Ah, happy "new" year, Mayfield. I-I'm glad I'm back to being myself, o-or more like everyone recognize that I'm me again. Did anyone catch that radio broadcast? It was on late. I-I was wondering if anyone else could make out what was said at the end, there, or what you thought about it.

Speaking of the new year, my birthday is coming up near the end o-of the month. I'll be 18. How many people here have turned 18 while here, and have woken up as an "adult" soon after? I've been wondering if that's what will happen to me.

Um. I've done a lot of baking during that whole, um, previous incident. I really didn't have much else to do... So if anyone's interested in coming over to my place and having some, feel free too.

[This is Crowe-speak for "I'm lonely, please come hang out with me." Anyone is welcome to stop by his house, where he'll be readying tea and cookie for visitors.

Later, Crowe will be found at his usual haunt, the rec center. Today he'll be borrowing the gymnastic balance beams. He's no gymnast, but he's got great balance and speed. He'll be running up and down the beam, going frontwards, backwards and sideways, trying to go as fast as he can without falling off. He does pretty well but he does have the occasional slip up or fall to the mats. Care to pop over?]

It did sound very distorted. Like... Like it was trying to come through, or maybe be covered up. Hard to tell. But yeah, it sounds like you heard a bit more than I did. I always wonder what they're trying to prove with these cryptic messages.

I wish I could have heard what the rest said, but it was just too garbled. It makes me nervous that the most important bits were the inaudible ones.

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

Well, leave it to Mayfield to keep us in the dark, eh? Still, I'll make note of what you think said. Thanks.

[kinship]

It's my pleasure.

I'm Cain, by the way, it's nice to meet you.

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

Ah, likewise. I'm Crowe.

[kinship]

I'm sorry I couldn't help more, Mr. Crowe.

sorry for the delay! been sick ><

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

No, it's fine. Anything helps. I-I like to keep notes on this sort of thing. You never know when it might come in handy.

no worries! i live off backtags

It's probably a very good thing to do, I've been documenting what I can as well.

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

Considering how long I've been here, too... I-I don't know if there's many left here that have been through a lot of the things I have. So a-at least there's a record of it, in case any clues or similarities pop up.

[kinship]

Oh? How long have you been here?

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

Ah... It will be two years this March.

[kinship]

[He's stunned into silence for a moment, he didn't realise people could be here that long...]

You must really miss your home.

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

Y-Yeah, I do. Ha, I've been here long enough now that Mayfield has stopped sending me things in the mail from home. I-I guess they ran out.

[kinship]

Don't give up hope, though. I know it's been a long time, but we'll find out way out!

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

I-I'm trying. Hope is about all I have left a-at this point.

[kinship]

Hope can be a strong thing to have left, so don't ever say it's 'all'.
