[Residents of 1247 Williams may notice the car is gone, and it's not dear old not-dad who's driving it about the neighborhood like a maniac today. Actually, it's Crowe driving it about the neighborhood like your grandma on Sunday.

He had a few weeks of driver's ed back home, and studied up on it while here in Mayfield. But he's never been behind the wheel before. And, well, being Crowe, he doesn't want to be a bother and make anyone have to teach him, so he's decided to get some practice. How hard could it be? It seemed simple enough, right?

Yeah, right.

It's not going so well for him, but he's not giving up yet! He can be found in several places today driving around town:

- blocking up traffic driving SUPER SLOW. He's too afraid to take it over 25 or so. When someone honks at him, he makes a squeaking noise, speeds up for a few seconds before slowing down again.
- taking a turn too sharp or too wide, and running into various things, or....people?! Look out, innocent bystanders! He'll miss the occasional traffic sign, too focused on driving.
- The family car has seen better days since dear ol' Milkman Dan has gotten into town, and occasionally there's some malfunctioning. Maybe the bumper as fallen off, perhaps the radiator has started to spout steam. Nothing to panic over, right? Except this is Crowe. Of course there's some panicking.
- attempting to parallel park. OH THE HUMANITY. Pray that's not your car he's parking by.
- a surprise empty whiskey bottle has rolled out from under the seat and lodged itself under the pedals. From within the car can be heard "OhGodOhGodOhGod---!" Better get out of his way, Mayfield!]

[Private to the residents of 1247 Williams]

Ah, everyone here is alright with having a pet, right? No one's allergic to cats? I promise I'll take care of him, you won't even know he's here.... he seems to be the outdoorsy type anyway, I'm having a hard time keeping him in the house for too long.

[Call filtered to all non-drones]

Let's see... food, toys, litter...what else...

A-ah! Hello everyone. Do we have any veterinarians out there who aren't drones? I sort of... came into possession of a pet recently, and I'd like to get him checked out. All the necessary shots and the like, that sort of thing? I should have enough money to cover it all from my job.

And, uh, is there anything else I should know about taking care of a cat outside the usual? This is the first time I've ever had one.

[A contemplative call is put forth to all non-drones.]

...Several people here have told me I need to relax more. [sigh] I can't argue with that. Mayfield's been... stressful. But that's just the thing. How can you relax here? Knowing that anytime, God know what might happen to us. I feel if I slack off, I'm only hurting myself. I need to be ready for anything... right?

But I know being so tightly wound lately isn't helping me much, either. [This was almost mumbled, as if he doesn't want to admit it.] So Mayfield, I'm asking you, what do you do to relax here? School being over will be a big help for now, but I still have so much going on...

Oh, while I'm at it... I was wondering if there was anyone out there who did, um, investigative research. Detective work. That sort of thing? Because... I was wondering if anyone out there who did would be willing to take on a student for the summer.

[He sounds nervous at the end there. After all, he's forsaking his criminal heritage to possibly work with the other side of the law. What would his parents think?]

[Filtered call to Jecht]
Ah. C-coach, I was wondering if it was okay if I took a week or two off from training. I am not quitting, I promise that. But... I need some decompression time.
