I don't know about the rest of you, but I'm not voting. I've torn my ballot up and thrown it away. Enough of this nonsense, yeah? I'm tired of them taking us for fools all the time.

Um. Anyway. Happy new year, everyone. January already... I suppose that means I'll be turning 17 soon.

[Sure, Crowe doesn't trust the ballots and their intent, for obvious reasons. But he's got another problem on his hands - he actually doesn't know what to vote for. He hates Mayfield, but so many of the people here meant a lot to him. He rally isn't sure what he wants to do. So how's he going to deal with this problem? By ignoring it completely! What a great idea.]

[Action:

Today Crowe will be found on his lawn, building a snow fort! It's getting very large and complicated, taking up most of the lawn, and he's building different rooms in it. He's not sure where he's going with it, but keeping him occupied. He's even started taking snow from the other yards on Williams Road to keep this thing going. Care to investigate/help/harass?

Later, in the evening, he'll be sitting inside it, all huddled up in some warm clothes and blankets. He has a lantern and he's reading a book. He built this fort, and now he might as well use it.]

[Have a tiny nation cautiously inspecting the snow fort.]

Hello? Is anyone in there?

[Crowe head pops up over the 4-foot high walls.]

Ah, hi there, Italia. Come on in!

Mr. Crowe~!

[Happily skips on over.]

This is amazing! Did you do all of this yourself?

Date: 2011-01-02 10:28 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com
Yeah. It sort of... took off a lot faster than I thought. Would you like to help?

Date: 2011-01-02 10:31 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] canhaspasta.livejournal.com
Can I? I'll help you decorate it. I'm pretty good at sculpting~

Date: 2011-01-02 10:35 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com
Sure. I'm not too good at that sort of thing, so go right on ahead.

[He's still building some walls inside, and... bench-like snow pile things. Somewhere to sit.]

From: [identity profile] canhaspasta.livejournal.com
Okay~

[He gets to work, sculpting a lovely pasta shell pattern on the walls.]

Did you have a nice Christmas, Mr. Crowe? The town got me a whole lot of delicious pasta.

[So innocent....]

From: [identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com
Ah. I-It was... alright. [No need to bog a child down with what happened.] You got pasta? Really? [Did the town really do something nice for someone?]

Date: 2011-01-02 10:52 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] canhaspasta.livejournal.com
Si~ I got so much pasta, I couldn't even eat it all!

[This is clearly a source of amazement.]

Date: 2011-01-02 11:08 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com
Oh. Well, that doesn't sound too bad, really. Good. Holidays in this town can be.. scary, sometimes. You've got to be careful.

Date: 2011-01-02 11:10 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] canhaspasta.livejournal.com
Really? Is that why everyone was so angry on the tellyphone?

Date: 2011-01-02 11:14 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com
Yeah. But it's all over for now. Things should be back to normal. Normal for this town, anyway.

Date: 2011-01-02 11:16 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] canhaspasta.livejournal.com
......

I don't think this town is bad. I've met a lot of really nice people here.

Date: 2011-01-02 11:24 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com
[How to explain this...] There are a lot of nice people here. I have a lot of friends here. But I guess what I mean is... the people running this place. They can be mean, sometimes, even when we ask them to leave us alone.

Date: 2011-01-03 03:36 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] canhaspasta.livejournal.com
Oh...

I haven't met the people in charge yet. I guess they must be pretty mean to trap everyone here...

Date: 2011-01-03 03:39 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com
.... I have. They're aren't very nice. It's best to keep away from them.

bestwishes: (No need to worry... right?)
From: [personal profile] bestwishes
I uh... kinda already made a vote to go home?

Date: 2011-01-02 11:07 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com
Ah. Well... I just hope nothing bad happens as a result of these votes. But I doubt that, unfortunately.

Date: 2011-01-02 11:13 pm (UTC)
bestwishes: (I warned you...)
From: [personal profile] bestwishes
Yeah, I don't want anything bad going down either... I want to get back out on the road though? I haven't stayed in one place this long since I was a kid...

