[Since the big April Fool's Day reveal, Crowe has been in a pretty rotten mood. Most of the time, he just goes to school, not really talking to anyone or paying attention, and going as far as to avoid people completely. During the whole debacle he was killed twice, and he shot two people as well - one of those being his "father" who had also gunned him down outside the highway diner. To make matters worse, our intrepid wannabe investigator pushed himself so hard to find clues or be of any help, and completely failed to find anything. On top of that, the whole thing was a ruse anyway, and now Crowe feels like there's nothing anyone can ever do to get ahead in this town. Clues and information cannot be trusted since Mayfield can so easily manipulate everyone in town. He feels more useless than ever.

Fine then, he thinks. If this is the case, he might as well stick to what he's good at, or at least what he knows. He doesn't consider him to be a good thief, but he's better at it than he thinks...]



[Crowe's up to a lot the next few days. You'll find him:

A) Skipping classes and curiously lingering in the lunch rooms and hallways of Mayfield High. He hasn't practiced pickpocketing in ages, and wants to get back into the habit. Although rusty, he's good at it. He'll be aiming for drones, students and teachers alike, but outright avoiding friends. He won't be going for anything too big, just watches, wallets, easily accessed jewelry, things like that. Of course, with all the new people incoming recently, he might not realize you're a drone, and today you might be missing something from your pocket or schoolbag.

After classes, he'll be out on a parkbench sorting through what he has, mostly looking uninterested in it... unless he happened to find something valuable or different. He's making no effort to hide this, either. Feel free to approach.

B) At the rec center, giving the boxing equipement one hell of a beating. Thanks to constant practice, he's actually getting pretty good, but he looks pretty exhausted. He uses a strange combination of tawkwondo moves and out and out vicious street brawling. Sparring partners, anyone?

C) Sitting up in a tree in the park, reading a novel. A white tomcat lounges with him. The trees are only budding, so he can be seen easily up there. Now that the weather's warming up again, this is where he spends any free time he manages to find. Occasionally he stops to look at and fiddle with a small metal pendant on a chain he's using as a bookmark. Strange for someone so young to look nostalgic, but that's the only way to describe the look he's giving it.

Ah! Yeah, that's it! I must have dropped it at school or something! Can I have it back?

[He hands it over.]

That's an interesting card. It looks just like you.

Thanks, you're a lifesaver. I don't know what I would have done if I'd lost this!

[Yuna smiles and takes the card, hugging it to her chest as she lets out a relieved sigh.]

And that's because it is me!

[OK, maybe he feels just a little guilty now.]

Sent to you from home, I take it?

[identity profile] gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com 2011-04-05 05:36 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah. I'm pretty sure only I can use it anyway, but it'd still be a big problem if I ever lost it.

Use it? What do you mean? It almost looks like a tarot card.

[identity profile] gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com 2011-04-05 07:54 pm (UTC)(link)
You wanna see?

[She looks totally excited about this.]

[identity profile] gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com 2011-04-06 06:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Okay, here we go. Adeat!

[There's a bright flash of light, and suddenly Yuna is wearing the outfit on the card. She also has a pistol in her hand, which she twirls around and then casually points at Crowe.]

Pretty cool, huh?

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2011-04-07 01:51 am (UTC)(link)
Wow! Yeah, it is. Like something from a comic book.

[identity profile] gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com 2011-04-07 02:09 am (UTC)(link)
I know, right? It shoots magic bullets and everything!

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2011-04-07 02:26 am (UTC)(link)
Something like that should come in handy here. You know there's a shooting range, right? In the rec center?

[identity profile] gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com 2011-04-07 11:01 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, Garvi showed me when I showed up here. I like to go over there and practice sometimes.

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2011-04-07 05:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah, you know Garvi then? Yeah, I'm there sometimes too, but I'm still learning.

[identity profile] gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com 2011-04-07 05:04 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, yeah, he's my new fake dad.

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2011-04-07 08:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Ah, I'm sorry, I didn't even get your name yet. My name's Crowe.

[identity profile] gonnamarrydaddy.livejournal.com 2011-04-07 08:15 pm (UTC)(link)
Oh, it's Yuna. Nice to meet you, Crowe!

[She twirls her gun into its holster and holds out her hand for a shake.]
