Kurt Wagner

[digthefuzz]

[ooc: Some memories involve endangerment of a baby as well as death/murder for someone made out of stone. Most of it's what you would find the TV Y7 show, but let me know if there's anything you'd rather avoid!]

[You find yourself in a rustic living room, and you know automatically that you are somewhere in Germany. Despite this, the only window shows a view of a part of New York known as Bayville. It's a cozy room that contains pieces of other rooms: a kitchen, and a studying area.

The study area is a bit of a mess. There's a desk there, with an open backpack slung over the chair. There's a bunch of papers that seem to be blank along the surface of the desk, along with a bookmarked Bibble and what seem to be a few trading cards bearing the image of one Captain America. And hanging over the desk is a banner for Bayville High, but it seems to have been torn.

The kitchen area is where you'll find Kurt himself, as true and blue as ever. He's wearing the casual clothes pictured in the icon, complete with shorts sticking out. Kurt happens to besitting at a table and chowing down on a number of junk foods, from burgers to hot dogs to chips. There is one burger, specifically known as a 'gut bomb', waiting on one lone plate for any visitor who wants it. Some muffins lay ignored entirely in one corner of the table, however. Also lying on the table is the watch that Kurt usually wears. A close look can show how high-tech it actually is, and there's a number of buttons that are just waiting to be pressed. Kurt himself will seem to focus on his food, but his eyes will follow the path of any visitors curiously, and he will speak if spoken to.

The actual living area seems relatively simple, if dirty. There is one table that has some photos on it. The most prominent picture frame bears version of this picture, but it looks like there's some blank space for more people on it. There is also a heart-shaped picture frame, but it remains empty at the moment. There's also a record player set up, but with no sign of a record. And there's a very old tv with an antenna, but it is displaying only static.

The floor itself is also quite dirty. There are some scraps of paper littering the ground, as well as a number of what seem to be pieces of stone. In fact, the pieces seem capable of fitting together.

Finally, there's a small closet off to the side. The door is ajar, but it emits an very ominous feeling. If someone approaches it, Kurt will set down his food and look very alert and concerned.]

[alwayscomeback]

[There is one thing that can endear someone to Sokka for the rest of their natural lives. And that thing is to offer him food. Sokka's been wandering the house, but the sight of that delicious, wonderful food is enough to bring him right to the table to sit down, staring at the Gut Bomb with unabashed food-lust. ]

Dude! What is this? It's...it's beautiful.

[digthefuzz]

Say hello to the breakfast burger gut bomb.

[Kurt smirks slyly as he says that between bites of his own food. Any annoyance to Sokka is forgotten in the face of this common bonding ground: food. Then he gives a soft, knowing shake of the head.]

I'd be wasting my time describing it! Just trust me and let your taste buds tell everything apart!

[If Sokka does eat the gut bomb, he will love it, even if some aspects of it clash with his personal tastes. That's because he's not actually eating it; he's experiencing Kurt's own memories of eating them and loving them.]

[alwayscomeback]

[That is a thing of absolute beauty, and he is gonna eat it. It's pure grease and meat, of course it's the best thing in the universe.]

This....this is th best thing I've ever tasted in my life.

[digthefuzz]

You're right on the money, dude! Radical! [Kurt flashes a thumbs up. And... there will always be another gut bomb waiting on the plate whenever he finishes one.]

[resnipstance]

[Ahsoka takes her time studying the room silently for a moment. Of course she's been in civilian homes before, but... this is something on another level, really. For Ahsoka, whose room at home comprised solely of a bed and a chair, this room seems impossibly cluttered, and she's slightly taken aback. How can it be possible for one person to own so much stuff?

She doesn't touch anything at first, just sort of stands there and turns in a circle, admiring the clutter in open-mouthed awe.]

[digthefuzz]

[Feel free to take a look around. Kurt's watching with a friendly smile from his seat at the table.]

So, what do you think?

[resnipstance]

Is this... all yours?

There's so much.

[digthefuzz]

[He laughs.]

