[Today in the park, Crowe can be seeing leaping about trees! Well, sort of. He's climbing up and down them as fast as he can, timing himself as he does so with a stopwatch. He's pretty fluid, and after a few runs in one tree, he has it down to a matter of seconds. Once he accomplishes that, he moves on to the next one, doing the same. He looks exhausted, but pleased once he checks his times. He's breaking his old records.

Later, he'll be found practicing a tightrope walk. He's just using a regular rope tied between two trees for now, only a few feet off the ground. He does alright but he's new at this, and falls off a lot. Most of the time he manages to land on his feet, but he does slip on occasion. But he'll get back up and try, try again. Practice makes perfect.

Crowe's been a bit closed off from everyone lately, thanks to basically living at the park. And after the droning of three of his friends in a short amount of time - the hardest on him being Massimo's - he wonders if he should have listened to Ichobod's advice from many months back about not making too many friends here. It didn't make things any easier when this happened.

Of course, this doesn't mean he isn't free for talking/ridicule/question what the hell he's up to since he's in a public park.]

Yeah, I just need more practice. I guess you've been doing that awhile then, eh?

Yeah, I can't even remember when I first started, I think around the 6th or 7th grade. All I remember is that I keep falling and hitting my face, though now I could easily walk pretty far.

Practice makes perfect, right? I'll kep at it. My balance is fairly good so all I need to do is keep trying. Then maybe I cn feel safe enough to try it from a higher distance.

Definitely, no matter how it sounds like a cakewalk, everyone has to try something lighter then move slowly to the heavier stuff!
