“the gas leak in august? we’ve not figured that out yet?” it sounded detached, but jamie hadn’t realized how much so. the place he had lived was attacked and, truth be told, jamie had left that up to the locals to figure this one out. it was a local event and there were more than enough active vigilantes here to figure it out. he didn’t mean for it to sound as pointed as it did either, and hoped kurt didn’t taken we’ve not figured this out yet? as you haven’t figure this out yet? he didn’t mean for it to sound that way, but he knew with his tone, it could have been taken that way. “yeah- i’ll come along.” 

“If someone has figured it out, they’ve been awfully quiet about it.” Which seemed unlikely. Surely if someone had figured it out, they’d inform the rest of the town to provide some comfort over the situation. “I think most people are opting to forget and try to move on in between each shitty thing that happens around here.” Kurt couldn’t really hold it against them. Having a somewhat normal life between everything was probably a lot better than what he was doing. “In all honesty, I think I just lack the experience to put it together any faster.” The mutant had never given heroics any thought until a few months ago, making him vastly inexperienced compared to some of the other hero types around Paragon. “Thanks though, I appreciate it.”

”I can’t let you go in there.” Halvor says as he crosses his arms over his chest, gaze looking down at the other. “Give me one good reason WHY.”

“Seriously?” Kurt didn’t go out much and truthfully didn’t want to be out right now. He was only here following a lead which made it all the more annoying to be turned away by the bouncer. “I’m meeting a friend inside to celebrate his new promotion and it’d be pretty shitty if I didn’t show up.” He lied.

professionaltrouble‌:

“-and I just wham. Right to the nose. I think I broke it, to be honest. But he totally deserved it. At least, I thought so. You’re with me, right?”

“Honestly depends on the situation.” Kurt has only been half listening to the story up to this point. “I don’t really support senseless violence.”

“ if you’re gonna come in , just come in , but don’t hover. ” she’s standing with her back to the door ( well , the space where her door should be , whenever they come around to install it. for the time being , it’s just an empty archway , which allows for way too many unwanted visitors ) , but she still feels a presence approaching her. “ i hate hoverers , just pick , either you’re in or you’re out. ” she’s setting up the final touches. hanging up her diplomas , placing a few pictures on her desk. STARK CONSULTING is finally a reality , and basically ready to start welcoming clients - as soon as that door is put in , of course. “ so , what’s it gonna be ? ” she finally asks , letting go of the frame she was hanging on her wall and turning to the door.

Per usual, Kurt stubbornly stayed where he was despite her words. He developed the habit of remaining in or close to exits shortly after his powers emerged as a precaution. The mutant made significant progress with time, but the gas leak and mist had clearly sent him backwards. But he wasn’t here to reflect on that. “I’m just here to say a quick congrats.” He wasn’t entirely sure where he stood with the Starks now, but it didn’t stop him from being civil to the family he grew up around. He paused, looking at the door frame he was standing in. “You should get a door, might help with your hover problem.”

antdadjoke‌:

by the tone on the newcomer, scott can tell they’re really trying with this. granted, it’s not the most sane thing to do, watch over ants, but he appreciates the effort from — he looks up and oh, that’s one of cap’s kids. his son. scott wonders for a panicky second if the kid remembers him. even though he and cap have worked together for years now, he still doesn’t feel like he’s part of the team, like he’s even an acquaintance of them. so, he focuses on the ants instead. “it’ll be fine. they can self-correct. see?” he gestures to the line of ants which is already reforming, almost not noticing the interruption. and, while he’s down here, he asks, “oh, can i pet your dog?” 

Kurt’s eyes fell to the ants once more, carefully watching their movements this time. “I never really paid attention to them before. I guess I’ve missed all the interesting things they do.” He tried again before his attention turned to his dog who was patiently standing beside him. “Oh yeah, of course.” A rare grin spread across his face now that the subject had shifted. There were few things that could lighten his mood no matter what else was going on, and his dog was one of them. “I wouldn’t hear the end of it if he didn’t get some attention while we’re out. He likes to act like he doesn’t get any attention at home and he’s not incredibly spoiled whenever we’re out.” His smile remained as he shook his head at his loyal companion.

❝ i know what you’re going to say. ❞ she deserved it, really. ellie has been told time and time again that there is a time and a place, but even if she isn’t biologically related to him, she takes after her father. ellie’s always been a spitfire. that’s why she’s here now. waiting to be picked up after another afterschool detention. ❝ it was dumb. to get so mad about such a small comment, but i just… ❞ her bad moods sparked her symbiote’s bad moods, and when wrath got it in her head that ellie needed help, that was that. ❝ i’m sorry. thanks for picking me up. ❞

“I was just going to say you woke me up from a really nice nap.” He commented lightly. Normally Kurt was one of the first people to give lengthy lectures, but he was a bit more sympathetic in this scenario. Although he forced himself to outgrow it, there was a time he was a highly emotional kid prone to all sorts of outbursts. “Since I didn’t get to finish said nap, I’m going to leave the lecture up to someone else this time.” An attempt at a joke to lighten the mood. “Yeah, no problem. Let’s just try not to let it happen again, okay?”

