Location: Truesdale Inventer's Quarters
July 18, 1622 Open to anybody.
As if Truesdale couldn't get any more chaotic. It was around 3 PM by the height of the sun and this young adult was getting bored and restless. He rocked back and forth on his short feet as he crossed his arms, put his bag down, picked it up again, and slung it over his shoulder. He rolled his shoulders, letting his brown jacket move a bit in the sunlight.
"IS THERE ANYTHING THAT A BORED REDHEAD COULD DO AROUND HERE?" He pretty much yelled out, but then, oh dear, looks like someone left their automated carriage open. A sneaky smile spread across his face and with a loud snort, he ran over to it with unmatched speed and hopped in it.
"Where's the 'go' button?" He adjusted the stick on the side and found himself rolling down backwards... down a hill. Um um um um so what should he do? Crash just stared at the controls, flipping some switches, adjusting the clutch again.
And then he crashed backwards into a tree.
"... Oops. I guess that's why they chose my name." He gave a sheepish grin.

Thorn had been working that day and looked outside the Quarters to see what in the bloody blue blazes was going on, seeing the large mess now piled up against the tree he raised an eye brow at the red headed boy. Man, and Saul thought HE was clumsy.
"Are you alright lad?"

Crash crawled out of the smoldering wreck of the vehicle he had hijacked, plopping on the ground and rubbing his head. Well, that ended just beautifully, now what? Would he have to pay for the wreckage now? Hopefully not, he wasn't the richest hero. Crash didn't even hear Thorn coming up and snapped his head only when he noticed a shadow.
"Huh?" He blinked, before standing up. "It was totally an accident! I pressed the wrong button. I meant to chase this... thing up ahead!" What a lie.

Thorn gave him a eye brow raise not sure of to believe him or not, he then looked to the wreck. That was going to need cleaning up before it's owner got back.
"Well, not me you have to explain to." he commented looking at him. He turned his head to see if anyone else was coming.

Crash hopped out of the vehicle, surveying the damage. The entire back was dented and smashed in, and the motorized vehicle probably couldn't move anymore. Crash tilted his neck to pop his vertebrae, before turning on his heels to grin at Thorn.
"Which means I don't have to. Exceeeept..." He scratched his chin with one finger and turned a quarter of the way. Some police were running towards them. Which meant they would demand what was going on.
"Actually I was trying to move the motorized vehicle. It was in a 'No Parking Zone.'"

Anita had been present in the area, as well, hoping to find some materials for Milo to shine up and later use in the shoes that they make. It was not much of a secret that they sometimes used scrap metal to make the shoes look more appealing, but no one really cared - quality work where it was hard to tell!
Of course she'd gone running as fast as she could with a dress when she had heard that loud sound, stopping near where Crash and Thorn were... with a destroyed car that the latter was asking the other about. She wanted to put her hand over her face, but that would dirty up her glasses.
"Well, explain that to the police coming, I don't know if they would accept that." This was a mess. She hadn't actually seen Crash crash, but he looked a little silly. Maybe he had knocked a screw loose. Possibly literally- nah, he looked human enough.

Thorn would have proceeded to place his hand over his face but his nose was in the way. that wouldn't help anything at the moment.
"The Ma'dam has a point....How on earth did you even get that thing to move? don't those normally have bricks stopping the wheels? or breaks?" Thorn asked in udder confusion.

Crash attracted a young girl's attention, and he would have gone all 'rose petal kiss the hand' appeal but he was waaay too hyper to do that. Plus she looked like a minor. that would be creepy. Anywhoodle, Crash looked back, as some of the police came up. Granted, they would notice he IS part of the explosives crew.
He wrecked the vehicle with a tree instead of an explosion. Granted, now that the crowd has come, now he had to explain what was going on. Nah, he didn't want to explain that he was bored and climbed in because he's Crash.
"Welp, I have to explain anyway." And then Thorn spoke up. His face fell, his eyes blanked out. Bricks? He forgot to check the bricks! "Holy Moley! I BROKE PHYSICS!" He threw his hands up in the air excitedly.
That is before running like a looney up the street, looking down where the carriage was once, and then running back. With the brick.
"I think it was on the other side, Hahaha!" He seemed... excited. While everybody was pinching the bridge of their nose or facepalming Captain Picard style.

