Bingo/Other June Stuff Catchall! [OPEN]

[digthefuzz]

WHO: Kurt Wagner and Yooouuuu?!
WHERE: All around town!
WHEN: From July 3rd onwards... pretty much a catchall for the first half of the month
WHAT: Kurt's adventures as he attempts to fill out his bingo card and also has to deal with having a weird power, different from the weird power he was already getting used to.
WARNINGS: None yet, will update if necessary

A. You Know the Rules

[Kurt Wagner goes door to door, with a fancy-looking book of lyrics in hand. And he's also wearing a Santa hat. Because might as well go for full ridiculousness, right?

He'll knock on pretty much anyone's door, whether he knows them or not. And once they open? He'll sway in imitation of Rick Astley himself and begin to sing.]

We're no strangers to love...
You know the rules, and so do I!

[Yes, of course he's singing "Never Gonna Give You Up". Except that he's singing it in a style that actually sounds more like this song.

Of course, your character doesn't have to be the one answering the door. They can join if they want! Or try to file a complaint]

B. Classic Rock

[Kurt has made his way out to the lake located within Recolle Woods. And he's ready to practice some stone-throwing!

He picks up a rock with a smirk and tries throwing it right at the water! ...Except it proceeds to sink in without bouncing once.

After a few similar tries, Kurt groans and pulls at his hair in frustration.]

Aw, c'mon! It's always so easy on tv!

C. Role Models

[Even with all of the running around he's doing for this damn bingo game, Kurt still makes time for his first modeling photoshoot. And so, one morning you can find him outside a building in Tisse where modeling shoots happen. For once, Kurt is dressed in clothes that seem genuinely trendy, and he's even wearing a belt! But as the shoot's time draws closer, he looks at his reflection in his iphone and frets loudly]

Oh man, oh man... Come on, Kurt. You can do this. You can do this!

D. Wildcard

[Have something else in mind, or want to use Kurt for some different bingo slots, or just want to use some set-ups from the event log? Kurt can turn up pretty much anywhere around the city, so feel free to come up with a prompt, and/or contact me if you'd like to plot something out! My plotting comment is here and you can also find me on plurk at goreo!

I will also include some starter comments for some of the pre-plotted bingo squares and other any other closed prompts!]

Comments

For Dave

[digthefuzz]

[By Hollingberry Field's swimming pool, Kurt is standing around in his swim trunks and with a pile of pool noodles he has amassed. In many cases, he has had to bribe children to surrender noodles with free autographs.

But now, he looks over the pile of pool noodles, confused about what to do next.]

Okay, now... What can I even make?

[parodeity]

Depends, dude, what are you tryin' to make?

[ dave, for the record, is in jeans and a long-sleeved shirt. and his shades. why this. ]

For Minako

[digthefuzz]

[After the pool noodle construction project is complete, Kurt wanders elsewhere through Hollingberry Field with a jump rope in hand. He wonders who he can ask to play with him... and then he manages to spot someone familiar.]

Hey! Minako, right?

[complementing]

[As for Minako, she's cooling down after a run, but she straightens at the sound of her voice, offering a grin.]

Hey there! That's me. I haven't seen you in a while, Kurt. Still killing all the monsters in Beast Hunter?

For Yurio

[digthefuzz]

[Kurt set himself up on the boardwalk with a pair of unnecessarily colorful roller skates, fully ready for a race!

He ended up choosing his opponent seemingly at random; he sent Yuri a message through Retrospec challenging him, and then he waited on the boardwalk near an ice cream shop, the designated rendezvous point. Luckily he's had some practice roller skating back on the show since one of the sponsors wanted product placement of roller skates like the ones Kurt wears right now, so he's a bit hopeful about his chances!]

[catsudon]

( the benefit to where he works is he has deals for the other two entertainment establishments, meaning when he shows up with roller skates, they're generic and cost him absolutely nothing. Yuri would have preferred roller blades, but he hadn't been asked, which is why he's hauling around shoes with twice as many wheels as they really need.

he lifts a hand to make a half assed wave at Fuzzy, lifting his skates off his shoulder to show them like some testimony to his being here for an agreed purpose. )

Ready to get your tail kicked?

( Fuzzy = tailed, rather than... anyone actually having a tail. Yuri grins, glad for a focused excuse to compete in something stupid he also feels like he could win. probably. he's only roller skated a few times, but it's not hard to balance, and he's got all these... unrelated skills that should translate! at least one percent. )

C

[thesettingsun]

[Shuji may not be participating in the modeling shoots, but he has his thumb on the pulse of modeling in Recolle, he certainly knows where the shoots happen. So it's easy to guess why someone is standing nervously outside the building.]

First time modeling?

[He doesn't particularly have anywhere to be, besides 'figuring out how to fill out his bingo card'.]

[digthefuzz]

[He turns over towards the other person sheepishly.]

...That obvious?

C

[scarlet_devil]

Quite so, Kurt. I know you've got the confidence...

[ Émilie gives him a smile, confident as ever... Hopefully this confidence will rub off on him. ]

Think of it as, hmm, posing for a family portrait.

[digthefuzz]

[He does manages a light smile as he scratches at his head.]

A family portrait, huh? I feel about one sweatervest short of feeling that effect... [Kurt breathes a laugh.] Do you really think I can nail it?

A

[glaciers]

[He's pretty sure this was also on his card but he wanted nothing to do with it.

So he'll just squint at Kurt in his doorway and try to place where he knows this guy from...]

