First Bamf
Who: Kurt Wagner and you!
Broadcast: Fleetwide
Action: On the Huntress!
When: After the Shuffle! (Pre-Shuffle Marsiva action is also allowable!)
[It's been a whirlwind day for Kurt Wagner. He was emotionally raw from a traumatic event when he woke up in space. Kurt had arrived on the day of the shuffle and had been doing his best to try to keep a low profile. People aren't always the most acceptable of a fuzzy blue mutant who looks like a devil, after all. And he'd managed to pick up the basics, at least, between what encounters he had on the Marsiva, while managing to be lucky enough to avoid the network.
His luck ran out once he was shuffled onto the Huntress. The video feed catches an unsuspecting Kurt Wagner tinkering with his watch and being increasingly frustrated with it as he keeps prodding at it.]
Come onnn.... Why won't it work? Oh man!
[ooc: Of course, if any other new characters want, they can alternately run into him before the Shuffle, anywhere on the Marsiva. Choose your own adventure!]

[Like... any time, really. -- and Zuko thinks for a moment, trying to figure out how to answer that question -- ]
I came from a city called Adstringendum, but that's not my home world. I'm from the Fire Nation -- or, I was born there. -- I rule it now.
[SUCH INSPIRING CONFIDENCE right he's new at this]
no subject
...Are you really telling me that you rule a place called the Fire Nation? I bet you just like telling tall tales. That all sounds fake!
no subject
It's not fake, and I'm not lying.
[Zuko decides to prove it in a totally mature way by suspending a ball of fire between his hands.]
I didn't second guess what you told me.
[Don't be rude. >:c]
no subject
[But he does look interested by the ball of fire. ...But not like it's anything new to him.]
Cool fire, bro! So you're a mutant too. I get it now. [He must be one of those lying liars who would be right at home with the Loserhood.]
no subject
[A bit flatly, but Zuko has a great deal more patience now that he's spent three years in Adstringendum and he's had to explain this like fourteen bajillion times.]
I'm a firebender. We're not from the same universe. We don't have blue people.
[Pause.]
-- there's nothing wrong with being blue, we just don't have blue people.
no subject
You don't know that for sure! I'm, like, one of a kind. And until recently, I've been a well-kept secret.
Firebender... Is that like some kind of a gang? [That explains the scar, and why he looks like a jerk.]
no subject
It's... It's a gift that some people are born with. The Fire Nation has benders and non-benders -- there are earthbenders, waterbenders, and airbenders, too. -- well, an airbender. I'm sure there will be more later. Maybe.
[Idk Zuko doesn't know Aang's personal life.]
And we're not a gang, we're... a nation of people, but we have a bad reputation because of... a few bad people. We're trying to get better about that.
no subject
Still sounds a lot like mutants to me. ...Except there's usually not a bunch of people with the same power.
A whole nation, huh? Alright, fine, I'll try to believe you.
[He melodramatically bows to the video feed.]
Anything for His Majesty, King Zuko!
1/2
don't do that
pls]
I'm not a king, I'm --
no subject
[pls]
There's no... you don't have to do that.
no subject
Then it's nice to meet you, Just Zuko.
no subject
Hilarious.
no subject
But, um, thanks. For not asking stupid questions. [And letting him be the stupid one.]
no subject
[HEY ZUKO WHAT HAPPENED TO YOUR FACE it's so annoying.]
So there's no point in asking them when I probably won't understand the answer. Or care.
no subject
I mean... I bet people ask you about your face all the time! [He says in a slightly questioning tone.]
no subject
I'm going to let you slide because you're new and Sokka was an idiot.
[ said with the patience of someone who has literally no patience ]
no subject
no subject
[ kurt no ]
no subject
S-so, what do you do for fun...?
no subject
I don't have fun.
[ it's said in such a deadpan that it's almost guaranteed that zuko is joking
OR IS HE
the world will never know
mostly because he doesn't tell strangers about his life you never know who wants to kill him ok ]
no subject
Is that it? Is that the sentence?]
You're just pulling my tail! Everyone's gotta have fun!
no subject
[ ??? ]
no subject
We all have our tails to tell, Zuko.
