[Locked to Housemates]

[Kurt arrived none too gently in the middle of the night, lying in front of the fountain. His head was dizzy, but when he finally came to, he realized people were walking by him without so much as looking at him, despite his current state. He realized it was night time, but he was still stunned that they didn't seem to notice him. It was only when he waved his own hand in front of his face and realized he could barely see it that he became suspicious. After moving into the light, it was almost as if he was not stepping from the shadows, but front a literal blanket of darkness. It was almost as if the darkness made him completely invisible.

After making his way to the roof, he realized that everything around him was so much clearer. It wasn't quite like daylight, but he could see even into the dark alleyways with almost perfect clarity. Whatever the Malnosso did to him, it was weird. He makes his way home that night, not realizing an even bigger surprise is waiting for him.]

[Open To All]

[The next day when Kurt goes out, he does so with a pair of sunglasses on, in order to cover his now glowing eyes. He avoids the Brigade meeting on purpose (and will be doing so for awhile), instead settling for the mundane task of a quick trip to the grocery store. He's trying to avoid being spotted, so most of his travel will be done by roof top. For the sake of his friends though, he does leave a voice post. He's still wearing his sunglasses for that.]

Hey everyone, it's Kurt. Looks like I'm back. I'm just ahhh... a little under the weather, yeah? I'll be back to normal in no time.

[At least, he hopes he will.]

Comments

[bamfing]

Hey. [Oh wait. He said that already.] Do you usually hang out on roofs?

[makeitquick]

Usually, yeah.

[...] Nice shades.

[bamfing]

[Darn roofs. So popular.]

Oh. Thanks. It's kind of bright out today. [... nevermind the overcast sky.]

[makeitquick]

Yeah, pretty much. [Which is why she has some sunscreen on anyway. Despite the overcast sky. But oh well]

[bamfing]

[Wow, not getting called out on that one. Okay.]

Well... sorry for interrupting. I usually use this roof on the way to the stores.

[makeitquick]

Same. Feels more like home.

[In fact, she now gets on her feet properly. Walking on over to offer a handshake]

[bamfing]

It's easier to see where I'm going this way.

[Well handshakes on rooftops are weird, but he accepts it. Take a good look at that three fingered hand.]

I'm Kurt. [Since they're doing the greeting thing.]

[makeitquick]

[Oh she does. She's not quite sure how to hold it. But after he initial once over she just focuses on his face. Which looks silly with the shades, but whatever. If he's a radie he's probably got his reasons]

Melaka. Fig'd we oughta shake if we're gunna be roof-runners together.

[bamfing]

[Roof-runners, huh? She must have missed him 'port onto the roof. Heh.]

Fair enough. But I'm not an easy roof-runner to keep up with.

[makeitquick]

Oh yeah? I'm pretty good myself.

[bamfing]

I'm really, really good. [He's practically built like a monkey. It goes without saying.]

[makeitquick]

Huh. [Hmm... well, she can totally jump over to the next one over in two leaps - one to get on the lead and then swing up to it. She glances over there to confirm that]

[bamfing]

[He could do it all in one bamf, but that's not where his mind is currently at. He's more curious about what she's looking at.]

... are you wanting me to prove it?

[makeitquick]

...Just a bit.

[bamfing]

... well, I guess I could race you. [It wasn't what he had in his mind, but hey, it could be fun.]

[makeitquick]

Right. Where to?

[bamfing]

Top of the grocery store. [If he was in a more playful mood, he'd set some kind of conditions for winning.]

[makeitquick]

Spled. See you there.

[And... she's off. Leap to the next building over, and like she thought - two moves. Effortless. She can get there real quick]

[bamfing]

[Kurt jumps to the edge of the roof, leaps again to the center of the next where he lands on his hands, then pushes himself off into a somersault to meet her at the grocery store. Advantage: Melaka. Which is what Kurt gets for showing off.]

I wasn't exactly ready yet. [Unfortunately his somersault means he lost his sunglasses.]