You're on the app...?

[digthefuzz]

[Kurt nods in response to that. ...As he continues to sing.]

A full commitment's what I'm thinking of.
You wouldn't get this from any other guy!

I just wanna tell you how I'm feeling...
Gotta make you understand!

it's gonna be superheroes

[missmaladroite]

Oh... hello.

[She notices Kurt, the teleporting nerd she once had a little (wink) adventure with, and waves, making her way over to see what he's up to.]

Don't tell me you've got a bingo card.

[digthefuzz]

[Oh, well if it isn't his old friend, the captain of the SS Skateboard Deathtrap. And one of the few people who have already seen his powers and still remember it. Since she mentions bingo, he knows for sure that she must still have the app.

After that weird first encounter, Kurt's intent on selling how cool he is this time around. So as she speaks, he offers a shrug and responds sly.]

Fine then, I won't tell you that.

For Eleanor

[digthefuzz]

[Around a week after the bingo cards begin, now that Kurt has gotten back the power that's supposedly actually his, he feels that it's time to take part in that one square of his bingo card... To show off his power to someone new.

He wasn't sure what to make of being able to teleport. It was... weird and scary. Could he really consider himself to be a human like this? Jade had her own similar power, and she seemed to accept it with her normal happy-go-lucky ways, but then she forgot everything. So Kurt didn't know what to think anymore.

Still, he figured he should at least try to show it to someone he's known for a while. So he texts Eleanor and asks her to meet him in the woods. He'll just chill there, trying to maintain a low profile as he awaits her.]

[notyourutopian]

['Hey meet me in the woods.' the message had said. And if it had been anyone but Kurt, she would've said 'Ha ha that's alright I'm not schedule to be axe murdered this week' but...well. It was kurt.]

[So there she was, tromping into the woods in a pair of jeans and a light jacket, her bag over her shoulder, boots crunching in the summer grass.]

Hey. [She called out as she spotted him, raising a hand in greeting. And then she grinned a bit as she got closer.] Just so you know, I left a note at home about coming out here so if you axe murder me everyone is totally going to know it was you.

[She was kidding. Right? Right...?]

B

[long_live_the_queen]

[You know what else sinks like a stone? People. Especially when they're bellyflopping into the water with absolutely zero grace.

Lucy had been...frazzled, let's say. All day. The teenager had run off to the woods to get some quiet space to think, and—weird, was that a stone hitting the water? Where was that coming fr—

No sooner did the idle curious thought appear in her head than Lucy left the ground again, reappearing over the surface of the water with a little bamf noise again.

Not so little was the splash. Or the shouted cursing.]

[digthefuzz]

[...Well, that sure is a person falling into the lake suddenly! Good thing Kurt manages to stop himself from accidentally pelting her from a rock.

The noise and the smoke captivate Kurt's attention more than anything. That's... that's his! There's no mistaking it. He never thought he would miss it this much. Does she have a similar power, or...

Kurt tries to shout into the lake.]

Hey! Um... Are you alright?!

a

[vitis]

[ john, none the wiser, answers the door.


he doesn't know what he expected, but this was not one of those potential expectations. however, he does remember seeing a similar prompt on his bingo card... when there happens to be a lapse in kurt's singing: ]

Wow. Gotten a lotta practice with this one? [ or else john's door was just... a really, really random choice ]

[digthefuzz]

[Kurt finally stops, thinking he's song enough of the song.]

Um... Yeah, I guess I have! It's not the kinda song to give up on, after all...

a

[chargebomb]

[ the apartment door is opened by some red-headed kid, hello. he just stares at kurt for a moment, totally unsure what is even happening. ]

... Are you trying to literally rickroll people, dude? [ he's trying not to laugh, though. ]

[digthefuzz]

[He goes through the chorus before he stops to answer.]

Not trying - succeeding!

D- ARRIVES FIFTEEN MINUTES LATE WITH STARBUCKS

[feistytrader]

[So he needs to steal a retrospec item, and this seems like as good an opportunity as any to teach his Totodile how to be an excellent partner in crime. But who's a good target?

Kurt. Kurt's a good target. He's been around retrospec for a while, so he has to have something, right? And he probably won't get him arrested. And he's got some weird thing on his wrist to boot.

He sends Totodile off ahead of him, then goes right up to Kurt, and-]

Hey, is that an apple watch?

[digthefuzz]

[Clearly he has the most responsible priorities in mind

Kurt was just wondering along, and trying to think about his next step in his bingo conquest. But then he gets stopped by his former water chauffeur and weird crocodile owner. He offers a friendly smile, though he's confused by the question for a moment until he holds up his wrist and sees what he's talking about.

It was a weird watch that didn't show the right time, and he really wore it just because it looked cool. And wearing a watch just makes you look more presentable!

He answers the other boy with a soft laugh.]

Not exactly, my dude. [he taps lightly at the watch.] I have no clue who made this baby, but it came straight from the 'spec!

wildcard!!

[parodeity]

[ so, one of dave's multiple part time jobs takes place at enchanted blossoms, the flower shop. he's assistant manager.

...he also seems to be just mindlessly playing a phone game as he waits behind the counter.

what do you do next, kurt? ]

[digthefuzz]

[Mr. Bigtime Assistant Manager. Or perhaps assistant to the manager?

Kurt thinks that Dave will be a chill enough target. And this could be fun! So it's pranking time.

He slides up to the counter, with a bottle of apparently apple juice in hand, smiling like an innocent babe.]

Yo!
