[Part one! Voice:

Crowe will be making a call filtered to those on the blitzball team.]

Well, we did pretty well at the bake sale thankfully. We have some money to put towards getting everyone uniforms now. Coach had a few made for us awhile ago, so we'll base the rest on those.

Ah... although it seems Coach is gone for good, I know that he'd want us to keep playing. Imagine how mad he'd be if we all stopped, eh? [A sad chuckle.] So, practice will resume as normal. Some of us, like Seychelles and myself, have been playing for awhile, so we can handle coaching for now, I suppose... Anyway, I hope to see you all after school as usual.


[Part two! Action:

Like many folks today, Crowe is a victim of the 10-Year Bazooka. Let it be known that walking up behind Lambo and trying to get his attention is a bad move. An explosion and a puff of smoke later, Crowe has been replaced with his 26-year-old self for the next few hours.

He'll be wondering how in the world he got back to this god-awful place, and is dreading that it might be for good. His memory is a bit fuzzy but it's coming back to him as he strolls through town. While it's still unmistakably Crowe, he's even taller and broader now, with shorter hair and less formal clothes. Looks a little like this, really. Feel free to approach him as he walks around trying to not be horrified, muttering to himself in Italian of all things.]

[ There's a kid in a Japanese kimono following him around town, nervous but clearly fascinated by the whole place. He's trying not to be too obvious about tailing the guy, but he's six, so it doesn't work very well.

Please don't scare him too bad, Crowe. ]

[He'll notice he's being followed. He'll turn around and give you a curious look, and a smile.]

Hi there.

[konekoma.livejournal.com]

[ The boy startles, gives a little bow, and stares back at Crowe with big unblinking eyes. ]

Hi.

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

You look as lost as I am. Do you need help?

[konekoma.livejournal.com]

Someone told me we're not in Japan anymore, but I don't know where this is.

[So Megumi has been walking around, trying figure out what the hell is going on. He's been trying to stop some people on the streets to ask a few questions, but most everyone he's asked so far as been nothing but unhelpful. Something was horribly off about them. Something he didn't trust. He notices Crowe across the street. Since he doesn't look like the stereotype, he's hoping he won't act the stereotype like the others.

So yes there is now some tall, skinny Japanese teenager approaching Crowe.]

.... Excuse me.

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

[He definitely stands out, being that he's not wearing 1950s clothes for one thing. He looks a bit lost in thought when you stop him.]

Ah. Yes?

[preshades.livejournal.com]

My apologies for interrupting, but ...

[brief pause. trying to figure out how to word this without sound like he's on drugs.] See I tried talking to some other people, and wouldn't answer my questions. I don't belong here and...

[He trails off. It's not his most eloquent moment, but sigh he's just so confused/exasperated.]

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

Oh, are you new in town? Ha, well you didn't pick the best person to approach. I used to live here a long time ago for awhile. But now I suddenly found myself back here for some reason. Um, I know it sounds strange, sorry.

[Ken's just walking around, but then he sees a very familiar head of hair and stops]

What the hell...Crowe? That you? When the fuck did you get so tall.

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

[He stops and looks at you for a second, then breaks out into a grin.]

…Ken! It's you! Finally, someone I recognize who doesn't look like they've gone insane. Ah… well, something weird is going on around here, which I guess is nothing new. I'm not sure what happened exactly, but, well, let's just say I'm … older for now? [He shrugs. He's not a hundred percent sure what happened.]

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

Wow...first Nagi gets younger by ten years and now you're all grown up! Did you go home and then come back?

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

This happened to someone else too? Weird… must be another one of Mayfield's pranks I suppose. I wonder how long this will last.

Yes, I was home. But the details are fuzzy. It was like I didn't remember this place until I showed up again.

[Is hiding in a nearby bush when she sees Crowe. Or at least, someone who looks like Crowe. Who is this? She pokes her head out.]

Crowe...?

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

[He stops, and looks at you a moment until the memory kicks in. Then he smiles broadly.]

Aisling! Good to see you!

[wolf-faerie.livejournal.com]

[how did he grow up so fast what is this]

You look different.

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

Ah, well, something strange is going on. It seems Mayfield pulled me here very suddenly. I'm a lot older than I was last time I was here. I wish I knew what caused this…

It's still me though, promise.

_{[Totally not watching where he's going--Oof, hello Crowe's chest! Meet Norway's face. Sidewalk, meet Norway's rear. Just going to stare at his legs now.]}

Watch where you're going, you.

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

[Just stares at you for a moment before snapping out of it. You he remembers right away. He then offers you a hand up, grinning.]

Sorry, Norway.

[russefeiring.livejournal.com]

_{[Grabbing the hand to pull himself up, awkwardly looking over at a mailbox. This is so awkward when it shouldn't be.]}

...Ya look different.

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

Ah, yeah… I'm not really sure what's going on. Suddenly I was standing in the street, back in Mayfield. I'd don't know if this is one of the town's standard tricks, or if I've been moved back in. It's very odd.

[zeppeli-cursed.livejournal.com]

[Loooow whistle.]

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

[Stops. Who in the world would...?

Ah.]


....Kakyoin?

[zeppeli-cursed.livejournal.com]

What happened to you?

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

Ah, something involving a bazooka, or so I'm told. I wish I knew for sure, but I was suddenly back here in Mayfield, standing in the street. It's been a bit overwhelming.

It's good to see you though. I've been seeing a lot of people I remember...
