[It's been obvious lately, since after Christmas, that Crowe hadn't been feeling like himself. He's been depressed ever since, doing his best to not show it. But today, Mayfield has decided to cheer him up, it seems. Suddenly there's another Christmas tree in his house this morning. And under that tree is a 2009 Ducati 1198 Superbike. He stares at it for a long time, rereading the note, looking it over... Santa? No. He *knows* this is from home. His birthday present from his dad. This was what he was promised for when he turned 17, and it's shown up here!

Crowe pushes it outside, pops on the helmet that was included, and rides off! There's going to be some problems though. Crowe was still learning how to ride back home, which was over 10 months ago now. So not only is he a newbie on a very fast bike, he's rusty. Better look out because he's coming your way! He'll be making awkward starts and stops, shaking and stalling out... but he manages to stay upright at least. But no one noticed him knocking himself into that mailbox, did they...? It doesn't seem to bother him though, as anyone who listens can hear him laughing. Feel free to stop him - maybe he's taking a breather, or maybe he almost ran you over. Oops. He'll be sorry, really. He'll also be stopping by his friends' houses to show off, and making an extra special stop at 1489 Kramden Road to pick up a certain special someone.]

[He brakes and turns back to you, taking off his helmet.]

Ah, Ken! Sorry!

Eh? Crowe? I thought that was you! [Don't worry, he's recovered from his near heart attack]

Where on earth did you get that! [Ken walks over to investigate the Ducati]

[He grins ear to ear.]

The town just sent it to me as a Christmas gift. But if you ask me... this came from home. From my dad.

Man you're lucky. [Ken wasn't as happy with his gifts, but he knew they could have been worse]

Hey hey! Once you're comfortable on that thing we can race! [This prospect he is super excited about]

I still can't believe it. I'm waiting for the catch.

I would love that! But, ah, I still need a lot of practice. I was still learning last I was home, and that was a long time ago now.

Well if there's anything you can't remember, just ask ok? Fuck that is such a sweet bike.

[He's slightly jealous, can you tell?]

I will. This thing is almost too much more me.

Once I get used to it, I'll let you take it for a spin.

Really?! That would be amazing! [Have an over excited grin]

Don't worry Crowe, you'll get used to it soon!

[identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com 2011-01-08 04:10 am (UTC)(link)
I hope so. I guess I better get going then, eh? Got to keep practicing.

[identity profile] weiss-tank.livejournal.com 2011-01-08 04:11 am (UTC)(link)
Alright! Just try and stick to the road next time eh?

See you later Crowe!

Ha, sorry about that again. I'll do better next time. See you! [And off he rides! A bit straighter this time, too]