Yep! More or less.

I guess you don't have a whole lot of stuff... Is it a Jedi thing?

[catamite]

[Nel has no knowledge of either Germany or New York, but he at least has the sense of displacement that might go along with something like that. the whole thing is a little disorienting, and most of the elf's surroundings get kind of glossed over as he turns in a slow, confused circle, trying to take it all in.

...but then he spots the blue guy in the kitchen, and all of the food he's surrounded in. and a direction suddenly becomes clear.

edging closer, he puts on his most apologetic smile.]

Oh, um... Sorry if I'm intruding.

[digthefuzz]

[Said blue guy provides his answer between bites of a burger, while wearing a generically friendly smile.]

No way, man! That would be bogus.

Make yourself at home!

[catamite]

[Nel will take generic friendliness any day. a lot can be accomplished with that. like, oh, say mooching a meal, for instance.]

You're sure? I'd hate to bother you during lunch... [or was it breakfast? maybe dinner...

either way, he does go ahead and take a seat, despite seeming so hesitant.]

[digthefuzz]

Dude, don't sweat it. [He shrugs and remains looking utterly casual as he takes a seat.]

I was bored, really. [And he'll welcome anyone who doesn't immediately judge him for his appearance.]

[versusnurture]

[Some stubborn part of her wants to go for the closet, just because it's daring her not to. She doesn't, though, for a number of reasons, foremost among them the fact that this isn't her first room of the night and she knows on some level that psychological exhaustion is making her much more likely to make stupid decisions.]

[Instead, she goes for the record player, because it's the most familiar thing here, and because it's probably the first thing she's seen in one of these rooms that actually makes her smile. Which she does at Kurt, small and a little shy, as her fingers trace the edges of it.]

Do you know how to waltz?

[digthefuzz]

[He glances towards the new visitor as she overlooks the record player. And he smirks sheepishly at her question, answering between bites of his food.]

Not exactly... I'm not too great at the fancy stuff.

But I do know how to boogie!

[versusnurture]

[How to boogie.]

[Damn him, that's really cute. She's grinning now, tipping her chin up, a little challenging.]

Okay, so prove it.

[digthefuzz]

[Kurt gives his own smuggest smirk in return.]

Ohhhh man! I hope you have an appetite, because those words are going to be your breakfast!

[With that, he leaps up and starts going through some very embarrassing dance moves.]

[thatwhichyields]

[Phedre did not know this person, and could not know this room. But these situations continued to feel like a dream, in a way where nothing was as alarming as it could be.

The amount of food might be slightly startling, however.

Phedre approaches the table, more out of curiosity than anything else.]

Hello, my lord?

[digthefuzz]

[Kurt chuckles slightly in between laughs and waves to the latest visitor with a friendly smile.]

Yo!

[thatwhichyields]

[She smiles back, and gives him a nod of greeting.]

Good afternoon. May I join you?

[digthefuzz]

Sure thing! Pull up a chair, make yourself at home!

[He gestures towards the empty chair.]

[mikangirl]

[...okay, this place is kinda in need of cleaning. Nami wonders if there are maybe dream maids, and she gives a faint snort, moving through the place. She sees the photo of Kurt before she sees Kurt himself-- at least she assumes it's him. There's not a lot of blue-skinned people around these parts, is there?

So she calls out before she gets to the kitchen, trying to keep her hands to herself.]

Kurt...?

[digthefuzz]

[Wow, rude! Kurt peers over from the table with a smirk.]

Nami, is that you?

Welcome to my crib!

[mikangirl]

Ah... yeah. Thanks. [She smiles a little; kinda worn out by all these dream-travelling shenanigans, but at least Kurt is easy to talk to.

Oh, well. Heading kitchenwards!] You've got a-- nice place here.

[I'm being polite, dude. GET A VACUUM CLEANER.]

[digthefuzz]

[Wow rude, you're not his mom!!

Kurt just keeps chilling and eating.]

Thanks! It's my parents' place... but with more of a 'me' touch, you know? Make yourself at home!
