After the madhouse that was Los Noches, perhaps this wasn't so hard after all.
Of all the things that he remembered, Crowe remembered his skills as a tracker. It was the only thing he'd been proud of being alive, and it was the only thing remotely of pride that he still held on to. And in the possibility of any possible role he my hold, Crowe needed to use his skills to the greatest use. And thus, today (tonight? The maddening moon that hung above his head never changed) he strode forth from Los Noches to survey what he now knew as La Colonia. Much like Los Noches, during his time as a vagabond, he stayed away from any sources of life in the desert, resigning himself to a life of exile. La Colonia was no different.
But it still felt so wrong. Crowe kept his eyes on the ground as he made the approach to the colony, smoothing his rat's nest of a haircut over his missing, bone ringed eyesocket. It was just going to be a scouting mission for future intel, nothing more.
"Just slip in, take a look around, and slip out again, just like you did a hundred times." But, to be fair, that was four hundred years ago. And he didn't exactly have the capacity to practice tracking when he was a Hollow. A chill ran through the air, causing Crowe to pull his overcoat closer over his torso. For comfort, he gripped the blade that always hung from his waist. In a pinch, it always gave him willpower.
Before he knew it, he stood before the gates of La Colonia. Thus was the results of being in your head too much.
A quick glance told him that no one was actively guarding the gates - the smatterings of info he knew about that it was a mishmash of personalities, people from all walks of life and death. "At least... I won't stand out, I suppose." Crowe murmured, pushing the gate open. "There are probably dozens of Arrancar that call this town home." Those he had met at Los Noches had simply served to confuse him as to what he truly was, a monster or something more (or less)? Perhaps in the town, he could learn more. As he glanced around the entrance just inside the colony, Crowe swore under his breath as his hands automatically went to his overcoat's pockets. Old habits die hard.
Even after all these years, his first instinct is to sketch out the world around him.
