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

[glaciers]

Sometimes there are spin-offs or one-shot comics that explore different worlds too. Or sometimes the old one will retire and somebody else picks up the name.

Sometimes they don't want to remember 30+ years of history. ... The total restart doesn't happen too often though.

[digthefuzz]

Man, those are a lot of complications to keep in mind! [He says with a laugh.]

It sounds like getting more into comics will be a real journey...

[glaciers]

It sounds more confusing than it is.

I can help you a little bit too.

[digthefuzz]

Dude, really? I'd appreciate it. I can probably use all the help I can get!

[glaciers]

Yes. [Why would he offer if he didn't mean it?]

Izuku could also help. He's good at explaining things.

[digthefuzz]

Izuku? [There is a glimmer of recognition at that name! Especially in connection with comics.]

Yooo, I think I know who you might be talking about! That little dude did know a lot about comics... Okay, I guess we might have one more friend in common!

[glaciers]

You know him too? Messy hair and freckles?

I've been helping him get in shape.

[digthefuzz]

That's him alright! We only hung out once, back when this whole Retrospec thing was just getting started, but he's a cool dude. He actually got me started on the Jokester!

Ooh, so you're gym buddies huh? Rad!

[glaciers]

He has good taste in comics.

We've been running on the beach mostly. It's good resistance training and it doesn't hurt as much to fall in it.

[digthefuzz]

[He nods.]

Ooh, now that's a pretty neat idea! And cheaper than a gym membership. I'll make a note of that one!

[glaciers]

It's not great for your arms unless you find heavy trash to move around. You can't really count on that.

[digthefuzz]

Heavy trash?! Man, I never would have thought of that! You're right, I guess that's one thing I can't count on...

[glaciers]

Like tires. Or metal bars.

I've only seen them a few times and we try to clean the beach when we see it.

[digthefuzz]

Oh! So of the less stinky variety. That definitely makes this sound a lot better! I'll have to keep my eyes open when I'm on the sand.

[glaciers]

Most of the trash that ends up on the beach is washed up. I hope people aren't littering.

[digthefuzz]

I sure hope not! I like to think the people here have more sense than that. I mean, it's not so cool that it's in the water to begin with...

[glaciers]

It's hard to stop people once they think it's supposed to be normal. I still wish they wouldn't.

[digthefuzz]

I feel you, man! They really should have paid attention to those afterschool specials...

[glaciers]

I wish they would... But with the way the ocean is, it might not have come from anywhere near here.

[digthefuzz]

Good point. But I mean, someone out there's still gotta be doing it. This whole pollution business stinks, big time!

[glaciers]

Pollution usually does.

[Probably a joke...]

[digthefuzz]

R-right! [He says with a light smile, as wonders whether or not that's supposed to be a joke.]

Um... nice talk, man!
