[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.]

[Crowe stands there waiting, leaned against the wall, absently playing with the pamphlet in his hands. He's staring out ahead, lost in thought. He really doesn't think anyone would come.]

[she peeks around the corner, and spots Crowe- he's the only person here, so it must be him...

but she's too shy to approach now. he looks intimidating to her.]

[Crowe now feels he's being watch. He turns to the girl, blinking. Sure, he's a bit on the big side, but his smile is gentle enough.]

O-Oh. Hi there. Did you get one of the pamphlet...?

[facefear.livejournal.com]

Oh... I-I.... [she's clutching it in her hand, but remains partially concealed behind the wall. she gives a tiny nod.] U-uh huh.

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

I know it's pretty overwhelming, but I'm afraid it's all true. But, if there's any questions you might have, I might be able to help...

[he seems nice enough, so she emerges from behind the wall, timidly moving closer.] I-I'd heard about it, but... A-all of this...? R-really?

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

Sorry to say that it is. Not too many good things happen here, I'm afraid. I wish I had some good news to share with you.

[...he's so nice, she relaxes somewhat.] U-um.. I-it's okay, r-right? There's... there's lots of people l-like you and me, and we're all together.

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