And Anita was a minor. If Crash had attempted that, considering that she had just met him, she would have grabbed the nearest blunt object and threatened to bean him over the head with it. But since he didn't, she looked back at where the police were coming, and then at the man in front of her with the wrecked vehicle.
"Breaks, I think," Anita said, but she didn't sound too sure about it. How was she supposed to know, anyways?
"..." She looked up at Thorn, an 'is this guy for real'? expression on her face. Crash seemed sweet enough, just a little odd. "Erm... is that not something to look at before you start driving?"
Hopefully for him he had a good explanation for the police once they got here.

Thorn just stared at this bizarre sight slowly looked back at the lady with a very confused look himself. "I believe so.." he replied also sounding rather confused, or was it that his brain was just now realizing it was a girl standing near and taking with him.
"Do you know this lad?" Thorn asked pointing to Crash with a slight look, he was slightly assuming since the young miss seemed to have known him more then he did.

Crash decided that he was going to keep the brick this time, grinning like a total tool as the police came up and asked what happened. Even if Anita spoke up about checking it BEFORE he got in the car, but he was too forgetful for that.
"Hey! It was a fatal motorized vehicular accident due to poorly placed bricks and positions!" He spoke up, mainly addressing everyone. " Well I mean fatal to the vehicle... but I think it can be fixed!"
Crash looked pretty cheerful about it. But it seems he got away from it so far. Man, that mischievous nature can really get on people's bad side, especially in Dula, but... well, screw Dula!
"So who are you two? Never seen you lot around. Name's Crash McKee, demolition expert and arrow toting superhero!" God save us all from him.

Yes Thorn. It was a girl, but an underage girl. Don't go cheating on Sarina now with a younger girl! She might make you wear another dress. Anita stared at Crash as he began to explain to the police officers, but let him deal with it as she looked back at Thorn to answer his question.
"No, but we get all sorts of people at the shop." She'd never met Crash before, or really seen that many people with hair that red. Come to think of it, he was addressing the two of them. At least he chose to introduce himself when asking who they were, even if his explanation of who he was was... erm, interesting.
"My name is Anita Mariga; I've lived here my whole life. I'm an apprentice at the Basile Shoe Shop here in the city. Not as glamorous as you." She giggled a bit - that had sounded quite silly.

Most likely why his brain took sometime to process it, he did not do well with females in general. Anything but the dresses. "Ahh, Alright... " He then perked hearing Crash. Crash, what a fitting name even more so for that job.
"Mine is Thorn Darcy; I was born and raised here with my elder brother...Er mostly a freelance inventor here." he added in a awkward tone.

Crash puffed his chest in pride when that was spoken up, and it seems the police bought his little lie. Man he was good at it anyway! Besides, that vehicle needed to be moved even if it was a bit of ways from the explosives shop. Whateverrr.
"I'm not as loony as some people. Sheesh." Crash stuck his lower lip out, but then recovered from that temporarily moment of depression to grin at Anita and Thorn.
"Nah, everything's glamorous if you make it to be. Nice to meet you Mister Darcy and Miss Mariga." He'd offer his hand to shake. He may be hyperactive, but he certainly knew how to be polite. Sine clearly taught him SOME manners.

Whatever story Crash had come up with, the police had believed him. As long as he wasn't a public menace in any sort of way (outside of crashing unsuspecting vehicles into other things), he could do what he wanted and the devil take him. Aw, he was saying that he wasn't loony. Maybe he was right, maybe he wasn't. Anita giggled.
"Of course you aren't." Still, he seemed to be in a fairly cheerful mood, and both he and Thorn had introduced themselves.
"Nice to meet you too, Mister McGee, Mister Darcy." She shook Crash's offered hand, mostly out of politeness. "If you say so~. One day maybe I'll see how shoemaking can be glamorous."
So Thorn was an inventor, eh? Not too much of a surprise there, they were known for having a lot of inventors in the country.
