Re-watching First Class

[ihearyouthink]

Hey...it's alright. Alright, let it out.

[Handing his mun a box of tissues while she watches the beach scene again. Supportive hand on the shoulder as it were.]

Better than keeping it all in. You know it turned out okay in the end. And, if I may point out, you've still got two more movies to get through.

/tiniest little squeak

[shadowblends]

My mun says that yours should not feel bad because she cried, too.

It was ... well, rather emotional, but everything did turn out fine!

dawww Kurt

[ihearyouthink]

Would you believe it, she hasn't seen it since the cinema when it first came out. [Thoughtful] It certainly effected everyone...

And you, look at you. [grin] Though I probably shouldn't, she's been avoiding the third one.

dorky little muffin is a go!!

[shadowblends]

Really? Ach, that was a while ago! My mun is terrible and watched everything out of order. [Narrowing his eyes at said mun.

Although, his features are quick to shift, a wide, fang-filled grin of his own appearing while he does a little spin.] Should I hide? Maybe you could cover your eyes ...

[Mun says you should see it when possible because it is FANTASTIC.]

[ihearyouthink]

[Charles is doing his best to cover for his mun.]

She's....cautious. That's all. I'm certain she will get to it whenever possible.

[He chuckles, waving off the suggestion.] No, no. Never would I hide from such an incredible mutation. I happen to share headspace with your predecessor.... [wait] ...or actually, your successor? [Timelines. Bleh.]

[shadowblends]

Caution is important, ja! It will hopefully ... tie things up? [He's pretty sure that's not the correct use of words, but the effort is there.

Kurt's eyes widen in slight shock, though he's instantly smiling once more at the idea of there being another 'him' around and, of course, Charles talking about his mutation.] A successor or predecessor? Wunderbar! I've met another version, although he was older, taller, fuzzier ...

[ihearyouthink]

And so is this one. Older, taller, and fuzzier that is. Could be worse...

[Coughbaldcough]

Enough of that now.

[strikingblue]

[lifting a blue hand for a small wave from the corner]

...hallo.

[shadowblends]

Could be-- ... ahhh! I understand.

[Snicker.]

Okay, okay!

[ihearyouthink]

[Ahem.]

Less said about that, the better.

omg yeeesss

[shadowblends]

[Don't mind him just giving an excited little yelp and rushing up to examine the older blue mutant.]

Hallo, hallo! This is ... ausgezeichnet!

[shadowblends]

[Sorry, Charles; he can't help it, but at least he's covering his mouth to stifle his snickering. No, he's not laughing at you.]

I will say nothing!

[strikingblue]

[Oh dear, was this really how he was as a kid? He's maybe a little more reserved now but has lost none of his sense of humor.]

Ahh, vhe are like two blue elves in a pod, ja?

...vhat are you doing vith that hair? [Yes, that's what he's going to ask. It's all lopsided.]

[shadowblends]

[Yep! Easily excited, ridiculously curious and sometimes naive as heck. Eager to learn about everything, but still friendly and definitely German, so at least those are the same, too.]

Ja, we are! Ach, amazing, incredible!

... what's wrong with my hair? [He frowns slightly, lifting a hand to ruffle through his dual-toned bangs, tail flicking back and forth.]

[strikingblue]

[A matching fanged grin as he leans forward to flip those bangs into the boy's eyes.]

Nichts. It is different. [Opening his palms out in a gesture of a shrug.] Maybe I grow out of it later.

[shadowblends]

[There's another enthralled little noise, followed by a protesting yip when his hair is swung into his eyes.]

It's the eighties? [He adjusts his hair, copying the motion of shrugging, smirk widening.] Well, if we are one in the same, it would seem so!

[Kurt leans closer, vibrant yellow iris' scanning over the markings on the other's face.] They are the same! [Then, he moves a hand to end of his shirt and lifts it to show off the scars along his torso without a second thought because, well, it's technically himself, right?]

[strikingblue]

[Well, that's as good an excuse as any to have silly hair.]

[At showing him the markings though, a sad look passes over Kurt's face, one he can't completely hide.] Ja...dhe same.

[Maybe subject change.] Und dhis?

[*BAMF!* He disappears and reappears on the other side.]

[shadowblends]

[True, but he actually really enjoys his 'emo' look.

The distressed shift in the older Kurt's features doesn't go unnoticed; he frowns and says nothing, but lowers his shirt right away.

Yes, good idea.] Hmmm?

[In an instant, that trademark grin has returned. An equally loud BAMF and there's a slight stumble, though he's standing next to the taller of them.] Of course! Still perfecting it though.

[strikingblue]

[Applause for his younger self.]

Sehr gut! Practice, it makes perfect. Dhat is vhat dhe Professor says.

[shadowblends]

[And of course, he bows at the applauding.]

Ach, viel, viel! I try to practice every day.

[strikingblue]

[Clapping his younger self on the back.]

Dhen you vill be bettar in no time.

....


Und also, avoid dhis man named Stryker. [Kurt doesn't care about spoilers.] He is not a gut man.

oh man fjdsljgl;jfds;ls /NO. NO SPOILERS FROM THIS END

[shadowblends]

[If he could glow with pride, he would. Instead, his chest swells, hands moving to rest on his hips.]

That is what I am hoping!

[Curious head-tilt.]

Stryker? [OhmanohMAN. He raises a hand to his chin in thought.] I will keep the name in mind and do my best to avoid him.

aha I figured as much :p

[strikingblue]

[Covert whispering]

He nearly destroy us all.

[This is a bit personal for him but basically he's telling himself so it doesn't matter.] ...und I nearly kill dhe President.

ffffff x:

[shadowblends]

[Sneaky, ninja mutants.]

... what?

[He rears back slightly at this revelation, eyes wide and his mouth hanging open.] Nein, surely not! You ... we ... wouldn't, would we?

[strikingblue]

[He bows his head in shame before turning to show the small circle scar on the back of his neck.]

A serum he makes, vone dhat can control mutants. I...I could not stop vhat I vhas doing.

[shadowblends]

[The younger teleporter moves to look at the scar, eyes narrowing and fangs bared in disgust.]

Taking away someone's free will ... verachtenswert!

[Kurt's practically shouting the word, a low growl rumbling in his throat. Then, he relaxes a bit and lets his breath out in a hiss, reaching a hand to rest on his older counterpart's shoulder.] It was not your fault then.
