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!]

AH, w-well, you see, inside is some film. Y-You point the camera at whatever you want to take a picture of, and h-hit this button. Once you've filled up the film, you get it developed on paper into photos. Um. That involves chemicals and what's called a dark room, but I'm not good on the specifics.

That's amazing. How long does it take to get the finished portrait? And how many portraits can a 'film' hold?

[He kind of wishes that he had something like this back home. That way he could have had pictures of his family. It wasn't as if he could have pulled a painting off the wall when they were fleeing from Godwin's men.]

Some rolls of film can hold 12, some 24. Ah, usually it's just a few days from dropping it off at the photo store until they're done. Where I'm from, I'm more used to some instant results...

[He fishes his iPhone out of his pocket, turns on the camera, snaps a photo and shows it to him.] There you are.

[Okay then, have a picture of the prince looking kind of confused.]

That's incredible! Is it magic?

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

[He smiles.] No, just technology quiet a few decades ahead of Mayfield. Mayfield is from the late 1950s, but I got here from 2010.

[The Prince gives him an embarrassed smile.]

I'm not even from this world....

[And then finally remembers his manners]

I'm sorry, I didn't even introduce myself, did I? My name is Freyjadour. Freyjadour Falenas.

But, please, feel free to call me Frey.

You're not the first person I've had to explain it to, don't worry.

Ah, I'm Crowe. Calleo Crowe. Nice to meet you.

[mercyasdeep.livejournal.com]

This world is so different from mine, that sometimes I have a hard time adjusting.

It's nice to meet you as well, Crowe.
