001 :// i'm tristan hello. see below for a thing about me. this blog will be slow and selective as i run other blogs (indirecticn, onlyathief) and work full time. you do NOT have to follow me here even if you do on other blogs!!! it's cool if your muse only works against some of mine and not all!002 :// i am 38 and will only interact with those writers 21 and above or for some exceptions, 18 at least. there will be nsfw themes, written word under cuts and not under cuts, and imagery. i tag as much as possible for the generic unfavorable things but you can ask me to tag something specific if you want.003 :// what i do not tolerate is transphobia, homophobia, racist, islamphobic or antisemetic bullshit. like i don't want to write with your hydra muse and i am not interested in your n*zi adjacent character, you know what i mean? genderbent muses are a hard pass. trans muses are a hard yes. and while i know there are call outs galore out there... just know that i will take the time to read anything presented to me and will make my own choice on the matter but if i don't know that someone is on your call out list don't take it personal. i'm old. i can't remember half the names of people i wrote with five years ago. you can privately approach me if need be, i am open to anything you need to tell me.

004 :// i love ships SO much, but take note that i do ship and write with only ONE kitty and that's noon's kitty over at katzchn. beyond that kurt is fair game and i am always okay with mutuals sending shippy memes. now if it doesn't work out and our chemistry isn't there then let it be, please don't force something on me. i will do my best to let you know if i feel something isn't working out and i am happy to work to find another way to make our muses connect beyond romance. I DO NOT SHIP KURT WITH AMANDA!! SEE THIS POST.005 :// speaking of the above i do write nsfw things and can do so to whatever degree my partner is comfortable with. meaning if you want it DIRTY fine by me, but if you want nothing at all, barely a hint? also fine! it's not a big deal :) you can also come tell me things specific you are okay with and those you are not (such as certain word usage and kinks ect).006 :// i am mutuals only. if i do NOT follow you back then i am likely not interested. it's not personal. i curate my dash and am always okay with you doing the same. if you do not want me following you feel free to hard block. if we are not mutuals you can send in OOC memes, but IC memes are reserved for those i follow back.

007 :// you never have to answer a meme i send or a starter i tag you in. i ask for the same consideration in return. if you drop a thread but then pick it back up like weeks later? totally fine. if you drop a thread and never pick it back up? totally fine. wanna plot a billion AUs? i'll do my best to keep up but i do work full time and it's a mentally draining job so please expect me to be slow as fuck lol.008 :// all edits of jonathan bailey as kurt are mine, UNLESS TAGGED/NOTED OTHERWISE. anything not mine that i use i tag as "resource" when reblogging it's source. but i spent a fucking long ass time making my icons and graphics so please do not steal them or use for your own kurt blog.HOWEVER, i am duplicate friendly and absolutely willing to give you the ps action set i use to make my own edits! i can show you how to do it and i am happy to help make some icons of your kurt fc if you want! i love all the other kurts out there!!!!! you are all so great!!!!!!009 :// im reading x-men new and old like crazy lately. i am most familiar with newer stuff, having gotten through fall of x and the like. i am about to keep going with that but i do not play a strictly 616 kurt. i play a headcanon kurt with a setting MOSTLY in a sort of mcu-ish world, because it makes it easy for a lot of people who DON'T know comic histories. however if you include certain events from the comics or prefer to ignore mcu things that is fine! i can adapt!!

• childhood

0-10:// kurt is born to irene and mystique, his mother irene impregnated by mystique in male form using several male gametes in the process unknowingly, including that of the demon azazeal.he is named petrus darkholme but this name is erased from the memories of his mothers, ultimately.there is a ton of Drama here where ultimately destiny maneuvers events, as she sees they must be, so kurt is given to his foster mother margali and mystique is telepathically mind-wiped to a degree to help with the loss of her son.he is named kurt by his new foaster mother and is raised and loved by margali despite his appearance. he is accepted by the circus folk, mostly, and is loved and loves his foster siblings dearly.10-15 :// the ringmaster of the circus begins to fear kurt as he grows older and stronger, and so he forces him to be sedated between shows for "his own good", convincing the boy he is showing agression due to his clearly demonic heritage.his mother is learning sorcery beyond her basic seer work in hopes to free him safely soon.he discovers his teleportation by accident and flees, tired of being sedated constantly and scared that the ringmaster would soon fear him so much that he would rather kill kurt than sedate him any longer. kurt takes refuge in a church and is accepted by a father wagner, a priest who convinces kurt not to kill the ringmaster when the man finally finds kurt and seeks to end his life.kurt escapes and worried about bringing danger to father wagner's door he flees again.

