[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]]

Eheh. I didn't even dare to say anything to them. I just hid and watched and . . . remembered.

But no matter what happens, we'll make it home again. Crowe . . . ! We'll get there.

I showed up right in front of Clyde, so it was sort of unavoidable. I'm glad it happened though. It was great to see him, even if it was weird seeing him so much older.

Exactly. That's why I'm going to work harder than ever on getting out of here.

Date: 2010-11-19 04:21 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com
. . . Yeah. And we should work to get everyone out, too. Not just as people are droned, but . . . to really figure out the right way.

Did you get to see any of your other friends, too?

My thoughts exactly. No one should be left behind here. Even those who don't have a home to go back to - I want to find them somewhere else to go.

[He's quiet for a moment. He's still a bit concerned over the note's lack of mentioning Al, and he didn't remember Clyde bringing him up at all. He remembered asking something, but not the answer... it all gave him a bad feeling.]

Ah, sadly no. B-But that's okay. I know I'll be seeing them someday soon, then.

From: [identity profile] a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com
I hope you get that chance very soon.

[He couldn't remember things very clearly, but . . . from what he had seen, it looked as if everyone he knew had been doing alright.]

. . . Do you think that's possible? For people to go to other people's worlds?

From: [identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com
I-I hope so. Some people... they're dead back where they're from. I don't want to send them back to that.

[It still bothered him, what Ed Elric had told him about Mr. Hughes, weeks ago...]

O-Oh . . .

[Lucas is silent for a few seconds.]

I understand. I understand wanting that . . . But. I think that might not be something we should try to change.

From: [identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com
I-I know, but I still want to try. I want everyone to get out of here and have somewhere to go back to.

I don't know if it will make you feel any differently, but they do have something to go back to. People . . . when they die, there's something more.

I hope you're right. It's scary enough to know Mayfield can pull people here after they die, so I can only hope they have something good to go back to...

[Lucas's tone sounds slightly more urgent now.]

No, I mean. It's true. I . . . I'm sure. I know. There definitely is for sure. So . . . So they will have something for them, still.

From: [identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com
[A pause. He wonders how you're so sure.]


Good. Thinking about people having nothing to go back to is... is too much.

Date: 2010-11-22 12:50 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com
Yeah. There's something more. I don't know what it is, but . . . I don't think it's anything bad.

Date: 2010-11-22 01:13 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com
...I'll trust you on that.

[There is a small intake of breath, as if he wants to say something more. But there's only silence for a few more seconds before he exhales. He sounds half apologetic.]

So . . .

That doesn't change anything, though. We'll still . . . We'll still fight hard.

Date: 2010-11-22 01:34 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com
Of course. I won't ever give up. [He manages to sound quite stern.]

Date: 2010-11-22 01:37 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] a-gentle-boy.livejournal.com
Not for anything.

[Lucas echoes the sentiments, though his voice rings a little less enthusiastically than it had at the beginning of the conversation.]