“oh- i’m sorry about that. just let me move some of this,” he responded, nervous and speaking way too fast he hurried to move his belongings closer to himself. when blake had arrived at the coffee shop, he’d been alone, and he’d taken over a rather large table in order to spread out his work. but as the need for space increased, he relinquished some of his table. “there you go! it’s all yours!” 

“You can take your time. It’s not going to kill me to stand a little longer while you move your things.” While Kurt had a reputation for being easily annoyed, this minor inconvenience wasn’t enough to get under his skin. The mutant raised a brow as he sat, “What is all this anyway?”

❛  so i was pulling out of my parking spot earlier today ,  and was stopped out of nowhere by a cop . said i was driving recklessly or something . ❜ portia shook her head , taking a sip from her drink .  ❛  i’m starting to think he just has a problem with woman . especially ones behind the wheel . ❜

“You’d think they’d have better things to do.” The annoyance was clear in his voice. Kurt spent last night dealing with several petty criminal just to hear some of the cops around here were wasting their time with bullshit. “I mean, it’s not like Paragon has developed a serious problem with crime or anything.” He added with thick sarcasm.

“well…” she didn’t really know how to respond to such niceties. her go to wasn’t great, “you better?” though she did phrase it like she was unsure, because, well… she was. maybe this was the exact sort of motivation she needed. unhappy as she had been to be involved, as she looked around at all they had left ( plural, because she was recommitted ), the thought of how she was doing something pretty nice by staying and helping warmed her heart, some. sure, she was SUPPOSED to be helping without complaint, but… but still. “we’ll be out of here in no time. mark my words - i can be, like, totally speedy when i wanna be,” yeah, she was being hopeful. could you blame her? “hey, man ; sleep is still the preferred option, here, even if it ISN’T much better.  you not getting enough elsewhere?”

Kurt found her response a bit strange, but it did manage to get a slight laugh from him. “Guess I lucked out for a change.” Perhaps there was hope for catching up on some sleep yet. The thought brightened his spirits, making him easier to converse with than normal at least. “You’re not wrong.” He casually agreed with a shrug. “Not really. I might have overestimated how much time I actually have in a day, so instead of dropping some of my commitments, I’ve just said fuck sleep.” Partially true. He did take on much more than he had the time for, but it wasn’t the only thing keeping him up. It was hard to sleep when each new incident here filled him with unease. “Admittedly not my smartest decision.” Certainly not his dumbest either so there was that.

ircnborn‌:

“kurt…” she wanted to offer something better than a sorry. it wasn’t just the phone, really - the smoke that snaked up from what had once been a phone cleared, and she realized who it was, and she…- felt like, maybe, she should be offering something that sounded more somberly sincere. sorry didn’t cut that. “let me replace it,” she urged, eyes glued upon him even while her hands moved, expertly taking apart the glove piece by piece until it was little more than scrap, “please.” 

His expression softened the way it always used to in private moments between the two. “It’s okay, Morgan.” The phone, their history, all of it. Believable or not, that’s what he told himself every time he saw her instead of acknowledging the dull ache in his chest or his feelings that had yet to fade out completely. “I really was planning on getting a new one soon. It would have lasted a week or two more at most.” He dropped his gaze back down to the hole in the table. “You seriously don’t have to do that. It’s okay.”

Morgan laughed. “It’s certainly a thought. Solving problems rather than avoiding is advice people often given out. I’d suggest it as well. She said. “Clearing your mind is, yes, probably very helpful with that.”

“Like most things, easier said than done though.” And like some, he seemed to have a hard time taking his own advice. “It beats impulsively making decisions at least.” Something that hadn’t paid off well for him in the past.

Have you even been platonically in love with someone? Like, you wouldn’t necessarily date them or kiss them or anything like that, but you just love talking to them and their presence just relaxes you and makes you feel safe and your whole world gets a little bit brighter whenever they’re around? Because those are honestly my favorite kinds of relationships.

Helena hadn’t been getting much sleep herself, her sleep plagued by nightmares since Theo was attacked and they only worsened after Christmas. She survived mostly on coffee nowadays. “Sleep is overrated. Try power naps instead.”

“As overrated as it is, I’d still like to get some more.” But that would require him to drop some of his commitments, which wasn’t something he was willing to do. “I guess that’s just what I’ll have to settle for. I’d say coffee too, but I’m pretty sure it does nothing for me at this point.” He lightly complained.