• teenage years

15-17 :// kurt lives in the shadows of bavarian villages, surviving by the gift of his power that allows him to hide among the darkness and get away with stealing what he needs to survive.often, when stealing food from a farm or home, he repays them by some physical task done in the dark of night. firewood collected and left at the door, barns cleaned and the like. the locals think it is the fairy folk blessing them and in turn word spreads and food is left out for these folk, allowing kurt to keep moving across germanic europe.18-20 :// he is 18 when things go wrong, when a village becomes scared upon catching sight of him and thinking him a true demon. it does not help that he has just killed his own foster brother, as he had been truly possessed and was hurting children in his state. kurt is nearly mobbed to death when saved by charles xavier, a mutant man seeking other mutants for his x-men.kurt joins eagerly, thankful and truly thinking it is god that has intervened just in time by sending charles.elsewhere in the world, tony stark says "i am iron man"he eventually meets future team mate kitty pryde when she comes to xaiver's school in her early teens.

• young adult

20-27 :// kurt spends time catching up on studies to obtain an american education and GED that allows him to do online schooling for general college studies at nyu while he works with the x-men.many adventures occur, including one that reunites him with his foster sister, who he has not seen in over 10 years when she finds him. unknowingly he dates her, thinking she is her alias "amanda sefton" but when she reveals who she really is they are well on their way to breaking up.during this time the avengers form and many more super powered peoples begin to make themselves known to the world.28-30 :// kurt finds himself in europe with a new team, including kitty, and they work with the british government on helping with supernatural and strange occurrences, some violent and some not. they call themselves excalibur!but they disband due the world wide incident known as THE SNAP.30-36 :// kurt returns to the x-men with kitty to help the team due to so many of their kind lost and the world needing them more than ever.at 36 the avengers save the world and reverse the snap.

main verse :// mostly mcu based, can be written at any point in his mentioned recent past if needed but ideally kurt is working with excalibur or the x-men.616 variant :// through whatever means we determine, kurt ends up in the 616 timeline and finds it difficult to get back home again. he seeks out the x-men here to get help.616 :// likely set during krakoa era, or during/after the uncanny spiderman runactor au :// seemingly human all his life and having been raised by his father and abandoned by his mother (the truth to that tale unknown to him), Kurt ends up on a different path entirely. Eton boarding school, Oxford drama degree, big-break into hollywood in his early twenties and an oscar nominated star by the time he is thirty....and then suddenly, his x-gene decides it's time to wake up.headlines everywhere ask where IS kurt wagner? tmz supposes rehab for some very well hidden addiction. his agents have no clue, but a newly transformed kurt wagner is now hiding out with those who found him via cerebro.will he ever return to the stage or the public eye??!BG3 :// kurt is a mutant tiefling and oathbroken paladin. you can read more here

main verse variant :// a generic mixture of comic canon, some mcu influence, and we all meet in the middle here on what is ultimately canon for us. this varies per partner.eros and psyche au :// with katzchn as kitty/psyche, built around the idea that mutants are revered as gods. mortals respect and fear them for the most part but as there are factions among these 'gods' there to are those that are fractured in the same manner among mortals. kurt, among mutants, is known as the nightcrawler, enforcer and assassin son of mystique. when a mortal, carmen pryde, causes upset with comparing his daughter to mystique's beauty he is sent to make an example of her.but what happens when he realizes she is also a mutant (even if she isn't aware yet) and there are laws against killing your own kind?also, he might have taken one actual look at her and decided it was fucking l o v e !!!single father au:// instead of being recruited to the x-men, kurt finds his happiness in remaining with the circus (aka, the worst shit never actually happened) and ends up marrying and having a family with a fellow member of the troupe.unfortunately when she is killed by his foster brother (while under duress and possession) he is forced to flee with his child when the local village turns on them thinking he was a literal demon and the murderer.recruited then by xavier he is invited to stay at the mansion with his daughter, talia, who is just turning five and learning she can run that school by herself with one little smile at any of the adults. how could YOU say no to that face??
