I've been following the target for a week now, and I have some information for you all. Kay, Zidane, I can talk to you both at lunch or after school sometime. I can stop by sometime and speak to you in person, um, your Majesty.



[Action: Crowe's been in a miserable mood the last few days. If anyone inquires about it, he'll wave it off, though. But in an effort to cheer himself up - and to head off any shenanigans Mayfield has in store for the fourteeth - Crowe will be out on the town today handing out Valentine's gifts to everyone. He'll be walking around the downtown area shops and the park. Even if he doesn't know you, he'll pass one off to you with a smile and a "Happy Valentine's Day". It's just 4 small heart-shaped sugar cookies, wrapped in red cellophane. Enjoy your sweets, Mayfield!]

Well, I'm assuming it'll get bad. They don't usually miss a holiday.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

Though try what?

I don't even know where to start anymore. Maybe find a place to hide if there is even a hope of that.

[flameyedhunter.livejournal.com]

"Yeah." [she sighs and looks at Crowe.]

"What's wrong with you? You're forcing yourself, somehow. I can't tell what about, though."

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

[He worried if he's really that transparent. Protip: he is.]

Ah. It's nothing, really.

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

All we can do is try to find out more about this place before we know what kind of move to make. I'm... working on it.

[flameyedhunter.livejournal.com]

"Well, you helped me. I want to help you, even if I can only listen. So tell me." [she gives him her best stare.]

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

That's good...

I really don't think I am going to be much help there but, if you get any information I'd love to record it. Maybe I can make sure the right people get it.

[weiss-tank.livejournal.com]

You're welcome Crowe.

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

[He tries to smile a bit.] Really, there's nothing anyone can do about things Mayfield does so... i-it's okay.

[flameyedhunter.livejournal.com]

"I disagree with that, but I see your point. Just don't... give up on yourself. That's what stupid people do. And you're not. You're still alive, and you're still capable of thinking. As long as those two things are there, you can win."

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

That's a lot of help, actually. People come and go all the time, having records of what's happening here is really important.

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

[He thinks it over, and nods a little. Mayfield is jading him, and even though he has a hard time believing in that, he knows she's right.]

I-I know. Thanks.

[pants-yourmove.livejournal.com]

Well, you know where I keep them if the worse happens. I'll continue to keep up what I can. Everyone else records things a bit better than I do but I'll still try.

[gandere]

Why would you give it to someone you don't even know though?

[She's not too terribly offended by it. Just suspicious.]

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

Just trying to spread some holiday cheer, really. Mayfield gets a little... hectic around holidays, so it's nice for people to enjoy themselves while they can.

[gandere]

Oh... well thank you. May I inquire as to what you mean about hectic around the holidays?

[And another gift to give to her sister.]

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

Ah. You're new here, yeah? Mayfield likes to, um, do some unpredictable things sometimes, usually around holidays.

[flameyedhunter.livejournal.com]

"Let's go do something fun. You pick it. A guy who's been here a while probably knows SOME fun things to do. Even if it's just throwing rocks at something just to watch it break."

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

Well, there's too much snow around for most sports, but I think the basketball court is cleared off.

[Good luck playing against a guy who's about a foot and a half taller than you.]

[gandere]

Is my novice manner really that obvious?

Unpredictable things? Do you have any examples?

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

Ah, well, for Thanksgiving, for example, everyone got turkey dinners that were... poisoned, came to life, all sorts of things. O-On Christmas, people's Christmas wishes were granted in the most twisted of ways...

[gandere]

So holidays are a time to watch out for things. Thanks for the advice. I better make sure my sister doesn't get into any trouble. I'm sure she'll enjoy these too.

[perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com]

It's not always holidays, but most of the time.

I hope so. Enjoy. Ah, I'm Crowe, by the way. Nice to meet you.

[flameyedhunter.livejournal.com]

"All right! Let's do that!"

[Shana will foul him a lot, especially if he dunks on her. She's athletic and strong, but the height advantage, and the fact that Crowe is also in excellent shape will inevitably tell.]

[gandere]

A continuous pattern like that is always something to be wary of. I really ought to try to get to learn more of this place's history while I am incapable of doing much else.

My name is Rin Tohsaka. It is a pleasure to meet you as well. Well, as much of a pleasure as being here can have.
