[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.]

( Cut for actiony stuff )

[After that, at the Rec Center, they'll just play some good old fashioned games. Kurt's pretty good at air hockey, but he soon discovers Rogue is waaaay too good at pool. Which leads to him trying to press his natural advantage as he BAMFS and hangs from the ceiling above the table, trying to make a very tricky while upside down. And wouldn't you know it, before he teleported, he stepped back on his school bag and knocked his journal out and open to start recording.]

--what do you think you're doin'?

What does it look like? I'm trying to make a shot!

That is cheatin', Kurt. Get your butt back down here. That is no way ta play pool.

It's not cheating! I'm still hitting the ball with the stick, yeah? It's totally fair!

Part of the game is working the angles from the ground.

Come on, that is so lame!" [He bamfs back to the ground.] "There's no way I can hit it like this.

Sure ya can. Ya just need ta work the angles an' hit the ball right." ... "An' loosen up on that stick. You're holding it too tight.

[Reluctantly Kurt gives in. He still needs to go over the balls, so while he aims with one hand, he steadies the other end of his pool stick... with his tail. Over his head.]

Kurt!

((ooc: Dual post in progress, so get your tags from Kurt and

touchofrogue. Hit 'em up at any of the locations or just do the journal thing if you want. For the Battle Dome, you can run into 'em before or after they play out the scenario (or just sit up in the viewing area and watch it.) Also, housemates and fellow Brigade members would probably already know it's his birthday, but not so much others.))

[Filtered from Haruhi (cuz he's late!)]

Okay, now that we're not all one big happy family anymore, other people have DVDs here, yeah? The SOS Brigade needs some help coming up with a rental store. Our own very Blockbuster or something. If we all put our collections together, we'll have a pretty good variety and be one step closer to staving off extreme boredom. So if people could just tell me what they've got, we can get a list together. [Feel free to just handwave what that list might be.]

... we also need a place to keep them and someone to run the place. Any ideas?

[That long, long overdue business aside, Kurt is now free to do his own thing. What might that include? Nothing too unusual. Hanging out on top of buildings, spontaneously BAMFing in front of pretty girls, chilling at school during lunch break or coming and going from the SOS Brigade meeting. If he gets bored enough he might just watch people walk around the plaza. Life in Luceti can get a bit dull when your life consists of just socializing and homework. Even if you do have DVDs back home. Too bad he's watched most of the stuff he has already and everything else is just not his kind of stuff.]

[It's been nothing but rain and gloom since Kurt was tossed back into Luceti on the seventeenth with a few injuries and an unusual interest in his adopted 'sister' Rogue. Some bed rest and food had brought him back to health, but seeing the sun out bright and shining helped has raised his spirits. Sure, it's still a very soggy looking Luceti out there, but some more sunshine should help fix that.

This means Kurt is back into his usual routine of things, teleporting or hopping from roof to roof, hanging out in trees, or catching the beautiful views from on top of community buildings. There's school and the Brigade... but he'll skip those today. He hasn't spent a few days sleeping just to go sit inside and listen to people talk about stuff. Ultimately, he can be found just about anywhere in the village or the outskirts of it, stretching his limbs and enjoying the almost-but-not-quite-Spring weather.

Later her makes a voice post... while upside down in a tree. It's not even that hard to see in the picture box, what with his hair hanging towards the ground and the upside houses behind him. It turns out skipping school and Brigade meetings makes for a pretty dull day and by the time he's missed both of them, he's looking for something to do. Good thing there's social networking tools for bothering all people in Luceti simultaneously.]

So I know being in Luceti is totally whack and mostly lame, but it's not always bad, yeah? I mean, even with messed up experiments and that crazy old guy who makes cool, fuzzy and blue people like me look bad, there's those pretty cool days. Like today's a pretty good one. So, anyone remember any other good times they've had here?

[Kurt should probably be weirded out that Rogue, of all people, is in such a good mood. But he's not gonna get him down, because it's Valentine's! And what's a blue fuzzy elf to do but go around and spread some of his holiday affection? This is why he's prepared a box of chocolates, a single blue rose, and a card signed Kurt Wagner for all of his special ladies. Incidentally, he has quite a lot of these. Aside from the ladies in the SOS Brigade, he also has them for Katara, Tear, Alexis, Winry, Mitsuru, Noel, and Tsubaki. He even did it for Elicia, because Kurt is a bro like that. ~~Sorry Buffy, you're CRAZY and get nothing.~~

Since Kurt is kind of a creeper and likes hanging out on the roofs and watching people walk around and go home, he was able to drop this stuff off at their homes, give a knock, and BAMF away before being caught. (Unless you really do want to catch them). Later he'll be hanging out at Good Spirits for some hot chocolate and so he can address the community at large.]