From: [identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com
My family moved around a lot... I've been in Mayfield almost twice as long as the last place I was living in. I hate this place but... but I don't trust this ballot.

Date: 2011-01-02 11:18 pm (UTC)
bestwishes: (Ehehehe?)
From: [personal profile] bestwishes
I guess just voting to go home was probably a bit hasty then, huh?

Date: 2011-01-02 11:26 pm (UTC)
From: [identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com
If you've already turned it in, then it doesn't matter. I really have no idea where they're going with all this.

Date: 2011-01-02 11:30 pm (UTC)
bestwishes: (That's not any fun...)
From: [personal profile] bestwishes
All I want is to go back and challenge the Unova League?

Date: 2011-01-03 12:16 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com
Most of us just want to go home. But it's not going to be so easy.

Unova League? I'm guessing that's a competition with your pokemon?

Date: 2011-01-03 12:18 am (UTC)
bestwishes: (Wow... I didn't know that.)
From: [personal profile] bestwishes
Yeah, that's right. I'd just gone to the Unova region with mom and Professor Oak before I arrived here, so I figured I'd take the chance to challenge the regional Pokémon League while I was there.

Date: 2011-01-03 12:24 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com
Sounds pretty good. Well, they say when people are sent home from Mayfield, you return to the exact point from when you left. So you wouldn't have missed your chance.

Date: 2011-01-03 12:25 am (UTC)
bestwishes: (That sucks...)
From: [personal profile] bestwishes
I guess, but that still doesn't make just sitting around here any easier?

Date: 2011-01-03 12:38 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com
...

Of course. It really never gets any easier around here, but it's good to know we're not missed back home...

[He smiles. He's sorta forcing it.]

Date: 2011-01-03 12:40 am (UTC)
bestwishes: (I warned you...)
From: [personal profile] bestwishes
Yeah, I guess you're right...

It would be a misstep not to play for the moment.

Date: 2011-01-03 02:31 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com
So I'm guessing you voted? I... can't. I refuse to participate.

Date: 2011-01-03 03:01 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] repeatsalvation.livejournal.com
I did. They're getting comfortable, and they're going to show us something one way or the other. They're bragging. And I intend to take advantage of it.

Then that is your choice. You've done more then most could expect from anyone to try and find information on our jail.

Date: 2011-01-03 03:04 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com
It doesn't matter how we vote anyway. They're sure to do something terrible no matter what.

.... Maybe. I'm just sick of their games. I don't want to be a part of it anymore.

Date: 2011-01-03 03:19 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] repeatsalvation.livejournal.com
No. It doesn't. They'll do as they always have done. But I need to know what it is they plan to say if we ask to go home.

I would believe all humans would be. You can only take so much abuse. All of you are wearing down from it.

As am I.

Date: 2011-01-03 03:30 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com
They're probably just make you think you went home. Or separate the town between those who want to leave and those who want to stay. Who knows. They always manage to surprise us.

You may not be human, but that doesn't mean you're not sick of getting tortured all the time.

Date: 2011-01-03 04:19 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] repeatsalvation.livejournal.com
Possible. But I need to see regardless. To see what move they'll make next.

No. And I had never expected to find beings that could manage to do so. I am both enraged and fascinated by it.

Date: 2011-01-03 04:44 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] perfektsymmetry.livejournal.com
I wonder if we'll see different results. Those who voted versus those of us who didn't. I wonder if there will even be a difference, or if it's a matter of majority rules.

Mm. Mayfield is good like that, isn't it. [He laughs dryly.]

Date: 2011-01-03 06:47 am (UTC)
From: [identity profile] mayfield-mods.livejournal.com
Wow!

I guess that's the thanks a guy gets.

Date: 2011-01-03 12:36 pm (UTC)

[A-ARE YOU SERIOUS]

....Haven't we been over this? I'm not getting involved in anything you're doing.
