Sixth Bamf [Voice/Action] Dated to 25th

[wildbluevagner]

[Voice]

Hey, it's your homeboy Kurt here. Er, I mean... hey, Luceti. I'm just wondering. In whatever times or worlds you all come from, what is it that you do and say to be hip and cool? Just... curious, you know.

[It might also have to do with Billy giving him a wake-up call about his "lingo".]

[Action]

[Primarily for New Feathers or anyone who's occupying any house or apartment that was vacant within the last few months. Because there's an understanding in the house; to keep Rogue from complaining about fuzz in the shower drain, Kurt winds up teleporting into vacant houses and apartments to take showers.

So you may find an unexpected fuzzy man using your bathroom, unaware that someone's living there now. Can he flip his holo-watch on in time to hide his real form?

Otherwise at different points of the day, he can be found at the Battle Dome for morning training or at the item shop helping around.]

[To be fair, Elizabeth hasn't really done much to her apartment to indicate that there's someone living there. She keeps the sink area clean and tidy, and she has no real personal items to speak of aside from the small pile of books forming in the corner. By all accounts, it looks like a room ready to be moved into.]

[Surprise! It's not. And when Kurt comes out of the shower, Elizabeth is opening the door with a heavy book in hand, coming to inspect why there was water running in the bathroom.]

[For some reason, what she sees was not a reasonable explanation for the running water until now--she's reminded of the boy in her icebox. Only the boy in her icebox was less--]

OhmyGod!

[She jumps back and lobs her book almost as an afterthought. And then there's turning and blushing and-- Well. The boy in her icebox was less naked, for starters.]

[Action]

[wildbluevagner]

[He was just reaching for a towel when the door opened. Immediately he panics and gives his own yelp. And almost instinctively, he teleports himself several feet away - leaving behind a cloud of smoke and the smell of brimstone with - as he hastily covers his lower area with his towel.]

I'm so sorry!

[Action, Battle Dome]

[complicatedliar]

[As luck would have it, Loki is just arriving at the Battle Dome as Kurt is leaving. He gives the young man a polite nod.

Seems a good idea to at least be cordial with Rogue's brother, even if he has no use at all for any of her other friends.]

[Action, Battle Dome]

[wildbluevagner]

[He doesn't know how to respond. Especially now that he has some idea of what's going on - that this dude is with his sister. And he thought Gambit was bad enough news...

It's definitely not the first thing he wants to see after a Logan workout. He frowns slightly but manages a greeting.]

Hey.

[Voice]

[song_princess]

Homeboy? Hip and cool? [Color Leanne confused with those terms.]

Why does one need to be either of those things, Kurt?

[Voice]

[wildbluevagner]

Well, you know... to fit in and stuff! It's an important part of teenage life.

[voice]

[rashness]

Probably not sound like that! You sound totally lame!

[voice]

[wildbluevagner]

Oh, come on, you too? I don't think you get how cool I am, Rin!

[Voice]

[mybloodisblack]

...How do you act cool?

[Crona is fairly certain you can't change your body's temperature...Even with his blood he can't do that!]

[Voice]

[wildbluevagner]

You know! By scoping out what all the popular kids are doing and trying to follow their style. Not to mention their lingo!

( action. )

[inventings]

( Someone should Addie credit. When she hears the running water coming from the bathroom after she returns from a trip to the gorceries, she doesn't dump everything on the ground and grab a weapon to immediately attack.

Instead she sets the groceries away, grabs a weapon and goes to the door. Knocks on it smartly and loudly. She's no Josie when it comes to fighting so she has to hope whoever is in there(?) isn't eager to enact a horror movie classic. )

Excuse me, good person, but even us French know better than to just use the bathroom without first asking for the permission from the one who lives in the residence.

[Action]

[wildbluevagner]

[The water abruptly comes to a stop as the knocking starts. Kurt is quickly scampering for a towel; he can't just teleport away without his clothes and stuff.]

Sorry. Sorry! I didn't know anyone was here!