Man, this holiday must have some real magic around here, huh? Everyone seems way happier lately! Maybe everyone is just finding their true loves today. I bet it's going to be packed here tonight.

((ooc: first voice reply chronologically belongs to Mitsuru, even if you sneak in and beat her to it!))

[Kurt has some messages he needs to leave. None of them have to do with that Brigade business, because he's not really apologetic about people not liking his and Mikage's prank. Nor is he eager to fess up being in a girl's body anyway. However he does need to pass on some news about one of his team mates...]

I guess it's pretty obvious by now, but if anyone didn't know, Kitty's back home now. Which isn't fair, because I was totally here before she was! Pretty lame, yeah?

[It's obvious this happened long enough ago that it doesn't bother Kurt now. It doesn't hurt that going home is a GOOD thing and he's just disappointed she got to go home before him. After all, he changes the subject almost immediately. He's doing this mostly because of Anne and partly because Rogue endorsed it in her own way.]

So... does anyone here like acting? Back in Bayville, I was in a drama club, which was pretty cool. Anyone else into that kind of thing?

[Outside of that, Kurt is in his usual haunts. At home playing video games, hanging around on whatever roof he feels like being on, or DEFENDING THE ALAMO in the Battle Dome. Disturb as you will. If you're just doing something interesting out in the open, he may disturb you against your will.]

[Having already determined the village is full of people in the wrong shapes, Kurt wasn't all that surprised to find himself in a new body. Sure, the five fully functional fingers was new. And walking without his tail as a counterbalance was just surreal. And how on earth did people walk on their heels. No, really, the fact that really shocked him was that his entire body was monochrome. Sure, maybe his favorite actor had always been in black and white movies, but this was just... a little odd.

Nevertheless, he decides to set out and make good use of his new form. Particularly, of course, by going out and charming women with his oh-so-obviously attractive new (old) features. So if you're a pretty girl (and hopefully not too young), you'll have his attention. Or if you're just someone he knows, he'll want to show off. Later on, while having a drink (non-alcoholic!) at Good Spirit, he'll make a voice message.]

So did anyone else actually turn into something cool during this experiment?

((Replies from

monochromehero. Yes, he's now Errol Flynn. 4th wall that as you will.))

[Well, Kurt is at home with nothing to do. He's finished his homework, goofed off in the Battle Dome, and isn't quite up to crashing in on his friends and seeing what they're up to. Apparently that's annoying. So he has only one alternative - watch movies he's already seen several times or be entertained by Luceti's populace. Which means getting a discussion going. Something simple and mindless to talk about.]

Okay, so everyone. You're on a boat and it shipwrecks on a deserted island. You can only take one thing with you from home. What is it?

... ohh, right, and if you have any kind of superpowers that would get you off the island, those don't count. Or for making new stuff and- actually, yeah, no superpowers at all. Just stuff you bring!

[Even though he knows there's a draft going on and he knows a few people are there, he knows there's nothing he can do about it. Just like the infiltration, he's powerless to help. But, well, if the village is going to be flooded and they'll all die, he's not going to spend his last days hiding, not when other people are out there fighting.

Which is why he spends his day the same he always would. There's no school, with both teachers gone, but there's still the Brigade meeting. There's also picking up food at the store, hanging out at the Battle Dome, spending some time at the library, and hanging around the Rec Center to see if anyone shows up to play some Air Hockey with him. A perfectly normal day.

... except for the fact Kurt spends all of it blue and fuzzy. He may freak some people out, sure... and maybe some people won't recognize him, but enough people have already seen him like this. Might as well get this over with. ~~If he can keep himself from teleporting away as soon as people spot him, at least.~~]

((ooc: forward dated to mid-day, natch)

[Kurt has been four inches tall since yesterday. He is not happy about this and was staying at home to avoid people seeing him. But not today, oh no. He suddenly finds himself realizing he wants to do something new with his life. Specifically, today, he has decided he is going to be the greatest Casanova ever and become the greatest lover of all time. The fact he is tiny and easily missed and unable to wear his holo watch doesn't seem to bother him at all.

This means that anywhere around town, a tiny little blue elf is going to be appearing in front of the ladies and attempting to seduce them. Oh yes, he is going to hate himself for this later. As for you blokes out there... well, he's got a job to do.

Also, he's afflicted by random teleportation. Even his own is messed up! Whenever he teleports, he ends up in places... he didn't mean to be.]
