[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!]

[ KID, GET OFF MY LAWN/ROOFTOP DAT THREE BRANCH

which is to say that Japan comes home to seeing a guy sitting on a high tree branch, recognizes him and screams ]


C-crowe-kun, what are you doing?! That is dangerous!

[ACK! Well he we doing fine, and then you yelled at him, Japan. He wobbles a little on the branch, but grabs the tree trunk.]

O-Oh, Japan! I-It's fine, I'm okay!

[ puts his hands on his hips, looking like he's about to say "You get down here this instant, young man!" but he doesn't. instead, he says ] Are you certain? I believe it would be best for you to come down before something unfortunate should happen.

[Crowe scratches the back of his head, a little embarrassed.] Ah, I'm sure, really! But, um. Hang on.

[Crowe doesn't get much opportunity to show off. He puts his camera back in its bag, then proceeds to climb down the tree, jumping down from branch to branch with precision. One might think he's a gymnast. He should have been.

He lands down next to Japan, dusting his hands.]
Sorry about that. I-I was only taking photos. There's a nice view up there.

[ He for a moment just stands there comprehending what he just saw in sheer awe... before snapping back to earth with a shake of the head ]

N-not at all...! I apologize for my outburst. It's an instinct, of sorts, of a concerned old man who cannot bring himself to simply watch younger people today get themselves involved in things that might potentially be dangerous...

[He smiles now. Japan, so adorable.] I understand. Ah, would I be able to take a photo of you? I keep a photo journal of all the people in town who aren't droned.

[identity profile] politerudeness.livejournal.com 2011-07-11 09:13 pm (UTC)(link)
...Take a photo- of me? Uwah...

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2011-07-11 09:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh. W-Well, it's not necessary, if um, you're photo-shy or something.

[identity profile] politerudeness.livejournal.com 2011-07-11 09:23 pm (UTC)(link)
...I am a bit flattered, to be honest... to think that someone would wish to do such a thing...

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2011-07-11 09:26 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah, well, of course! [he smiles brightly, and raises up the camera.] Smile!

[ pause ]

...Would a peace sign be acceptable instead?

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2011-07-11 10:08 pm (UTC)(link)
That's fine, too.

[Get ready, Japan. Snap!]

[ 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?

[He nods.] Perfect. Thanks!

It is no problem. [ a very polite bow ]
