Zwei - [Action + Voice]
[Kurt was on his way home from today's Brigade meeting, when he decided to opt for the shortcut home, teleporting to the top of building seven, appearing on the edge in a crouched position. or at least, that was the plan, until a surprised flaming mutant turkey suddenly lunged at him from nowhere.
This is surprising enough that he slips and falls off the building. Fortunately he quickly teleports the rest of the distance to the ground, landing with a thud on his back and his journal slipping out of his grip and opening up. For a moment, he stares up in shock at whatever that was until a moment later, it jumps down AFTER HIM and leans over him, inspecting the strange disappearing human.]
H-hey! Nice turkey! Trust me, you don't want to eat me, the fuzzy one doesn't taste so good, yeah?
[Anyone's free to see the events above unfold, or just find him afterward hanging out with the strange turkey outside of Building 7 until (or even after) Sapphire shows up to reclaim her Pokemon.]

No, I guess not.
[She pauses and stares a moment, as though trying to decide something.]
I...I look different, too. Well, sometimes.
no subject
You mean like... bed hair in the morning different? [... or did she mean like him.]
no subject
No....
[She glances around -out of habit- though the rooftop is private enough. After a moment of indecision, she steps back and transforms.]
no subject
You're like me! [He looks over her and then it sinks in she's no longer clothed and he looks away. If his cheeks weren't covered in blue fur, he'd be turning red.]
((ooc: refresh my memory, is she covered in fur in her esper form?))
no subject
Sort of...but I don't think you've heard of Espers, have you? I didn't sense you as one.
[And, point made, she doesn't want to make him uncomfortable. So, she reverts.]
Um, you can look back now.
no subject
Ahh, you didn't have to change back. Sorry, I was just... it was because you weren't quite ahh... clothed, you know? [But if she doesn't mind, he doesn't mind either. He can deal with that.]
no subject
I...can't really help that part. It just happens.
[One more reason not to show herself like that all the time.]
It's not exactly a secret, but I don't go telling everyone, you know? I want to fit in, too. And telling them what I am...I don't think that would make it possible.
no subject
I'm glad you showed me. It's good to know I'm not alone, you know? Even if you're not a mutant.
no subject
Well, it seemed fair. I saw you, after all. And...I'm glad that I'm not alone, either. Even if you aren't an Esper, or half-Esper.
My roommates already know, so it's not as though you can't mention it around them. As for anyone else, it...ah, depends. Though if you wanted to tell your friend that you met someone like you, I understand. It doesn't sound like she would judge.
[Which is her main issue, really, so without that obstacle....]
no subject
But uh, there is one thing I wonder...
no subject
What is it?
no subject
no subject
They're both real; neither side is an illusion. I'm half-human, which is why I can look like this...but I'm half-esper, too, which is why I can look...well, as you saw a moment ago.
no subject
[He turns on his watch.] I have to be so careful. If I grab someone, they can tell I only have three fingers. Or if they were to touch my 'skin', they would feel fur.
no subject
That must be difficult to balance, sometimes.
[She twists the end of her ponytail, thoughtful.]
...though I wouldn't say that I fit in, anywhere. I wasn't raised with Espers -mostly- and I don't understand humans that well, either. And...I'm really the only mix between them.
no subject
No? When I was growing up, the only people I could talk to were my parents. I had to hide from every one else because of... well, you know why. It wasn't until I received this watch I was ever able to make any friends. Before that... I could only watch people. But even though I might be blue and fuzzy, it's not hard to understand regular people.
no subject
I wish it wasn't for me. I think I've gotten better, but....
[She shakes her head, not really wanting to talk about it anymore.]
I'm glad you're able to make friends now, though. And I hope you meet more people that you don't have to hide your appearance from.
no subject
Thank you. I hope you do too. And... ahh, Terra. I know I'm not very good at this, but... there's nothing wrong with being yourself, even if it's different. And I don't just mean the way you look.
no subject
Thanks, Kurt. Sometimes I forget, but it's...it's nice to hear. It does help.
no subject
No problem! The Fuzzy Dude is always around to help. It's part of my power, right?
no subject
I guess so!
[Then she's a little saddened.]
I should probably go help more, with packing...but I'll see you soon?
no subject
See you later, then. [He glances at the turkey thing.] I still have to find its owner.
