ten years into his future just did not make sense. At all. SOMEONE EXPLAIN.]

Ah, also, I was wondering if anyone out there would be willing to take on a student for combat training or martial arts? I recently lost my last instructor, and I'd like to keep up on it. I can't offer much in return I suppose, but I'll do what I can. Um, I suppose I wasn't working with any particular style, so I'm open to options. Thanks.

[Call filtered to: Kay Faraday and Zidane:]
Since Miss Armstrong seems... out of commission, I was wondering if the two of you were willing to get back to our old plans. We had made some good progress, I think, and I'd like to get back to work. Would you like to meet up sometime to discuss it?

[Action:]
[It's been brought to Crowe's attention that no one in his house really cooks no that it's completely drone-free again. So between school, his job and all his workouts, he'll be at the grocery store and the library. At the library he's going to try and instill the help of some girls to find him cook books, since the library doesn't really have those for the teen guys. At the store he'll be milling about, looking a bit lost, holding boxes of various things, trying to figure it all out. He's always had someone to cook for him in his life, and now he regrets never learning.]

[[Just indicate what you're responding to - call, library, etc., please! :D]]

I had an office... my own business. A detective agency, I think...

Oh! Chouno, that's right! Hey, that's great news!

[withmorelove.livejournal.com]

A detective, hm? I didn't know you were interested.

It's the best news I've ever had. [He actually laughs. And not ironically.] I get to live!

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

I've been thinking about it for awhile now, but even I was surprised to see I had gone through with it.

Well as weird as this whole ordeal was, I'm glad to hear some good came from it!

[withmorelove.livejournal.com]

Hm. Why surprised?

Well, it's funny. I never though about what I'd do in the future, but now I suppose I should start.

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

Ah, that's complicated really. As weird as it sounds, I really doubt my parents would approve. They're, uh... not the most law-abiding people, I guess.

Was there anything you really wanted to do, then?

[withmorelove.livejournal.com]

...Well, I wouldn't have guessed.

Not that I've thought of. It was my purpose to become the head of my family-that would be a full time job. Business, politics, we have no small influence in all areas of the world. I suppose that's what I'd be doing if I live.

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

I-It's not something I really like to talk about, honestly.

Ah. Would you be happy doing that, then?

[withmorelove.livejournal.com]

Hm. Then we won't.

...I have no idea. I don't think I really know what being happy feels like, properly.

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

I suppose it's never too late to start.