[action, item shop]

[handing]

[Though she and Tony are in the same house as they had been before, the fact that both of them returned home means the entire building has been reset to how it was when they first moved in. In turn, Pepper's been visiting the Item Shop fairly regularly, looking for basic needs and decorations, paints, tools--the bits and pieces necessary to turn the place into more than a blank canvas.

She hasn't seen Kurt since her own return to Luceti, and that had been a difficult conversation to say the least. But with Tony back now, her spirits are much improved, and she actually smiles as she goes up to the kid clearly hard at work.]

Hey, Kurt. I didn't know you helped out here.

[action, item shop]

[wildbluevagner]

[He smiles at seeing Pepper - now seeming to be in much better spirits. So that means Tony's most likely still in Luceti.

He's on his tippy-toes at first arranging some alarm clocks on a shelf, but he soon lowers himself to face her, briefly running his hands through his hair.]

Don't you know, Pepper? This item shop's a family business.

[Voice]

[winds_voice]

...I am not sure if I understand what you mean by being 'hip' and 'cool'.

[Voice]

[wildbluevagner]

You know - it's about fitting in! Following the trends, being popular!

voice;

[entreats]

[ .. Wait, what kind of question is that? Somehow Ange can't resist deadpanning at that kind of ridiculous thing. ]

Why exactly would anyone want to be "hip and cool" or whatever to begin with? Just speak however you want, I doubt anyone cares.

voice;

[wildbluevagner]

Hey, people care! I want to make sure I'm not sounding totally lame or anything, that's all.

[Voice]

[thisismylife]

It changes by the day, I think. I don't really pay attention.

[Then again, she hangs out with friends who model their lives after superheroes and old sitcoms. And don't even get her started on Robin's unique interpretation of the English language.]

I don't really think you have anything to worry about though.

[Voice]

[wildbluevagner]

Really? So you think I'm cool, Artemis?

[voice]

[noitatnacni]

I just do whatever feels natural. [And she happens to like Robin's version of English, so hush Artemis.]

I think its when people try too hard that it gets uncool. Especially when they're trying to force themselves to be something they're not just to try and be popular.

[voice]

[wildbluevagner]

I think I get you, Zatanna. [Especially when he himself may be guilty of it sometimes.] You can't force the cool. Sometimes you've just gotta let it happen.

[voice]

[selfhelp]

[...Oh Kurt, no. Man. No. Just. No.]

Seriously? This is what I come back to?

[He should have stayed kidnapped. 8(]

[voice]

[wildbluevagner]

What? I'm just getting some second opinions, man, that's all.

voice

[weaponry]

There's nothing really that's ever "in style" besides cool, flashy attacks. Cool is just an attitude to us, not anything you really want to be. But, what's not cool is being a goofy, hotheaded distraction for everyone else, [ coughleenarutochoujikibacough... ] or a sexist. [ coughpartoneshikamaru. ]

voice

[wildbluevagner]

Really? Tell me more about these flashy attacks...

[voice]

[dangerouswind]

If you have to ask, you'll never get there.

[voice]

[wildbluevagner]

Oh, come on! Give me a chance here!

voice

[fervidity]

What's wrong with just being yourself?

voice

[wildbluevagner]

You know, I hear that option gets lots of recommendations. [Except that he comes from a world where showing his true self can get him shunned.] But what if I can be myself in a cool way?

[towered]

is being 'hip and cool' important?

[wildbluevagner]

If you want to fit in with the popular crowd. And be the center of attention at the parties!

[Action]

[hero_of_smiles]

[Did he leave the shower on again? Must have if it's running.

Going to the bathroom, he's going to go turn it off when he opens up the bath curtain and then....

There's a naked fuzzy kid in his shower...

WELL!

There's a long awkward stare before he just slowly shuts it again leaves the bathroom and shuts the door behind him. OKAY, now it's safe.]

Mind telling me why you decided to break into my apartment?

[Action]

[wildbluevagner]

[A panic, a yelp and scampering for the towel.]

Does it count as breaking in if you didn't know you were doing it?

Voice;

[pinocchia]

Well I have never heard the use of 'homeboy' or 'hip' unless it is followed by the word 'hop'.

But I do not use slang in any case.
