perfectsymmetry: (serious)

[Like a few other folks in town, something is up with Crowe. The usually bright paperboy, who chats pleasantly with everyone, is skulking about town looking downright volitile. Anyone who approaches him will be met with unusual hostility and bitter remarks.

He'll be still going about his usual business though. He'll show up to blitzball and combat practice with Jecht and his friends. He'll be absolutely ruthless today though, especially while fighting. Enjoy, Jecht!

Even after that, he can be found in the rec center, using the boxing equipment there, fiercely pummeling the practice bags. His fists, by this point, are raw and are starting to bleed. Occasionally, he stops and grabs his head, looking like he might be a bit dizzy. A small part of him is telling him that something is wrong, VERY wrong. But it's quickly quashed. This is the way he is now. The way he always should have been. Right?]

/lacks the self-control to keep Ren away from this

Oi, Calleo!

[A perky thief with a tail is busy staring at the jewellery shop window, thinking how cheap-looking and overpriced everything is. He's hoping to meet up with Crowe at some point because of the City Hall plan, but as if now is a seriously good time to talk about that..]

[Crowe shakes his head a bit, and he looks to Ren.]

What.

[Yeah, today's not a good day for anyone. Thanks to his parent's trade, he knows a fair amount about jewelry. As he passes by:]

Don't bother. That stuff is all rubbish. It's not worth anyone's money or time.

I'm with you there - who'd want to buy all this crap?

oh jeeze just saw the pinky-promise tag. I lol'd but then I cried on the inside. ;;

Take a breather, eh? You're all outta breath and--

Dude, are you bleeding?

JUST FOR YOU BB

[He... does look kinda bad. For several reasons. He looks down at his knuckles.]

Yeah, I am. So?

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2010-08-23 04:33 pm (UTC)(link)
Certainly not me. It's not even worth breaking in for. These windows, even. They're no security at all. [Taps the glass.] It's wonderful how trusting Mayfield is of its residents. Or is it that it knows how it doesn't really matter?

Gross. C'mere, we should wash that...

No, it's fine. Leave it alone.

[Aaaaand back to boxing.]

[identity profile] ohlookboobs.livejournal.com 2010-08-23 04:39 pm (UTC)(link)
Uh...[Looks around and whispers] I'm not sure you want to say that out loud, buddy.

...n...o. It'll take like ten seconds to wrap, I promise. I know my way around gauze.

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2010-08-23 04:42 pm (UTC)(link)
Hmph. What do I care? What are they going to do, throw me in jail? Drone me? Whatever. The drones would laugh it all off anyway.

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2010-08-23 04:45 pm (UTC)(link)
I... I don't need your help.

[identity profile] ohlookboobs.livejournal.com 2010-08-23 04:46 pm (UTC)(link)
[Sheesh....what's up with this guy?]

[identity profile] teh-sword.livejournal.com 2010-08-23 04:50 pm (UTC)(link)
...but you do need a bandaid. Chill the machismo and let me take a look.

[He angrily snaps his wrist away.]

Wh-whaat do you think you're doing?! I said leave me alone.

[He turns around and starts punching again, but he's losing his stamina, and is breating heavily. Crowe's run himself too thin so many times here in Mayfield, and now is no exception. The Raven's Blood - unknown to him - isn't making it any easier.]

...what the hell, Calleo--?

[You tug at him and he stumbles back a bit, and he turns to you with an angry look.]

What do you want? I'm trying to practice!

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2010-08-23 05:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Unfortunately, if jewelry is what you want, this town doesn't give you much of an option. But none of this nonsense is going to impress anyone.

[identity profile] teh-sword.livejournal.com 2010-08-23 05:17 pm (UTC)(link)
Want you not to break yourself. [] Heck's got you in such a bad mood, eh...?

[identity profile] ohlookboobs.livejournal.com 2010-08-23 05:17 pm (UTC)(link)
[Casually] Don't worry - I think I'll pass. [Really doesn't like this guy's attitude. Still, if he goes on talking like this, some of the drones might get suspicious]

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2010-08-23 05:20 pm (UTC)(link)
[Snaps his hands away again. He may be tired, but he's a strong guy.]

Nothing. I'm fine. What are you not getting here?
