perfectsymmetry: (shy look)

67 (forward dated to Monday)

[Desipte his attitude the last week, Crowe seems to be coming around to himself again this week. He's less quiet or short with people, and is back to trying to help people once again. After all, with his detective days behind him, he needs something else to distract himself with. Recently, it seemed that time again in town where a lot of new people came trickling in. While part of his still didn't want to bother with most people, it wasn't *their* fault they were now here. Once upon a time, he was just as lost and confused as they were. Might as well help the newbies get acclimated. And maybe he feels just slightly guilty for last week's pickpocket adventures, and wishes to make up for it.

Crowe's been around long enough to easily recognize the new faces. So during school this week, anyone he spots looking new will be slipped pamphlet in their desk, their locker, or their bag when they're not looking. You probably won't catch him doing it - he's really good at this sort of thing. There's a small note paperclipped to each one as well:

"I'm afraid to say all the information in here is correct. It's a lot to take in. I will be waiting outside the school gates after classes are done if you have any questions. My name is Crowe."

Even without leaving a description, he's hard to miss - a tall, broad teenager with silver and blue hair waits patiently, holding one of the pamphlets, to see if anyone comes by.]

Yeah. That is the good thing about this place. A lot of great people, who are willing to help.

That's a pretty long time. I guess that means finding a way out won't be easy...

[tosses his head in frustration:]
So some of the inmates have superpowers. Lovely. One of my roommates is -- a-- merman.

Most do, actually, from my experience. Sometimes I feel like I'm the only one without them.

A merman? But... [He's trying to picture this.]

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2011-04-11 11:35 pm (UTC)(link)
Unfortunately. But, we have to keep looking. Eventually we'll find it.

[identity profile] tender-crook.livejournal.com 2011-04-12 12:02 am (UTC)(link)
Well. Fish man. Fish thing.

[identity profile] biophases.livejournal.com 2011-04-12 12:11 am (UTC)(link)
Well, it's just one town, right? Surely there's some way out...

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2011-04-12 12:16 am (UTC)(link)
Well, that's one thing about Mayfield. It's, um, diverse. I've known robots, werecreatures, personified nations... Ah, don't ask me to explain that one. I still can't.

[Kurt just stares.]
Well, great.

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2011-04-12 01:05 am (UTC)(link)
Sorry. Um. Well, if there's any good news, we usually have long stretches where nothing happens. Just, um, school, work, that sort of thing.

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2011-04-12 01:13 am (UTC)(link)
It's all self-contained. Everything loops around, so if you just walk one way, you circle around. I know somewhere there has to be a weakness, people get in somehow... we just haven't found it yet.

What if you went up? You know, into space?

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2011-04-12 04:22 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah... you know, I don't think anyone has really tried? But there is some people in town with things that fly, I've seen them around. I'm sure if they could get out that way, they would have done so. Still, makes me wonder what would happen...

[identity profile] biophases.livejournal.com 2011-04-13 03:11 am (UTC)(link)
Well, usually I have a ship, but I haven't been able to summon it since I got here. That's normal, though, right?

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2011-04-13 04:01 am (UTC)(link)
A ship? Like... a spaceship?

[identity profile] biophases.livejournal.com 2011-04-14 06:55 am (UTC)(link)
Exactly! Though it can be used for intra-planetary travel, as well.

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2011-04-14 11:48 am (UTC)(link)
Wow. That's really amazing! Something like that is just science fiction where I'm from...

[identity profile] biophases.livejournal.com 2011-04-14 09:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, really? I'm pretty certain that they have similar technology on the Earth I came from. At least, people can get into space...

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2011-04-14 11:13 pm (UTC)(link)
Well, I mean, sure, people have been to space. But people don't have their own ships, generally.

[identity profile] biophases.livejournal.com 2011-04-15 12:45 am (UTC)(link)
Oh, right. Well, most people back home don't have them, either--but I needed one to get to Earth!

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2011-04-15 12:49 pm (UTC)(link)
O-Oh, so you're not even from Earth? Then I guess we really don't come from the same place then. But that's pretty amazing. Can I ask where you're from?

[identity profile] biophases.livejournal.com 2011-04-15 07:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, Mars! But I had been on Earth awhile before I got here, too.

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2011-04-15 10:25 pm (UTC)(link)
Incredible! What's Mars like...?

[identity profile] biophases.livejournal.com 2011-04-15 11:45 pm (UTC)(link)
It's...a little different. But I like Earth--even this Earth.

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2011-04-16 12:19 pm (UTC)(link)
It must be great to travel between planets, though. I can only imagine what it must be like.
