[Phone call, filtered from NPCs:]

Homecoming, eh? Amazing how fast the summer goes in this town... This was my second one here, too.

Ah, right. The purpose of this call. Um... does anyone out there teach piano? Outside of school, I mean. I-I think I need... tutoring I guess. Um, I don't know what I could offer in return. Maybe chores or something? Let me know.

---

[Action 1: Crowe is in the park, kicking a soccer ball around. There wasn't a whole lot of interest in blitzball, sadly, but he figured there would be more footballers around. Right now he's trying to juggle the ball with his knees, feet, shoulder and head. He's pretty good at it, having been practicing since he was a small child. Care to join or bug him?]

( Action 2, locked to 846 Goldberg )

After last week's truthful phone call, Crowe's daring to venture outside again. He really hates wasting the nice summer weather, after all. So it's time to get back to life as usual in Mayfield. As usual as it ever gets, anyway.

A) How does Crowe vent frustration? SPORTS! Well, in this case, martial arts practice. Crowe's been training religiously in Mayfield in his long stint here, and has had a few different trainers. Today, he'll be teaching the boxing equipment a lesson it'll never forget, complete with some yelling as he throws some punches and kicks. Who knew Crowe had it in him? That meek personality hides a fierce fighter underneath. He tries to go to the rec center just as it opens, hoping there will be less people for him to bother with all the noise. But there's bound to be some other early birds there, right? Maybe some who want to see what's going on, or maybe even spar.

B) Later that day, exhausted from his workout, Crowe heads to his usual hangout, the park. He's working at a picnic table in the shade, and in front of him lies his dozens of newly-developed photos. Crowe takes pictures of all non-droned people in town, and has been doing so for months. He's looking through the new ones, pictures spread out on the table that anyone passing by could see. You might be in there, or someone you know. He has his old albums there with him too, and is sorting them all away. His iPhone is sitting on the bench next to him, quietly playing music. Some of the older ones he flips through, looking over the ones of his now droned friends sadly. Once in awhile, a breeze picks a photo or two up, and he has to chase after. Maybe it blows your way?

Tucked away in one of the albums is also a piece of paper that you might find him looking over. Ciel gave it to him months ago, and he's still trying to figure out what it could mean.

[Crowe's getting sick of being depressed thanks to this town. Before he got here he was a bit more easy-going and pleasant. But since everything he's gone through here, he's become miserable, despite how he might act outwardly. Sure, he'll never stop being homesick, there's a murderer living in his house, and he spends every day getting his ass kicked by his combat trainer amongst everything else. But that doesn't mean that every once in awhile, Calleo Crowe can't have a good day!

Then suddenly that combat trainer gives him a week off and he has no idea what to do with himself. He remembers how mad Jecht was when Crowe asked for some time off, so it's a bit odd that Jecht would suddenly take off like that. Better not question it though.

So, what will Crowe be doing with vacation? Anything he damn well pleases. He really misses going on hikes and climbs and other outdoorsy things, and since Mayfield lacks wilderness he'll be spending almost all of his time at the park, as usual. Things he'll be up to:

- climbing up trees in the park. He was always good at climbing, and he's astounded by how much stronger he's gotten since he started his training. It's almost effortless. He'll be looking for the tallest trees in town to conquered. Maybe one's in your backyard.

- playing basketball. He's never really tried it, and he doesn't really know what he's doing. Considering how tall he his, he figures he should give it a try. By, he can't do much more than practice freethrows and jumpshots alone. He manages to actually jump up and dunk a few on occasion, looking pleased with himself. Care to join/mock/interrupt?

- hanging out at the library, doing his best to get books on detectives and investigation, both fiction and non-fiction. It's hard to find anything in the library since it tailors itself to each person's stereotype, so he'll be looking for help.

- ever the night owl, Crowe's out on the town after dark too. He usually doesn't stay at his own home, feeling way too uncomfortable to sleep there thanks to Mukuro and the droned Sniper. Mukuro was acting like a drone - like a very, very weird drone - but Crowe wasn't buying it. And Sniper trying to act like his dad was almost worse, somehow. So, Crowe will be camping out at the park. He's got himself a small tent, sleeping bag and lantern. His cat is curled up next to him on a pillow as he reads his library books.

- and of course, your papers are always delivered on a timely rate every morning!

During all of these though, he seems a bit distracted. He's got a lot on his mind lately and often drifts into thought. Sometimes the basketballs are thrown way over the hoop, or a newspaper hits your window. Or possibly you.

Feel free to bug him whenever!

[Voice post to one and all!]

Ah! Hello Mayfield! I hope you're all well. I uh, I just had a quick question. Is there a football team in town? Ah, the soccer type of football, I mean. Whether it's a school league or a local one...? If there isn't, would anyone be interested in forming one? I'd be glad to help teach those who might be interested! I uh, I suppose we'll need enough for at least two teams, since we can't play against other towns....

Uh, anyway, I hope I can get some information. It... it would be nice to having something normal to do around here... thank you for your time!

It gets harder to believe, but be honest

If the sun don't shine tomorrow, we'll survive
