Kurt Meyer
Let Me Push That Button
Kalinda University
[member="Sebastian Thel"]
There were very few things in the Galaxy that Kurt didn't like.
He generally had an open mind about pretty much everything. Food, Starships, whatever. He would try anything once. Yet as more time was passing, as he was spending almost every waking hour with his nose in a book or studying for some class...he was finding he really really hated school.
It was hard.
Annoying.
But worst of all Kurt was absolutely awful at it. He knew it too. He was constantly calling up his father or Jamie, he was up all night trying to solve one simple problem that took everyone else five minutes. He had absolutely no talent for any of this. The best respites that he got where the brief moments when he had a lab class or free time in the engineering hall. The stress was wearing on him, pressing in.
Still, he knew he'd done the right thing.
Even as he sat in the huge outdoor garden of Kalinda University cradling yet another book he knew that eventually all of this would come to some sort of pay off. What that pay off was Kurt didn't quite yet know, but he also didn't care.
A shrug rolled over his shoulder, and then suddenly he noticed a girl running through the garden. Her eyes were half bugged and she looked like she was about to trip over herself or something. "Hey!"
He called out to her.
"What's going on?" The girl didn't answer, instead choosing to keep up her sprint. For a moment Kurt didn't do anything, then with another shrug he picked himself up and headed after her. It was time for a break anyway.
