[The journal clicks to life - shaky at first, then clearing up to show Ellie's excited face.]

Oh man- is this what used to happen during Christmas? The whole surprise-gifts-under-the-tree or whatever... it's kind of late, and yeah, there's no tree, but--!!

[She turns the journal around to show her sparsely-decorated apartment at first, and then, when she fixes it, a big, box-style arcade machine, the game title of "The Turning" splashed across the front in faded letters. It looks kind of beaten up, but not in too terrible a condition.]

Does anybody know about this game? It's supposed to be so cool, I heard all about it from a friend back home. I can't get it to work, though... they're supposed to be plugged in, right? It's in the middle of the room, so the cord won't reach anything.

Can somebody strong come over and help me move it? I wanna give it a try! ...And if it doesn't work, would anybody know how to fix this kind of thing?

[He takes a look down at the outlet as if investigating it with a trained eye.]

Yeah, that looks like your standard plug alright. [And he gets up, snapping his fingers together with a confident smirk.] Alright! Now, get ready to watch the magic happen!

[He steps forward, hugs the front of the arcade... and then there's bamf. Kurt and the arcade, in a cloud of smoke, are now right in the blank space by the plug.]

Voila! [He's ready to take a bow, now.]

[Now he wags a finger, mock-scoldingly.]

Tut tut tut. You must watch your language, young lady. Still, was that the coolest thing you ever saw or what?

[Kurt still couldn't help but sass, even if he's likely heard similar language from even younger kids in the area.]

The top five, high? [He says with an amused eyebrow raise.] I'm glad I made it right up there already! Of course, it'll be hard for me to top myself now.

[He wags a finger in the air.]

Nope! This power's all natural! It's the kind of thing you're born with.

[He does freeze up at hearing that. That word had only been brought up in this world by people he already knew or who were from a similar world. Hearing it from a stranger... It made him uneasy. That question can often easily precede a reversal of opinions on him.]

You're right on the money. [He runs a hand through his hair nervously.] That's me.

Oh. [He's flustered by the sudden approval and rubs at his hair.] Yeah... you bet! It's one of the most convenient ones you can hope for.
wildbluevagner: (holo - good)

[He does grin at her compliments. And then he takes a step back as the game comes to life, startled but quickly excited.]

Whoa! Awesome. It lives!

Alright! [He leans over to get a close look at the action.]

Trial and error sounds like the way to go! That's how I learned the Frogger and Miss Pac-Man!

Loads of fun! And they're classics. You're really missing out.

[He keeps watching with some interest.]

It'll be for your own good. Now what's going on here? [He keeps watching the game.]

[And now Kurt is getting way into the game himself.]

Oh man! Try... try the Konami code! Up up down down left right left right B A!

It all happened so fast! But I think one of the ones you hit was that one. [He says as he points out a button.]
