80

[Recovering from the Independence Day incident wasn't easy. Crowe still had nightmares the last few days that, while fading now, were hard to shake. That feeling of being two people in one was unsettling, not knowing which was right.

At least his room has a lot of reminders of which Calleo was the right one. All his things from home, all the photos he's taken with is friends in Mayfield. Those notes from Lucas. That goofy hat Kay and Adolph found in the western town. The pendant from Norway. His extensive journal chronicling his time here, all the horrid events Mayfield has put him through. A journal he is now writing in, filling in the details of July Fourth, and the body of Jane Smith, also known as Samantha Achewood.

Once he's done, he'll place a call to the town. Filtered from the usual NPCs:]


Hi everyone. Um. I-I know it's been a difficult week, but we need to try to understand what happened. I think... I-I was wondering, maybe we should have some sort of town meeting? I know we have the pamphlets, but I think it would be good to get everyone together to discuss things that have happened in this town. Get everyone up to speed, let them know what we're dealing with, answer questions, share information... We're all in this together, right? Whether you want to go home or not, I-I think we can all agree that, at the very least, we'd like to get to the bottom of this place so that, um, e-even if we can't go home, we really can make this a decent place to live.

[Later, Crowe's out and about with his camera. He hasn't taken it up in awhile, and with this great summer weather, the town is crawling with people. He wants to clear his head, and take some fun pictures for the collection. His mission: to record the non-droned people in this town. He keeps a large photo album with names with people's names. It's a nice record of the people as they should be, before Mayfield brainwashes them. You might find him trying to snap some candid photos. Care to pose, or are you photo-shy? Crowe's a good climber, so you also might find him sitting in high tree branches, on your rooftop, at the peak of Makeout Point - anywhere he can get a cool shot. Come bug him!]

Better then ever. I can remember the Wasteland now.

...which you know comes with it's own ups and downs.

[Sob...why does she have to remember deathclaws. The world was a happier place when it didn't have deathclaws in it.]

Maybe. [Ken sighed at the mention of Crane, he had forgotten that the skinny doctor and Crowe had been friends as well.]

I wish I had a picture of Zev, with all that crazy hair of his.

[ Sweden has told him that he was there before, and with this he assumes it's true. ]

'pparently. Ya know me?

[Crowe can't help it - he's an emotional kid. His face falls. He knew this was going to happen. He *knew* it.

He tries to cover it up, though. Maybe he's joking?]


Haha, a-ah, yeah. Y-You don't remember...?

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2011-07-12 12:44 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, don't think I knew him, I'm afraid. But I can always take a look. I have a lot.

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2011-07-12 12:45 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, I guess so, yeah? But you're yourself again, that's what's important.

[identity profile] weiss-tank.livejournal.com 2011-07-12 12:45 am (UTC)(link)
You'd know him if you knew him. He would have hit on you since you walk on two legs. [Ken sighed and rubbed the back of his neck.]

If you do happen to have a picture. He was kinda tall, and had pointy ears. Blonde hair, darker skin, that sorta thing.

[identity profile] littlemiss101.livejournal.com 2011-07-12 12:49 am (UTC)(link)
That's true.

I've been meaning to ask someone ...I thought we were supposed to get things back after the town went crazy? Did they stop doing that or something?

[identity profile] criticizes.livejournal.com 2011-07-12 12:49 am (UTC)(link)
Not a thing. [ BLUNT FOREVER. If he saw Crowe's face fall, he didn't pay much mind to it. If the kid has something to say, he should say it!! ]

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2011-07-12 12:57 am (UTC)(link)



Oh.


I, ah, figured that... I-It's happened to a lot of friends of mine, s-so...

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2011-07-12 01:00 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, not always. Usually, though. It might be soon, if it is.


... Or maybe all of this is unplanned. Or it isn't over.

[ and he does make a v sign with his fingers right in time! but his expression is his normal serious one- actually, it's more serious than normal, which probably looks pretty weird... lmfao

anyway after Crowe finished he lowers his hand. ]


Was that acceptable?

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2011-07-12 01:02 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah. That might be best, in the end. I'll work on this. Get everyone caught up to speed...

That would be great. Thanks a lot, Ilsa.

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2011-07-12 01:03 am (UTC)(link)
That's not a bad idea either. We don't know if we could be watched out there... I wonder if anyone has gotten droned while out there?

[identity profile] criticizes.livejournal.com 2011-07-12 01:03 am (UTC)(link)
So ya know how to handle it.

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2011-07-12 01:10 am (UTC)(link)
[Oh hey, have some honesty from Crowe.]

No. I don't. I-It keeps happening because I've been here so long, to so many of my friends, a-and...

A-Ah. Sorry. I-I'm a stranger to you now, so...

[He rubs the back of his neck and looks at his shoes. So awkward forever.]

[identity profile] littlemiss101.livejournal.com 2011-07-12 01:11 am (UTC)(link)
Wonderful.

Ah, with my luck I'd get something stupid. ....like my bobby pin collection or something.

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2011-07-12 01:12 am (UTC)(link)
[He nods.] Perfect. Thanks!

[identity profile] politerudeness.livejournal.com 2011-07-12 01:13 am (UTC)(link)
It is no problem. [ a very polite bow ]
ooeeooahah: (Smirk)

[personal profile] ooeeooahah 2011-07-12 01:14 am (UTC)(link)
Let me know when I can help. Perhaps not over the phone, but stop by sometime.

[identity profile] criticizes.livejournal.com 2011-07-12 01:19 am (UTC)(link)
I see. [ He does not understand this awkwardness. ] How'd we know each other?

[identity profile] lunawolves10th.livejournal.com 2011-07-12 01:25 am (UTC)(link)
Not that I am aware of. The only danger is bears and we can make sure we have armed guards.

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2011-07-12 01:31 am (UTC)(link)
[He blushes a bit at that, but he keeps going.] ...W-We were friends. Pretty much from the time I got here. Y-You were here twice before, actually. Once about the same age you are now, I-I guess, and then you actually came back younger, which I-I had never seen before...

[They were very close. Best friends, in Norway's own words. He pauses before actually looking back up at him now.]

Um, my name's Crowe. Calleo Crowe.

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2011-07-12 01:37 am (UTC)(link)
Ha, that's the exact sort of thing they tend to do, too.

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2011-07-12 01:38 am (UTC)(link)
Sure, I will.
