Room 229 - Wednesday Afternoon

[guillermothegreat]

So Kurt had handwavily told Guillermo about the issues that he had sleeping in his bed and had asked about the possibility of swapping it for something more suitable and so Guillermo thought that while they were doing that they could also work on officially finishing unpacking and setting up their room.

Guillermo had unpacked his clothes and things like that away in his wardrobe but the really important stuff - like his action figures and posters and all of his movies and tv shows and books needed to find the perfect place to display his collection.

“Our room is going to be awesome when it’s finished,” Guillermo grinned as he surveyed the room, he got out his duffel bag that had all of his geeky memorabilia with him so that it was ready when they were able to get to that part of decorating their room.


[Kurt modded with permission! Expecting the aforementioned roomie but can be open if anyone wants to see the two geeking out over decorating their room]

Guillermo’s eyes were wide as he watched Kurt appear and reappear, “that was amazing,” he breathed and then he focused back on Kurt testing the hammock, “oh that’s good, hopefully it will be more comfortable for you to sleep now,” he told him with a nod.

[furrybluefreak]

"Definitely should, thanks for the help!" Kurt sat up and nodded towards Guillermo's side of the room. "Need a hand.. or tail... with getting thigs set up over there?" he asked with a grin.

[guillermothegreat]

“I definitely won’t say no,” Guillermo grinned, “I do have quite a few to go up,” he indicated the posters that were spread out on his bed.

[furrybluefreak]

"Point me in the right direction and give me a job!" Kurt said with a grin as he jumped out of the hammock.

[guillermothegreat]

"Well I was thinking that the movie posters could go in chronological order of release date and all the vampire posters could go together," Guillermo grinned, "so if we start with Nosferatu from say the space above the bed?" he suggested, "what do you think?"

[furrybluefreak]

"Sounds like a great idea" Kurt agreed with a nod. "Can start there and work around your side of the room until we run out."

Kurt looked at the first one then turned back to Guillermo.

"You want me to hand them up to you?"

[guillermothegreat]

“That would definitely be great if you could do that, thank you,” Guillermo said with a grin.

[furrybluefreak]

"Sure thing! Here you go!" Kurt said as he handed the first poster over and got the next one ready. "So, how long has it taken you to collect all of these anyway?"

[guillermothegreat]

"Thank you," Guillermo grinned as he started to put the poster up, "well when I saw Interview with the Vampire I got my first poster then, so I was quite young when I saw it ... so its been about seven years or so that I've been collecting movie posters," he said.

[so sorry I thought I replied to this!]

[furrybluefreak]

"That is so cool!" Kurt said as he glanced over the posters that were out so far. "I've never been able to do much as far as collections and whatnot. Most of the time it was me and my Vati and Mutti" he said slipping back into his native tongue for a moment. "We lived in the country so it was just us most of the time. Us and the animals."

{and no worries at all XD }

[guillermothegreat]

"I've never been in the country before, Fandom was my first time properly getting away from the city," Guillermo told him, nodding and then he tilted his head curiously, "what kind of animals did you have back home?"

[furrybluefreak]

"Couple farm animals mostly. We had a cow, some chickens, and a couple of goats" Kurt said before breaking into a small smile. "The animals I loved the most were the wild ones. I'd go out into the woods, and I guess because I didn't look like other people, animals weren't afraid of me."

[guillermothegreat]

“I never got to have any animals or things like that,” Guillermo told him, “I live in an apartment with my mum, there’s a strict no pets policy,” he said, “but it sounds nice being out in the country like that,”

[furrybluefreak]

"It was. Though it also was a bit lonely" Kurt admitted.

"I was never able to be around other kids for... obvious reasons. It wasn't until the Professor found me and I started at the Academy that I was really around a lot of other people. I had been on my own for a few years but it was hard when you can't fit in."

Kurt gave his friend a slight smile, figuring Guillermo understood that.


"Hey! Maybe we can see if there's a no pet policy here in the dorms!"

[guillermothegreat]

Guillermo nodded sympathetically, understanding what Kurt meant about not being able to fit in.

Then Kurt mentioned about finding out about the dorms pet policy, “ooh, that would be great, I saw that there was an animal shelter in town as well, maybe we could explore that option if we’re allowed pets?”
