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?]

Oh, ah, on the radio. After the new year's broadcast, there was... a strange broadcast. It was the end of a famous film from this time, called It's A Wonderful Life. And at the end there was some garbled voice playing over it. I was trying to figure it all out.

No problem, I'm on a slowatus myself.

Oh? What is a "fi-lim"?

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

Ah, well... Oh, have you seen the theater here? Or the drive-in? Or the television? It's what they play on those...

[bravabarber.livejournal.com]

Ah, I get it now, it's like a play, si?

So, there was a strange play on the Tee-vee, as well as a mysterious message at the end? Could it be from a fellow prisoner, perhaps?

I think it was from Lucy. While she's trapped here, she's definitely not our our side. She's one who, um, causes a lot of the misery in this town.

[bravabarber.livejournal.com]

Lucia? If the identity of our captor is known, why hasn't some of the town's many heroes confronted her? That's in their job description, after all!

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

Yes, well... Easier said than done. She's very powerful and not on our side. She could kill you or drone you, a-and there's nothing you can do to stop her.

[bravabarber.livejournal.com]

Cielo! No wonder why people have yet to take action...

...but enough of Lucia Smith for now.

You mentioned your birthday, si? You are growing up to be a man, signore Crowe! Tell me, when shall you turn 18?

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

AH, I suppose? O-on January 23rd.

Good, then we shall CELEBRATE! I shall get the wine and ale, and we shall toast to you, your first steps into manhood, and the future!
